I’ve got too many tabs open, a manuscript to finish editing, and I should probably be sleeping, but Snook’s got me thinking and feeling deep over over here, so I figure I’ll answer her questions. @eveningart, @enginewitty, @saffisara and @snook made me do it.

Oh, and my truth-filter seems to have jumped ship tonight.

Uncensored opinions ahead. You’ve been warned.

How ‘bout an old pic of me with a lion? Sweet, sweet lion. Can I get in there and hug you?

Snook’s Questions:

---

Would you let me slap you for a hundred dollars and why?

Yeah, sure. I need the money. I get hit/kicked/bruised on a daily basis raising boys, so a momentary sting ain’t no thing. I’d prefer you slap my ass, though. ;)

What time do you normally go to bed and why?

Aw shit. I should be in bed now. My body would prefer if I slept from 10pm to 8am every day. Yes, that’s a lot of sleep. YOU try growing two babies at once, birthing them, nursing them for two years, and waking up multiple times a night for years on end. Yes I want 10 hours of sleep every night, but it doesn’t happen. ‘Cause this is my me time. So, I’ll head to bed around midnight.

Favourite day of the week and why?

Day of the week? There are days? They all run together for me. I guess I’ll pick Thursdays, ‘cause I get to hang with everyone on PYPT.

What board game do you hate the most and why?

Really? You’re going to ask me about a board game? How about what boring game do I hate most and why? I’d say politics. It’s boring as fuck because it feels like nothing is happening, just a bunch of people doing shady deals to enrich themselves while the rest of the world is held back because the politicians are the ones who are supposed to be playing leadership roles, but all they’re doing is jacking off and bickering and hogging resources and playing god. Same old shit gets old.

If you had the world's attention for 30 seconds, what would you say?

We are all children of the earth. Please be kind to each other and the planet. If we work together we can create a better world for ourselves, and our children, and their children, and all the souls who come to play on Pachamama’s belly.

Thanks for reading.

Take care of yourself, you are a gift!

Peace. @katrina-ariel
