I hope everyone had a great 4th. Having done our cookout and partying last weekend, we didn’t even leave the house except to step out onto the front porch to watch the neighbors shoot off fireworks. And as you can tell from my lack of blogging the past couple of days, I’ve been in the writing cave. I’ve written 33 pages in the past two days. I’m really pushing to have a rough draft done by the time I head to San Fran so I can do editing on the train.
You know how you get those meme things in e-mail and are tagged by other bloggers all the time. You know the ones that ask things like — tell us six random things about you? Well, I’ve decided to start my own and see how long it takes the world of the Internet to send it back to me. 
So, here goes:
Famous People Meme — Which famous person in each of the following categories would you like to meet?

Okay, if you have a blog, go forth and blog. Everyone, including the bloggers, share your answers in the comments section. I’m verrry curious.

I’ve had fun reading all your responses here and on the various blogs.
Jane, Eric Bana is soooo yummy, especially in Troy. I just saw him The Other Boleyn Girl too. And from LOTR, I’m a Faramir girl.
Cheryl, yes, I would definitely have lots of questions for Jesus. Can you imagine? You could talk forever.
Jen, if I ever met Johnny Depp, I would totally tell him we grew up two counties away from each other. Of course, he’s a bit older than I am. But I think it’s impressive that Johnny and George Clooney are both from Kentucky.
