Filkderdave's Interview
Mar. 8th, 2007 08:52 pmTo the best of my knowledge this catches me up on all the interviews I've received - if I haven't answered a question set that anyone's sent me, let me know?
1. What was it about autographedcat that made you want to up and move to be with him? (I happen to think you both made an excellent choice, BTW)
Well, my relationship with F had broken down in a thoroughly toxic fashion so I had to move, and I wanted to get the hell out of New Hampshire. My relationship with ACat had been steadily growing, so ... it was a real chance for both of us, but it's worked out very well.
2. As someone from the Northeast, what was the biggest culture shock about moving to the South?
The Bible Belt - everything from most of my coworkers having bible verses posted in their cubes to the inevitable question "Which church do you go to?" It was always which do you go to, not do you go. Also other related attitudes, but that sums it up fairly well.
3. What's the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of me?
Oddly enough, when I read this the very first thing that came to mind was your bright green cast from when you visited a year or two ago! (Sorry! It seems to have made an impression!)
4. Most of us have things that we'd like to try but are prevented by circumstance. Given infinite resources, what would you like to try?
A trip to the moon. Seriously. It's selfish, but there it is. I hate traveling, but I love being places. For that, I'd made the trip. If infinite resources includes a teleporter I would venture further afield - and take everyone along who wanted to come!
5. If you were going to cook dinner for me, what would you make?
How's chili sound, with fresh cornbread? I do a very good chili, if I do say so myself. We also have some jalapeno honey (or maybe this lot is habanero, I forget) which is delicious on cornbread.
