How I Spent My Monday Evening, By Susie Q

Edited on Tuesday June 24th: Just wanted to tell all of you who really love Mr. H, he was a so nice. The store had announced no personal pictures but he said he would be honored to pose with anyone who wished it. He looked fantastic. It is so hard to believe that this man is 78! He was dressed impeccably, smelled good and had a firm handshake. (Oh how I hate a man who shakes a lady's hand limply!) He was funny and intelligent and it was a pleasure to hear him give his talk. Oh, and he said I had a "lovely smile". Can you say, "Over the moon"? I think you can. I met his wife as well. Terribly attractive and sweet, she spoke with me and the family I had been in line with for over 3 hours. She seemed shocked that we knew who she was. I had seen photos of her with him over the last few years...a lovely lady. He says he has officially retired from acting but would direct more and continue writing. It was such a fun experience! Just a quick post. I have more to share and more photos from the last few days but, for now, I wanted to pop in an say howdy. Here is a little photo from earlier this evening. Oh, just 2 time Academy Award winning actor Gene Hackman and me hanging around a book store. Now, don't look at the 14 chins on me...just look how tickled I am to be standing next to Mr. French Connection himself!

More soon...till then, take care and be happy, just like old smiley Susie Q in this picture!

See how little it takes to delight the old girl?

Love and Hugs,

Susie Q
