1.) What is your favorite place to visit, and why?

locally, definitely the beach or park to kite fly, and just walk around.

anywhere? Bremen, Germany, where I have loads of relatives, and a sweet time every time I go. Good food, good humor, free room & board. 🙂

2.) Do you possess any unusual interests? If so, what are they?

unusual is a tricky word. I love weird stuff, from candy shaped like skeletons from Mexico, to people who hear voices. I’m fascinated by all sorts of bright lights and shiny objects. too many to list. 🙂

3.) Describe the worst place you ever lived.

With friends that were total slobs. (I love them to pieces, but the cleanliness habits were vile.) They owned several animals, and never cleaned house. retch. I think I actually preferred living outdoors than staying in there, even when it rained. I tried to clean the place, but it made me physically ill, and ultimately gave up on staying there. I’m dry-heaving just remembering, now.

4.) What activity/hobby do you wish that you could spend more time pursuing?

philanthropy. I would love to be comfortable enough with my income to spend all day working at a shelter or soup kitchen.

5.) You receive an extra $1000. How would you spend it?

set it aside as emergency money, and look even harder for a new job, probably taking the first one that came along that met my needs.

6.) What trait(s) do you look for in your friends?

loyalty, reliability, kindness, a sense of humor, a sense of irony, and at least smart enough to remember to breathe.

7.) What is your favorite holiday?

Halloween (closely followed by candelmas)

8.) Favorite cartoon character?

yikes. That’s so hard I can’t even say. First one that comes to mind? Monkey from Dial ‘M’ for Monkey… or Mojo Jojo. Or Grape Ape. … definitely a simian theme. Captain simian & the Space Monkeys! argh… I don’t know. Fave Live action ‘toon is Wonder Woman, baby.

9.) What do you have on the walls of your room/apt./house?

Wood Paneling, African masks, Japanese masks, poster of Boston, poster of ‘Classic Doom Patrol’, autographed photo of Julie Newmar, photo of Sean Young as Rachel form Blade Runner, bookshelves, full to the max.

10.) What is your most distracting pet peeve?

mine is the way my brain’s focus works. random thought processes sometimes step on my stream of thought.

in others, any bombardment on my senses… loud voice, foul odor, punching me.
