Wildest Dreams

1) In this song, a tall, handsome man asks Taylor Swift to drive away with him to escape the crowds. Where were you headed when you most recently got behind the wheel? I was going to get coffee

2) She sings about memories of a romance that just "follow you around." Is anyone special on your mind this morning? (It doesn't have to be a romantic partner.) not especially

3) The lyrics reference sunset. Now that it gets dark earlier, do you find yourself watching the sun set more often? yes, it frequently is setting as I'm driving home from school

4) The video for this song takes place on a movie set. Swift said it was inspired by tales of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton embarking on a love affair while co-starring in Cleopatra. Elizabeth and Richard fell in love in Rome, while this video was filmed outside of Gaborone, Botswana. In your wildest dreams, which of these exotic locales would you rather visit: Rome or Gaborone? Rome
 
5) In homage to Elizabeth Taylor, Swift went from blonde to brunette for the video. Do you have an appointment with a stylist between now and year end? not with a hair stylist, but with a manicurist

6) Both Taylors (Swift and Elizabeth) often wore the color purple. What color dominates your wardrobe? I don't have a dominant color
 
7) In the video, Taylor Swift's leading man is Scott Eastwood, son of Clint. Though not as famous as his dad, Scott works steadily and has more than 30 TV and movie credits. Can you think of another second-generation performer who followed his or her parent into show business? John and Joan Cusack, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Anniston, Charlie Sheen and Emilio Esteves

8) In 2014, when "Wildest Dreams" topped the charts, Paul McCartney had to reschedule tour dates so he could recover from a bout with the flu. How are you feeling this morning? Any coughs, sneezes, sniffles? my nose is a little stuffy but it's not a cold, it's overcompensation for dry air and I need to dig out my humidifier

9) Random question: How many different zip codes have you lived in throughout your life? three zip codes and one international postal code

I've got two humidifiers going and STILL my skin is dry! (I know, I'm such a baby.)

I'd forgotten about Jennifer Aniston's dad. Matthew Perry's dad was an actor, too. Two nepo-baby Friends.

#3 Hopefully I will remember to go and take some sunset photos tonight before I head back to Connecticut for the winter.
#7 I’m horrible with these kind of questions, I just don’t follow entertainment news.
#9 So far I’m the only one who stayed put.

With every household here having it's own coffeemaker, I was suprised by answer #1. Must be very inconvenient to drive somewhere to get a coffee... unless you had a coffee appointment of course.

We don't have a humidifier, but I use a lot of handlotion.
