If you're a regular reader of this little patch of the Utataverse, you might just know who I'm talking about.
She's been honeymooning of late with her newly husband-i-fied mate, Benn, and taking a break from her post at The Ink for a bit .. so I thought that it would be swell if we touched base by way of an Interview.
Recorded here for posterity is my midnight IM session with the incomparable BrittneyBush.
Let the base touching begin!
(11:49:07 PM) squishyface!: Now are you gonna interview me? :P
(11:50:30 PM) striatic: yes!
(11:50:38 PM) striatic: wanna do that now?
(11:50:49 PM) squishyface!: Go for it
(11:51:34 PM) striatic: okay, question one: Is Benn as hot in person as he is in photos?
(11:51:55 PM) squishyface!: Even hotter. And he smells good, too.
(11:53:16 PM) striatic: mmm .. question two: how does it feel to have the whole Utata community wishing you well and watching over your matrimonial affairs?
(11:53:55 PM) squishyface!: A little funny, but mostly really nice. I won't turn away any well-wishes people want to offer me!
(11:56:09 PM) striatic: okay .. well i'm going to personally wish you well right now! what say you to that?
(11:56:22 PM) striatic: that's question three, by the way.
(11:56:33 PM) squishyface!: Thank you! And hugs and smoochies! And I wish you well too! Oh, and I got you a present the other day.
(11:56:56 PM) striatic: wow cool! what is it? [question 4]
(11:57:15 PM) squishyface!: Not tellin'. I'm going to mail it tomorrow though.
(11:58:14 PM) striatic: thanks! we eagerly await! okay, question four: how cool is it being part of the ink team?
(11:58:38 PM) striatic: oh wait, that was actually question 5 i think.
(11:59:00 PM) squishyface!: Oh my GOD so cool! Way fun. And it will be even more fun soon when I actually have my brain back again :) One of my favorite parts is getting to pick which photo goes in the corner of my entries.
(12:00:01 AM) striatic: yes, that's totally my favourite part too .. it is like the after dinner mint after writing a big long entry, don't you agree?
(12:00:45 AM) squishyface!: Yes! Though I prefer coffee to mints. Though I had a minty drink yesterday that was good. A grasshopper.
(12:01:28 AM) striatic: okay, last question .. what's the thing you like most about Utata?
(12:02:48 AM) squishyface!: I love that the people there are, without exception it seems, smart, funny, and interesting. They always are doing something cool or reading something cool or have something cool to say. Utata is just full of the kind of people I like to hang out with. And that's the truth - it's what brought me to Utata in the first place.
(12:04:53 AM) striatic: great answer .. thank you Brittney!
(12:05:03 AM) squishyface!: You're welcome!!
(12:05:11 AM) striatic: YAY!
(12:05:16 AM) squishyface!: You can see my agent about the fee
(12:05:22 AM) squishyface!: His name is M. Donkey
(12:05:45 AM) striatic: c/o yahoo! inc.?
(12:05:54 AM) squishyface!: Yes, that's right
(12:06:05 AM) striatic: okay cool. now let's talk about nintendogs.
