How could I have forgotten?
The Color Purple. I can watch The Color Purple as many times as it runs on HBO. I think that I can accurately quantify the number of times that I have watched this film as fifty-leven. I can quote this film verbatim from start to finish. One of my favorite quotes is one that can be used in almost any situation. Let me provide some context: Celie asks Sophia how she's doing. Miss Sophia's answer? "Confused."
As you might be; given that I've provided no context for this post. Please see the questionnaire below for more information.
I'm so glad I didn't have to list four books that I can reread over and over.

Izz-OUCH!!!
Dang, Mama Blah Blah... you called me out. I'm gonna have to go all Layer Cake on your ass! Or maybe I'll just do the dang meme. It would serve you right. Okay, let's get this party started:
Four Jobs I've Had:
-Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips (yes, I am that old)
-U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services Junior Fellow
-Temp
-Television network censor
Four Movies I Can Watch Over and Over:
I can only list four, right? This is bad. I am an inveterate rewatcher (and re-reader for that matter). I'll do my best for youse.
-The Matrix (duh!)
-Strictly Ballroom
-Sin City (apparently, as I've watched it every single chance I can get since it's been in heavy rotation on Starz)
-Harry Potter & The Prisoner of Azkaban (for the Shrieking Shack scene, naturally. Plus, Alfonso Cuaron & J.K. Rowling & Alan Rickman? What's not to love?)
Four TV Shows I Love to Watch:
-America's Next Top Model
-Project Runway
-Knitty Gritty
-Medium
Four Places I’ve Been on Vacation:
-San Francisco, CA
-Baja Mexico
-Jamaica
-Napa Valley, CA
Four Favorite Dishes:
-My mother's lasagna
-Pan-fried noodles
-Garlic spinach from the Great Eastern Restaurant in San Francisco (and anything else from there)
-My TNT cookies
Four Websites I Visit Daily:
Go Fug Yourself
Defamer
Slate
Arts & Letters Daily
Four Places I’d Rather Be:
-At home by myself on a rainy, chilly day with a huge pile of great books to be read and beautiful yarn to be knitted and/or crocheted
-With my mother, sisters, cousins and aunts
-On a cruise like the one Bette Davis takes in Now, Voyager and with her fabulous wardrobe
-On a tropical island with clear turquoise waters, white sandy beaches and excellent bar service
Four Bloggers I am Tagging :
Please. I don't know four bloggers that well.
OMG! Is that the point of this meme?
