...because the questions are already posted and I like them and I'll probably be distracted tomorrow.

1) What fictional character would you like to sit down and have dinner with, and why?
My immediate thought was Darcy from Pride and Prejudice, or Thornton from North and South, but if I think about it longer, my answer will probably change.

2) What three famous people would you like to invite to a small party you're throwing, and why?
Sting, the Obamas (I'm counting them as one, I do what I want!), and NYCBallet dancer Sara Mearns. Yes, an odd combination, but I'd really like to meet them all.

3) What historical figure do you wish you could have met?
Jane Austen comes to mind, but again, I need to think about this more.

4) What actor would you like to have participate in your next games night?
Ryan Reynolds. Second choice - Robert Downey Jr

5) If you could have any band perform at your next birthday party, which band would it be?
Mumford and Sons. Or Sting, or Josh Groban.
