Four feathers, four rooms, four things ...

I’m generally hit or miss on memes, but Lucky White Girl tagged me for this one and I thought it was a good way to start 2006:

Four jobs I've had in my past:

• Copy Chief for my college newspaper
• Cashier at Kash ‘n’ Karry (yes, I still remember produce codes)
• Sandwich maker at Einstein’s bagels
• Orientation Leader for the college

Four things I want to do before 2006 is over

• Send out at least one of my short stories to attempt to get published (I need a starting-off point)
• Try my hand at painting
• Start walking again (I can’t say how far or how often though)
• Read 150 books (that’s less than one every other day; I think I can do it! I’m on #3 now!)

Four things I say a lot

• Dern it (I’m hardcore, you see)
• “way” (as in, that’s way cool, I’m way tired …) (thanks, Shea)
• fabulous (thanks, Stacy)
• Yo yo yo … (but usually just to people who talk too much slang, and it’s my way to poke fun at them)

Four things I don't trust:

• Georgie Porgie (that guy that some people voted for)
• Polyester (you have to have at least one inside joke on these things)
• My brain
• Dunedin beer

Four things I do trust:

• Good wine
• My friends
• My heart
• A good book

Four people from history I'd like to meet:

• Audrey Hepburn
• Fred Astaire
• My grandfather on my dad’s side (I’ve been told that I met him, but I was too young to remember)
• F. Scott Fitzgerald

Four best movies of 2005: (everything I thought I saw in 2005 I actually saw in 2004, so this is actually both)

• Paperclips
• A Very Long Engagement
• Broken Flowers (besides the lack of an ending)
• Walk the Line
  

Four best books I read in 2005:

• The Poet and the Murderer by Simon Winchester
• East of Eden by John Steinbeck
• Speaking with the Angel by Nick Hornby
• Goodnight, Nebraska by Tom McNeal

Four people I'm tagging, if they're into it (I've no idea):

• L from Random_Speak
• Glomgold from God has Wheels
• VegasGustan of Home but Far From It
• Autumn of Autumn in New York
