A Brush With Celebrity…

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

With Daniel still in town for spring break, we were finally able to take him out to lunch at the Vegiterranean today, after talking about it forever.  It did not disappoint–we were all very, very happy with our lunch selections.  As we were paying and preparing to leave, who should walk in but Vegiterranean owner and Pretenders lead singer, Chryssie Hynde, resplendent in a Rubber City Clothing hoodie, skinny jeans, and punk rock scowl.  Seriously, she looked like quite the cranky individual.  And she was a mere ten feet from our table.  Dan, with all the smoothness and suavity acquired from his position as talent wrangler for the OSU student board, whipped out his phone and prepared to take a surreptitious picture of our local rock star.  As he was pointing his snowy-white phone that looked remarkably like a camera, the diva turned and directed a disdainful glare at Dan.   He very coolly lowered the phone, feigned a continued conversation with us, and we all slunk out the door, tails tucked.  I was glad to leave the place unscathed.  That bitch has ATTITUDE.
