The Wednesday Whimsy

(I'm so lost. I have no idea what day of the week it is anymore - I had to check and see which daily i did yesterday.)

We've all wanted to be in a movie at some point. If you could be any existing or added character in any movie, what would it be?
Lina Lamont, I suppose, but Jean Hagen did quite well. See the second question. And um... let's see... adding myself? I would like to be an extra. I would love go around being an extra in movies and not telling anyone and seeing if anyone would catch me in the background. Hint hint, John... The only problem is that I get very self-conscious on camera. But I suppose if it wasn't pointed at me, I'd be okay.

Have you ever dreamed of being a star of the stage? Tell us about it.
I have always dreamt of playing Lina Lamont in Singin' in the Rain. It is my dream role.

I also want to put on a Very Awful One-Woman Show of 1776 where I play "all the parts, including Mabel" (family joke). 1776 only has two female parts, plus about a million male ones. I think it has the potential to be disastrous. Excellent!

Other dream roles include Eulalie MacKechnie Shinn and any other non-starring comedic role that doesn't require me to sing well.

I have great theatrical dreams but very little talent and a tendency to sweat and stammer when I get nervous. Plus, I never hear about auditions, I only hear about the production when it's being performed and have to go and say "I could've been a better Lina than her."

No one can convince me that they didn't act up to get attention as a child. Tell us a story about your childhood theatrics.
Hmmm. I'm sure my mom or sister could come up with some, but they aren't coming to me. How about it, you two?

Describe a recent dream.
I dreamt that it was the last day of a class in high school. I hadn't been all semester because I didn't care. Then they announced that there was going to be a final over things discussed in class and I got really worried. I left the classroom and discovered I was on a cruise ship. Then Oscar, a friend from high school, was chasing me around the ship and trying to kiss me.
