scottopic's interview of me for The Shower Meme


1.) What's the sickest you've ever been?

I've been pretty lucky with this. The only thing I can think of is a bout with food poisoning that made me think I was going to die and made me think that was not such a bad thing. I caught the flu when I was pregnant with Rhiannon. That was unfun. But, like I said... all things considered, I've been quite fortunate not to have ever been seriously ill.

2.) What do you envision your kids being when they grow up?
I mean, besides your kids.

So far I have pretty much decided that Isadora is the reincarnation of Josephine Baker. We cannot keep clothing on that child, she is constantly changing into new 'costumes' all day long, she dances all the time, and when I bought a biography about Josephine, Isadora insisted that was a picture of her on the cover. Honestly, she is such a people pleaser that I can easily see her going into something performance related, be that dancing or acting.
Rhiannon seems like more of a scholarly type. I can picture her as a paleontologist or archaeologist. Something -isty.

3.) Do you have a theme song? What is it and why?

If I did, it would constantly be changing. I get songs that I become a little obsessed with for a few days or so. Right now I guess that's Dialate by Ani D. Cheery, eh? I have just been feeling a little on the grumpy side the past couple of days. That's the reason for that one.

4.) God (or whoever) offers to change one thing about the universe, "and not that old 'world peace' thing" -- what do you change?

Hrm, that's a tricky one. Perhaps I'd ask for some way that everyone can have easy, free access to knowledge. Not a mandatory education, but just something that is there for those who are willing to take it. Probably we aren't really all that far off from that and maybe it's more of a matter of people being able to take advantage of what is out there. Maybe I'd just ask for the standard of living in certain places to rise enough to allow people to go learn instead of having to work all the time. Jeeze, I sound like a damn beauty pageant contestant. -twiddles her hair and looks vacant-
