I actually think that it's great you didn't talk to him. I think celebs probably get tired of being approached, so when they're doing something like grocery shopping, I'm sure they appreciate their private time. Good on ya for giving him his privacy (though I'm sure he would have appreciated the props for Castle) when a lot of people wouldn't have thought twice about approaching him.

Oh, and welcome to the board :)

Many many welcomes! I agree, I think it best that you let him have his space…I was reading some of his blogs from his Myspace page a few months back, and he seemed like a guy who liked to have his space. I didn't even do a friend request–after Firefly, I'm sure he's had his fill of fans who want to make contact with him. But that's SO cool that you got to see him! If I ever see anyone famous, I imagine I'll probably just gawk at them with my eyes bugging out of my head, frozen to my spot lol. But then again, I suppose that works…if they know why you're reacting like that and decide to make your day and give you an autograph, then great! But if they just smile and walk away (or worse, grimace) then you at least didn't bug them. 

Answer me one question, though…how tall is he? I know he has to be pretty tall to beat out Stana in heels, but I've just always been curious. (I don't have to ask if he's as cute in person as he is on the screen, lol)

Thanks for the welcome!  I'm thrilled to be here.  As to how tall – Tall!  He's actually more handsome in person than on the screen, too.  Had on a simple white tee-shirt and jeans, and dark shades at first, in the produce section.  I literally seemed to find myself in every aisle he was in – and I swear i wasn't stalking him!  Then he took the shades off – maybe he wanted to be recognized, or thought he wasn't being, so it was safe?  My longtime partner is a famous psychic/medium, and he loves it when people come up to him (at least most of the time he loves it) and say hello, so I thought maybe Nathan wouldn't mind.  I could have just said congrats on the show.  Oh well, it was fun just to see him.  Anyone know who the woman was that he was with?  Is he dating someone, or is he married?  I'm a new Nathan fan.  By the way, those look like the shades he was wearing!!

Also a Ralphs market!  The one on Ventura Blvd. and Coldwater Canyon.  I'm kinda used to meeting celebs because of my relationship and because of writing and doing interviews, etc.  But some celebs just stop me cold!  Hugh Jackman was another one – met him through my boyfriend…just sort of mumbled, I think!  Probably would have done the same with Nathan.  Oh well.

Okay–the woman who was shopping with Mr. Fillion was probably his girlfriend, Darla. Who is awesome because she supports his Halo habit completely.  Plus, she can watch while he plays and not get motion sickness.  I wish I could say the same for me when I watch my husband play “medal of honor”.  I try to watch, and it always ends with me, a glass of 7-Up and saltines.

Darla, I salute you as a fellow girl geek, and as one who doesn't run for dramamine when her SO plays his games. 

Oh! and here is Nathan and his “bungie podcast” thingy–they are they guys responsible for “Halo”, and it's incredibly nerdy and geeky and if you don't do MMORPG thingys, you might be bored, but still….he DOES sound good looking.

Is Darla an actress?  This woman looked like maybe an actress -but I can't think from where.  She was thin, petite, attractive but not gorgeous, just nice looking.  Oh, and to comment on someone else's post about Gerard Butler – Yum!

Wait . . . he has talked about his girlfriend now? Where? If I'm allowed to ask.
