I've been interviewed!

Melinda interviewed me. I was really expecting a wallop from her, but she deigned to avoid the more embarrassing questions she could have asked me. I'll interview you, too, just say something in my comments.

1.) What do you do when Ace brings home an "inappropriate" date?

Right now, I just call their parents and tell them to come pick their hussy butts up. I'll not be having my baby boy around those thong diaper-wearing tramps. When he gets older, I will really, really, really work hard to sit back and tell myself that I've raised him well and that he will make the right decisions. Lord knows I had my share of "inappropriate" dates and a boyfriend or two, and I know that if my parents had told me to stop seeing them it wouldn't have worked anyway. I just hope that I raise Ace well enough to make the right choices. If I don't, he'll have to live with the consequences.

In short, I really don't want to pull a Barbara.

2.) If you had to live in any movie, what would it be?

The Passion of the Christ. I know it sounds weird, but to have been there, to have met the man face-to-face, even at his darkest hour, to have known the man in person. Wow. Otherwise, I'd probably want to be in some super romantic movie with me and Drew as the main characters, where we throw caution to the wind and let romance take over. (I think I miss the guy.)

3.) Are you ever embarassed of the outright sci-fi nerdiness of your husband and his friends? I mean, come on, we definitely push the dork envelope every once in a while.

Early on, yes, constantly. When I first met y'all, I'd've probably abandoned you for crazy frat boys and sorority girls if I'd had the chance. I was fresh outta high school still had a very, very strong follower mentality and wanted desperately to be in the "in" crowd. I hate that I thought that way now, especially since y'all are the best friends I've ever had, and you were then too - more true and real than anyone I'd ever met. That's the great thing about nerds - what you see is what you get. Y'all helped me grow. Now, though, not so much. I love y'all and know you are what you are, and I love you for it. Even when you dress like this. I suppose (oh dear heavens) I've been assimilated.

4.) Of all the sci-fi you've been forced to watch, which futuristic technology do you REALLY want?

I know it may come as a surprise, but I used to watch Star Trek: The Next Generation. My stepmom's a big ol' Trekkie and she watched it religiously, so I watched it with her. I think more because I thought Wil Wheaton was a foxy little hottie than anything else. As near as I can remember, Dr. Crusher used to have this little wand that she'd wave over anyone that was sick, and it'd diagnose and cure that person of his/her condition sure as shootin'. Unless they were shot. Broken legs, no problem. I'd like to think cancer wouldn't be a big deal either. Also, I wouldn't mind cloning Nathan Fillion. Just so he could clean my house, I SWEAR.

5.) If you were a chair, what kind of chair would you be? hehe

heehee... A big, fluffy one.
