Four Things (That Aren’t About Me Being A Queer Or My Dad Being In Prison)

January 25, 2006

Courtesy of Shaun and Hans.

Four jobs I’ve had:

  • Hostess, Western Sizzlin’ (the restaurant’s manager “Kayren” put me on the schedule under “Hostesses”)
  • Sales Associate, “Pottery Barn”:http://www.potterybarn.com
  • Production Assistant, Nameless Savannah Print Shop
  • Web Designer, “Silverpoint”:http://www.silverpoint.net

Four movies I can watch over and over:

  • Office Space
  • Flawless (fast-forwarding through any scene Philip Seymour Hoffman isn’t in)
  • Mommie Dearest
  • Being There

Four places I’ve lived (Incidentally, the only four places I’ve lived):

  • Bay Minette, AL
  • Savannah, GA
  • Tybee Island, GA
  • Baltimore, MD

Four TV shows I love:

  • The West Wing
  • Family Guy
  • Six Feet Under
  • Curb Your Enthusiasm

Four places I’ve vacationed:

  • Orlando (who hasn’t?)
  • New Orleans (granted, it was so close we went a lot, but sometimes we actually touristed it up.)
  • Guntersville (lovely)
  • Demopolis, AL (when you live in Baltimore, farm life is a definite vacation)

Four of my favorite dishes:

  • Gumbo
  • Steamed dumplings (from basically any Chinese joint)
  • Cobbler, all cobblers
  • Anything, and everything served at the Sundae Café on Tybee Island

Four sites I visit daily:

  • “Google”:http://youdontknowthisurl.com
  • My Mint installation
  • “Macsurfer”:http://www.macsurfer.com
  • “Americablog”:http://www.americablog.com

Four places I would rather be right now:

  • The farm
  • Tybee Island
  • Home
  • Four months from now

Four bloggers I am tagging:

Sorry, the meme stops here, fellas—I still feel guilty for forwarding the last one!

    Phillip Seymour Hoffman, surely? I mean I know Phillip Baker Hall is good, but even he would have trouble pulling off a drag queen…

    (uh, in an acting sense of course)

    Oof, that’s hilarious. But now that you mention it, I kind of want to see Phillip Baker Hall in that role…

    When did you live in Savannah? I used live there, too.

    What, no Will & Grace?

    You know, it’s funny that you should mention that. I don’t actually know any gay people who watch Will & Grace. I admit I watched it several times when it first came out (what’s this? Fags on a channel other than Showtime?) but it’s really too, well, straight for me. Give me some David-and-Keith-in-Six-Feet-Under any day.

    BJ: I lived in Savannah 1999-2002, Tybee Island 2002-2004.

Have your say
