Return of the List of Four

by Dave on September 7, 2006

Dateline: February 20, 2006. My sister Marianne sits down to write her List of Four and sends it off to my twodinks.com email. What she doesn’t realize is that I never bothered to set it up. So here is her post, a mere one hundred and ninety nine days later.

FOUR JOBS I’VE HAD
  1. Wendy’s - You know, pretty much everything except grill and emptying those heavy fryers. Including freezing my keister off while working at the drive through window.
  2. The Agency- Yeah, a completely lame and non-descript name of a now defunct home health care company.  I scheduled home health aides, nurses, PTs and OTs to go on home health care visits. Lesson learned: do everything in your power to take care of your loved ones on your own.
  3. Lerner’s of New York – I liked this job because of the discount on clothing. I did not like this job because at Christmas it was CRAZY. I actually witnessed a customer attack (choke) another customer over a line dispute.
  4. IKRON – I don’t even remember what it stands for. It was my first job out of graduate school. I was in charge of a small group of psychiatric patients in a “partial hospitalization program” I was “laid off” the day a new boss started. He cut the program I was running and actually said to me “unfortunately my first day is your last”.
FOUR MOVIES I CAN WATCH OVER AND OVER
  1. Tommy Boy, CRACKS ME UP
  2. Pirates of the Caribbean, great score and Johnny Depp is very entertaining in it
  3. Apparently I can watch Cinderella, Incredibles, and Lion King etc etc over and over again.
  4. Ummmm, can’t really think of anything else.
FOUR PLACES I’VE LIVED
  1. Anne Frank House.  I mean Kirtley Ave in Cincinnati. We lived on the 2nd floor of a small Tudor house.  The apartment used every available square inch. This included a small room down a long, slant ceiling, hallway. The room didn’t have heat or AC and was affectionately dubbed the Anne Frank room.
  2. Xavier Village apartments. Lived there my Junior year at XU with three other girls.  Two were good friends and the other was someone one we found.  The third was a mistake.
  3. Deer Track Road- Our first house seemed big after the Anne Frank Apartment. Then after having three kids it got real tiny.
FOUR TV SHOWS I WATCH REGULARLY
  1. LOST
  2. 24
  3. Desperate Housewives
  4. Grey’s Anatomy
FOUR PLACES I’VE VACATIONED
  1. Hawaii, Maui and Kauai
  2. Arizona, Sedona, Grand Canyon
  3. Jackson Hole, WY
  4. Hilton Head, SC
FOUR OF MY FAVORITE DISHES (narrow it down?)
  1. Roast Beef
  2. Tetrazinni
  3. Spaghetti
  4. Chicken Continental
SITES I VISIT DAILY
  1. CKW
  2. They call me daddy
  3. 2 dinks (just hoping)
  4. Dad Gone Mad, fairly often
FOUR ALBUMS I TRULY ENJOY
  1. Norah Jones, whatever it is called
  2. Moving Pictures, Rush
  3. BNL, ummm I’ll go with Maroon
  4. Clapton, unplugged
FOUR PLACES I’D RATHER BE
  1. Hilton Head, on the beach with Jim and the kids
  2. Sedona, with Jim
  3. Anywhere warm and with no responsibilities
  4. And, right here.
