Questions from

minakochan:

1. You often refer to yourself as a priest. What does this mean, and
when did you first realize you were one?

2. What's your favorite saying?

3. If you could erradicate one book from the history of the universe,
which would it be?

4. Choose: Feathers or leather?

5. When was your first same sex encounter?

1. You often refer to yourself as a priest. What does this mean, and when did you first realize you were one?: Usually, I refer to myself as a minister, but priest is close enough. When I was 12 or 13 or so, I took oath to the universe to use my skills wisely and in service of balance and life. I found myself performing ministerial duties, and decided to become ordained by the Universal Life Church to affirm my calling. I take confessions, listen to people, and ask them the questions that make them realize what they have been thinking all along, in a form so they can deal with it if they need to.
2. What's your favorite saying?: That's a tough one. One of the ones that's been making the rounds inside templeravenmoon has been "Bend over: I'll show you". Say this in response to any question for an effect that is often obscene. Professionally, "So what do you mean by that?" has got to be one of the top ones.
3. If you could eradicate one book from the history of the universe, which would it be?: Windows on a Lost World. It is a Star Trek: Original Series book, and it sucks beyond belief. I know two people who were introduced to the Star Trek books through that piece of crap, and both of them were very much turned off by it. One of them went on to read other books, and found that the others did not suck. The second one still has not read other Star Trek books, because that one sucked so very horribly much. It is a bad book, with no redeeming literary value, and should forever be consigned to the realms of Badfic, only it cannot because it has been published!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4. Choose: Feathers or leather?: Oh, leather, without a doubt. Leather jacket, leather pants, leather... accessories... *giggle* I think that the only people who generally look good in feathers are birds. Xiao Ji had the most lovely plumage... Ethically speaking, of course, you can get feathers w/o killing the animal, but for style and happiness, I'd go with leather.
5. When was your first same sex encounter?: Well. There are a number of things that might qualify...
The first time I realized I liked another girl was when I was nearly 15, back on May 1 of 1995, though retrospectively, I did have a crush on my friend Galadriel, and on my sister's violin teacher, who was sooo gorgeous.
The first girl I dated and was attracted to with any immediacy was my fiancée the Lady E.; we hugged but never kissed.
The first girl I kissed was ... this psycho chick in high school. We're now not liking each other very much.
The first girl I had sex with was "Erica" from That Idiot Shawn's tale of lust and Really Bad Timing. She and I don't talk anymore either.

Anyone wishing an interview, comment, and I can see if I can think up some questions... anyone who wants to interview me (anything you've been dying to know, too shy to ask) speak up!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

interview me, please ? :)

1. How did you and computers come together?

2. Why polyamory?

3. What one of your interests would you pimp out to the majority of your friends list not known to be interested in it already?

4. We're only a three-adult household and we *still* never have time together. How do you manage?

5. What is one hair-raising experience you hope to never repeat?

I don't know if you'd have any for me, but I'll take questions if you can come up with any.

Let's see.

1. What is one hair-raising experience you hope never to repeat?

2. What is one hair-raising experience that you wouldn't mind repeating?

3. I notice you have the unique interest "inappropriate analogies". Do feel free to give an example of one, and why it is so inappropriate, and why the concept is so interesting.

4. What must any comic avoid in order for you to keep reading it? (In other words, what would a comic have to do in order to make you quit reading it and never read it again?)

5. Cats or dogs? And why?

I'll interview you if you interview me. :)

Mkay.

1. What was your introduction to the world of magic?

2. How did you become involved in fandom?

3. How did you meet your husband?

4. Please tell us the story of how you fell in love with your husband?

5. Why is monogamy not a practical choice for you?

Much thanks for the answers. ^_^

Welcome. :)

I write so much about stuff that I kind of lose sight of the fact that most people don't know my backstory...

Here's a rather detailed one for you, but I'm sure you'll have no trouble answering:

You seem to have grown up in a rather non-traditional household, having been raised in a very rural area, always surrounded (as far as I know) by your current traditions, rather then coming into magic later in life. How do you think you benefited from the experience, and do you think that there is anything significant that you missed out on?

I've still not answered the last person that interviewed me... but if you interview me, I'll answer both sets of questions tomorrow. :o)

Hm.

1. How'd you come by your current spiritual path?

2. How'd you meet E.?

3. How'd you and E. fall in love?

4. Where would you like to permanently live?

5. What is your number-one pet peeve that no one seems to ever "get"?

interview me too, please. :)

1. What is the most significant thing you've done with your Papacy?

2. Do you think I'm cute?

3. Which obscene legumes are you scared of, how are they obscene, and why are they so frightening?

4. Everyone and their little brother's boyfriend seem to be traumatized by clowns. Either that, or they are a clown. How 'bout you?

5. What foreign languages can or can't you speak, and why?

1. Do you think *I'm* cute? *laugh* I have /zero/ radar on these things...*smile*

2. When and under what circumstances did you first run into

iroshi?

*mind all blanky*

Can't think of anything else at the moment, if I do, I'll add to this.

1. Yep.

I would have been contemplating pounceage had you not been so Very Taken.

2. Um, I think we ran into each other to know each other on LJ, about a year and a half ago, but back when I was just getting to know the internet, I think in 1996 or 1997, we were both on the dendarii.com list at the same time. I was shadow_rose@hotmail.com, aka Joani_Laurel, and just a little teeny teen, and I have no idea what she went by, but we were both on there. I know I was on there in 1998. I've been on there off and on since I first wrote that paper comparing Heinlein to Bujold back in the day.

I'd love for you to interview me...

1. I met you through the Bujold list. How'd you wind up there?

2. What is your favorite literary/musical/artistic rendering of Raven?

3. You have "raincoats for lemurs" as a non-duplicated LJ interest. Please, elaborate.

4. Which book by Bujold is your favorite and why?

5. Unless I'm gravely mistaken, you're currently experiencing the frustration that is a quasi-sexual relationship while maintaining virginity. Any insights you've gained from this?
