Back in the Stone Age (2006), the Safranit tagged me with a meme. Now, I am smart enough to know one never says no to a librarian (even if one does risk a late-fee):
Four jobs I've had:
*Stripper. No, not that kind. Rubylith in a print shop type stripper.
*Shooting instructor at the National Olympic Range. I specialized in teaching women, politicians, and senior citizens.
*Youth group leader. Surprising considering how little I like teenagers in large groups.
*Off-Off Broadway actress with the Black Spectrum Theater and with Miriam Kressyn's Yiddish Theatre Troupe.
Four movies I can watch over and over:
To Be or Not To Be (Mel Brooks version)
Stevie (starring Glenda Jackson as Stevie Smith)
HaLahaka (especially the really bad English subtitles)
Bride and Prejudice (I love Bollywood)
Four places I have lived:
Queens, NY
Brooklyn, NY
Neve Tzuf, Israel
Har Bracha, Israel
Pretty sad that--that's *all* the places I've ever lived. If I'd had to stretch it to five I could have broken Queens down into Laurelton (birth-5) and
Kew Garden Hills (5-20), but after that, I'd have to count vacations as living.
Four television shows I love to watch:
Torchwood (OK, the plots so far stink. Fiction me some science, guys. Though the last few eps didn't stink quite so ripely. But still--John
Barrowman eye candy? Who can resist that?)
Dr Who (although I worry about the new companion's pineapple hair)
Eight is Enough (now if I could only figure out how to save off AOL TV)
Histeria (ditto)
Four places I have been on vacation:
I don't do vacations, so 4 places I've been this year on work trips, with sight-seeing attached:
Mexico City
Paris
Athens
Toronto
Four of my favorite dishes:
seitan "pork" from Buddha Bodai in Manhattan (5 Mott St.)
extra-hot tacos from Barbacoa in Maxico City (Jules Verne Ave.)
fresh criossants with butter for breakfast in Paris
warm chocolate bomb from Umami (Eglinton Ave., Toronto)
Four websites I visit daily:
Rotter.net
Bloglines
Gmail
Mininova torrents
Four places I would rather be right now:
Anywhere, any time in New York City (either you're born a New Yorker, no matter where the birth physically took place, or you're not. I was, both mentally and physically)
Walking the Israel National Trail (well, that's planned for Wednesday)
Driving between Binghampton and Buffalo in the early morning fog
Mexico City
Stripper...yeah, right!
