My 11 Questions From ‘Sue, With Answers-

1.   What is your absolute, without-a-doubt favorite movie of all-time (and what is it about this movie that makes it your favorite?) Yeah, I know.  That was sneaky.   😉

Spartacus. Because in real life, I’m a gladiator.

2.   How long have you been blogging?

I’ve been blogging since February, 2015.

3.   What kind of impact has blogging had on your life?

4.   So far, what has been your greatest triumph in life?

I performed at the Circus Maximas

5.   What is your dream job (and why)?  I know, I know.  I did it again.  😉

Gladiator

6.   Favorite band?  (I know I’d have trouble with this one so I’ll allow you 3, haha.)

Five Finger Death Punch (Bullet for My Valentine and Black Veil Brides)

7.   How would you describe your personality?

During the day I’m introverted and a dork. At night I’m a gladiator.

8.   What is your favorite thing (personality trait, talent, physical feature, etc.) about yourself?  Yep, you guessed it – and why?

I don’t know what my favorite thing about me is, but I’ll tell you what it AIN’T – my nose…because I used to think it was large and hook-like. 

9.   How do you feel about medication (mental illness-wise)?

If it makes me feel better, I’m going to most likely take it. I would rather take a medication that lifts the grey I live with, than not take it and chance Specter leaving his rusty cage.

10.  What’s your favorite personality trait in others (what draws you to certain people?)

I like people that drive on the right-hand side (U.S.-specific) of the road when they’re going under the speed limit.
