YAY! He's real!  Are any of your mutual acquaintances people you could trust to not go blabbing when you casually enquire who he is? |

EVERYONE working in that office is a big mouth! From the Student Affairs administrators and advisors to the secretaries, to the officious professors, to the students working in the office. Wait. Sarah who runs the Arts Outreach is trustworthy, but I'm not sure if she knows who he is... Oh goodness...  I'll let you know how it goes, though.  |

No, I don't... I imagine it's either Pygmalion or The Fall. They're the only plays that are going on around this time. Of course I'm going to watch both of them! I have to know who he is!

Oooh, that's so romantic! I definitely think you should find out who he is, even if it is just so you can get a picture of him to show us here on the boards!
If he is in Pygmalion, I wonder if he is Freddy? That would be really freaky, because Freddy is a kind of stalker, in a romantic way, who is obsessed with Eliza. It sounds like he could be the type!

I think his name is Jason, but I'm not sure. I had to ask my friend in the theatre dept, and I'm afraid that my description was pretty vague:
"He's about yay high [holding my hand about a foot and a half above my head], really dark, blackish hair-- pretty short. He's also really skinny... surrounded by the girls, everybody thinks he's hot."
to which Brian said:
"Tall, skinny... Face is kinda gaunt? Wears glasses every once in a while?"
I said: "Yeah."
Brian: "I think Michael [different than the previous Mike] is right. It's probably Jason."
So it this is the guy, he's been in "The Laramie Project," "The Waiting Room," "Shakespeare's R&J," [it's not the 'Romeo and Juliet'-- it's about 4 Catholic School Boys] "The Maids," [OMG!] and "The Women." And, if it is him, he's about to be in "Pygmalion," "The Fall," and "As You Like It."
If it's not Jason, his name could be Paul [which I doubt, because they say he's balding], Richard [OMG!] who has performed in half of the above productions, or Christian [double OMG!] who's been in all of the same. There is a chance that he might be a Henry... but the Henry that came up in conversation is a first year... the guy I'm talking about looks to be AT LEAST a 3rd year [like me].

I agree with Lizifer- maybe you should talk to him? After all he was asking about you, so you should just go say hi or something.

I talked to my music advisor about the guy, and he agrees with all of you... that I should go and talk to him.
He thinks that the sleepy haze that turned him into a ghost for me was a sign that I should be talking to him.
But that doesn't explain why he was staring at me... or why I felt something touch my forehead.
How do I come up to talk to him without sounding psycho? "Hi, my name is C___. I'm sorry I've been running away from you lately, but I thought you were a ghost. Has anyone ever told you how much you look like this character from a book... or that actor who played the villain in the last Harry Potter film?" I think he'd be the one running away from me if I said that. Or how about this: "Hi, you're hot. When I first saw you in plainclothes, I thought you were the embodiment of a character that I wrote. If I turned it into a screenplay, would you consider playing the guy?" Or this: "Excuse me, are you related to Christian Coulson?"
Oh, I forgot to tell you guys... he has a hint of what I think is a nice Hartfordshire (did I spell that right?) accent.
I'll talk to him, if you guys can tell me what to say that won't sound completely psychotic.

OH WOW, I didn't log on for a day, and the developments have gone this far! I agree. Walk up to him and dazedly ask, "Henry Winter?" Then look at his reaction. If he reads Donna Tartt, and says something like, "Don't tell me you're Camilla", run away. Hm, maybe stick around and start the conversation from there. However, if he doesn't read Donna Tartt and he goes, "Huh?", just tell him something like you thought he's Henry Winter you knew and haven't seen in a long time. If you go out of your head, tell him everything, that Henry Winter is the character you've been obsessing (?) over and you thought that the moment you saw him you thought that you were simply hallucinating , therefore, the reaction (you're fleeing AWAY from him? Oh dear  ) MAybe at that point you'll see what kind of stuff this Jason guy is made of *SIGH* I wish something like that would happen, I haven't had a heart attack in almost a year! Well, a heart attack in THAT sense though... |

This guy just SIGNIFIES strange occurrances for me. Something ELSE happened tonight!
I was burning a CD in the Music Library (in the basement of the Arts Building). They have an old Philips burner, so it was taking forever. So anyways, there's an open stairwell right outside the library and basement lobby that leads up to the Arts Building courtyard. So, a friend of mine and I wanted to have some fun... seeing as most people have left campus (after 5pm) we figured we could have some silly fun. So we were blasting some showtunes. (He burned a mix of Miss Saigon, RENT, Phantom, Les Mis, etc.)
So anyways, we took a portable boombox out into the stairwell to start singing showtunes. So, "Light My Candle" from RENT starts playing... so I start singing Mimi's part. Suddenly, this great male voice chimes in as Roger from the courtyard/quad. It was kinda cool. And we had a tiny audience from the second floor. Then we sang "Sun and Moon" still not knowing who each other was. My friend who was working the Music Library tonight came out and told me that my CD was finished (it was a Machaut Mass for class). I went in, collected my belongings and ran up the stairs. Another of my friends (from the theatre dept) came up to me and told me "OMG!!!! You were singing with Jason H___! That was f-ing amazing."
The other friend said, "You just missed him! There, you see that guy that's running to the field? With the red baseball cap and the mitt?"
And he was several yards away. Certainly out of hearing distance. Sigh! I don't know why this is happening. Perhaps Ethan's right. I'm being sent signs from the divine.
I'll try that Henry thing, though. Oh gosh! I also found out that he's straight today and most people think that he's available. Hmmm.

My friend Rhea has agreed to introduce me when the opportunity arises. Now, I'm not even sure if my "ghost" is Jason H__v__. I'm only 60% certain.
I'll try to get a picture of him-- but how do I do that? "So, Jason. I've been telling a bunch of gals at the Christian Coulson message board about you, and they'd like to see your face. Would you mind terribly if I took your picture and plastered it on the web?"
I think I'll try taking pictures of the "As You Like It" performance, though.
