What bill do you hate paying most? 
F!@#ing Buckeye Cable. We don’t even have cable, we have their internet, because it’s the only viable option in this part of Toledo, because the gluttonous, silver-spoon who owns it has friends on the city council who allow him to maintain a monopoly and charge insane rates for sub-par services.
Where was the last place you had a romantic dinner? 
I don’t really “do” romance. The husband cooks every night. Does that count?
What do you really want to be doing right now? 
Beating my neighbor to death with a mallet. More realistically, I guess typing this in the cemetery would be an improvement.
How many colleges did you attend? 
One.
Why did you choose the shirt you have on ? 
It’s black and gray, my two favorite colors; and it has zombies on it, and I love the idea of the world ending in such a way that I’d get to either shoot or eat people. Either one would be fine.
Thoughts on gas prices? 
Indicative of the inevitable downfall of the oil industry, and therefore mildly amusing.
First thought when the alarm goes off in the morning? 
That I hate having appointments.
Last thought you have before falling asleep? 
I do Latin numerology in my head.
Do you miss being a child? 
Never. Grade school was hell.
What errand/chore do you despise the most? 
The litter box patrol.
Up early or sleep? 
Late to bed, late to rise, keeps you rested, sharp, and satisfied. (Or something like that.) I’m nocturnal.
Found love yet? 
I found a man whose dedicated to me, cooks, mows the lawn and pays the bills. I’m not sure I know what “love” is. I appreciate him, and I try to make him happy.
Fav lunch meat? “Fav” isn’t a word, nitwit. I prefer a good brand of baked or smoked turkey. If it’s cheap, it’s boiled, people; and you do not want that. Never by the cheapest meat n the deli.
What do you get at Walmart every time you go? 
Teeny tiny paint brushes and large quantities of acrylic black and white. I have the pet food delivered. Why carry home 30 lb bags of cat food when the mail man can do it?
Beach or lake?
Cemetery. What is this obsession people have with roasting themselves besides bodies of water?
Is marriage outdated? 
The original version, obviously; but society seems to slowly be evolving in a positive direction, at least on that subject.
What famous person would you like to have dinner with? 
Howard Lovecraft, twenty years before his death. I’d give him $5,000 and tell him to eat better so he wouldn’t die of fricking stomach cancer.
Ever crashed your vehicle? 
Does backing into things and running off the road in the winter count?
Ever had to use a fire extinguisher for its intended purpose? 
Yep. Never light a molotav cocktail indoors. Long story.
Strangest place you’ve brushed your teeth? 
The mountains of Beattyville, in a tent.
Somewhere you’ve never been but want to? 
Salem!
At this point in your life would you want to start a new career or relationship? 
I’d like to sell more art to magazines and books. That’s hardly “new” though.
How old are you? 
Forty four.
Do you have a go to person? 
The male.
Are you where you want to be in life? 
As I said before, I’d like to sell more art to publications, and there are road trips I’d like to make. Other than that, yeah. I’m comfortable. I’m going to go to tax auctions at some point, and see if I can get a bigger house, because why not?
Growing up what were your favorite cartoons? 
Voltron, Star Blazers, G.I. Joe, Transformers.
What about you do you think has changed?  “Changed” as compared to what? When I watched Voltron? Pretty much everything except my genes has changed since then.
Looking back at high school, were they the best years of your life?
High school was the WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. Whoever wrote this sounds like a “prep”, in which case I hope they develop colon cancer. Nothing lowers a cheerleader’s self esteem like a colostomy bag.
Are there times you still feel like a kid?
I literally have the mentality of a child, or so sayeth my therapist.
Did you have a pager?
Who the h!@# carries pagers, with $5 cell phones at Wal Mart?
Was there a hangout spot when you were a teen? 
I lived in a town with a population of 8,000. So no. We sat on the curb, on the main street, and yelled at cars.
Were you the type of kid you’d want your children to hang out with? 
One, I opted for cats instead of offspring, because pregnancy, childbirth, then the incredibly mentally, physically, and financially draining process of taking care of a baby never sounded like any fun to me. Two, I’ve been a babysitter, and the parents weren’t very pleased with my abject lack of discipline or control.
Was there a teacher or authority figure that stood out to you? 
Several, who treated me like a miscreant because I had trouble with math. Mr. Russell, in Cumberland City, Tennessee, and Mrs.Enlow, in Mt.Carmel, Illinois, in particular. At this point they’re both either very old or dead, and it would be nice to urinate on their graves.
Do you tell stories that start with when I was your age​?
Rarely, and usually in reference to how technology has changed.
