Firsts

Real Holiday: I’m guessing this is “holiday” as in vacation. I went to Disneyland when I was 2, does that count as “real”?
Best Friend: Bridget, we seriously were connected at the hip.
Award: I don’t remember my first award cause it was probably some lame kindergarten thing they give everyone at some point to make kids feel good about themselves. I did win the city-wide lip-sync contest 3 years in a row as a kid way before lip-sync battles became cool. (Eat your heart out, Jimmy Fallon.)
Sport: Never did sports. Dancer.
Concert: The Beach Boys

…and/or Emma Stone.

Favorites

Film: One does not simply pick a favorite film. My top films usually have one or more of the following: 1. singing and dancing 2. fantasy/sci-fi/adventure elements. For the sake of answering the question (cause I hate when people don’t answer the question!), I’ll say Beauty and the Beast. I actually just blogged about how that movie was the inspiration for my internet identity.
TV Show: One does not simply pick a favorite TV show. Top ones include Sherlock, How I Met Your Mother, Arrested Development, Firefly, and at the moment, Poldark.
Color: One does not simply – jk, it’s blue.
Song: Ok, seriously, one does not simply pick a favorite song. Some include “Mr. Blue Sky” by ELO, “Scenes from an Italian Restaurant” by Billy Joel, basically the entire “Rumors” album by Fleetwood Mac (do I sound like a 40-year-old woman yet?), “Roll Away Your Stone” by Mumford & Sons, “Furr” by Blitzen Trapper…so many more….
Restaurant: Place called Thyme Square in Quincy, IL
Shop: Wild Rumpus Books for Children in Minneapolis, MN
Books: Now this says books, plural. How nice! Let’s see… the Harry Potter series, anything by Jasper Fforde, Frankenstein, A Tale of Two Cities, I could go on…
