Conversing with Myself

01

Favorite number?

12 – hence why I answered a dozen questions.

02

What do you think about when you’re alone in the car?

The fact that most of the cars around me are owned by the bank.

03

What do you think of garden gnomes?

If done sparingly, quite charming.

04

If you were a tree, what species would you be?

Easy – Pseudotsuga menziesii. I’m an obvious PNW native.

05

If you could eliminate one state, which one would it be?

Again, easy – Florida. Though climate change will likely take care of that itself.

06

What fictional character do you identify with the most?

Mrs. Hess (Home Alone 3) – I’ll warm up to you eventually.

07

What’s one item that is always packed for a vacation?

My Kindle – always aspirational, rarely pulled out.

08

What would you want your last meal to be?

Quiznos turkey ranch and swiss (8 inch) on rosemary parmesean bread. No substitutions.

09

If you were a bicycle, which part would you be?

Ideally? The brifters. Realistically? The hard-to-adjust piece that makes that hard-to-track-down noise.

10

Do you play any video games?

I went in way too deep on Hogwarts Legacy. I beat the game four times (had to play every house).

11

Low-hanging fruit – celebrity crush?

Henry Cavill 👀 – knew it during my first screening of “The Count of Monte Cristo.”

12

What is your personal slogan?

“Once you’ve spent it, it’s gone.” – adapted from my grandma, a Depression-era legend.
