My First Tag

Thanks to Amy, I’ve finally been tagged to do one of these self-indulgent quiz thingies.

Four Jobs You’ve Had
1. TV Producer. Not as glamorous as it sounds. In that job you sink to the lowest depths of the low, just to get your shot. And looking back, it’s just TV people, so who cares? If I’d had that attitude at the time, I’d a)never work again and b)not have to sit in a basement next to a box full of cat shit for 12 hours in a row.
2. Time-keeper for the actors who pretended to be patients at the chiropractor student’s board exam. One of the most boring jobs EVER. And you had to hang out with a roomful of wannabe actors in Los Angeles. Torture. For very little money, too. But in those days very little money was way more than I had.
3. Spinner. This meant I operated the centrifuges at the blood chemistry lab of a major hospital. I processed incoming specimens – blood, urine, feces, and amniotic fluid – centrifuged them, then took off the top layer of fluid and divvied up among the stations of the lab for their various tests. Tina was my partner in crime. Sorry, Tina, I outed you.
4. Food service worker/waitress/hostess etc. In so many places and in so many bad polo shirt/chino combinations it would blow your mind.

Four Movies You Could Watch Over and Over
1. The Changeling. Nobody has ever heard of this movie. My favoritest ever.
2. The Princess Bride. Inconceivable!
3. Love, Actually. I love it, actually.
4.

Four Places You’ve Lived

2. South Bend, IN
3. Rockville, CT DON’T GO BACK TO ROCKVILLE.
4. Pasadena, CA

Four T.V. Shows You Love To Watch
1. The Daily Show
2. Two and a Half Men. Jon Cryer really annoys me but I love Charlie Sheen even though he’s a sexual deviant.
3. Sex and the City. Still.
4. Sesame Street. This is a Mommy Blog, remember.

Four Favorite Books
1. Stephen King’s The Stand
2. The Chronicles of Narnia

3. The Baja Peninsula in Mexico
4. San Francisco

Four Websites You Visit Daily
1. All of my “blogs I read”
2. And some that are not on that list b/c I’m too lazy
3. The Mommy Mafia. It’s a hidden site that I developed for my unofficial mom’s group
4. That’s more than four.

Four Favorite Foods

2. New Haven pizza.
3. Chocolate ice cream.
4. Watermelon.

Four Places You’d Rather Be Right Now
1. At Burke Williams getting a massage
2. Outside going for a walk. I’m sick so I can’t do that.
3. At my parents’ house being mothered back to health.
4. On a boat in the Caribbean.

Four People You’re Tagging
1. Is it bad if I don’t tag someone else? I’m new to this and I feel somewhat hesitant to do so.

Update: Turns out Kate tagged me last week. And her version had this additional category:
Four things you would change about your house:
1. The *&%^$(-ing popcorn ceiling. I would REMOVE IT.
2. The rackafracking carpet. I would REPLACE IT and give the Home Depot saleswoman a swift kick in the arse.
3. The FRONT YARD!!! GAH! Seriously, I must get a photo on here for you. But I might be too embarrassed. There might be more gardener-firing going on around here.
4. The neighborhood. I would pick this house up and put it in Bethany, CT in a giant yard with woods in back and a creek running through it. And change the exterior from stucco to wood shingles. Ah, a girl can dream.
