Couldn't participate last night due to brother's birthday dinner, but hope I'm not too late to the #AskMeAnything game? Cuz, y'know. You can ask me anything.

Holy crap, I took one phone call and y'all already went nuts. :D Sorry, lemme catch up. LOL (I figured it was going to be a slow start...)

If I could tinge anything? Oh I'd tinge the shit outta my cats. I'd make them all some ombre form of a color of the rainbow. :D (you were hoping I'd say my ladygarden, weren't you. :P )

Running - it's the one thing in the world I absolutely hated to do. I only ever ran while playing soccer. I hated running that didn't involve a soccer ball. And then one day I decided I needed to just get the fuck over it, and I wanted to step up my fitness game. So I started running. I don't hate it anymore, though there are days I'm less keen on it than others. :)

Who or what cracks you up?
- AHnix (Anna Haro)
I've only lived in two states - California and Washington. :) I'm OK with that though. I have a very specific kind of wanderlust that will take care of that eventually.
- Hookuh Tinypants
Favorite swear? Cunt. Hands down. I think it's a fantastic word and I'm sad that it's still so taboo in the states. Next to cunt, "motherfucker" comes next. :)
- Hookuh Tinypants
Favorite city...hm...that's a tough one. Lemme ponder that for a minute. EDIT: I think it's a tie between Sacramento and Austin. I know it's not cool to like Sac but I have always enjoyed its vibe. Austin is just like the hippest place on the planet and while it can sometimes seem too hip for its own good, I like that it's a place where folks can find their niche. Ask me again in a year after I've visited NYC though. That may trump all. :)

I'm already working on lining myself up for a PhD, but we'll see if I ever follow through with it. It would serve little purpose beyond professional vanity, but I do like an academic challenge. And I do love school. But I think maybe going for another bachelor or masters degree might be a better use of my energy. I want to get more focused on forest ecology or water resources.

As George Carlin said . . . curse words are all about the hard "C" sounds. :^)

Which do you think will get you first, instant karma or the rhythm?
- Corinne L
Best fuel for a big race? I love a couple of things - a PB&J made with two whole-grain waffles, almond or natural PB, and strawberry jam. Or if I can't finagle that, then I do hard-boiled eggs, pretzels, and an apple. :)

Top 3 Running Shoes. Heh. Well...part of it is solely based on best fit for your gait and whatnot. But there are some clear winners in my mind. 1. Brooks 2. Saucony 3. Newtons. The Lady Newtons in particular are phenomenal shoes, though the downside with Newtons is they're made for forefoot strikers and not enough runners are already forefoot strikers and require shoes that correct that for them. Brooks and Saucony are just fantastic and offer good shoes for all strikes and gaits.
- Hookuh Tinypants
If you want specific models? I wear Brooks Adrenaline 16's for road, Brooks Cascadia 8's for trail, and in the past I've worn Saucony Hurricanes. I want Lady Newtons so badly but the toe box is just a smidge too narrow for my foot (I'm a D width)

Scariest moment of my life? When I was 6 and my brother and I almost got swept out to sea by a rogue wave. The only thing that saved us was my mom desperately clinging to a rock with one hand while holding both me and my brother by our sleeves with the other. That woman is my goddamned hero.
- Hookuh Tinypants
you still got them ruffle draws? you know, the red ones...
- MoTO Boychick Devil
you still got that ruffle bead - hah!
- Shannon - GlassMistress
Who or what cracks me up? Oh goodness, there's a number of things. George Carlin. Eddie Izzard. Jenny when her and I get going on something. Eivind because he's even worse than Jenny and I combined. :) My brothers. My parents. Old episodes of M*A*S*H. British humor. Pete. Pete and MoTO.
- Hookuh Tinypants
The rhythm will always get me first. Instant karma isn't fast enough. :) I suspect when I get older and slower, that may change.
- Hookuh Tinypants
Sadly I no longer have the ruffle draws, but not for any reason other than they got to be too big for me (which is a good thing!) so I cheekily threw them in a freebie box at one of my TNT garage sales and no joke, someone grabbed them. Garage sale pannies, y'all.
- Hookuh Tinypants
I do definitely still have the ruffle draws bead! :D I finally got around to making myself a necklace for it (black leather cord - seemed appropriate) but I almost wonder if I should make it a Christmas ornament. :D
- Hookuh Tinypants
You mean: "Garage sale pannies." ... FOR THE WIN! I lurved them draws...
- MoTO Boychick Devil
There's nothing like a pair of red ruffle draws to bring an entire socnet's drama to a halt, if only for one night.

Why do you not live closer to me?;)

Favorite scene in Christmas Vacation...Aunt Bethany's arrival. :) There's so many great moments in that film but Aunt Bethany has to take the top prize. "Oh Aunt Bethany, you know you shouldn't have done that." "Oh dear, did I break wind?" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch...)

90's rock dude crush will always be Layne Staley. <3

Will you marry me?
- Melly #FForever
Gabrielle, we need to hang out again soon! I've literally driven by your street twice in the last six months going to races and I'm like "Dude, why do I not make this drive more often?"
- Hookuh Tinypants
But of course, Melly! Just promise I won't have to eat vegemite?
- Hookuh Tinypants
Maybe you need to subscribe http://www.volupties.com/ find a new pair of sexy panties. Were those drives on Sunday...and you didn't stop by?! ;)
- Gabrielle
One was. *sadface* In my defense though, I was running races up along the Skyline Trail out of Sanborn County Park, and afterward I was so wrecked it wasn't even worth getting out of the car until I got home. Boy, if anything could humble me as a runner, it's that damn trail. Oof.

Can I have 300 gold and some large storage bags?
- Joe "The Anvil" Pierce
What's your biggest race pet peeve? (other runners, certain types of runners, etc.)
- Jed
Should I come back to wow in a casual capacity? (This bus a serious q)
- Joe "The Anvil" Pierce
Joe - anything for you, baby. :)
- Hookuh Tinypants
Biggest race pet peeve - lack of basic runner etiquette. This includes slow runners and walkers staying to the right, walkers and runners not stacking 3-4-5 people abreast, people starting in the correct corral for their pace, people checking that they're not stepping in front of faster runners or walkers before they make a sudden movement across a path, taking more food/drink than one person should reasonably be able to consume at any given water stop or finish line, etc.
- Hookuh Tinypants
Joe - Yes. Warlords of Draenor is fantastic and completely makes up for MoP. I promise.
- Hookuh Tinypants
When are we gonna hang out? You're obviously my sister from another mister
- Not LB (or ellbeecee)
SOON. This totally needs to happen. Because it's unnatural that it hasn't yet.
