(Audience participation required)

Alright, alright... get your minds OUT of the gutter. Or rather don't, I like you that way.

Open Forum time people. Seriously.

I was having a pretty good day today, except for the occassional office interruption. I think for the first time I am feeling some clarity as far as organization and being back on track is concerned. There is one open-ended item I would like to finish... but besides that. Feeling pretty fucking awesome today.

I have to laugh, because amidst all the preparations for the impending trip to Vegas with my friends, now it seems my attention and excitement has been turned a different direction... who snarked me out and told the local alternative magazine in the area about my blog...hmmmm? who? Would have to be somebody close.... that limits my list to a steady few.

So, here's what went down. Checking email, get one from a local popular paper, wanting to know if I would be available for interview and potentially write an article...wtf?
Uhhh, like I need more shit on my to-do... this could be fun though.

I reply and accept the invitation for an online interview... no phone, no person to person. Just online Q and A's...
I am waiting to hear back at this point if this will work or not. With my luck I'll have to meet in person... *sigh*

This magazine is alternative, but highly distributed and enjoyed in the area. Sure, there is one I can think of that would be bigger than this; but that would be the creme' de la creme' of alternative publications. The chance of them contacting me would be the same as a suitcase full of vibrators (all shapes and sizes) being dropped off a sky scraper and landing in my meek little arms.
*thinking on that visual*

But I digress,There will be a lot of readers capturing the essence of Bubblegum Meltdown, and wanting to know more about the author - me. That's cool, I told you before I'm a giver.
I have read the interviews they have done in the past, and some really fucking weird (yet insightful) questions are usually presented... I want to be on the ball (or two) for this; so here's where you come in - help me prepare.

I am granting everybody ONE question... just one.
I will answer, and answer honestly. Then present it in my next post.... I am asking that you not put your questions in the comments area - they must be emailed.
Furthermore, if you want to remain anonymous and send a question... then use somebody elses email log in LOL.
IF you're still feeling pissy about the email, and just HAVE to use the comments section... you will be spanked, but your question noted and answered.

As a sidenote: somebody joked about whether I am collecting email addresses..LOL no. So, go ahead and comment them instead. Just thought that people would like a more shielded way of questioning... Ultimately, it's your choice... play safe. But if I do decide to collect email addresses, it's only for Christmas Card lists. HOLLA!

I will not post who sent which question... promise. Unless of course you want to be noted, in which case please forward that you do and I will... capiche?

No seriously, help me out here... throw me a bone even...
if you had to ask me just one question, for interview purposes... what would it be?

k, go now and choose your question.

Interesting request Murph- do you write your own material?

No seriously though.. I would think that this particular participation would entice you.

Go on now, try me on for size.
