Q: Would you drink an entire bottle of hot sauce for $1000?
A: Absolutely not. One of my best friends in high school DIED because his step father poured a bottle of hot sauce down his throat as a punishment. Both of his lungs and his esophogus were severely damaged. My friend held on for quite some time and went through quite a few surgeries, but eventually his lungs gave out. When I see college students doing stupid things like daring each other to drink hot sauce, I want to scream.

Okay, that totally changes my answer.

I'm seriously gonna go edit it now.

I don't have pockets! I'm wearing a blue sundress over leggings and a dance top.

Imagine my surprise.

Imagine my surprise.

Yeah, I know. I'm so unpredictable! This is actually the second time THIS WEEK I've worn the same dress. I'm so boring now. It actually feels REALLY weird to wear jeans after wearing nothing but dance gear and dresses for so long.

Also, I'm incredibly sorry that you lost your friend, and that your friend lost his life, particularly in such cruel and no doubt painful circumstances.

Yeah. I didn't find out his stepfather did it until his funeral. My friend always joked around that he did it on a dare and he was a dumb kid. I had no idea.

Bernie was 19.

And don't feel bad about your answer, or feel the need to change it. Most people don't realize how dangerous ingesting large amounts of hot sauce can be... which is why its so upsetting when I see stupid college kids doing stupid things.

I totally hear you with the hugging thing. Last night was opening night of Medea, and we were all sitting around in the green room for our pre show meeting. I looked around and realized that everyone was either in someone's lap or leaning on someone or holding someone else's hand. I love that closeness in theater :)

How did it go?

*g* I'm doing the final scene for my Voice class. We're working on period styles using the Lessac system. I thought about you when we picked it.

And yeah, theatre people have a very different definition of "personal bubble." I think dancers do too. I have a lot of dance experience, and you quickly get over any "don't touch me THERE!" issues in dance. A common phrase for us is "put your hands where they need to go in order to do this lift. Don't worry about it."

OMG it was AMAZING!!! It was everything I hoped for in my first leading role. All of the performances were great, and I got nominated for the Irene Ryan competition at ACTF in January :)

I hope your final scene goes well :) I can't wait for the next update of "To Conceal a Fox"!

Q: Are you right-handed or left-handed?
A: Right handed, though I'm fairly decent at using my left hand as well. I broke my right wrist once which forced me to become ambidexterious.

Same thing happened to me! My right hand got operated, so I could only use my left! It looked so horrible before, but it's okay now. I'm glad that it adapted with use. Isn't it funny how that can happen?

Q: Are you a friendly person?
A: I'm friendly, but I'm trying to cut back on being everyones best friend. There was a time when I was incredibly nice to EVERYONE and all it got me was stalkers. Now I'm POLITE to everyone, and only incredibly nice to my friends.

I hear you on the stalker thing! You just can't be too friendly anymore! It's like, you look at a new person and then you haveto wonder, 'friend or stalker/foe?'

Great responses!

My right wrist got really crunched up in an auto accident and it took a long time to heal. After a few weeks of being a lefty people kept telling me "good thing your right wrist is the one that's broken, since you're left handed!" Apparently a lot of people who have a dominant hand injury, never bother to use the non-dominant hand. That would drive me crazy! I'm not a big fan of asking people to do things for me, so I figured out every single thing I could do on my own. I can put on pantyhose with one hand. I can tie my shoes. I can open my child-proof pill bottles. I can write. Only thing that was really hard was curling my hair (I was in a show at the time). I had to have help for that. :(

And yeah, I've gotten wicked burned by being too friendly. Apparently you don't want to exude the "lets be best friends!" aura. Aiming for "lets be aquaintences and see how that goes!" is a much safer route.
