Because that whore Aunt Becky told me to. Wait, not THAT Becky. A different Becky. No, not you. (sigh) nevermind.

Today we are participating in a little Q&A (though my personal preference is always and forever T&A, this will have to do) with Aunt Becky. Go check out her blog so she can see how many of my beloved readers are willing to jump ship at any given moment. Then come back and read my answers to her probing, insightful questions.



1) Do you like sprinkles on your ice cream?

Only rainbow sprinkles. And they have to be the good, candy kind, not the weird mealy bits of plastic-y crap.
YES THERE IS A DIFFERENCE SHUT UP.


2) If you had to choose one word to banish from the English language, what would it be and why?

Well, I think Aunt Becky is already on a mission to eradicate "moist" (THANK YOU) so I am going to go with "erudite".

3) If you were a flavor, what would it be?

Rum. Sweet, intoxicating, best in small amounts, great with eggnog, and a real bitch in the morning. Those butter rum Lifesavers are the Best Thing Ever. Rum Raisin ice cream sucks only because of the presence of raisins, which I feel too closely resemble rodent droppings to be safely consumed. WHAT IF THERE WAS A TERRIBLE MIX-UP ??? Rum ice cream, however, sounds pretty damn good.

4) What’s the most pointless annoying chore you can think of that you do on a daily/weekly basis?

Flushing the toilet after my son has forgotten to do so. And trust me - after he's been in the bathroom, just passing the doorway is a chore.

5) Of all the nicknames I’ve ever had in my life, Aunt Becky is the most widely known and probably my favorite. What’s your favorite nickname? (for yourself)

Meh. Nicknames. My blogging identity is a name generated by one of those "what's your stripper name" quizzes. It's stuck pretty well. So I'll go with Daffodil. Daffodil Campbell is my favorite nickname.

6) You're stuck on a desert island with the collective works of 5 (and only five) musical artists for the rest of your life. Who are they?

Ben Harper
G. Love
Norah Jones
Pearl Jam
Ray LaMontagne

7) Everything is better with bacon. True or false?

Only savory things. But every savory thing, yes.


8 ) If I could go back in time and tell Young Aunt Becky one thing, it would be that out of chaos, order emerge. Also: tutus go with everything. What would you tell young self?

Don't marry that guy. Go to Europe. Do something cool. Figure out who you are on your own terms.
