Mavi Diary - Day 15
Dear Diary. It’s time to deal with a tricky issue. Fans.
I love them all when I’m separated from them by at least a pane of glass…like around a rink or a walkway to the dressing room or airport lounge and especially my car window. I say especially my car window because I can deploy my primary core emotion of meh as I drive on by and ignore them.
I’ve done photo shoots at the airport and liquor store and of course signings. One I remember was when a fan had a painting of me standing victoriously over a victim. That part feels true to me especially if I get an award for it. I didn’t like the inference that I suffered in battle and ripped my jersey and there were no shoulder pads. I would get cold and I would never allow that so unreasonably drawn I would say.
Speaking of colds, I caught one and many other ailments when I signed autographs at west Edmonton mall. They put me on a bridge over troubled waters (hehheh I’m still a funny guy right diary? See what I did there) by the boat and between the sick fans in January and the general lack of tissues in Edmonton, I feel like I interacted with every nose wiping hand. No glass there either diary.
I love seeing my name on shirts from the olden days before I was an Oiler. Very clever from fans.
I just don’t like to touch them.
Later diary!
