It’s the Interview Game and I’ve taken Tracey up on her offer to interview me. Here are my answers to her questions! If you want me to interview any of you, just let me know!
1. Are you still running and/or going to X-Gym? Why?
No to both. I decided to put off X-Gym because I am going on a two month road trip, followed by a family thanksgiving in Hawaii and then possibly a cruise ship job. So I never would have had the chance to really make the X-Gym start to work for me because right after my last trip I’m pretty much gone. But I am planning on forking out the money for it when I come back next year and get settled.
As for the running. Well, I’m a big lazy fatty who can’t stand to run. That’s about it. 🙂
2. Who loves you and how do you know?
I was going to say my cat Parker because every time I go to my parents’ house she still sleeps under the covers with me just like the old days. But Joey says that she doesn’t love me because I abandoned her and he thinks I force her under the covers. I swear I don’t. I just lift the sheet and she jumps right in. (But I don’t really let her out 🙂 Otherwise, Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so.
3. Stick-shift or Automatic?
Stick-shift baby, all the way. Of course, my new car is an automatic and I find myself falling asleep because it’s like an auto-pilot. I think stick-shift makes you part of the driving experience. You are actually operating the car instead of riding in it.
4. Do you collect any knick-knacks or other “collectibles”? How long has this been going on?
On this job, I only collected coffee mugs and travel mugs because I figure no one ever has a matching set of coffee mugs. In America, you HAVE to have tacky mugs to serve coffee and tea with. It’s just the way. The only other thing I collect according to Johnny are the shattered souls of the hearts I’ve broken and he claims it probably started back in Montessori.
5. During your trip to Europe, was there anyplace where you thought “I could live here…” or did you catch yourself thinking “America really is better; I’m so glad I live there”?
Yes, I loved London! Felt like Seattle with history. But I hated Paris because of the way I was treated. I think America is far more helpful to those who don’t speak the language, or maybe that’s just me. I can’t tell you how many languages came into my video store. It all comes down to hand gestures and facial expressions. Although at the video store, I tried to keep the pantomiming to a minimum.
