Ask me anything!

I'll probably answer. I'm pretty blabby. I know you're supposed to select days and stuff, but ain' nobody got time for that. You wanna know how much I weigh, what my favorite coffee is, am I a natural blonde, have I ever killed a man...I'm an open book.

Ooh goody, so first, fandom question. Which is your favourite fandom out of Supernatural and Smallville? Also, your favourite slash and het pairing out of both?

I've lived in NZ all my life. The first 30 years I lived in a small city near the bottom of the North Island. I've never been to the South Island (shame on me, *g*). I lived about 12 years in Auckland, which is our biggest city, but never again. If it wasn't the cost of rent that drove me nuts, it was the transport (public and private). It's pretty much grid-locked in the mornings. I now live in a city that is about 150kms from Auckland.

I don't know if you've ever listened to a band called Crowded House (there's a song covered in Smallville called Don't Dream It's Over, and contrary to popular belief, Crowded House is not an Australian group, considering it was founded by a Kiwi). Anyway, they have a song called Four Seasons in One Day and that's our climate really - well, in the North Island. Other than that, our summers are a lot milder temperature wise than America.

I've been to the States - three years ago. I'd love to come back, but not if a certain person gets into office. I spent most of my vacation on the East side of the country - if I'm right about where you are, I have a friend who lives a few miles away from you, and I stayed with her for a few days, then travelled down to Baltimore.

What I love about New Zealand is that it's so laid-back. Visiting America was great, but as much as I love my two BFFs (one in NJ and the other in Baltimore), I wouldn't want to live there. Prices seem low but wages are low by comparison. It does drive me crazy that everything here is comparatively more expensive, but then we don't have tipping culture here, so I guess it evens out.

Sorry, I've practically written a novel, but I liked your idea of asking questions in the getting-to-know-you kind of spirit. I may just run with it myself :)

Oh, this is lovely! Sadly, I'm off to work now, (work on a Sunday--what madness is *this*???) but I'll comment tonight! :D

A fandom besides SpN or SV? Well I'm starting to like The Magicians very much. I also love Walking Dead. I watch a few shows, but only feel fannish about these.

My fav slash pair for SV has always been Clex. That never changed. My fav pair for SpN is Dean/Sam, but I also liked a bit of Dean/Benny, and I have this strange liking for Sam/Cas. Absolutely no Cas/Dean! I have no het pairing for either of them. The only het pair I shipped like crazy was a pair on Scrubs. They were terrible people who made me laugh! They were horrified to discover that they were in love with each other, and I kind of liked that. :D

New Jersey!! Where does your friend live in NJ? If you ever come back, we have to try and get together! :)

I think this state is so damn expensive to live in but that's because we're between New York and Philadelphia and the relatively rich people drive all the prices up and squeeze us poor folks. It's a crummy situation.

My friend lives in Bridgewater. I think she's on your friends list. She's a lovely, lovely person and an awesome friend. As are you, my dear. I have plans to see a few people on my friends list when I do return to the States. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could all gather in the same place and meet each other?

I had lunch once at a restaurant near my friend's place and I couldn't believe the price. Even when I took currency conversion into account. But I think when you take into account wages, tips etc, it's pretty much the same.
