    I tend to stick with the things I'm familiar with, but every once and a while, I like to get adventurous. :p

    What is the most exotic/strange food item that you have ever tried?

    The best sandwich I ever had was roast moose tongue. It's nice and lean with a delicious flavor.

    Is there something you really loved once but you doubt you'll ever have it or experience it ever again?

    I had glass of a 70’s vintage Tattinger’s champagne, a friend’s dad paid. It was heaven in a glass, and I certainly wouldn’t buy a bottle of it.

    What’s your favorite road trip destination?

    Port Fairy Victoria, Australia. 6 hour drive and I know the place like the back of my hand, and love it. Its my escape, my haven.


    Are there days when you know you have lots to do but the idea of staying it bed is very appealing to you?

    That sounds like me on most days. I'm definitely not a morning person. :p


    Are you typically an early riser or a night owl?

    Night owl all the way, I detest anything before 10. I do it, but I hate it.


    Do you like wearing hats?

    I love wearing hats and I have several.


    Do you enjoy shoe shopping?

    I don’t drink soda, so no to both. :p


    Do you enjoy the sound of rain?

    Its currently pouring outside and I love it, and the smell.


    What is your favourite season of the year?

    Summer. The lake is almost warm enough to swim in now. I was in last week for less than 5 minutes, it's still too cold for any more than that.

    What is your favorite way to exercise?

    Walking or tap dancing are my top picks.

    Tell us a hobby that no one would expect you to have?

    Meteorology. I love the weather and learning everything I can about it. I follow predictor models and the radar on a regular basis, as well as live feeds from storm chasers when there's a severe weather outbreak. Part of me regrets that I didn't pursue it in college.


    If you could have one job what would it be?

    Since I was not born into peerage, which takes Queen off the table, I’d be a private investigator. It’s very much an interest of mine. :p

    What’s an unusual interest you have?

    Reading bad fanfics, mostly for comedic value. (Well, that and listening to them, seeing as there's a guy on YouTube who specializes in narrating awful fics that'll make you puke through your eyes. [face_skull])

    If you were reborn into the Star Wars universe, what species would you be?

    I would be human or Chiss, and Sith.

    Do your friends get your love for SW, or do they just ignore it?

    Most of 'em don't get it, though I wouldn't go so far as to say they ignore it, per se. (I had one classmate a ways back who even commented on how crystals were needed to build lightsabers, and the fact he remembered that really surprised me.)

    Besides Star Wars, are there other franchises you're a fan of?

    Lord of the Rings and Trek are the big ones, Marvel is good for light fun, Firefly was going places until it was cancelled.

    Which cancellation was the worst decision?

    Downton Abbey, it wasn’t cancelled, but I hated that it ended. :p


    What is a valuable lesson you learned recently?

    Patience is a virtue? For over a year and a half I've had a broken 4K 43in TV listed on eBay for "Parts Only" and local pickup. I've had nips every so often, but they all turned out to be duds who were obviously too lazy to read the headline and description that the TV (that I was selling for $50) was BROKEN. But I just this past week I got one person who won and made the payment, so I'm expecting to finally be able to get rid of the TV sometime soon.

    What was the largest thing you've ever sold on eBay?

    I’m not sure if you mean largest sale or actual size of item. For largest sale, I had 24 silver goblets that I inherited. They weren’t my taste, and were a huge pain in the backside to keep polished. One buy took all of them and they sold for way over what I would have guessed. The next biggest sale was a Cartier ring that I never really liked, it sold for more than it retailed for.

    Do you have any travel plans coming up?

    Next year I plan a big trip to Europe and the UK, been saving for years for it! Talked to my travel companion today about starting the wheels in motion!
    So if you are over there, and wanna say hi, PM me and will see what I can do!


    Have you ever attended a Pagan Winter Solstice Ball? (I am tonight in costume, should be a hoot!)

    I've once attended an Agnostic Summer Equinox Ball (j/k). Tbh I've never actually heard of that type of Ball before. Ballroom dances aren't really my thing; at least for now.

    How well of a dancer do you consider yourself to be?

    Yes, if singing badly counts.

    What do you love to do even though you're not very good at it?
