If not love, something pretty close. But this wasn't a coworker at what I'd call a 'real job', but rather a job I was doing while still in college/early Grad School on the side. I was a bouncer at a bar part-time on weekends and she was a bartender/waitress. It was a fling and it was great. Definitely more than just a quick thing. But certainly not love. We admitted to each other we had feelings but the timing was such that both of us had some pretty complicted relationship issues at the time (re: in the middle of some messy stuff), so it didn't work out. For the best, as years later, we're still friends.
APBM,
Have you ever had a fling with a co-worker (re: not as extreme as love)?

No, although I might have come pretty close at the piano bar in San Diego, when I was going on about having Superboy-Prime punch off a certain somebody's head.
APBM,
Have you ever finished a meal at a restaurant, and then realized you didn't have your wallet/purse/any money at all on you?

No, thankfully, but I did have the embarrassment to have a credit card declined a few years ago because it was maxxed out from business expenses. Luckily I was with friends and had another credit card with me. Still, pretty embarrassing!
APBM,
Have you ever finished a meal at a restaurant and been so dissapointed by the service and the food that you considered not paying?

No, but I have been so dissatisfied with the service I have not left a tip. Oh and one time, no one came after we were seated that we left before ordering. And wonderful American Express moment there Cobie.
APBM,
Which is you favorite season and why?

Autumn - its always been my favorite, and a lot of it reminds me of going back to school (I loved High School, especially my junior and senior year) and going back to college (I also loved college). There's a sense of 'newness' going on, of things changing, of things are about to get really fun but who knows how it will happen. I also love the Autumn in New England, where the change in seasons is ever apparent, and I like the shift to Fall sports, such as college football and even the NFL in recent years because I enjoy the Sunday craziness and going out to the bar for Monday Night football. And I also love the oncoming onslaught of holidays/events, especially Halloween and Thanksgiving. And there's a ton of other reasons too. I like the increasingly brisk nature of the season, which makes me sleep better than any other season (where its still not too cold like winter).
APBM,
Same question, if you don't mind...

Autumn also, because the weather is perfect, not too hot, not too cold, no icy roads and I don't mind rain. The bugs are gone. The tourists are gone (they're not so bad, but they put a lot of pressure on inadequate infrastructure). The garden is finished, except for clean-up, and there's lots of hope that things will be better next year. We get the wood stove going, which I love. And, yes, excellent sleeping weather.
APBM,
Are you worried about the CERN Accelerator creating a black hole that will destroy the Earth on September 10th?
posted
No. I am more worried about the Sun going nova in 5 billion years and obliterating the Earth.
APBM,
Do you think there is intelligent life on other planets?

I have no doubt it was spent discovering the secrets of the universe, drinking mind-eraser shots and hoping to find out where Judd has imprisoned Pam.
APBM,
Where do you think Loser Lad is these days?

Not sure exactly but I suspect it has to do with grad school / teaching courses and beginning of a semester / publishing his thesis? Its hard to comprehend what keeps the brillant, hat-wearing one busy, so we can only to his return.
APBM,
Now what about Frio?

Frio is the alt character of our beloved Caliente. She has cold based powers. That's about all I know about Frio.
APBM,
What was your first favorite TV show when you were a little kid?

Not really, but I don't mind it. It was definitely way before my time, but I remember thinking it was so cool that Batman was on TV whenever I saw reruns.
APBM,
Did you absolutely love the Batman: The Animated Series cartoon, and if not, why the heck not?
