The First Thing I Do in the Morning Is:

  • First, I get really excited that I woke up. You never know, you know.
  • Then I pee.

I Love(d) Listening To:

I Respect:

  • Your right to disagree

I'm Addicted To:

  • The Gem Shopping Network
  • Lazaro jewelry
  • Any type of Scratch Lottery Tickets--if I won? I’d pick ten schools in the New York/New Jersey area where they have no gyms, and buy them each a Dance Dance Revolution machine. If you had two machines you’d get the first graders against each other, and the second graders against the fifth graders, and get them all thin again. I’d get them the new Wii that you do the hula with. And then I’d get myself a townhouse. And the rest of the money I'd put to work for us wherever we need it.

I Don't Care What They Say:

  •  -- as long as it’s constructive.

What Wows Me:

  • Everything

I Collect:


I Love(d) Reading:

  • Everything.  My joy in books is boundless. I’m a collector.

My Remedies:

  • A good strong hand fan

I Want to Own:

  • Beautiful stuff like great writing utensils. My favorites are from Loiminchay (they make beautiful pens, carved from jade and ivory) and a website called Nibs.com.

My Favorite Things:

Dead to Me:

  • I don’t even remember who they are

I am Miserly About:

  • My time
  • My Whole Foods 365 Potato Chips -- you can’t touch them! Plain regular salt flavor.

I Wish I Lived In:

  • A perfect world where everybody was equal and everybody could afford what they wanted and needed.
  • A townhouse.
