Got this from Ted<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Five snacks I enjoy in a perfect, non weight-gaining world:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cheese cake
\nChips and salsa
\nChoclate ice cream with chocolate jimmies
\nCheese and crackers
\nPita and hummus<\/p>\n

Five snacks I enjoy in the real world:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yeah, so, see above. But okay, I’ll play along:<\/p>\n

Carrot sticks and hummus
\nWeight Watchers ice cream sandwiches
\nPeaches (my favorite fruit ever)
\nDannon Light ‘n Fit yogart (either vanilla or strawberry\/kiwi)
\nSlices of bell pepper with balsalmic vinaigrette<\/p>\n

Five things I would do if I were a billionaire:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Travel. Mainly to third world countries in the Middle East and Central Asia. Places I would go: I would spend no less than a year in Iran. I would travel through Iraq, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Mongolia, Afghanistan, Syria, Kazakhstan … any “stan” at all, I’m there.<\/p>\n

Buy a couple houses. I would buy an apartment in New York – either on the upper West or in Tribeca. I would buy a cottage in County Mayo. I would buy a beach house in Rhode Island. I’d keep an apartment in Chicago.<\/p>\n

Support a theatre company. There are so many – so I would have to think specifically about which one I wanted to invest in. Maybe the Arden Theatre<\/a> in Philadelphia, a company I admire. Or maybe another one. Who knows. But I would invest in a company, an ensemble, doing work I believed in. Along with that, I would set up scholarships for young actors.<\/p>\n

On a frivolous note, at one of my homes, I would have the best roller coaster on the planet built in my backyard. I would ride it every day.<\/p>\n

I’d set up a trust fund for Cashel<\/p>\n

Five (non-academic) jobs that I have had:<\/strong><\/p>\n

— AOL chat host backstage at Comic Relief
\n— Factory worker
\n— Library page
\n— one-night-only lingerie model at a private party held at some random house where the lingerie company hosted a party for husbands to come and buy crap for their wives (one of the funniest and bleakest nights of my life)
\n— waitress<\/p>\n

Five habits:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Waking up at 5:30 a.m.
\nwriting (journal, blog, whatever)
\nSome OCD behavior that I don’t care to share
\nmaking my bed
\nidolizing\/idealizing whomever I am in love with<\/p>\n

Five places I have lived:<\/strong><\/p>\n

San Francisco
\nPhiladelphia
\nLos Angeles
\nChicago
\nNew York<\/p>\n

Five people I want to get to know better <\/strong><\/p>\n

I think this is supposed to be bloggers I tag with the meme – but I don’t really tag people (consider yourself tagged) – so I’ll take it another way:<\/p>\n

Dean Stockwell
\nJason Beghe
\nAngelina Jolie
\nJohn Banville
