2. I have an obsession with Buffy the Vampire Slayer. So much, in fact, that I used to think I was the Slayer.
3. I love movies from the 80s, including Stand By Me, The Breakfast Club, Top Gun and The Goonies. Fucking classics.
4. I have never smoked or done drugs. I do not plan on smoking ever. I just don’t get it.
5. Over the past 17 years, I have gone from wanting to be a vet to a scientist, to a writer, to an actress to a photographer to an animal trainer. I still bounce back between these sometimes.
6. I have an extremely overactive imagination. I sometimes have to stop and think if something happened in real life, or if I made it up. I’m not sure that’s healthy.
7. I’m a drama queen. To the extreme.
8. I love reading, although I barely have time to do any pleasure reading during the year. I plan on getting through Shardik by Richard Adams, and The Last Unicorn sometime in the next month.

10. When I was in the 5th grade, I was the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz.
11. Everyone wanted to be Dorothy. I adored the Wicked Witch.

39. All my life, all I wanted was a dog. When I was in nursery school I acted like a dog. I would walk around the house on all fours and bark and eat out of bowls on the floor. My plan I was to make my parents take me to see a therapist, who I was sure would tell my parents the only cure would be to get me a dog.

41. Two weeks later, my parents took him away from me because they said he was too much work.
42. 6 months earlier, I had just gotten a hamster.
