Life in the Glasshouse

1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)

I am a part time graphic designer for the local brewpub and weekly DJ at the college radio station. I live with my roommate and my cat, The Ghost of Ms. Ophelia K.

2. Where are you from?

I was born in the frozen wastes of Minnesota but moved to the western high desert of Idaho at a fairly young and tender age. In my mid-20s I moved to Phoenix and spent 4 wonderfully warm years there before returning to the bucolic rural nightmare that is south eastern Idaho.

3. Who is your favorite author?

It's hard to play favorites, but at any given time I might answer Philip K. Dick, H.P. Lovecraft or Ursula K. LeGuin.

4. What are your favorite films?

In order: Casablanca, Taxi Driver, Blade Runner, The Doom Generation, John Carpenter's The Thing.

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?

Taps.

6. At your funeral?

The Cure - "Head on the Door"

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?

I don't. But I have to so if I got to pick, it would be while gently sleeping. How dreadfully boring, I know.

8. What kind of casket would you want?

Cremate me and shoot me into space.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?

Conservative dark button-down paired with comfortable black jeans, combat boots and a tasteful jacket.

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?

The length of an hour was so much longer then.

11. What's your favorite band?

Unanswerable. For an idea:
www.last.fm/user/devonsego
wallofsleepradio.blogspot.com

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?

Currently a freshman at the university studying Mass Comm with an emphasis in advertising. Also aiming for a minor in fine art. Trying to equitably balance a lucrative future with personal enrichment, really.

13. Why did you join?

I live in the middle of nowhere. The internet is the only place I can find people with similar interests to speak with.

Most of the time it is what I make of it, so I try not to pine too hard for different climes. What part were you in? Where are you now?

Boise's not half bad. It's a bustling metropolis compared to Pocatello. At least it gets halfway decent bands through.
What do you do down in sunny SoCal?

Gotta love Philip K. Dick.

Also, your taste in films is pretty stellar.
