Who do you want to win the super bowl? Who is playing in the super bowl?
Who is your favorite team? My family is very fond of the Philadelphia Eages, so those are usually the only games I watch.
Are you planning a super bowl party or plan on attending one? I would absolutely host one if I had my own apartment. I love beer, wings, seven layer dip, the commercials, and half-time. But since I'm living with my parents at the moment, I will most likely go to a party with them to enjoy wings & hoagies.
Did you enter any pools at work? I work for a handbag company; we're not that kind of workplace environment.
Show us a cheer. This might be the only time in my life that I wish I had been a cheerleader. Alas, I have no photo.
If you could be any animal, what would you be and why? This question is asked in every situation that requires an ice-breaker and most introductory theatre classes. In fact in introductory acting classes, students are often asked to review an animal at the zoo and then embody it in the next class. So, I feel like I am constantly being asked this question and yet I have no good answer. I don't know what kind of animal I'd want to be. Jungle Cat? Dolphin? Elephant? Housepet? I have no idea. How does one decide?
What is your favorite activity...other than sex? I feel like just for the sake of pissing off the question writer that I should reply masterbation. However, even though I enjoy that greatly, I also enjoy theatre immensely, specifically directing or watching innovative, good, (new) work.
What is the silliest thing you have ever done? I'm not terribly silly, but this summer I did go skinny-dipping for the first time, which included a naked trip down the slide into the lake. I guess that was very silly.
What do you like best about yourself? On a good day: my sense of self, humor, confidence, warmth, openness, and empathy.
Show us a smile. This will have to wait for later. I'm on my way out the door and cannot dig through photos.
Did you kiss anyone at midnight on New Years?
Unfortunately, no. I’m a big fan of making out, but I was hanging with friends and it didn’t seem appropriate. We did, however, toast to the New Year and drunkenly hug and sway while listening to Auld Lang Syne. All things considered, I had a really fantastic evening and spent it with great people.
Are your holiday decorations still up?
Yes, indeed. But, I’m living with my parents at the moment, and my Mother is fanatical about Christmas decorations. I find our particular array to be tacky, but it makes her happy.
Did you gain weight over the holidays, and if so how do you plan on getting rid of it?
Well, thanks to Weight Watchers, I actually lost 0.2 lbs over the holidays. I know that’s not a tremendous loss, but it’s better than gaining.
Do you play video games?
Nope. I dabbled as a kid, but after Ecco the Dolphin, I lost interest.
Do you have pets? Let’s see them.
My parents have three cats – none of them are really mine. As such, I don’t have photos of them, but I’ll share a photo of new years instead. From L to R: Suzanne, Paige, Me, Jason.
- What is your new years resolution for 2007? I don't make resolutions. I find that they set up false expectations and aren't worth the trouble.
- Do you plan on going out or staying in for new years? I honestly don't know. It's the first year that I haven't been compelled to try and plan the "best new years ever." Maybe this is a sign I'm growing up?
- Was 2006 a good year or a bad year? Good. Incredibly challenging, but then again very rewarding.
- Did you make any resolutions for 2006, and if so did you keep them? again, not my style.
- Let's see a party.
1. Do you get snow in your part of the world? normally, but not so far during this unseasonably warm winter. seriously, it shouldn't be in the high 50s or low 60s in december.
2. What is your favorite wintertime treat? long baths during cold weather. but in terms of food: hot chocolate with candycanes.
3. Have you ever seen the aurora borealis or the aurora australis? no, i have not. in fact i feel kinda dumb and should google to find out what those two things are.
4. How cold does it get where you live? i live in new jersey. we experience all 4 seasons, including winter and sometimes snow. to be honest, i don't know the average temperature.
5. Show us your hat! strange coincidence seeing as i wore a hat to work today. see below:
