1. What other profession would you like to try out?
I'd enjoy trying to be a judge. I'm not sure I'd like it on a daily basis, but I think it would be fun. Of course, that's sort of the same job I have now (lawyer-ish), but it would definitely be different. For a completely unrelated job, I think I would like to try architecture... the idea of building a house that really incorporated all of the preferences of the owners as well as the environment is interesting to me. We spent a lot of time looking at houses, and found that most really weren't designed for the owners.
2. What is your favorite cuss word and why?
Hmm... favorite cuss word. I don't know. Maybe "bloody" because it's not really American English, and somehow sounds better than "fucking"... because fucking is not a bad thing, but bloody clearly is.
3. In a perfect world, how does Andrew turn out?
Intelligent, happy, healthy, and well adjusted, of course. I'd love it if he became 5th generation engineer, but I won't insist on that. And hopefully living to a ripe old age too.
4. When are you going to buy a new car?
I really like my car ('94 Acura Legend, V6, manual 6 speed), but I would trade it in for the right car... probably not "new" but "new to me." I bought the Acura used in '97. As for a new car, I'm still waiting for the hybrid that's big enough for everyone, and all my stuff. I really pondered buying the Prius, but couldn't imagine fitting baby stuff in there. Hopefully they'll have a full-size wagon or the like that has a gas mileage I can live with.
5. If you were to get a pet, what kind would it be?
Probably a fish, for the low impact? I'm not that much of a pet person, and Charles and I have a fundamental disagreement about taking care of pets (he believes that pets are wild animals that you feed and play with). We have played with the idea of a habitrail fish tank. But fish are basically animated furniture.
