1. Tell us about a time that you had way too much Jose Cuervo. Strawberry margaritas at a "Cocktails for the Cure" AIDS event. I didn't want to get loaded, mind you. It's just that $1 from each red drink ordered went to charity. I gave till it hurt ... the next morning.
2. Do you agree with the following statement: "The older you get, the faster time goes by?" Yes. I was just talking to my 11-year-old nephew, who thought his Christmas break from grade school was soooo long that his classmates actually looked different when he got back to school.
3. What do you usually do during your "down time?" Lately I have been going to the movies a lot. The Oscars do that to me. I return to the theaters every January the way the swallows return to Capistrano.
4. When it comes to the opposite sex, do you feel you have a grasp on 'em -- or do they continue to just surprise you? Always surprises. Which isn't a bad thing.
5. What is your home town famous for? If you believe Frank Sinatra (and you'd better): The Wrigley Building and the Union Stockyard. I'd also add Michael Jordan, Oprah and my beloved Cubs.
6. How many romantic relationships have you had? Three that really touched my heart.
7. What's the best concert that you've ever been to? Paul McCartney in 2002. It was the first show I'd attended after 9/11 and his first tour since he'd lost Linda. There was so much emotion in the United Center that night, flowing to and from the stage.
8. Which famous person would you like to meet? Why? Bill Clinton. Because he's Bill Clinton, and we could talk about everything from conditions in Haiti to Rahm Emmanuel's potty mouth to classic movies to the Arlington Hotel in Hot Springs to ... And I'd still like to give him a piece of mind about the Lewinsky thing.
9. Has a newspaper or television reporter ever interviewed you? If so, what were the circumstances and what did you think when you read or saw what you said? I recently refused to be on TV to discuss how I feel about President Obama's performance in office. Does that count?
Hehe, a tequila hangover sister! Bill Clinton? Really?? Curious what your fav film was this year then? LOL @ swallows...have a great weekend Gal!
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you for declining that interview.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!

I saw Paul in that 2002 tour as well. It was fabulous. Other than that stupid beginning with the scarfs...
ReplyDeleteI can remember when school breaks were too long. Not anymore, they fly by now!
