Renee O' Connor Spotting!

[Zalle Warrior Princess]

Hi. I am new at these forums. (Ignore my account name, I didn't realize the last 3 letters were cut off) I don't know where I could post this so if it needs to be moved go ahead.

I had the pleasure of meeting Renee O' Connor on July 1st. I work at the Houston's Museum of Natural Science at the box office. I was calling for the next person in line and a lady (Renee)walks up to my window. At first, I didn't see it was her. I was trying to get the lines down (we were busy and my boss loathes lines of people) and so I asked her what she wanted and she replied "We want to see the next planetarium show." I saw that she only had 6 minutes until it started so I was trying to rush so she wouldn't miss it. I was swiping her credit card and "Renee O'Connor" pops up on the card name. I stared at it for a few seconds and my heart started pumping frantically. I looked up! It was Renee O'Connor!! Nervously I asked her "Are you her?!" She laughed and said "Yes I'm Her." But I realized I couldn't really talk to her more because time was running out. So I finished up the transaction and printed her tickets. As I was doing so, she turned over a IMAX schedule and signed Thank You, Jennifer (My name)! God Bless, Renee O'Connor "Gabrielle"!
I did not even ask for it! I then offered to walk her to her show and she accepted. As I walked there, we talked for a few seconds and she shook my hand! (I haven't washed it since. !Just Kidding!) I even got to see her daughter!! She was soo adorable! That has been my only celebrity siting that actually has meant something for me! (I have seen Weird Al at my museum too. And Snoop Dogg at the mall.) I didn't see her anymore that day.

*Takes a deep breath and sighs* It was the coolest day of my life so far. Well, there goes my tale.

Ok...so this probably doesn't belong in this topic, but I didn't quite know where to put it. It is a Renee spotting, but nothing like the one that started the thread. I didn't see it mentioned anywhere else in this forum, so I thought I'd stick it in here. And it's old news - but new to me.

I was catching up on reruns of my favorite show the other night - Criminal Minds - and an episode came on that I haven't seen yet. In the opening scenes of "A Higher Power" from the 2008 season, a voice sounded familiar. Renee? The scene was dark, and it was hard to make out the woman's facial features.

It wasn't until the following scene, during daylight in an interview with the woman whose husband just committed "suicide", that I confirmed to myself it was actually Renee. Distraught, haggard, and quite old looking, LX didn't even recognize her.

Here are some photos from Renee's part of the episode:

Gee, I could have sworn I alerted everyone she was on an ep when it first aired? Maybe I thought about doing it but never actually did it.

Okay. I couldn't find any such thread, so I guess I got distracted somewhere along the way.

I knew Renee was in it, as I read it on Ausxip
