1. Favorite memory of Lovely Wife Sara doing something when she didn't know she was being observed?
Man, that’s a hard one to nail down, but I might need to say it’s while Sara’s doing her art. I can kinda hide and watch her paint and it’s amazing. She sees the whole piece but it changes as she goes. The intense yet loving way she looks at the work is great.
At some point I can make a post with some of her art, but it’ll take me a bit to find all the files on my laptop. Here’s a self-portrait she did in high school or first year of college.
2. What was your earliest memory of getting your heart broken?
It’s hard to say whether you want to count young love or less-young love. When my first huge crush moved away or when one of my girlfriends cheated on me?
The former was between third and fourth grade, about when I realized how kinda not-right-in-the-head I was. We used to make up fictional worlds where we'd play and we joked about marrying each other in ten years.
The latter? I’ll spare details, for her sake as much as mine, but I will say that it hurt so very much. Cheated with a friend, no less, but I hate shunning people so we actually remained friends after some necessary “Stay the fuck away” time. Yeah, I know, I'm weird.
3. What movie really scared the crap out of you as a kid?
The Thing by John Carpenter. My mother was always a bit ahead of the times and had a VCR when that movie came out on VHS. We watched it, her and my brothers Matthew and Jason and I.
When the dog turned inside-out I had to leave the room. Still haven’t rewatched it.
One of the blob movies, I think, scared the hell out of me as an even younger child.
4. What's the worst decision you've ever had to make?
“But if you had to choose, which would you choose to live with, your mother or your father?” - a judge in his chambers to a very young benjamin
I’m not saying that what I responded was right or wrong or anything, that was just one of the worst decisions I’ve ever had to make. What kind of a dick makes that into an ultimatum?
5. Something you did as a kid that gave you a satisfied sense of accomplishment?
The ABC’s of Cats. If Ma still has a copy I’ll see about getting it scanned in. It was my first book, fully illustrated, and had things like “I is for Icky Stuff” and then a drawing of a litter box with poop in it.

Right, off to work in the severe thunderstorm...
