I like to steal things.
Today I'm stealing from Julia Allison, who you may recognize as the white girl the far right took so much umbrage with Harold Ford Jr. dating. And she used to write a sex column. And I didn't really steal this from her since she stole it from The New Yorker, but why not give her some more traffic from all six of my loyal readers?
Name: Josephine Zohny
Age: 22
Job: Publicist by day/Writer by night
Neighborhood: Roosevelt Island. Whut.
Who's your favorite New Yorker, living or dead, real or fictional? Eloise. Have you ever been in The Plaza?
What's the best meal you've eaten in New York? Something at Luna's before it closed down. Oh my god, they used to bring me out so much free food and aperitifs. And now they're gone and I've died a little inside.
In one sentence, what do you actually do all day in your job? I talk (and write) a lot of shit, occasionally some of it is true.
Where do you get your coffee? My kitchen.
What's the last thing you saw on Broadway? Hairspray, with Jarrod.
Do you give money to panhandlers? Only if they have babies or dogs with them.
What's your drink? red wine
How often do you prepare your own meals? Pretty regularly and I often feed my friends. Sam's the only one to claim illness as a result, so I think I'm doing alright.
What's your favorite medication? any form of 'tussin. Yum.
What's hanging above your sofa? Framed James Brown, Michael Jackson and The Beatles vinyl albums. There's another framed Roberta flack in the kitchen.
How much is too much to spend on a haircut? Anything more than whatever Hair on Astor is charging these days.
When's bedtime? Lately, never. It's been a long week.
Brunch: pro or con? Pro. Very pro. Mimosa's all around!
What's your thread count? My sheets cost $5 and they're from a Doctor Leonard's catalog. You know, for the old people? They're shiny and awesome.
What do you hate most about living in New York? not being able to drive and listen the radio, people who never go above 14th street, everybody in Park Slope
What's your brand of jeans? If I'm in the midst of a "skinny for me" point in my life, Seven jeans are great. If I'm not and my booty is overflowing from out of the back of the Sevens, Immortality jeans are fab.
When was the last time you drove a car? A month ago? That sounds about right.
Who should be the next president? John Edwards
Times, Post, or Daily News? All three. The latter are necessary evils.
Yankees or Mets? Yankees
What makes someone a New Yorker? Being crazy-- mostly in a good way.

While I've never partaken of a meal in New York, I have to say my best meal was at a little hole in the wall in Istanbul. I can still imagine the taste, even if I can't remember how to pronounce it.
Happy to be one of the six... hundred? Nifty.
Sleep!
