Alec Baldwin wouldn't get between me and my sandwich

Okay, chalk this up to random and weird, but also "New York." As in only in New York would this happen, and also not just happen, but be kind of the norm.

I was in NY visiting Aaron over Labor Day weekend, and one day I'm starving and want a corn beef sandwich, we look around, decide on Zabars, and while I'm unwrapping it to put on mustard, Aaron leans in and tells me Alec Baldwin is sitting right behind us. And it was true!

He was obviously out for a run or something and was talking to tourists at the communal counter. I snuck some glances without trying to be obvious and then we went outside to eat. Standing on the corner I'm all "I can't believe we just saw Alec Baldwin! How cool! Does he have any Emmys? He should! He's hilarious, I love that show!"

Then Aaron turns and I'm all "What?" and Alec Baldwin is right behind me...with his bike. "Oh, uhh, I was just saying you should have some Emmys..."

Alec Baldwin: "I thought you were going to die if you didn't get that sandwich..."

Me: nothing clever, and weird mix of embarrassment and pride, hells yes I can eat a sandwich!
