Meeting an Australian Celebrity

I was very excited today! I happened to have the day off for some tests at the hospital. I got done by lunch time and remembered about a book signing at Borders Bookstore. For any Australian readers you will obviously know of the TV show Master Chef. It was the top watched non-sports show in Australian ratings history. Damien and I watched every episode faithfully. For non-Australian readers, Master Chef is kind of like Top Chef. A contest reality cooking show. Anyway, one of the three judges was named Matt Preston. He is an internationally known food critic and quite a flamboyant personality. He has just come out with a new book and was here in Brisbane for a signing!!
I was the fourth person in line. I got to shake his hand and chit chat for a minute. He picked up on my accent right away and asked where I was from. It was quite a thrill!!!
