Random Things, Part 1

Me reenacting a scene from The Little Mermaid in Montauk Yesterday I was reading Avon's blog, avonromanceblog.blogspot.com, and saw editor extraordinaire Lucia Macro's post on random things about herself.  Our department was inspired, so this week we'll be posting lists of 10 random things you might not know about us.  I'm up first, so here goes!

1) I am a music snob, but I have been known to loop Lady Gaga during big projects throughout the day.  Pa-pa-pa-poker face.
2) I was a library page in high school and had nicknames for our craziest patrons.   
3) I lived in Spain for 5 months, but didn’t really like Spanish food until I left.
4) I watched too much Masterpiece Theater as a teen, and had a fake English accent through most of high school.
5) I won’t read chick lit, but I will watch any chick flick that’s ever been made.  Even 27 Dresses.
6) In college, my honors thesis was a collection of poetry.
7) Bourbon is my favorite drink, with whiskey a close second. 
8) I have a cut-out of True Blood’s Alexander Skarsgård pasted to the wall of my cubicle. 
9) I worked at a hedge fund for 6 weeks.  One of my duties consisted of buying my boss marzipan and jelly beans. 
10) I love doing obscure impersonations.  My best might be Gloria Swanson from Sunset Boulevard.  “No one leaves a staaaar! That’s what makes them a staaaar!”
