From the lovely and talented [personal profile] jandjsalmon
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I respond by asking you a couple personal questions so I can get to know you better.If I already know you well, expect the questions may be a little more intimate!
3. You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

1.       When did you know you wanted to be an actress?

 

When I was a senior in high school, at semester break the counselor called me to her office and told me if I wanted to graduate, I would have to take another elective.  After much eye-rolling and deep-sighing, she gave me the options of Theatre 1 (me & a bunch of freshmen) and Homemaking.  I (with the foreknowledge that I would be hopeless at all things domestic, I suppose) chose theatre, and got the lead in the Spring Play, 'Tracy Lord' in The Philadelphia Story.  (It’s a great movie with Jimmy Stewart, Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant… go rent it!)  One taste, and I was hooked.  I knew that that was what I was supposed to be, like someone had flipped a switch.   I majored in theatre and have been in 37 plays to date.  If you want to read a short story I wrote about it, it's here.

2. Where is your most favourite place to visit and why?

 

My most favorite place to visit is New York City, Manhattan specifically.  Hubby and I go once a year for the food, the shows, and the nightlife.  We LOVE it.

3. Of all your fictional favourites... who is your most favourite character. (and you can't say Draco! ;))

 

Lauren Henderson writes Sam Jones, a British sculptress who solves murders.  She’s awesome (Lauren and Sam).  And Simon Brett has a series of probably 13 or so books about Charles Paris, a middle aged character actor that inadvertently solves murders.  I love Charles Paris.  If I were a man, that’s probably (sadly) what I would evolve into.

4. Are you a 'walk in the rain' kinda girl or do you carry an umbrella? 

 

Oh, dear.  An umbrella.  Am very vain about my hair.

5. I know you have boys... but if you had had a girl, what would you have named her... OR if your boys had been girls, what would they have been named? (I'm always curious... because we totally KNEW what we'd name our kids - both genders- from very early on). 

 

Easy.  Grace Elizabeth.  I had it ready to whip out TWICE.  And again, just a few weeks ago!


Oh, and because a friend was talking about the gym today, I decided I'd go.  Dear heavens, I hurt.  

I cannot get LJ off of italics.  Whatever.

From: [identity profile] seegrim.livejournal.com


1. I was searching online almost three years ago for the definition of Kneazle (I cannot remember why) and google came up with The Weasel and the Kneazle by Davesmom. I had no idea what I had stumbled onto (I didn't even know what fanfic was) but I haven't left since!

2. Did I even have a life before I had kids? I was at the University of Utah working on a Bachelor's in Political Science and applying to law schools when I got pregnant. I worked on campus as an administrative assistant to the director of the Nuclear Engineering Lab.

3. What did I want to be when I grew up? Honestly, the first thing I remember wanting to be was wonder woman.

4. Least favorite household chore- hands down it's cleaning bathrooms. I try to stagger it so I don't have to clean them all on one day. Ick.

5. Do I have any special talents? Well, I know I must have some. Oh, I love to cook and bake. Anything and everything. I play the piano until my kids go hide in the basement to avoid the noise. I can't think of anything else.

Wow, I feel kind of dull now!

From: [identity profile] persephone33.livejournal.com


No, not dull at all! The only thing I retained from four years of piano lessons was the theme to the Pink Panther. But if anyone needs that played, I'm your girl!

I love Grace Elizabeth... really really pretty! I can TOTALLY see you being vain about the hair... *giggles* I have a neice who lives in Manhatten... but I, alas, have never been there. She is trying to be an actress out there... got a call back for Rizzo but blew the audition. Poor Poor girl! ;)

Do I get to play too... or should I say... Please interview me? ;)

From: [identity profile] persephone33.livejournal.com


Auditions are hard for some people. You either thrive on them, or the adrenaline gives you everything you need. I, personally LOVE auditions. I like to go in and "own the room." Heehee!

From: [identity profile] persephone33.livejournal.com


Duh. Sorry.

1. What was your favorite T.V. show growing up?

2. Where did you go on your honeymoon?

3. What would your dream job be? (Aside from being a wife and mother which is the best job ever, obviously!):)

4. Okay rec girl... What is your favorite D/G fic ever in the whole world?

5. Considering each of your children's personalities, what do you see them being (occupation-wise) when they grow up?

From: [identity profile] jandjsalmon.livejournal.com


That's why I totally admire you. I enter a room, and usually I am the centerof attention, but it's because I'm loud and giddy and/or we're having a political/historical situation and I'm the most opinionated person on the planet. ;)

But yeah. McKenna has been in some Off Broadway stuff... but for Grease, she was the only Non-Equity girl called back and then another little chit in the waiting room freaked her out so she blew that audition.

Oh well. She makes a TON of money as a waitress while waiting for her big Role. My mom went and saw her in 'The Spitfire Grill' last summer and you would have thought she had been on Broadway with the excited ment of my mom and my sister... so yeah -- we're easily pleased! ;)

Ooo me! Me! I love The Philadelphia Story. It has three of my all time favourite actors in it and I never fail to get tired from it. It was probably one of the first movies that got me into classic films. And I've only been to Manhatten once for a weekend but I'm desperate to go back soon!
