So just as I'm getting excited about answering all your questions, my boss calls me in to work a 7 1/2 shift. Now I get to reply to everyone! =]

Shameless' questions!
If you were recuperating in a hospital and couldn’t have a private room, who would you want in the bed next to you, excluding relatives?
My friend Kristina. I’ve known her since I was 9 years old, and she’s basically another sister to me.

What has given you the most pleasure in the last year?
Seeing my niece Autumn grow from a tiny little thing to a smart little girl with a great personality.
What's something that we would be surprised to learn about you?
I’m actually really shy in person. Serious.

If your house were on fire, what material possessions would you grab on the way out?
The silver and diamond heart necklace my dad got me this past Christmas, and my cell phone.

If we asked an important person in your life to describe you, what would he or she say? How accurate would it be?
My cousin Traycee. She’d say I was a bit immature, but it’s really my shyness being mistaken. She’d be completely correct.

RENTingFAME's questions!
If you could spend a day with the cast of any show, what show would you choose and what would you do?
Oh man, this is a hard one. I'd have to say Grey Gardens because I love me some Christine Ebersole and Erin Davie, and I haven't seen my friend Sarah who's in the show, in a really long time. I'd love to have lunch with the three mentioned above, tour the theatre with them, then go shopping with Sarah.

ClumsyDude15's questions!
What has been your favorite encounter with a BWWer in real life?
The adventures with DivaBrigader, including the one with us singing "Never Fully Dressed" from Annie with Danny Gurwin in the middle of Shubert Alley. Also, the time DivaBrigader and I met the fabulous EddieVarley at a NJ diner at 1:00 am.

Favorite musical on Broadway now.
Grey Gardens, kthx.

Favorite actor and actress on Broadway now.
Actor - Christopher Plummer, damn. Actress - Christine Ebersole, because well, she's Christine Ebersole.

What are we gonna do at The Flea Market in September together?
I've got a few tricks up my sleeve, mister. No, I lie. I really have no idea. Suggestions, anyone?

wonderfulwizard11's questions!
What would be your perfect day?
Any day involving the city, Starbucks, and a newly cashed paycheck...and friends. Friends are a must!

KEEP 'EM COMIN'!!! =]

What’s something that you’ve never done, but have always wanted to try?

What’s the last great gift that you gave someone? And, that you were given?

If you had to be someone else for one day, who would you be, and what would you do?

What do you do when you need cheering up?

Name a place that you’ve never been, but would like to visit.

[Chrissy*J]

What’s something that you’ve never done, but have always wanted to try?
Skydive. True story.

What’s the last great gift that you gave someone? And, that you were given?
I really suck at giving gifts, so I don't have an answer. The last great gift that I was given is my aforementioned heart necklace.

If you had to be someone else for one day, who would you be, and what would you do?
If I'm someone else, does that mean someone else is me for that day? If so, that's not fair, because I don't think anyone else should have to be me. If not...then whoever the actress who plays Grace Farrell in the 40th Anniversary production would be. I'd do my thing onstage, of course.

What do you do when you need cheering up?
I usually just try to fall asleep and hope that I feel better when I wake up.

Name a place that you’ve never been, but would like to visit.
Las Vegas. One of my closest friends lives there, and I'd love to visit her.

Gimme more, haha...

[Chrissy*J]

Career goals?
Tons of people will answer this the same as me, but I don't care. I want to be on Broadway. Even if it's not performing onstage. I just want my name in a Broadway Playbill. Of course, I'd love it to be for performing, but I'll be happy with costume designer, too.

Favorites: book, movie, tv show, musician.
Book- Cathy's Book, by Sean Stewart
Movie- Now & Then
TV Show- I don't really watch tv, so I don't have an answer.
Musician- Regina Spektor. I'm obsessed with her voice.

Last great book you've read:
Cathy's Book, natch.

[Chrissy*J]

Posted: 6/4/07 at 10:20pm

What is your favorite hair color? :)
On me, I'd love to stay with either blonde or dark brown hair forever, but my roots don't agree with me. So for now, I'm sticking with black. =]

I'd gain the ability to have the boy I like love me back.
