White noise. Computer hum. But these are just weekdays. What do you watch?: My own keyboard, white noise and computer screen. What do you drink?: Today? Vintage Natural Spring Water. It's sodium-free. What do you smoke?: Nothing. What do you take?: Breaks. And lot of them, too. What do you believe in?: The surrealism of corporate aesthetics as it relates to swivel chairs and post-it notes. When We Were 16 Where were you?: Not at work.What were you?: I was hopeful. What did you wear?: Opinions like badges. What did you listen to?: My parents. It's true. I admit it. What did you watch?: The Cosby Show on prime time, I think. What did you love?: Definitely not school. What did you hate?: School, mostly. What did you drink?: I didn't. As I said, I listened to my parents. Strange? Maybe so. What did you smoke?: Nothing. But my best friend at the time, Kiki, was up to a pack a day. She usually smoked outside the band room. What did you take?: Lunch to school. Pictures for the newspaper. The dog out. What did you want to be?: Famous. Who did you fight?: Myself. I know this because I still do it even now. Who/What did you believe in?: Destiny. It sounds silly (and is is) but I believed in it anyway. That was before I experienced my first love and consequently my first real heartache. Hold on while I turn up this Patsy Cline song. Pancakes with that. Where did you go?: To school. For pizza. The mall. The usual. It was central Pennsylvania after all. I think I liked Bennetton clothing a lot. It was before they did those ads from death row. What did you learn?: That no one hands you anything. And if they do, you pay the price for it later by not knowing how to succeed on your own. |
