And then there's my favorite section of Vanity Fair- the Proust Questionnaire. Such pressure! You don't want to be the dud celebrity with the trite answers, do you? I also love "My Stuff" in Vanity Fair.
Mmm, I always try to imagine how mine would sound- "Mascara- none, Andrea Lash #53 falsies". "Nail Polish- Toes always OPI Thrill of Brazil, fingers usually pink, like Jackie O. said" "Pet- Golden Retriever" "Sheets- must be white 400 thread count" etc.
Anyway, when I was skipping my workout, and stressing but not sleeping this morning I came up with my own quiz. A compatibility quiz of sorts.
Ready?

- The Queen is Dead, The Smiths. The soundtrack to disaffected suburban youth.
- August & Everything After, Counting Crows. The soundtrack to college all-nighters.
- Oh, Inverted World, The Shins. The soundtrack to stoning out in graduate school.
- Alligator, The National. The soundtrack to falling in love with Trevor.

Both, obvs... just like you, my dear!
Samma, you'll be delighted to know that on my long drive to NC yesterday, I couldn't decide what music to play, and then thought 'Wait! I'll play my five deserted island albums from Samma's blog!' Then I made the executive decision to replace The Shins' Oh, Inverted World with their album Chutes Too Narrow for my island choice... hope it's okay to switch on you ;-)
