What's the biggest frustration in your life right now?

Can I please answer this question on the hour, every hour, for the rest of the day?

UGH.

Would you prefer fame or respect? Why?

Ew. I have to choose? Fine. Then I'm going with respect, which, I realize, if you read my other blog is probably a shocking answer.

What’s the hardest part about looking for a new job?

I'm not a big fan of interviews, considering that in my last job interview, the person actually asked:

"So what's your relationship like with your mother?"

Of course, now I work here, so I guess my answer was acceptable.

Which NFL team are you rooting for this season? Who do you think will make it to the Super Bowl?

I'm rooting for the NINERS. Duh.

Re: Super Bowl... Minnesota looked good yesterday, but I don't think they can pull it off. If the Pats make it, I'll kill myself, but I think they have a good shot at it. Steelers? Ugh. This is making me depressed.

What is your dream job? Do you think you’ll ever have it?

I'd like to make enough money writing (books, essays, scripts etc.) to support myself so that I am mostly working for myself and doing what I love.

Do I think I'll ever have it? I can't imagine anything more depressing than NOT having it.

I honestly believe the world is going to end in 2012 and I treat my finances accordingly. Aka: nothing.

Laughing. Feeling comfortable. Being right. ;)

What’s your best tip for a beautiful body?

Okay, so my original really-stupid and completely off-the-cuff response to this question was "confidence," but then I just saw that SFist linked to this post in Day Around the Bay, and I want a do-over and since it's my blog, I'm just going to allow myself one. Because really. CONFIDENCE? Really?! I can so do better than that.

What's my best tip for a beautiful body?

First: Put down the Ben & Jerry's.

Second: Put on Mousercise. Or whatever it is you do to exercise. Personally, I've found the 7-minute rendition of Mickey and Goofy telling me to skip around the room, do arm circles and jump up and down is about all I can handle when it comes to keeping fit. Plus: the guy I'm dating likes when I do it just wearing a silk slip.

Third: Wear clothes that flatter you. This means no spandex. Especially you who is STILL sitting there eating directly out of the ice cream carton. PUT IT DOWN ALREADY.

Fourth: Okay fine. Have a little confidence. It does go a long ways.

Five: You. The one who just ate an entire pint of Cake Batter ice cream while reading this post? Try The Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches. 1.5 fat grams and so delicious.

What do you wear to feel confident?

I guess it depends on what I'm doing... A wetsuit, a tennis skirt (let's be honest, the tennis skirt is the best reason I can think of to play tennis), a snowboarding jacket, a niners' hoodie, high heels, tank top and jeans, flip flops, a comfy oversized sweater, nothing...

I just have to be comfortable, no matter what. That's my only thing.
