In Response to Miss Cavendish

While I usually refrain from personal information, I found myself inevitably answering Miss Cavendish's questions:

Books I’ve read/reread recently:

• Angela’s Ashes
• The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
• The Great Gatsby

Things I frequently say:

• Take copious notes.
• That’s fabulous.
• Get out of town!

Music I like:

• Classical (e.g. Debussy, Mozart)
• Musicals and Operas (e.g. The Phantom of the Opera)
• 80s music (e.g. Chicago)
• Jazz

What I couldn’t live without (in absolutely no order):

• My husband, family, and friends
• Designer clothes
• Books
• Knee-length boots
• SPF
• Cream/Lotion (I have painfully dry skin)

What I’d love to do before I expire:

• Write a book
• Raise two healthy, happy, and productive children (preferably a boy and a girl)
• Travel the world (in particular, Asia, Greece, Brazil)
