"Why haven't you and Mark ever moved in together?" "We talked about it...Mark wanted me to live with him in the village, and I wanted him to come to the upper west side." "Then he said he needed to be near his gallery, and I wanted to be near Lincoln Center...and he said I was selfish, and I said he owned an unsavory number of khaki shorts..." "...And he said because I was drop-dead gorgeous I thought I could get anything I wanted...and I said he was acting like a prima donna, and he threw the bouttonniere I gave him at my chest, and I narrowed my eyes and he began to sob..." "That's when you decided not to live together?" "Um...Actually we put on the original cast of 'Camelot', and spent the evening lip-synching Guenevere...Honestly, his Julie Andrews is dead-on."
