When I was little I had a recurring dream where Gambit from the X-Men would try to rob me.

His smile there reminds me of Bill's smile in the opening sequence.

I think mine is a heron. When I was little I was in this marshy park with my parents and I wandered off the path a bit to the water. And I guess I moved some reeds or something because this HUGE HERON flew out from behind some tall grass and glided all majestic and everything over the water.

I feel weird when someone's perfume smells like something I want to eat. This happens with hand soap sometimes, too.

I'm not a fan of slasher horror. I tend to like supernatural or surreal horror, or horror in which things don't necessarily obey the rules of the world as I know them.

Maybe what you took for being unimpressed was actually the guy's sudden shattering realization that no matter how sexy his voice is, he will never be the guy who came up with the perfect pun for his cat's name.

I had a dream I was a dragon. And I could breathe fire. And I destroyed a whole little village of thatched huts.

Moore is probably my favorite short-story writer, too, though it's a toss-up between her and George Saunders. Birds of America is such a completely solid set of short stories. I hope she comes out with something new sometime soon.

Also eternity.

Yeah, Giant Centipedes, man. I saw the video of one eating a mouse and all you hear is the poor mouse squeaking. I saw another video of a Giant Centipede crawling to the ceiling of a cave and grabbing a bat(!) mid-flight.

Oh I thought you had multiple-personality disorder and you switched personalities mid-sentence to concur with your other personality about not listening to music anymore.

It pisses me off when my supervisor walks by my desk and sees that I'm not working. And then I have to choose between looking guilty by minimizing stuff, or just defiantly keeping all my non-work-related tabs open. Like, the nerve of that guy!

Oh God I immediately warmed to "Hard to Find." Like first-stanza immediately. And by "warmed to" I mean "almost had an embarrassing breakdown in a burrito place to."
