1. How much black do you have in your wardrobe? More than the average person probably needs. I have an affinity for band Ts and snarky Ts, and black is a predominant color for those. And few of my T-shirts (of any color) remain in their natural state. I recona […]
1. How do you feel about spiders? Not my favorite creature, even though I know they’re beneficial. I used to be borderline arachnophobic, but I’ve gotten better over the years. 2. When in your life was every day a happy day and every night peaceful? It’s been a while. But […]
1. After your alarm, what is the first thing you hear, most mornings upon waking? Either the sound of the TV or the sound of the hub’s CPAP machine. They are simultaneous, but it’s usually the CPAP that registers first. I have a love-hate relationship with that thing. I love […]
1. When did you most recently tag-team some activity or task? Wednesday evening. Dinner is generally a tag-team activity, but since Thursday is leftover night, Wednesday was the last collaborative effort. 2. What has you in a headlock? The world. Do I really need to expand upon that? Probably not. […]
1. Among the supposedly cool, convenient things your phone can do, which have you so far refused to try? I don’t use the health trackers. Is it about privacy concerns? Maybe some. Mostly I think the ship has long since sailed on that. It seems like concern comes too little […]

1. When did you most recently have all your ducks in a row? I used to always have my ducks in a row. These days the life in the US is so insane that I don’t even know what the ducks are any more to even get them in any […]
1. If we renamed all the vitamins so their names were the initials of essential components of mentally healthy living, what would the A in Vitamin A stand for, what should you consume in order to get it, and what’s the recommended daily (or weekly, or whatever) allowance? A is […]
1. What’s your favorite animal-shaped food? Hands down, li hing gummy bears, a local Hawai’i fave. Or dino nuggies with sriacha ketchup! 2. What’s your favorite cylinder- or tube-shaped food? Vietnamese spring rolls come to mind, plus burritos or chimichangas. And from my little hometown area of northern New York, […]
1. When did you most recently follow a recipe? When I last made cơm tấm and đồ chua, although it was loosely at best. 2. When did you most recently give or receive directions to some location? Despite living in Hawai’i, I gave a friend in northern New York directions […]
