A–Attached or single: Very much attached. In fact, at this very moment, I’m madly, passionately, and wildly in love with my wife.
B–Best Friend: Look at the answer to A and you have the answer to B.
C–Cake or Pie: If I HAVE to choose, I’ll pick pie, but I really like both. I made a homemade apple pie a couple of weeks ago that turned out WONDERFULLY.
D–Day of Choice: I love Saturday date nights with my love, and I love Sundays that I don’t have tons of meetings.
E–Essential Item: Usually a computer. It’s a source of both income and recreation for me.
F–Favorite Color: Blue
G–Gummi Bears or Worms: I enjoy worms more than bears of the gummi variety.
H–Hometown: I was born and raised in Billings, MT, but I now consider Pleasant Grove, UT my home. I’ve lived in Utah Valley since 1991 and in Pleasant Grove since 1998.
I–Indulgence(s): Food, food, and more food. I love cooking new foods and savoring every bite.
J–January or July: July. There are more paid vacation days to look forward to in July than in January. In January, they’re in the too-recent past.
K–Kids: Two. I have the two most wonderful sons a person could ask for.
L–Life is incomplete without: a way to be the center of attention. I teach and do theatre for that particular purpose. :)
M–Marriage Date: June 7, 1991.
N–Number of Siblings: 4 brothers. All of our names begin with the letter D. Dad sometimes called us Big D, Big Middle D, Middle D, Little Middle D, and Little D.
O–Oranges or Apples: If the orange isn’t bitter or off-tasting, I’ll take it over an apple…unless the apple is grainy. I’d settle for clementines. They’re ALWAYS juicy and tasty.
P–Phobias or Fears: Heights. Well, not so much heights as falling from them. Well, not so much the fall as the sudden deceleration at the bottom.
Q–Quote(s): “The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be.” –Douglas Adams
R–Reason To Smile: I’m in a play with my older son.
S–Season: Spring.
T–Tag Six: If you read this, you’ve been tagged.
U–Unknown Fact about Me: Another one of these?? Hmmm. You didn’t know that I had Marshmallow Mateys and milk for breakfast today.
V–Vegetarian or Oppressor of Animal: If we weren’t supposed to eat animals, why are they made of meat? I LOVE a well-aged, properly prepared steak. I watched animal activist videos of meat slaughterhouses. It made me HUNGRY. It’s been a while since I’ve had a good steak. But I also like Heidi’s substitution of this question, so I’ll answer that one too!
V–Venice or Florence: Can my wife and I come along on the trip to Venice first, THEN Florence. Then Venice again, with a side trip to Murano?
W–Worst Habit: Tuning people out when I concentrate on something.
X–X-Rays or Ultrasounds: I’ve had many x-rays. The only broken bone ever found was a cracked rib. I’ve had an ultrasound that diagnosed my gall bladder disease and made it necessary to have abdominal surgery. I also had an ultrasound on the Plantar Fascia of my right foot.
Y–Your Favorite Food: As I mentioned above, I love a properly aged, well-prepared steak. I wish I could afford Ruth’s Chris.
Z–Zodiac: Virgo. But I haven’t read a horoscope in years and years and years.
Yes. Yes, you may come along on the trip to Italy. :) Someday when I’m rich I’ll have a villa there and everyone can stay with me!
