For the Scooby Spotlight this week we have @PassionBecoming - ehere are a few questions to start things off:

1. How did you find BB? What were your first thoughts about it?
2. What is it about Buffy that has you ‘coming back’?
3. If you could guest star in any Buffy or Angel episode, which episode would you choose?
4. What does a day in your life usually look like?
5. If you could swap lives with one person for a day who would it be?

Everyone please feel free to post your own questions throughout the week.

🙂
 
Were you ever a Bangel shipper ? (this is in reference to your previous avatar)
 
If someone forces you to eat 3 pounds of (single type) solid food in a meal. What food would you choose?
 
Doctors tell you that you can no longer have caffeine, how soon after that do you have a coffee?

1. I was watching Becoming Pts. 1 and 2 one night at home and a question about something popped into my head so I went to the Google and a BB thread was the first answer. I wasn't sure what to think as I had never been on a forum of any sort before that. I read a lot and stalked for about a month before signing up!
2. The style of humor speaks to me. I love horror and monster shows and movies. I love when girls get to kick some butt, too! The characters just appeal to me.
3. Oh, man. I will be obvious and say OMWF. I am a musical theater nut and love singing and dancing!
4. I get up and get myself ready (hopefully before the kids wake up!), get the kids fed and dressed, drop the younger two at whichever family members they will be with, drop the eldest at school, work until 4:00 pm, gather the children and trek home. Then I cook, clean, get things ready for the next morning, put the kids to bed, then have "me" time (lately that has included reading and watching Supernatural and/or The Black List.)
5. Hmmm...I'm not sure. I think it would be fun to be a guy for a day, but I'm not sure who specifically.

How has any character from either show or either show itself impacted any aspect of your life other than entertainment?
I don't think any has consciously impacted me. I do like and admire Spike and Angel in that they fight against "you are this, and you will always be this" and try to make themselves and the world better. That's something I want to strive for and sometimes making myself or the world around me better is difficult.

Were you ever a Bangel shipper ? (this is in reference to your previous avatar)
I've never really been a shipper of any two characters, per say. I prefer Bangel over Spuffy, and my favorite is actually Briley, but I believe each relationship has its place and its high and low points. I do believe that Buffy and Angel are "soul mates" or what have you, but that doesn't mean they necessarily belong together.

If someone forces you to eat 3 pounds of (single type) solid food in a meal. What food would you choose?
Pizza or spaghetti. Pretty sure I've actually done that with these two without actually being forced....

Which song do you know all the lyrics to?
So many songs. Pretty much every country song ever.

Doctors tell you that you can no longer have caffeine, how soon after that do you have a coffee?
Heh. I walk out of the office to the nearest Caribou Coffee and get a large latte.

Are there really 1000 lakes or is that just myth?
Actually, the slogan is 10,000 and there are actually way more! I can't remember the exact distance, but my hometown is the only city in the world where you can start walking in any direction from it and you will hit a lake within a mile (or something like that!).

I knew it was 1000 my 0 sticks.. shit! I cant even type 10000.

Do you ice fish? whoops.
Do you ever ice fish? You have one of those little sheds? Do those little sheds have a name? I was always curious to try that.

Yes, sir, I LOVE ice fishing!! My husband has a pop-up fish house (like a heavy duty tent attached to a sled). The tent folds down into the sled and you can store all your gear in it and haul the sled via truck or pull it behind a snowmobile, then set it up wherever on the lake. It has a bench seat in it and you bring a portable heater. It's so fun! Now, the "sheds" (all these are fish houses) are awesome, too. My dad has one he puts out and it has a table and chairs, kitchen cupboards, a small stove, and satellite TV. They also make ones (Google Ice Castle) that have full on kitchens and beds and such.

Those Ice Castles arent bad! And they are cheaper than I thought they would be.
Do you use a power driller to drill the hole or do it by hand? How long does it take for fish to bite?

I have never attempted to auger a hole - I leave that to the men folk. 😛 My husband has a gas auger that works very well. The second question is most complicated. It depends on so many things! The lake you are on, depth, water color, the weather....You can go up north to Lake of the Woods (they have resorts that plow giant roads and rent out fish houses to people, and also store personal fish houses) and you can usually hammer walleye and sauger most times of year. The walleye fishing around my town is hit or miss depending on the weather. A lot of people fish northern pike which is usually good starting now, and lake trout season starts this month and we have some good lakes for those. Sometimes a fish will grab your bait as you're dropping your line down, and other times you wait for hours for a nibble. My favorite is going out in March when the sun is shining; we just park the trucks, drop the tailgates and use pop-ups for crappie fishing. The kids love it, too, because you watch for the orange flag to pop up when a fish bites, so everyone is running around the ice. You can get sunburned on those kinds of days! We bring a cooler of beverages and some camping stoves or a small grill and make up cheddar venison brats and such. Fun days!
 
You get to spend the evening with one Buffy/Angel character. Who would it be and what would you do?

What theme running through either show speaks to you the most?

Cake or Pie?

What are you thoughts on the Dr. Horrible sing-along? Like it? (I haven't seen it)
 
What's your favorite pizza topping?

What's the last book you read?

What are some of your favorite hobbies/pastimes?
 
Do/have you consumed any fan related Buffy/Angel material? Or fan related material from another show/book/movie? (Fanfiction, music videos, message boards, etc)

-Ooo, any character. Probably Buffy and we would do just, you know, girlie stuff! Actually, I would be like, you need a vacation, we're going to my cabin!
-Nothing is ever just black or white. Shades of gray exist in every situation.
-Cake.
-I haven't seen it, either, actually!

What's your favorite pizza topping?

What's the last book you read?

What are some of your favorite hobbies/pastimes?

-Pineapple, mushrooms, and banana peppers. With or without chicken.
-I just finished The Joy of the Gospel by Pope Francis.
-Reading, crocheting, lately watching SPN, lots of things with my kids, being with my dog, being at my cabin, camping, fishing

Do/have you consumed any fan related Buffy/Angel material? Or fan related material from another show/book/movie? (Fanfiction, music videos, message boards, etc)

-I have never been into fanfic at all, nor have I read any of the BtVS books. I have watched some of the music videos that have been put together by fans and I love watching the extras on DVDs and behind the scenes stuff on YouTube. I haven't been on any other message boards or the like other than BB.
