Before I said hi to him I walked outside and called up one of my best friend&#8217;s Jasen Carr who had taken me to a Padre game this past season and who knows everything about every sport. (He is even an expert on the WNBA! -yeah, this guy knows everything) So I asked Jasen about Trevor Hoffman and ofcourse he knew, and he told me that he was now a free agent and was deciding whether or not to come back to San Diego depending on his contract.<\/p>\n<p>So now with a little extra knowledge, while we were waiting for our Rubio&#8217;s food, I went and said hi to Trevor and said that I hoped that he stays in San Diego. He was really nice and said that he really appreciated what I said and that he hopes to stay in San Diego too!<\/p>\n<p>It was just a cool moment. I love crossing paths with celebrities.<\/p>\n<p>This year started with running into Tom from the band Blink-182. I got to talk to him for a little and give him our new cd at The Naked Cafe. He was rocking out to it as he drove away. I was stoked.<\/p>\n<p>Then we ran into Britney Spears at The La Costa Resort &#038; Spa. She was very pregnant but flashed us a nice smile as she walked by, looking kinda lost actually. <\/p>\n<p>Got to listen to Trump speak, after sneaking into a conference while my brother was doing a story for KTLA. Jaime got a personal interview. <\/p>\n<p>Ofcourse, my brother Jaime meets a couple celebrities a week. I even saw him interview Arnold Schwartsanegger (I don&#8217;t know how to spell his name) That was hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>We had dinner next to David Spade in Los Angeles while celebrating my brother&#8217;s birthday by accident, and now running into Trevor Hoffman was another pleasant surprise.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I don&#8217;t know what it is about famous people that gets me excited- maybe it&#8217;s the energy they create from living such unique lives. They really put themselves on the line. I guess that&#8217;s what I like about meeting them. I know that they are the type of people who go for it.<\/p>\n<p>Hope to talk to you all soon,<br \/>Thanks for checking in.<br \/>Thanks for your e-mails. <br \/>(I realize that even though it says that you can comment on these blogs- you really can&#8217;t until you sign up for an account yourself and it is definitely kind of a pain to sign up so I don&#8217;t expect anyone to.)<br \/>Just drop me e-mails like you&#8217;ve been doing all along, I love hearing from all of you!<br \/>Thanks! <br \/>&#038; Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy Hannuka, Happy Holidays, Happy New Years and all of those other holidays that are in there somewhere. If we keep adding Holidays, we won&#8217;t have any normal days left!
