Joy tagged me for this one, and I have to admit that I'm kind of excited about it! It's been a long time since there's been a "get to know me" meme around. And, since this IS my playground, and I clearly like talking about myself (why else would I have a blog)... well, YOU put two and two together.

Four Jobs I've Held:
- I was a Clinique girl. Yup, I wore the fake lab jacket. And when I went to work for them, pants were sitll not OK yet. That was a fun (and lucrative) job.
- I was an agency girl. Oh, shut UP - get your minds out of the gutter. I ran several accounts for a leading direct marketing agency.
- I spent two summers as a camp counselor for preschoolers. I adored doing it, with all the ups and downs. And even though we don't want kids of our own, I still sometimes think I should have been a teacher. Watching little kids learn is mesmerizing.
- I was... well... a 'junk mailer'. I planned mailings for several catalog companies. So you can blame me for your mailman's annual Christmas hernia.
Four Films I Could Watch Ad Infinitum:
Four Places I've Lived... or in my case, the progression of where I got where I am
Tehran, Iran -> Westbury, NY -> Los Angeles, CA -> Washington, DC -> San Diego, CA -> San Francisco, CA
Four TV Series I Like:
- The West Wing. I'm so sad it's being cancelled.
- Grey's Anatomy. McDreamy. McLove It. Seriously.
- House. Hugh Laurie ROCKS.
- L & O: Criminal Intent. D'Onofrio fascinates me.
Four Places I've Been on Vacation:
- Iran
- Kona
- Bahia de Los Angeles, Mexico
- Puerto Rico
Four Foods I Love: (Seriously? This is a FOOD BLOG...)
- Ghormeh Sabzi
- A Pan-seared Ribeye Steak
- Takahashi-san's Ume Temaki with Shiso & Shark Fin... damn, I'm drooling on the computer.
- Starbucks' Brownies au Caramel Ice Cream. Good thing it's been discontinued. :-(
Four Sites I Visit Daily:
- PopSugar... it's my once daily celeb fix. So shoot me
- Dooce. I get really bummed when Heather doesn't update
- CraigsList (particularly the Pet section - just to make sure no Frenchies are looking for homes)
- SFGate... despite what C thinks, I really do pay attention to the news. Sometimes.
Four Places I'd Rather Be Right Now:
- On our roofdeck, book in hand
- Somewhere warm... book in hand
- On the water...
- Washington, DC.
I'm not tagging anyone else for this meme, just because I think everyone's been tagged already. But, if you haven't, please take this as an open invitation to respond!
