I'll Have What Janeane's Having
2002-09-25

sunday involved a whole lotta running around town with a gal pal's gal pal visiting for the weekend. brunch in the east village(that's my hood, word), central park including the infamous ramble with its detritus of homosex (yes, that IS a used condom there in the dirt by that rock), brooklyn bridge, the 6 (just like j.lo) and dinner at french roast for the divine yumminess that is endive au gratin. and yes, little miss garofalo was at the table next to us.

now, this was my first brush with celebrity, notwithstanding john turturro, who seems to hang out at the bagel shop around the corner from this one's brooklyn digs (i've not actually seen him, just heard the stories), here in new york. and of course, it won't be my last. interesting. favorite celebrity sighting? jared leto coming out of the noah's bagels on melrose in l.a. and yes, he IS that beautiful in person. ouch. personally, i have NO interest in ever being famous. if anything, i might crave notoriety, but definitely not fame. notoriety implies something intellectual or dangerous, like reclusive pulitzer prize winning novelist or bank robber. hey, a girl can dream.
