Interviewy fun!
Aug. 6th, 2003 09:37 am1) Anywhere but here. Where are you? (you know, like Amy Yip, at the waterslide park)
Oh. Goodness. I don’t know. I would like to say London, tea time, small café, rainy day. Hot English Guy. But I have built up my ideal of it I can’t say if it would actually be like that. So. That is my fantasy anywhere but here.
Based on places I’ve been? Grand Cayman. Beach (or pool). With a good book and a frozen drink. Getting tan, but not burned and again, with hot English Guy. Though I would settle for European, so long as there is the sexy accent. I am accent girl these days.
2) Obsessions. Crushes. Like, you know, the JM thing. Describe how yours goes: do you remain faithful to the one crush object, or are you fickle, crushwise? How long do they last? Can you maintain multiple objets d' crush?
I am stalker-obsessed when I have a crush. Every fantasy, every scenario every everything. Celebrity someone I know. I had a crush on Stupid Ex, and I moved to New York (though he wasn’t my only reason for moving, let me clarify). I have had a lot of little crushes that last a few days/weeks/ months. And those are fun. But the big time, lay my life down (so to speak) every waking thought crushes are usually the main devotions of my time.
As for multiples. I can crush multiples, if there is a relation. Like, I crush JM (which I realize is a shocking revelation) and also, to a lesser extent, AD and NB.
My Major Obsessive Grand Canyon crushes include: Nicholas Brendan (Dude. I was obsessed with Xander and Nick. Spike level obsession. That died out during season six), Jeff Goldblum (The end of I4. Tell me that isn’t sexy. He and Will Smith walking through the desert? Yum.), Danny Wood (shut. Up.), Charlie Sheen, Leo DiCaprio (*sigh* Titanic. I admit it), Michael J. Fox and many more I can’t think of. Currently: James Marsters and Colin Firth. James more than Colin. I have devoted a lot of time and energy to my James Crush. Mmmmm, James.
3) I'm channeling my inner Sally: would you eat a piece of poop for a million dollars? If so, what about a thousand dollars?
What kind of poop? Person poop? Animal? Ugh. I don’t know. Maybe for a million dollars. No way in Hell for a thousand. Though I might drink blood (like Survivor Kenya) for a thousand and defiantly would for a million.
4) What was the worst date you've ever had?
Heh. I don’t really date. I am a serial manogomist (I really should change that). I have been on dates with boyfriends, though.
Actually. There was this one guy, Mike, I went out with once in college. We went to Dominic’s in Little Little Italy (Arthur Ave. The Bronx. Awesome. Everyone should go). And it was so fucking boring. I had been at Fordham for maybe a month (maybe less) and this guy just kept talking about himself and all of his accomplishments. Dear G-D it was miserable. The food was good, though.
5) What do you like most about living in NYC? What sucks about it?
This may e cheesy, but I love the fact that I live in NYC. And I work in Manhattan. A lot of people do, true, but I grew up in Illinois and, yes, there was Chicago, but Manhattan was just *Wow*, you know? The fact that I have made a life for myself here- found work, apartments, friends, etc – is one of the things I am most proud of about myself. And I love that if I wanted to get a vegetarian egg-white omelet with Swiss cheese and onion rings in the middle of the night, I would be able to. And Central Park in the summer is magical.
What sucks? It is obscenely expensive. I live paycheck to paycheck, and that is barely. I feel like I would be able to enjoy my NYC experience more if I had more money to do stuff (even museum donations add up). And I miss my family. I would be happier if they were closer.
Whee! That was fun! What do I do now? Do I interview adj? Do I open myself up for more interviews?
