And then let’s pretend that you are seated behind a desk looking all fetching in your power suit and have a stack of blue cards that some intern or staffer prepared for you. And let’s then come back from commercial and camera one rolls forward and zooms into your airbrushed and lovely face (airbrushed because we are high def, not because you are ugly). And then you get a twinkle in your eye and pick up those blue cards and rip them up and toss them behind you. A sound guy plays a prerecorded audio file of glass breaking.
The studio audience chuckles with delight.
I get a small dew drop of perspiration on my upper lip and quickly flick it away. You lean in close and say, “Now I am just going to ask you the good stuff!”
So if this was us what would you ask?
Oh yes! It is time for the summertime question and answer posts!
Bring it. Ask me a question and let’s see if I dare to answer.
(& please do remember that my Mother reads this blog. ahem.)

Yeah! I love Q&A sessions. Especially when they’re all vivid like you just made that one.
1) What would WW’s name have been if he was a she? Were you considering any other boy names?
2) How many states have you visited? Are there any you haven’t been to but wish to see?
3) Are you amazed with the speed and voracity that such a little man has captured your heart? That one is rhetorical, but I couldn’t think of a third question, and I couldn’t leave it with just 2.
And I know the answer to #3 is holy-shit-yes. 
Is there anything you’ve always dreamed of doing (traveling, becoming a rocket scientist, whatever)?
What type of camera do you shoot with?
and
What editing program do you use?
Not very daring – I know.. but.. 2 questions that I would like to know !
Where do you get your news?
What do you buy most often at the grocery store?
What book character would you totally love to be for a week?
Favorite summer recipe?
Every thought about opening a shop on etsy or ebay and selling photos?
If this is too impertinent don’t answer – How do you think you would be in letting a future significant other be a partner in W’s parenting?
Would you consider having another baby in a few years? or is W it?
What are your favorite things to eat?
How is the cloth diapering going?
Would you ever share your real name with us?
is there something you do for W on a daily (regular) basis that you always imagined yourself doing for/with a child of your own? (reading a certain book, singing a special lullaby)
and now that you have your own baby is it a surreal thing for you?
[your singing "bushel & a peck" to GM inspired this question]
[hoping this isnt a totally stupid and incomprehensible question]
oh yeah. i might have to steal this blog Q&A idea…
what is your favorite all-time movie? (comedy / drama).
who will play you in your biopic?
As a fellow actress at heart, I’d like to know what role or type of role you’d like to play if you could? I’ve always wanted to play someone psycho or someone with extreme psychological problems. Like Sybil.
First, I loves me some Anne of Green Gables!!!!
Second, my question is what is your biggest pet peeve and why?
I’m 25 and I have always wanted kids. I want 5 someday. I might settle for 4. Anyway I just have not found a guy to be the one let alone the ‘right now’ guy. The past year I have thought about having kids on my own. Why wait? I mean if a guy does come along then he would have to accept my child under other circumstances so it shouldnt be a big deal. Anyway in my quest to find others on this path I found you and other blogs I lurk and love. Its really helped solidify my decision. I just want to finish school and get financial security again ( i recently lost my job and man i know how your mom feels. the job market here is horrible and 60+ applications later i’m still unemployed. its hard.) My point to all this background info is at
what age did you decide this was the path for you?
i worry i’m too young to think about this but at the same time i worry if i keep waiting there will be no eggs left! and
how did your family take to the news when you first decided?
i sometimes wonder if i should lie and keep it to myself. but that would make it difficult to have more children. at some point i would have to learn to stop having one night stands with guys who are deadbeats. i can just hear my mom saying 5 times really?? ok sorry this was so long!
