I just saw that back on July 31, I was tagged by Shawn Lea over at Everything and Nothing to do that eight weird things about me quiz. However, since I think I’ve done it before, instead, I’m snagging another of Shawn’s wonderful self-interviews. These questions were originally posed to Julia Stiles in Cosmopolitan (August 2007), and I invite anyone else to apply them to yourself on your own journals and blogs. Thanks, Shawn!
The last book I read was: J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
The movie I watch over and over is: Pillow Talk.
I could never date a guy who: was homophobic.
My friends always make fun of me for: For what? WHAT? Tell me. Or don’t.
If you opened my purse right now, you’d find: one major credit card, two gas credit cards, driver’s license, Kroger card and Kroger/SPCA matching card, Blockbuster card, Hollywood Video card, Mr. Car Wash corporate discount card, voter’s registration, driver’s license, SS card, MT registration card, Borders card, reading glasses in case, distance vision glasses in case, nineteen dollars and some change, shoulder strap for purse, business card holder and a lot of TJB and Cochrane/Lambert cards, pen, a thing that hooks onto a table that you can hang a purse from (such as in a restaurant). I think that’s it. My cell phone is currently recharging next to me or it would be in there, too, and all personal care items (floss!, lipstick, etc.) are in a larger bag that usually travels with me. I keep my purse as light as possible.
I’m deathly afraid of: falling from a great height (that’s really more what my fear of flying is about).
The one thing I wish I knew about relationships five years ago that I know now is: People in my life would continue to surprise me–in good and bad ways. I never really learn that.
I have this secret dream of becoming: a wealthy resident of Manhattan.
If I could trade lives with another woman for a day, it would be: J.K. Rowling.
The one summer fashion trend that you’ll never catch me in: bikini.
The one food I simply cannot resist is: salad.
You’d be shocked to find that I: can keep a secret.
On a random Saturday afternoon, I can most likely be found: writing at my computer.
The best advice I’ve ever received was: Listen.
The biggest problem facing our country today is: spending more time reading about and talking about celebrities than things like, oh, say, the way governmental power to eavesdrop on our private phone conversations has just been expanded.
