A few weeks ago, the highly regarded Em (from
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit...) sent me a few interview questions. Maybe you've seen this "interview meme" going around the blogosphere? Anyway, when Em was interviewed, I told her to hit me with a few questions and she obliged. Em titled her interview post,
What Barbara Walters would ask if she were HOT, and it gave me this brilliant idea to post
my interview as if Babs herself was interviewing me as part of her annual Oscar-night special.
Well, it is now Oscar night, and my idea of grandeur has fallen flat. I can't get what is in my head to translate in writing, so I figured I might as well just get this posted!
And so, without further ado...
Name one moment in your life when you were very proud of yourself (non-child related!):I've had such difficulty in answering this question! Because, truthfully, the proudest moments of my life revolve around my two beautiful girls. No other achievements or accolades I've ever received compare to the feelings of pride my children give me.
Which superpower would you choose, a) being invisible; b) reading people's minds; or c) stopping time?
Being invisible would definitely have its advantages. Reading people's minds might be cool at times, but I'm sure there are some thoughts out there which I am better off not knowing.
I think I'd want to have the ability to stop time. Or at least slow time down a bit. Time goes by way too fast, and I would love to be able to make moments last longer...
What would your superhero name be?
Isn't that where you take your first pet's name and add it to the name of the first street you lived on? Oh, wait... that's your porn name.
(Mine would be Mitzi North Summit, in case you were wondering...)
According to
Lula, to get your superhero name, just add the word "The" plus your 2nd favorite color and your favorite drink.
So that would make my doppelganger, The Black Sweet Tea.
Hmmm... let's try Googling "superhero name generator":
| Your Superhero Name is The Ring Virtuoso |
 Your Superpower is Winking
Your Weakness is Men
Your Weapon is Your Air Knife
Your Mode of Transportation is Helicopter
|
(well, I don't know what an "air knife" is, but I do agree with men being my weakness {wink, wink}!)
Name your top three crushes - real, fictional, past or present:
1) My very first crush was on this boy:
YES, that is Joey McIntyre from New Kids on the Block (don't judge me... this was back in 1989 for cryin' out loud! My 12-year-old self didn't know any better!)
2) In high school, there were a few "mini-crushes" I had on guys, but there was just one real, big crush (does this make sense?). It was on a guy that became a really good friend. He had moved here at the end of his junior year (my sophomore one). We had a few classes together and sat by each other at lunch (yes, he's the one I was sitting by
when I had milk dumped in my lap)... he knew I liked him but it took awhile for him to ask me out on a date. While we did have fun, by the end of the date, we both knew friends were all we were going to be. He went away to college, but we'd call each other and I'd see him sometimes when he'd come home for weekends and such. He was even my date for my senior prom! I haven't seen him in about 7 years (he no longer lives here in TN), but we occasionally e-mail back and forth.
3) As for who is currently at the top of my celebrity crush list, that would be
my cabana boy:
(let's have one more pic, just for gratuity's sake)
(sigh...)
So, there you have it. Thanks, Em, for being my Barbara Walters. If anyone out there would like to be interviewed by me, just let me know in your comment!
