book - A Game OF Thrones by George R R Martin.

cd - Velvet Goldmine Soundtrack

I'm going to say a tv show instead of a movie - Carnivale.

What would you change about yourself?
What would you never change about yourself?
What is Steve Miller's perfect day?

1 - Not even heard of that book - will put it on my list.

2 - Got it! Love "The Whole Shebang!" Got David addicted to it too. Hehe.

3. Hmm - will have to have someone TiVo an episode for me.

I would work on being much much more gracious and less vocal about my opinions, which I know are faulty but pretend like they're infallible. I would lose weight. I assume these are things we CAN change, not like "Grow some hair over my balding pate."

I would not change my imagination, how I see things in story form or in dialogue. I would not change my thirst for knowledge or my memory as it is now, as it currently works very well. I would not change how I lose myself when I'm writing. Nor my love of writing and reading and of music.

Ooo, getting up early and watching the sun rise with my cat. Then, getting together with my friends and having a good breakfast of french toast and Italian coffee with toasted rye bread and some fruit. And then going right back to bed until about 11.

Then, doing something that makes me feel like I accomplished something. Taking a long shower.

Having a late lunch of half a sandwich with some other friends. Going to a good movie with David and other analytical people. Stopping for a small cup of Italian ice at GelatOne with Cathy. And then spending a few hours in Barnes & Noble by myself looking for a great book by a new author and/or a CD of some new band.

Having a very late dinner of sushi or salmon with friends (esp. Michael Slaymaker and probably Mikey and David Dean._ Going to a local martini bar that has NO SMOKING and listening to some great local act with my friends, like Joshie and Sarah and Jeff Lindberg.

Doing one crazy thing with my friends int he middle of the night, like one round of Hide-and-Seek.

Then to bed, and it'd have to be a Saturday, so that the next day was Sunday.

That's it.

Book I recommend: Jeez, this is like asking a nun to recommend a good crack house... I would say "Uncle Mame: The Patrick Dennis Story" because it is facsinating and I don't believe you have read it.

CD I recommend: En Vogue's "Funky Divas" - a fun hip-hop/R&B kick back to the early 90's.

Movie I recommend: You have seen everything! I'll do a Joshie and also switch this to a TV Show: Dude, you gotta see "Lost".

Three questions:
(1) What is you like most about my personality?
(2) What is your favorite memory that involves me?
(3) What roles would you love to see me play on stage?

I ain't read Uncle Mame - let me borrow it, biotch! God knows you ain't reading it twice.

Got Funky Divas - fun album!

Eeeks - Dammit, okay, TiVo it and we'll watch it. We'll have to work around your schedule...

LMAO - all about you...fugures!

Umm, I do like that you're very talented and yet you know how to use it to be gracious and charming - I bet a lot of people agree you improve a party exponentially. I also love that you're as analytical about movies and plays as I am. Or close. I love that you love editting, too, 'cause God knows I need it!

Too many to mention - almost all seem to happen in your car - on the way to Tallahassee working through Sons while seeing Neverland come to life. The night in Tallahassee where we realized we wrote a funny, popular play. How capable you sounded at the Sons workshop. How much we both HATED Beloved and immediately started making fun of it for its many, obvious flaws (I bet Helen still laughs at this - I still have the photo on the mirror at home.) How much you loved the book The Hours after I had to "force" you to read it. The drunk Diva is way way way up there! You taking me to Centra Care when I was one square dance from death (or at least I felt it.) Your positive reaction to The Family Fugue and the disco beat. When we realized Gay Wedding worked. The "gay as a golden goose" thingy in Wonker. Your birthday morning after Hurleycane Chuck.

Umm, two. I want to see you play Ivan "the flabby amoeba" in Art (...okay, I'll play Marc, sheesh!) And I want to see the drunk Diva again.
