1) Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me!"
2) I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3) You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.
4) You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5) When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And thus the endless cycle of the meme goes on and on and on...
So...here are the questions posed by
smacky30 and my attempt at answering them.
1. If you worked outside the home what would be your ideal job? (Remember I said OUTSIDE the home)
So, you are basically asking me what I want to be when I grow up. **shrugs** No flipping clue. I have done everything from construction to technical writing to short order cook and have been happy doing all of them. I suppose, however, believe it or not considering that you know just how poor my social skills truly are, I would like to teach on the college level.
2. If you were stranded on desert island and could only take one book with you what would it be?

3. What attracted you to Chip?
Why do I detect an evil smile on your face?
Okay...Chip has amazingly beautiful blue eyes and long, artistic fingers...great hands. That is the physical, or rather the first two things I noticed about him other than his hair, which is very thick and curly. The non-physical is that he is a thoroughly decent, kind person. Those are the things that attracted me to him. I won't bore you with how/why I fell in love with him.
4. If you could go back to 18 and live your life again what would you change?
Does it have to be something in my own life or just something that had a huge impact on my life? Because, honestly and truly, the one thing I would change just to see how everything else that happened would fall into place if I removed this one variable, is that I would take the booze away from my Dad. His alcoholism had a profound impact on all of our lives - we had very little choice and absolutely no say so. I think that is what I would change, just to see how it all might play out.
5. What's your favorite meal?
This is going to sound kind of strange, but now that I am a veggie, I really don't have a favorite meal. Maybe beans, cornbread and red noodles, but only if my Mom makes them. Otherwise, I guess it would be a fried egg sandwich or a bowl of Cap'n Crunch.
