I drooled on Jake Gyllenhaal, literally

Jake was like directly below me just five minutes ago, one story. I could have spit on him. He is rather gorgeous in person. I watched him do jumping jacks before they filmed the shot. Some custodians and I were gawking in the corner office.

They're filming this David Fincher movie, "Chronicles" or "Zodiac" about the zodiac killer outside. They have all sorts of old cars, old cabs, an old bus and they've repainted the Chronicle trucks. They're driving old cars in circles between Fifth and Sixth on Mission. They have to let the electric buses through because, well, they're electric buses and they can't go another route. They took down a bus stop. Apparently the Chronicle figures big in the story. But they're only using the outside of the building, and doing the inside shots on sound stages in LA.

Below me was also Robert Downey Jr. Apparently just before I got here, Mark Ruffalo and Anthony Edwards in a wig were bursting into the lobby over and over again. Sonia is upset she missed Ruffalo. She's been carrying on about it. I told her to take a walk outside, but she says, "I'm not that lame."

Today is a good day, because, in addition to Jake:

1. It's MY LAST SUNDAY.

2. I bought two Arcade Fire tickets for Chanelle and me this morning from a scalper. I hate support scalpers, but it's THE ARCADE FIRE. Balcony, second row.

Maybe Jake Gyllenhaal will come to Arcade Fire tonight!

Bad pictures soon.

Two seconds too late

In the lower righthand corner, you can see the backs of Robert Downey Jr. and Jake Gyllenhaal - guy in the tan coat with his arm on the guy in the red sweater.

UPDATE! Mark Ruffalo is now outside our window, getting out of a black Ford.

Mark Ruffalo

Ellie got some good pictures. She's sending them tomorrow. A custodian got Jake, too.

Movie stuff

Mark is having hair and makeup done in these pictures, but you can't see him.

Movie update

UPDATE: Jake Gyllenhaal is running across the street! The cars go forward, then backward. It's very surreal.

They moved to the other side of the street. Then Mark and Anthony spent a good deal of time getting out of the car on that side of the street and walking half-way through the Intersection.

Anthony has very good fake hair. I walked right past them. I was, like, five feet from Mark Ruffalo. Then I heard a production person say, "Let's get all the lookyloos off the sidewalk." There's a snack cart and other junk outside the Fifth Street entrance.

They're filming outside the Chronicle AGAIN next Sunday. Same day as the Folsom Street Fair! Which, if you don't know, brings out all the half-naked dominatrixes and leather daddies. They all walk down Fifth Street. Oh, L.A. people! They always get surprised by San Francisco!

The guy who runs Mezzazine, a club across the street, agreed to meet me there during the Gay Pride Parade. He was like, "Whoa, I didn't realize traffic would be that bad!" Silly! I'm asking him if any celebs are going to make use of his "VIP" room.
