Having eventually gotten back home, I finally can continue asking my questions again 
Congrats, Wyou17!
My "new usual" questions:
What is your favorite role you'd one day like to play (soon as you get cast on Broadway)?
Which is your favorite Broadway songwriter/songwriter team?
What do you do first when you wake up in the morning? ("getting up" doesn't count)
If you were given the power, which past Broadway production would you undo so it never could have happened?
Enjoy your days!

Thank goodness I have a whole weekend. With moving back onto campus and sorting out all of my computer issues in the dorms, I never would have had the time to answer questions if there had been only one day for me to do it all in...
Cake or pie?
Pie all the way. Love pie. My mother makes a ridiculously good peaches & cream pie.
How do you see your dream house?
I'd love a Victorian house. And I want to have a formal dining room and a library. And the library must have floor to ceiling books, which necessitates a rolling ladder (this has been part of the dream house since childhood- see Angela Lansbury and David Tomlinson during the song Eglentine in Bedknobs & Broomsticks) And a solarium, like Sheridan Crane was often seen in. And I'd like a dumb waitor, a spiral staircase, and a secret passage from the conservatory to the lounge.
What is your favorite role you'd one day like to play (soon as you get cast on Broadway)?
I have no idea what role that I am actually appropriate for would be currently. I tend to spend most of the imagining time thinking of roles I won't ever be cast in but would love to do. The very top of my list of dream roles is the Baker's Wife in Into The Woods.
Which is your favorite Broadway songwriter/songwriter team?
Sondheim is certainly my favorite. Which isn't to say that I'm snobby. The iPod is very represented with Coleman, Kander & Ebb, Schwartz, Webber, Flaherty & Ahrens, Simon & Norman, Finn, Rodgers & Hammerstein (or Hart)...it is certainly an all around love of theater. I also am a huge fan of the Disney, and Alan Menken's music gets a lot of play.
What do you do first when you wake up in the morning? ("getting up" doesn't count)
More often than not, the first thing I do when I wake up is check the clock and sleep for another 10-30 minutes.
If you were given the power, which past Broadway production would you undo so it never could have happened?
There isn't any production I have ever seen that I would completely undo. Terrible shows have had great performances. Awful scores have given us good individual songs. There is no production I have ever seen so devoid of merrit that I would take it back.
That said, I suppose there might have been revivals of plays or musicals which ultimately could have been avoided. But I am fortunate enough to have never sat through a Broadway production in which I found nothing to be entertaining. There is always something that, for me, made it worth the effort.

Posted: 9/10/06 at 2:51pmYes, I was away for the summer. "Back to the dorms" after the summer break. I've always lived on campus at school.

Ah... when I went to college I only survived 3 mos. in the dorms. (it was a small private art school.) I've never 'lived well with others.'

Posted: 9/10/06 at 3:00pm"Dorms" this year are four people to a suite (chosing to live together) with a full kitchen, living room, dining table, one giant bathroom, and four private bedrooms. So it isn't so bad. There is a lot of room.

Wow... that does sound nice - especially that you each get your own room.
My college 'dorm' was basically 2 bedroom apts. shared by four people.

With everyone's permission, I'd like wyou17 to hold off naming the next message board celebrity of the day until tomorrow so that today can be used to remember those that lost their lives 5 years ago.
best,

Posted: 9/11/06 at 11:10amGood idea Craig. I think thats appropriate for today given the circumstances.

There is no way Jersey hasn't been CoTD yet! It's just not possible!!
My question: Do you look anything like Angelina? Because in my head, you are her.

First, I have to apologize to all of the Cotds I missed over the last few days. If you feel cheated by not getting to answer my very profound questions (ha, ha, ha) please feel free to answer them, but try not to steal too much of JG’s thunder. 
Congrats JG2!
