I’m doing this for Powazek, Leta’s Pseudo Internet Godfather
Four jobs I’ve had
1. Weed whacker on the BYU grounds crew, a job I worked less than three weeks because it was getting in the way of my “other job,†maintaining a 3.9 GPA so that I wouldn’t lose my scholarship.
2. Bread loaf kneader for Great Harvest Bread Company — all the free bread and cookies I wanted. Birthplace of my very first stretch mark.
3. Hostess for Landry’s seafood house where on more than one occasion someone with a 20 dollar bill somehow convinced me to seat them ahead of everyone else.
4. Phone reservationist for Delta Airlines (“Can I fly in the cargo bay with my cat?”)
Four movies I can watch over and over
I wasn’t sure how to answer this because I find it physically impossible to sit through a movie I have already seen no matter how good it is, although I haven’t always been this way. My psychiatrist thinks this is indicative of ADD, but he forgets that I can sit through a movie one time, just not more than that. My mother can’t even get through the opening credits before she becomes so unbearably obsessed with how many countries she could be conquering instead of watching a stupid movie that she has to stand up and take notes just to make herself feel like she’s not wasting her life. All that to say that when I was a kid I used to spend my summer vacations rewinding the same movies over and over again. These are some of those movies:
1. Candleshoe
2. Real Genius
3. Clue
4. Goonies
Four places I have lived
1. Memphis, Tennessee, that one house I was born and raised in
2. A one-bedroom apartment off Sunset Blvd just a few hundred feet from the Viper Room in Los Angeles, California
3. The dorms at the BYU Study Abroad Center across the street from Kensington Palace, London, England
4. Provo, Utah
Four TV shows I love
1. “America’s Next Top Model”
2. “Divine Design”
3. “Real World/Road Rules Challenge”
4. “Trauma: Life in the ER”
Four places I’ve vacationed
1. Destin, Florida
2. Bangor, Northern Ireland
3. Ensenada, Mexico
4. Jackson, Wyoming
Four of my favorite dishes
1. Jongolian Barbecue
2. Frozen pizza from Costco
3. Massaman curry
4. Shrimp tikka masala
Four sites I visit daily
1. Mightygoods
2. byrneunit
3. Daily Oliver
4. Hchamp
Four places I would rather be right now
1. In bed watching the “Today†show while Leta puts Cocoa Puffs in my mouth
2. On a walk through Hyde Park in London
3. At a table by the window, Du-Par’s on Third and Fairfax in Los Angeles
4. Nestled up into Jon’s underarm
Five people I am tagging

2. Pat

4. Bill
5. DORJ!
