First aim screen name
I didn't have aim BUT my first email account was nicolaiandpup@gmail.com. Which was aspirational. I didn’t have a dog but I wanted one!
Favorite animal and WHY
Elephants. They have such a good memory and they always know where trees and water are. How could you not be wowed by an elephant?
One movie you wish you were in
The Princess Bride. Swap me in for Carol Kane!
Do you have any self care rituals
I’m always reading something, I always have flowers in my apartment, I’m always giving myself a little head/neck massage, I try to dance, I try to run. I live near the Angelika so every now and then I’ll take myself out for a movie and popcorn.
Favorite 3 things to eat right now
Coconut yogurt, Dried Strawberries, Salad Nicoise.
Two books you’d recommend to a friend
Slow Days Fast Company by Eve Babitz and A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway.
Who do you call the most
I call my best friend from high school approximately a billion times a day. Anytime I’m forced to wait in a line or something happens or nothing happens, I’ll call her.
