Are there any albums you're currently obsessed with at the moment, aside from the ones I can guess about already (from tweets or conversations we've had)?

Lostprophets - The Betrayed
Peter Schilling - The Different Story
VNV Nation - Of Faith, Power and Glory

How much different would your life be if you hadn't even heard about AFI?

christ I can't even comprehend it. I might not still be here.

Do you have any major regrets in your life, or are you the type of person to not dwell on the past?

there's so much I'd change given half a chance and the insight to do the better thing.

Is it possible to get too attached to a friend you've never met?

Any overattachment is possible I suppose, especially where the internet makes it so much blurrier.

What is the stupidest thing you've done while drunk?

SI.

formspring.me

Ever gotten drunk and woken up wearing someone else's clothes?

No. I've never gotten that drunk around anyone else. The few times I did it was alone.

Have at it.

formspring.me

What makes you cry, no matter what?

There's certain songs that can do that. Depends on the context though.

BAD by U2 has been a majorly emotional song for me since 1984, but it's only actually made me cry a few times.. and I really wasn't expecting to start BAWLING when they played it in 2005.. I was on the damn rail and looking right up at Bono and trying to sing and all I could do was stand there looking like an idiot with these tears I COULD NOT STOP pouring down my face. Wasn't expecting that at all but I couldn't stop either.

Same goddamn thing happened at AFI last year, first time I heard On The Arrow live. Yeah, real hardcore of me, standing there with my damn eyeliner all messed up >_<

What's the fondest memory you have from your childhood? Even if it's very simple, or you think it's silly?

There wasn't a lot there to be fond of.

Have at it.

formspring.me

Ugh, this! Whenever I start focusing on how "packaged" or "artificial" their music and behavior are supposed to be, it kills some of the joy I get from the actual music and from looking at those gorgeous faces. Well thanks for the convo. *hugs* <3

you said it exactly. yw :)

Do you ever get paternal about your younger lj friends?

Yeah, to a point. LJ friends, other site friends. Sometimes I just need to remember they don't necessarily need my old ass watching out for them though.

Have at it.

formspring.me

Why does it drive people nuts? If it's easier than bending down, surely that's a good thing?

Because they can't. I did it way before my back ever fucked up this badly so it's actually been a useful thing to be able to do now that I really can't bend much.

Have at it.

formspring.me

I think both of them are very aware that it's part of the band's allure, the mystery. They'll never let us know for real, will they? XD (Except Bill will eventually marry me so...) >___>

I try to keep from thinking about it too hard, because the fact that the industry and their marketing strategy DOES saturate every aspect of their social perception will make me way too jaded way too soon and I don't want that yet.. I'm not ready.

They won't watch ER with me anymore because of that...

Do conversations with you often devolve into discussions about ducks?

Just that particular one, or the skazillion of them that lived on the UMass campus.

Have at it.

formspring.me

No, it doesn't HAVE to be food, though I have to wonder what else it'd be...

do you really? :p

Have at it.

formspring.me

What would be harder for you, to tell someone you love them or that you do not love them back?

definitely the first. the second makes you feel like a jerk, yeah, but you gotta let them down easy before it gets any worse.

the first is a LOT scarier.

Have at it.

formspring.me

Duck, duck, goose?

Anyone who gooses me better be ready for the backlash....

Have at it.

formspring.me

Hm. I've seen a couple of people say he's/seems asexual before. I don't see that side of him. I wonder if the "gay" things I see him do are just things I was TAUGHT TO SEE AS GAY. Like some of his hand gestures. What about Tom's sexuality?

Tom's a lot harder to read, but then again both guys are Virgos and Virgo males are SO tight about that kind of thing in general they can be a bit of a mystery. I do think his player image is just that, projected for publicity.

Are chickens more or less evil than ducks? And where do geese, camels and coconut crabs come on the scale of animal evil?

oh way way way less evil. Geese are entirely dependent on breed and upbringing. Camels SPIT and they smell bad but they're interesting so they get a pass. Coconut crabs can gtfo my planet plzkthnx.

I think you should add 'passionate about the evils of ducks' to your description.

Or at least just that PARTICULAR duck. Getting pecked in the junk is not real high on my list of favorite life experiences.

Have at it.

formspring.me

Ducks ARE horrible, rapey creatures. They're actually sort of appalling. How do you feel about chickens?

Chickens are awesome. I used to have a bunch of banties and some Araucanas. They're a trip and a half, and I kind of relate to bantie roosters... littlest and loudest XD

Do you talk to your husband about your online life/friends?

As much as he cares to know, yeah. Same with him and his. No secrets.

Have at it.

formspring.me

Are you particularly picky about how your daughter dresses, or do you let her pick everything?

She pretty much has control over what she wears within reason. Motherinlaw sent her home last summer with a pair of knee high pleather boots with 3" stack heels, WTFFFFF... I wasn't too happy about that, so those are "you can wear in the house, but not appropriate for going out in". That kind of thing. And when something isn't appropriate we explain to her why.

Have at it.

formspring.me

O__O I had no idea they had a gay day!! I'm impressed. How many times, if ever, have you seriously sat down and tried to figure out whether Bill is gay or not? :3

He doesn't read to me that way, never did, so I never really had to think about it that much. He might be omni, or asexual, but he doesn't read as gay to me at all.

Have at it.

formspring.me

Ducks are waddling, quacking evil. Yes?

OMG YOU HAVE NO IDEAAAAA My motherinlaw had this... THING.. apparently it was a Muscovy "duck" which is actually a kind of wild goose not actually a duck but OH MY GOD EVIL EVIL EVIL it didn't even quack, it went HISS HISS HISS and tried to peck your balls if you were male.. I once spent fifteen minutes punting the thing down the driveway because it kept flying back up at me and i'd go *BOOT* and he'd come right back again....

Have at it.

formspring.me

Do you have a strong opinion on the Disney empire as a whole? What it stands for?

I'm quite torn on Disney. On the one, I hate what they do with stories and I hate the "corporate media empire" they push. On the other, they've been very progressive on gay issues, even having a "gay day" at the themeparks despite protest from bigots. So I can't... quite... hate.

Is there a safe or easy way to bathe a cat? (preferably I'd like both!)

1) Clip their claws, just the tips, careful of the quick.

2) Pillowcase you don't care about.

3) Fill the sink with the warm water and shampoo/flea dip

4) Put cat in pillowcase with head exposed, gather the opening around their neck. Tie just tight enough so they can't easily get out of it.

5) Pillowcase with cat into sink. Work the soapy water through the pillowcase into their fur. If it's flea treatment, keep them in the soapy water for the full ten minutes or whatever. Make sure to get some of the soapy water on their head and under their neck.

6) Drain sink. Keep cat in pillowcase.

7) Rinse cat through the pillowcase, preferably with one of those sink sprayer attachments.

8) Have towel ready, let cat out of pillowcase and dry off with towel. Prepare for three hours of hateful stares and paw-shaking.


This is how we had to do it with my 25-lb Maine Coon. My other guys I just put in the sink and wash normally if they need it. I let em stand up from inside the sink against my shoulder, I get soaked but it's easier on them that way.

Seriously, I haven't. It's pretty hard to get me to go to movies in general, my ADD makes it uncomfortable if it's not a subject or actor I'm really into.

What's the most disgusting thing you ever came across while working as an EMT?

For a patient who was still alive? The hoarder who'd been on the floor for four days in a puddle of her own mess.

Dirty plates and pots and pans piled to the ceiling full of rotting food, so much garbage piled in the house we had to break in through a window and make a trail to get her out again.

I made the department replace my boots after that one, and drove home barefoot.

What do you think of parents that mindlessly show their kids shows like Dora the Explorer or Spongebob Squarepants or any other dumb kids' show that's just on TV?

We tried to find a balance in that; we don't have cable TV so kiddo's TV exposure was limited to PBS and whatever we got on vhs or dvd. You can't completely insulate a kid from pop culture, socially it'll slaughter them, but at the same time you stay involved, monitor, talk about what they're seeing and see where it's taking their mind... needless to say I'm not a fan of the TV-as-babysitter mindset at all, no.

There you've hit on one of the major stresses in my life right now.
We just keep talking, basically. Anything that comes up.. we'll bring it up, talk to her about it, see what she's coming away with in her head, and address accordingly.
We don't have cable TV so she's at least not exposed to too much that way, but it is pervasive..
Communication, monitoring, more communication. We can't shield her from the reality of the world and how twisted it is but we can make her aware of it with a different point of view.

it was there almost immediately. what took the nearly three years in between was both of us admitting it, getting out of the miserable relationships we were trapped in, getting over ourselves enough to admit it, getting over the perceived risk of losing a good friendship if either of us admitted there was more, and getting the cojones up to actually make a move. took from 1991 to 1994.

How many pets do you have? What kind are they? What breeds and how old? How do you think your life would be different without animals?

ahh, the Horde.

Dogs:
== 13(?) year old black lab/german shepherd mix
== 3 y/o boxer/golden lab/heinz 57 mix
== 13 y/o miniature wirehaired dachshund (long story)

Cats:
== 4 domestic shorthairs, 1 domestic longhair, ages range from 14 to 5.

Rabbit:
== Mini-lop mix, approximately 4 y/o

I like animals better than most people and generally they like me better than most people do as well, so that all works out.

I had gotten an offer to continue professionally, which would have put me in a condo, all paid for, where I would have seen clients. I sometimes wonder how my life would've gone if I'd taken the offer.

Have at it.

So, sex then. On top, on the bottom, or whatever you feel like there and then?

I'm a switch, whatever's happening is what happens.

I've worked as a dom, long ago and far away, but that didn't involve sex.

Granted a fair bit of all of this is limited right now by the whole broken spine/raging sciatic pain thing.

Did you have a favourite teacher in school?

Not til highschool... George Mitchell, who taught greenhouse management, and Myron Tupa, who taught graphic art. Those two probably hauled me through highschool without dropping out all on their own, along with the next one I'll tell you of.

There was one English teacher who -ever- got me and who I didn't fight like a mongoose with, and eventually they just let me keep re-taking her class for the required credits. She got married and I don't know her name anymore. -_-

She was the absolute epitome of Fierce Black Woman -- she was always exquisitely groomed and dressed, despite the non-glamorous job of "public high school english teacher"... she took absolutely no shit from ANYBODY, and damned good at her job. Quite literally, in 12 years of English classes, she was the ONLY one who ever figured out how to deal with me. And I had a 720 English on the SAT, won a bunch of (meaningless) writing awards throughout school, etc etc.. it wasn't for my lack of ability.

It seems like half the questions you've been asked are about sex. Does that bother you at all?

No, not at all. Damn near anything's fair game and if something isn't, I'll say as much.

How did you and your husband meet?

Medieval fantasy LARP called NERO (New England Roleplaying Organization). Yeah one of those games where you chase each other through the woods all weekend and beat the hell out of one another with plumbing supplies aka boffer weapons.

It still exists, but under different ownership, and it was a lot cooler back then than the present organization is, lemme tell you.

Have at it.
