Question Month - Round 7: Clearing Out the Question Closet
Hey guys - After a break from answering questions here's all that's left in my inbox. Thanks to everyone who sent in questions. It was a lot of fun answering them.
An anonymous readers asks:
What are your favorite smells?
My sense of smell isn't all that great really but I do love the smell of a campfire when I'm in the mountains.
What are the pluses and minuses of living with you?
That's probably a question better asked of folks who have lived with me. I have lots of toys so you'd be all set on gaming systems etc. I can be a bit of a slob though - I hate cleaning the kitchen and bathroom.
What foods do you crave?
I love sushi and pizza. And when I make oatmeal cookies I have to give 'em away or I'll eat 'em all.
What are few things on the To Do list of your life?
I want to travel more (Australia for sure, Japan, China, Austria, Germany, France), I want to own a dog, and I want to fall in love in all the right ways.
Hotty McSexy lostncove asks:
What injustice would you correct if you had the power?
Oppression in the guise of Religion
guinnesscub asks:
If you can spend the day with 1 person, living or dead, who would it be and why? To clarify, if you chose someone dead, they wouldn't come back as a zombie. They would be their regular live self.
Jesus Christ - Because, well - It'd be nice to know one way or the other.
What is the one song that makes you happy whenever you hear it?
That changes a lot but I'd say "A Praise Chorus" by Jimmy Eat World is a good bet.
The man who cannot be defined, abearius asks:
Selfless love is one of the most powerful forces of change that humans have. Will you share one thing you did that you initially thought was a sacrifice of yourself but ultimately brought about a worthwhile change in the world or in your life?
I can't really think of a time when I ever had to make what I would consider to be a sacrifice worth noting.
lmd64 asks:
Where's your favourite holiday destination (either stateside or otherwise)? And where's the strangest place you've ever been to on holidays?
I love New York City. But really, it's more about the people I'm with than the places I go. The strangest? I think that would be a tie between the London Dungeon and the Parque de los Attraciones in Madrid.
anonymous guy asks:
Name a class (or classes) you'd like to take.
When I'm able to commit myself I want to take a stained glass class or glass working. If I had the time I'd love to try and learn piano again too. And yoga - if I could afford it I would totally take a yoga class. I'm also considering Transcendental Meditation.
Describe your first romantic kiss.
It went into motion before I could even wrap my head around it. It was foreign, exciting, and insane.
Given the changes that lay on your horizon, what's your outlook these days? What would you like to see happen in the next couple of weeks to put you in the right frame of mind for April 1?
I feel great and I cannot wait to be free on the first.
More anonymous:
If you get a job in the next couple of weeks, how will you treat yourself for not being able to have the mini-summer-of-Brian? And conversely, if you don't get a job for several months, what are your plans to keep yourself positive?
I have no plans to seek employment in the next 30 days other than networking and giving my resume to the HR team here at the office to distribute within their own networks. My goal is to have a job by July but I will be taking my time in my search. As far as keeping positive goes - um, I'm going to have tons of free time to enjoy the city I love and live in and I'll be bartending more which I really dig. I don't think it'll be tough to stay positive.
