Celebrity calls

You guys, Sandra Oh from Grey's Anatomy just called me. At first I assumed she was calling to discuss the fact that I called her character an insult to women. Or maybe she'd seen my commercials and just wanted to say how much she liked them. But instead, in a very rehearsed voice (she is, after all, an actress), she urged me to vote no on the AFTRA prime-time television contract. I guess even big stars value my opinion - after all, I've been a SAG/AFTRA member for over three years!

When she was done with her spiel - during which she never let me ask a question or even interject an "mm-hm" - I thanked her for calling and said that I thought she was great in Sideways, and you know what she did? She hung up on me. I guess she was pretty mad about my Grey's review after all.

Sandra Oh sounds like a real Alexander Payne in the Sideways.

"No, Sandra Oh, I'm not interested in switching my long distance plan."

This is Sandra Oh...Oh is it? Heh.

I just couldn't get into Grey's Anatomy. It's not Sandra Oh's fault though.

Maybe she just had to get back to her customer's nails.

Was that bad? Should I not say things like that?

Same thing happened to me?! But, it wasn't Sandra. And, they didn't want me to vote on AFTRA. Well, I guess after all it wasn't really the same.

Liked your story better! :)
