My friend Devyl from The Devyl Gyrl asked for victims to be interviewed by her. First… the Rules!
You have to link back to the original post and my interviewer’s post and include the following in your post:
Want to be part of it? Follow these instructions:
1. Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.”
2. I will respond by emailing you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
Now…
Interview with a Whaaaaam-Pire:
1. Other than losing someone you love (or seeing someone you love get hurt) or dying before you have completed your life’s missions … what is your biggest fear?
Honestly, my biggest fear in life is being a failure as a person. I’ve made decisions in my life that many can’t, don’t or won’t understand. I’ve had my feet held to the fire for them and I’ve taken my lumps for them. I’ve taken responsibility for them. However, I do worry that some of them make me a “bad” person. A person of questionable morals or principals. That bothers me. The decisions stand and regardless of how it makes MOST others view me I wouldn’t change them. There are a FEW people who’s opinions I value a great deal… probably WAY too much… that I wish felt differently. In the end, it is what it is and I am who I am… “good” or “bad”.
2. Scenario: You happen upon a bag of $50,000. You have an idea of who it belongs to, but you turn it into the police. You let the person know you found $$ and turned it in, but the police return it to you as unclaimed. What do you do?
Oh God… this question is EXCRUCIATING. With the money issues we have and that whole “Failing as a person” issue I have, I have to say you SUCK for this one Devyl. LOL.
Ok… Imma man up. I told the person I suspect it belonged to that it was found and given to the police. They didn’t claim it. The authorities gave it back to me… it’s MINE. I fix our credit. I pay off our car. I put some down on a friggin HOUSE for us to live in. I put some in savings. I donate 10 grand of it to my son’s school district with the specifications that it go toward setting up an after school program for students with emotional problems that gives them a place to go and a way to express themselves in a safe and caring environment without fear of reprisal. (Yes, I really WOULD do that. I’d also work in the program helping the kids as much as I could.)
3. Using existing book titles, choose the 16 chapter names for the novel that describes your life.
You have GOT to be Kidding me. You are way too crafty and creative for my brain woman! Ok… 16 Chapter Titles describing my life in Book Titles:
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter
IF Not Now, When?
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
The Mirror Crack’d from Side to Side
No Highway
No Longer at Ease
Precious Bane
Recalled to Life
The Road Less Traveled
Such, Such Were the Joys
Things Fall Apart
Vile Bodies
A Bend in the Road
A Language of the Heart
Bras and Penus on a Date
Get Back on Your Feet
Just Love
These aren’t in order… but they all fit different parts of my life.
4. If you could rewind 15 years, and change one thing about your life that would *not* affect how anything else not directly related to that one thing … would you do it, and what would you choose to change?
I would have fixed my weight issues long, LONG ago.
5. What color do you think portrays your personality?
Hmmmm… that would have to be “Eggplant” from the Crayola box of colors. It’s muted and a lil somber but still fun with its purpleness.
Now… Who wants me to take a crack at them? NEXT!
