1. What new class should i take?
Take one of the ballroom or salsa dancing classes with Devon. Use the stripper-cise class as bait. Tell him this time he’ll do the ballroom, next time you’ll do the strippercise.
And if everyone else is ultra-hot ultra-talented exotic dancers, at least you’ll enjoy the view.
2. How do you exercise?
Currently, I swim and do light weights at the gym. I also walk a lot. Usually (in a non-pregnant state) I wrestle my 100lb rottweiler mix, and do situps compulsively.
3. How do you exorcize?
I don’t. Evil spirits are my friends.
4. Do you shower with warm or cold water?
Scalding. Unless I’m depressed or overheated or falling asleep. Then freezing. Cold water is great. Even if it does turn one’s tits into rocks and give one’s nipples mystical glass-cutting properties.
5. What is your favorite cereal?
Muesli.
6. Do you “sample” bulk foods at the grocery store?
Nope. L. does, and occasionally hands some to me. I’ll nibble at them and feel horribly guilty. I’m a “good girl’.
7. Badgers. Snuggley or Surly?
Surly. But not nearly as surly as my boy rottweiler mix. He’s totally surly. I love it. It’s precious. He growls at me and I kiss his nose.
8. What are 3 things that you would like to do before you die?
Meet Emma. Complete most of my projects. See the business grow.
9. Have you ever taken a ride in an ambulance?
Nope. Not even when I got hit by a car when I was 13 or 14ish. The closest I’ve ever come was having an ambulance squeal to a halt a foot or two from me, and force me to tolerate idiocy while two EMTs poked at a place where a scab had been scraped off, while I complained that I had hit my hip on the road and it REALLY HURT. Unlike the scab. Which didn’t hurt at all even though it was bleeding like a bitch. They never did look at the hip.
10. Have you ever used a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose?
No, but I’ve used other things instead of fire extinguishers for the fire extinguisher’s intended purpose.

1. What new class should i take?
A: I can so see you and Devon in a tango parlor in Buenos Aires…so, a tango class for sure.
2. How do you exercise?
A: I swim laps every day I’m home and the weather cooperates. When I’m traveling on business, I remember to do a set or two of pushups and situps about every other day.
3. How do you exorcize?
A: I’d like to be able to keep some wolfbane in stock…and watching Signs made me want to keep random glasses of water all over the house. I guess the best I can do is keep a Bible in the bedstand…and the Gideons even help me out when I’m on the road.
4. Do you shower with warm or cold water?
A: Always just slightly above lukewarm….probably 2 degrees over body temperature would be perfect.
5. What is your favorite cereal?
A: I go back and forth between Cracklin Oat Bran and Optimum Power (something with dried blueberries and flax seed). The cereal itself isn’t as important as having some good fresh fruit to put on top.
6. Do you “sample” bulk foods at the grocery store?
A: Nah…I prefer to limit my exposure to SARS, influenza and the common cold as much as possible.
7. Badgers. Snuggley or Surly?
A: Their faces: snuggley. Their giant clawed feet and hands: surly. Probably not on my “Top 50 pets I’d like to own”…
8. What are 3 things that you would like to do before you die?
a. See Corcovado and Christ the Redeemer statue atop Sugarloaf mountain outside Rio.
b. Launch my own business (and have it succeed
c. See Emma successfully market her art and cards in Seattle.
9. Have you ever taken a ride in an ambulance?
A: Yes…when I fell down the steps and broke my ribs…luckily I had someone special at home to call 911 that time when “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!”….
10. Have you ever used a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose?
A: Yeah, I think I had to take a safety training many years ago when I worked at a factory….it involved shooting a fire extinguisher… So I guess I can say no “recent” experience.
