1. What would be your ideal “last meal”?
A bottle cask of Riesling, cheesy potatoes and bloody marys from Jack Stack’s, chicken eggplant pesto and frozen amaretto sours from Alexander’s, pizza from Vinnie’s, chocolate-chip banana pancakes from Pamela’s, a sammich and wings from Fathead’s, sweet potato fries with gorgonzola (in season) from Cap City, and a bacon cheeseburger from Five Guys. Oh, and chocolate/liquor-of-my-choice fondue from the Melting Pot. And about 40 gallons of coffee from Borders, Starbucks and Caribou. Oh, and a chocolate berry basket from Alexandria Pastry Shop.

Yup, all that should kill me. 🙂

2. Do you wear a watch? If so, describe it.
I have 17 silver watches in a drawer with dead batteries. If I want the time, then I glance at my cell phone display.

3. When was the last time you made non-microwave popcorn?
College. I had an air popper. Loved that stupid thing till the plastic cracked. We used to use like two sticks of butter for every five kernels popped — real healthy. LOL.

4. Would you rather shove your arm into a beehive or shove it into a scorpion pit?
Beehive, thanks. There’s at least a chance of it not being a deadly experience.

5. What’s one thing you feel you really must do before you die?
To be absolutely, 100 percent myself — saying and doing whatever I damn well please — without fear of repercussion. I guess that’s what old age is for. 😉

6. Why haven’t you done it yet?
Because every time I realize that I am fabulous, something happens or someone manages to ruin it for me. That, and most people don’t laugh with you when you say “Bite me.”

7. Do you take a multi-vitamin?
Yup. Olay. Supposed to be for healthy skin, but tell that to my pre-teen-esque complexion.

8. Are you going to any weddings this summer?
Not this summer. I was a bridesmaid last summer, though.

9. Do you have any online “wish lists”?
Amazon.com. Also, I’ve gotten hooked on 43 Things, which is where you list what you want to do with your life.

10. What would you rather be doing right this very second?
Starring in a porno.

On iTunes: John Mellencamp, “Pink Houses”
