Welcome, welcome, Deedeemac!
Tell us all about you!

I live in Michigan. Have a teenager who drives me nuts. I've had a knee and hip replacement due to injury and osteo arthritis.
I had married a Canadian who was orginally from England 3 years ago. I moved to Windsor Ontario Canada and my teenager stayed in Michigan to finish her school semester, I came back every few days to check on her and hshe stayed with her dad. Immigration Canada messed up and dropped my daughter from
our immigration application.
My papers came through and hers did not. We were told my hubby could not sponsor her again and there was nothing that could be done. Her dad took up drinking so I have rented a place for her in Michigan,
and come check on her often. But its more expensive than I can afford.
My hubby got mad about me having to pay for a place for her and spending so much money traveking back and
forth. He said its me or you daughter. He wanted me to just abandon her, so I had to leave him and come back to Michigan. He turned out to be a bad stepdad. I was going to try to get he in on a student visa,
but shes met some idiot of a boyfriend now and won't leave. I hat the Detroit Michigan area and want to stay
in Windsor Ontario Canada. But I can not afford a place for me in Canada and her in Michigan.
Shes moved the idiot boyfriend in while was away this weekend.
the mother of a girl my daughter went to school with died, her dad got afew drunk driving tickets and was running from the law. My kid moved him and his kids in a few weeks ago when I was in Windsor.
When I came home
I had to make the dad leave and pay to fly the kids to their grandmas in Seattle. I still have their cat.
I'm willing to fly the cat to Seattle, the say they want it, but they live 2 hours from the Seattle airport and can't drive to the airport to get the cat. Guess I'm suppose to find away to get it to their door step.
I'm tired of my teen, my 1st ex her dad, my soon to be ex hubby.

I love the films and plays of Alan Rickman. My dads parents were from Scotland and they had a love
of literature and acting so I've always loved Brittish Drama and Comedies, which are hard to come by where I
live. I watch anything with Alan in it on youtube. Hes the greatest actor of out time I believe and is underrated.
He worked hard to get where he is. He always takes on the most interesting roles and gives them
such a depth of character. He has a voice of velvet and is the most sexist man on the planet.
I wish he could be cloned!

I just maxed out my credit card to attend the Minghella film festival. Alan was there for a brief
period. I flew out of Toronto Canada because it was cheaper. My car had been in the shop for 3 days before I left because the engine light was on. They said they fixed it. Well I crossed the bridge into Canada and the engine light came on and the car dies. I had take a shuttle van to Toronto, 6 hours, then the flight, 6 to 7 hours. then rent a car and drive to portsmouth and take the auto ferry over to the Isle of Wight.
The hotel I booked was over a bar and had a steppe dangerous staircase so I could not stay there. the place was a dive, so at midnight
I had to find another hotel, ended up at the Travel Inn. My room was cold and someone was yelling in the room above. I asked and got my room changed. So I was exhausted on friday. I felt like I had a cold coming on so I bought and took some paracetamol, I got worse head swimming and all. had to sew up side of my dress, it was older and the seam had come undone. I did not notice it needed sewing till I was getting dressed on friday.
I sewed it up, got to the cineworld, drank 2 glasses of wine. found out next day I was allergic to paracetamol,
thats what made me feel worse and even though it did not say so on the package I shouldn't have drank wine with it. So I was in no shape to meet Alan. hope I did not make an idiot out of myself. crowded there.
I heard later some of the potter fans were not over respectful and may have grabbed Alan ass while taking a picture with him. Wish I would have gotten a pic with him. got an autograph and will be paying this off on my credit card for a long long time. Stayed for the reat of the festival. Now I see here the next night he was at
the Simon Gray Tribute the next night. If I would have know I would have gone there instead.
on my way to the airport to leave I found out that Bottle Shock was playing at local threaters,
I could have seen that on the big screen, UHG! I wish I would have know more about Alans schedule
before I went. I thought it was the change of a life time as the Minghella tickets were cheap and it said Alan was hosting. He only stayed for a short time. I stayed a few days after that but did not speak with Alan again.
I did see him walk by near Paddington station three days ago, I just came back yesterday.
I think the info I found on the web a few weeks ago about him being in New york for a while is wrong
as he seems to be in the U.K.
Nice to meet everyone!
