Friday Five (actually six)–courtesy of Morgan.

1. You find a box of cashews in your house and you have no idea where they came from… so you eat any?

Sure. Cashews are good. If they were covered in maggots or something I wouldn’t, but otherwise, I’d dig in.

2. What one item do you buy at the grocery store more than any other?

It seems like I buy whole wheat bread and Baked Lays every time. I also pick up an onion or two on just about every trip, because I use them in probably every other meal I cook.

3. Ever eat dog food?

Unless you mean a fat, juicy steak, then no.

4. Last time you tried hoola hooping?

It was at a Christmas party at Denny’s relatives house a year or two ago. I’m very good at it. It’s one of my best skills.

5. Do you leave tips in those tip cups at coffee shops / fast food places?

Not usually. If I get coins in my change and I’m feeling generous I’ll toss them in. I do try to contribute to the “take a penny/leave a penny” social contract in retail situations, though.

6. Ever seen a third nipple?

No. I’ve seen like sixteen nipples on pigs, though. How many do they have? it looks like about sixteen.

Were your feet warm and dry when you woke up this morning? Mine were.

If you were hungry, did you just walk to the kitchen and get some food? I did.

If you felt a little blechy in the head, were you reasonably sure it was allergies and not typhoid? I was.

Give if you can.

So, on a semi-whim, I auditioned for a City Circle Theatre production of Sweet Charity. I have been cast in the role of Carmen. I’m also in a whole bunch of song and dance numbers. I think it will be fun.

I have never seen this play, and I have no idea who this Carmen person is.

I hope it’s Carmen Sandiego. Where the hell is she, anyway?
