BLOG TOUR ~ CLICK BY LISA BECKER

Love. Marriage. Infidelity. Crises of identity. Death. Cupcakes. The themes in Right Click, the third and final installment in the Click series, couldn't be more pressing for this group of friends as they navigate through their 30's. Another six months have passed since we last eavesdropped on the hilarious, poignant and oftentimes inappropriate email adventures of Renee and friends. As the story continues to unfold, relationships are tested and some need to be set "right" before everyone can find their "happily ever after."

Hi, Sweetie. You sounded downright chipper yesterday talking about your own agency. I'm so glad you have something positive to focus on aside from how lucky you are to have me as a best friend. Oh, and your wedding to Ethan.

So Nick and I have become obsessed with Inside the Actor's Studio. Even though I hate celebrities, I can't seem to tear myself away from this series. My fav part is the James Lipton questions at the end. So much so, that I've put together my responses for when being as hot and fabulous as I am merits inclusion as a guest on the show.

Want to play along?

I'm not surprised that Nick likes the show. He's totally star struck. He is constantly asking me about any celebrities I've worked with and when we saw that actress from The Good Wife, he was giddy. The questionnaire sounds fun. Send the questions over.

He is pretty star struck. It's actually quite sexy. He likes to pretend that I'm a famous actress and he's a fan. But that's a story for another time. Okay, here are the James Lipton questions...

You first.

Okay. Here goes…

· What is your favorite word? Thank you. Okay, it's two words but one phrase that I feel like no one says anymore. As you know, manners are very important to me.

· What is your least favorite word? It’s a tie between “moist” and “panties” with extra "fingernails-down-the-blackboard-style chills" when the two words are used together. <shudder>

· What turns you on? Humor. That's probably why I'm head over heels in love with Jon Stewart...oh, and Ethan too. ;)

· What turns you off? Petty squabbles. The world has enough problems without arguing and fretting over inconsequential stuff.

· What sound or noise do you love? My sweet angel, Siobhan, in fits of giggles. And believe me, no one gets her laughing it up like Auntie Renee.

· What sound or noise do you hate? Airplanes taking off. Fatal accidents are more likely to occur during the climbing stage of flight and that sound of the engines revving up just fuh-reaks me out!

· What is your favorite curse word? Mother#@$%er! Enough said!

· What profession other than your own would like to attempt? Professional cake decorator. It looks so fun and yummy.

· What profession would you not like to do? Accountant. As you know, my checkbook rarely balances.

· If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates? I know Jews don't believe in heaven, but we're happy to have you here, the cupcakes are calorie-free and your hair looks great.

Moist panties? That was my answer for favorite word. Ha-larious! THANK YOU (I know you love hearing that) for the embellishments on the responses. Definitely puts things into more perspective for me. Time for my responses. Are you sitting down?

I am sitting down. And I’ve got a cold drink of water on hand in case I need to douse the flames of the heat rising inside of my loins from your tawdry responses.

LOL! You need to start writing cheesy romance novels. Perhaps that should be your new career.

I will give it some thought if my own agency doesn't work out or I smother Skinny Skye out of sheer jealousy and end up in jail with lots of time on my blood-stained hands to write. For now, I need your answers, please.

· What is your favorite word? Pleasure.

· What is your least favorite word? Intolerance.

· What turns you on? Experimentation.

· What turns you off? Monotony.

· What sound or noise do you love? Screams of ecstasy.

· What sound or noise do you hate? Morning alarm clock.

· What is your favorite curse word? Cocksucker!

· What profession other than your own would like to attempt? Sex phone operator <just like yours, it also looks so fun and yummy>.

· What profession would you not like to do? Preschool teacher.

· If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates? Yeah, right, like I'm going to Heaven. Ha-Larious! But, I suppose miracles do happen. If that's the case, I expect God to say, "Shake that heavenly ass on in."

Somehow I doubt that God is using the phrase "heavenly ass" but otherwise, the answers are pretty spot on to what I had anticipated.

Oh, no. Am I becoming too predictable? As we've just established, I think monotony is a turn off.

You're not predictable. Your sexiness and sassiness are just anticipated because I know you so well.

Works for me. Okay, I'm going to run. This heavenly ass is going to get some beauty rest, not that I need it.

If you need beauty rest, I need to hibernate. Just kidding! Don't go all "pep talk" on me.

Subject: Re: James Lipton Questionnaire

Good one. And thank you for sparing me the pep talk. I'm definitely too tired for that tonight. Mwah! Mwah!
