If you could erase one trend from history, what would it be? To the ladies: You have your parents, their parents, and everyone that came before you to thank for your butt. Do not try to make it bigger. Exercise for shaping it is fine, but do not make it bigger. We are all differentContinue reading “Leave Your Butt Alone”

What’s a piece of media (book, movie, song) that changed how you see the world? After I read this book I knew two things: I was an environmentalist and I was not a capitalist.

Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you. I was in London in July 2011, getting on the Tube late at night, and I take the first available seat. Sitting right across from me was Robert Knepper, who played T-Bag on Prison Break. I lean in and whispered “Are you…?” HeContinue reading “Random Encounter with T-Bag”

What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? Not really an Ability but weird Coincidences. When I was kid I would think about a rerun of a show I wish would air and then it would. Last week I randomly thought about an actor, wondering what they were doing, and thenContinue reading “Secret Abilities”

If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why? This woman to me represents the ultimate power in the most turbulent of times. She knew William Shakespeare, kicked her former brother-in-law’s ass (Spanish Armada) and made England the richest country in Europe. On top of that, she brought peace between ProtestantsContinue reading “Queen Elizabeth I”

Career: I will have my own law firm in North Portland, right next to King Burrito and the art supply store.  I will specialize in landlord-tenant law, immigration, and do some criminal law. Family: A few munchkins running around. Husband: Give me Liberty or Give meContinue reading “Three Years From Now”

Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live? I wasn’t diagnosed with ADHD until immediately before law school. I just thought I was a terrible student. Knowing what I know now, I would have gotten diagnosed earlier, got medicated, and then buckled down. Plus I would not have taken on aContinue reading “Can I get a College Do Over?”

What historical event fascinates you the most? I was obsessed with learning about two things in the 7th grade: The Salem Witch Trials and everything about Queen Elizabeth I. Philip of Spain really thought he could go up against his former sister-in-law and invade England with his lame Armada.  Nope! I wish I could goContinue reading “Queen Elizabeth and Salem Witch Trials”

Describe a family member. I can’t capture my mother’s personality in one post so fyi. My mother is a social butterfly and demands the attention of everyone in the room. She would capture your ear at a party because she can do a really incredible Mexican Grito (scream). I’ve never tried. The first thing myContinue reading “My Mother/ Mi Madre”

What would you do if you lost all your possessions? If I lost all my stuff I would start the painstaking work of having to replace it all. Perhaps I would appreciate the moment of life as an involuntary minimalist and own less.
