Interview Me

Finished Last shared a meme recently where he agreed to be interviewed and posted his answers then asked for others to come forward to subject themselves to the same treatment. Well, I’m just narcissistic enough to know that he wanted me to ask to be interviewed so I did.

So here are FL’s questions with my answers:

1. Who would you consider to be your role model? I would say my biggest role model has been my mother. The reason I answer that way is not because I consider her to be an excellent role model. It’s just that I think she has had the most influence in the direction of my life.

2. What is something you have done that you once swore you would never do? Have an affair. I never ever dreamed I would go behind my husband’s back to have an affair at the time we got married, and for most of the marriage I never did. Then life fell apart and I did something that I considered unthinkable yet inevitable in some way.

3. When was a time that you laughed so hard you though you might get sick? There have been lots of moments like that in my lifetime. Sometimes I get the giggles at the most inopportune, perhaps even inappropriate, times. Often it is something that someone says or does that I might normally chuckle over, but due to some weird crosswaves in the cranium I just lose control. Best example: the first time I saw tumbleweeds. I laughed all the way across the Texas panhandle. And you know what? I’m not really sure what the hell was so funny about those tumbleweeds, but I found them completely hilarious that day.

4. What is something you do when you feel like being indulgent? Chide myself for feeling that way. Then go out and eat a Love It size of some chocolaty mess at Cold Stone Creamery. Then feel guilty for indulging.

5. What is something that people wrongly assume about you? That I’m stuck up and look down on them. In fact, it is the exact opposite. I’m incredibly shy, with low self-esteem (not that anyone would be able to tell that from my blog, ha ha), and if I don’t speak it is for those reasons not that I think others are beneath me. Actually, I think I am beneath them, or at least I assume that they will think so.

Thanks FL. Good questions. Did you learn anything new about me?

Alrighty, anyone else game?

The Rules: Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me.” I respond by asking you five personal questions (I will leave these questions for you in my comments) so I can get to know you better. If I already know you well, expect the questions may be a little more intimate! You WILL update your journal/bloggy thing/whatever with the answers to the questions (please don't leave your answers in my comments unless you don't have a blog). You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
