answer a question, ask a question...

online

what is your favorite color?

Blue and Black

What are you going to do today evening??

Since I've been feeling under the weather for some time, hopefully I'm going to curl up next to my girlfriend, and we're going to watch movies. I'll probably fall asleep though... It's the first time I've felt bad on Hawaiian Shirt Friday. (I wear a Hawaiian shirt every Friday, haha... It's just something I do.)

What's your favorite piece of clothing?

jeans

what make/model is your car?

2007 red Chevy Malibu (hence my boyfriend's no sticker law)

who is your favorite author?

Tough one indeed... I love so many that it's tough to choose one. At the moment, I love Hugh Laurie (yes, Dr. House). He wrote a killer book in 1996. It's funny as hell.

What's the most romantic thing anybody's ever done for you?

I'd still like to get to know you all, so I'm gonna start a new question, yeah?

Who are some of your heros/role models/something like that? Who do you look up to?

I dont really look look up to anyone, I am a pretty strong person and I dont find that necessary (in those terms) however, I am deeply inspired by Ani DiFranco (yes, the folk singer) and Amanda Palmer (The Dresden Dolls)---They are also strong, independent, talented women using the platform that they are given to create, inspire and encourage. I also really love John Cameron Mitchell (director/creator of Hedwig and the angry inch and Short Bus)- He is a genius and is so inspiring and fun and he pushes the envelope and makes no apologizes and has done wonders for the GLBT community and is just an awesome awesome person. I could write a list but I will stop now..............


What do you do for a living? Do you like it? What do you WANT to do?

I'm a student right now, making my living as an Accountant's Clerk.

It pays the bills...

I WANT to be an English teacher, and ultimately, and author, but more importantly, I want to be a family man, a husband, and a father.

What's your favorite television show, and why is it your favorite?

nip/tuck..dunno, just started watching and got hooked. well besides julian mcmahon


who was your first concert?

M*A*S*H* is my all time favorite show. I've been watching it for forever. I've always associated Alan Alda with my dad, so now that my dad is gone, it's kind of a bit of a glimpse/memory of him that comforts me.

My question for you. It's a bit out there & thought-provoking, hope you don't mind:

How far would you go to chase what you really want?

To answer Bullet's question:

My first concert was over 13 years ago, when I was 13- I saw Green Day when they were on their Insomniac tour and then Smashing Pumpkins and Garbage not long after.....and its been on ever since then.........


Next person can answer Laura's question:


How far would you go to chase what you really want?

(we got a bit out of order, but I got this )

How far would I go? That's not the right question...

The right question is "Why won't you stop?"

The important things in life... the things that matter most to me are irreplacable. I need them, or else I'm nothing. Absolutely nothing. I would disembowel myself, if necessary.



What's the most relaxing thing to you?

[Oh sorry, I did not even see Bullet's question...my bad BIG TIME!! Thanks for keeping us in order Jessa!!]

The most relaxing thing to me is the ocean - watching the water, the waves, swimming in the ocean, listening to the waves - it just takes me to a magical place.




If you could fulfill a dream for someone you love, who would it be for and what would the dream fulfillment be?

My wife and the fulfillment would be my piece of peace.


Pro Life or Pro Choice, and Why?




-Glass

Of course the femenist will answer this one--- Pro-Choice! I can explain why, but the reasons would most likely be the same that you would hear from any pro-choice side. I will add my own 2 cents on the fact that I am a single mother and I was in a position where I was alone, broke, near homeless and pregnant and luckily my parents were able to help me. There are people who are in situations like that who have NO support system and without this option would be in the gutter somewhere or worse. I also tend to argue that whether or not *I* would have one or not is irrelevant, that I believe it should be legal and women need to have control of their own bodies and no old wrinkled up white man should tell us what to do with it. This is a topic like anything else- drugs, for example are illegal......so, people just do them now illegally. The same thing would happen with abortions. If they were ever to be illegal there would be women in back alleys with coat hangers again. It also isnt so easy as ohhh, just have the baby and give it up for adoption. There is sooooo much more to it than just that. I could go on and on, but bottom line is no matter WHAT it is NO one is going to tell me what to do with my body. I really dont want to start any type of debate or whatever on this. Im very opinionated, but I dont mind agreeing to disagree.

on heavy political issues......should weed be legalized?

Yes. And taxed. Then we'd be generating a little more revenue for the United States.

I wouldn't touch a bit of it... I blush to say that I HAVE smoked a cigarette once, but other than that I'm clean. I just don't like them, you know?

Do you eat breakfast every morning, and if so, what is it? If not, What is your Morning Ritual?

No - I am so bad at eating breakfast every day, especially in the summer, my appetite disappears. My morning ritual consists of jumping in the shower, getting ready, check email, and go. On days when I don't have to go anywhere, I wake up & read a bit, check email, then do a chore or two or four!!


What is a fear of yours that you wish you didn't have?

I wouldn't say it's a fear but I don't do heights very well or needles ( I freak even when I'm getting a shot).

Who is your greatest inspiration?

My girlfriend... She's got so many qualities that I admire. If I was twice the man I could be, I'd still be half of what she is.

What is something from your childhood that you miss?

Freedom.

Give a line from a song that best describes you...

Zeromancer writes the lyrics to life. Seriously, haha. But I've got millions, but I'll narrow it down to about three that really stick out.

Coincidentally, they're by Zeromancer......... This almost needs its own thread. Good work, Jessa!

"It's my life, yeah I know.
It's not a perfect one but...
It's a life I can live with." - Lamp Halo

"But you're there... By my side... But you're there... for me.
When all this is over,
Heaven knows I'm going nowhere.
I was only dreaming.
Censored for a deeper meaning." - Hollywood

"Do you feel love?
It's not like I don't care.
We aren't going anywhere.
Thinking loud and clear,
'Where will I be in a year?'
Two hearts ramming as one.
It's blood music." - Blood Music

What's one thing you'd like to accomplish this year?

yea, actually we had a thread on lyrics on the other message board Im on----start a new one!

So the question still stands.

What's one thing you'd like to accomplish this year?
