11 Things You Wish You Didn’t Know About Me:

1. As a child, I watched Pinky and the Brain a lot. I studied all their mistakes, I will not make the same mistakes!
2. I use commas a lot, that’s, just the way I speak, so, that’s how I write.
3. I already have a plan of action for when I take over the world, and when that day comes, the Gods themselves couldn’t save you!
4. I love cats. Not because they’re cute and cuddly. But because they don’t seem to love you as much  as you love them.
5. I’m the one who made that weird sound you heard in bed last night. Good luck sleeping tonight!
6. I’m afraid of spiders, but then again, who isn’t?
7. I’ve changed career paths more than I’d like to admit. Everything from astronaut to engineer to gourmet chef.
8. I once won a Nobel peace prize but they took it back when I made a joke about invading Canada.
9. If there were Procrastination Awards, I’d win a gold medal. Few people can really appreciate what an art procrastination is.
10. I sleep during the day, and stay up all night.
11. When I was 5 years old, I wanted to be an astronaut. But then I read this book:

You Can’t Be An Astronaut! It’s Just Not Realistic!

 

11 Questions Asked by Jodi Lea From Jodi Lea’s Place:

Q. As a kid (or older) when you pretended to be someone else, who were you and why did you want to be them?

A. Tarzan. I loved that feeling of freedom Tarzan had when he was swinging through the trees.

Q. Have you had your “15-minutes of fame” yet? How did it happen? (If it hasn’t happened, how would you like it to happen?)

A. No. I would like to prevent the assassination of the president.

Q.  If you could change one thing about your personality – what would it be and why?

A. I’m not sure. People don’t really come out and tell you that they don’t like something about you, so it’s really hard to know what people don’t like about you.

Q. What was the last novel you read? Would you recommend it?

A.  A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin. It’s actually a series of novels and I would definitely recommend it to everyone.

Q. Who was/is your favorite teacher, and why?

A. My Biology teacher. She saw potential in me.

Q. Besides writing, tell us about one of your other talents.

A. I can go for days without eating, and not even get hungry. That might not be a talent now, but try getting stuck in the middle of the desert with me and we’ll see who’s talented.

Q. Where were you when President Kennedy was shot?

A. President Kennedy was shot in 1963! How old do you think I am?

A. Tom Hardy. I need to look good in the movie.

Q. What was your favorite TV show when you were in grade school?  What about now?

A.  Captain Planet and The Planeteers… Wait No! It was Biker Mice From Mars. Now, it’s A Game Of Thrones. But the best TV Series I have ever watched is and ALWAYS will be Firefly.

1. People who talk during a movie. Just shut the F**k up!
2. Waiting in long lines.
