- What’s something you always thought you would do but never have?Â
Go to Europe! My wife and I have always dreamt of going to Europe but will have to wait until the kids get older now.
- If you had to eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be?Â
Sushi until I get mercury poisoning.
- What’s your biggest irrational phobia and why?Â
I'm afraid of flying but as I get older its more about the entire process that stresses me out and less about the actual flying part. Getting to the airport, going through security, finding your gate, boarding the plane, lots of waiting around to take off... makes for long travel days.
- What movie can you watch over and over again?
I weirdly hate watching movies twice. Always looking for something new to watch.
- What is your useless superpower?
Being able to fall asleep within 5 seconds of my head hitting the pillow.
- What's your favorite adult beverage (if you like to indulge)?Â
Beers - West Coast IPA's
- What's something about you that you don't like to admit?Â
I am a clean freak, probably partly OCD about my house being clean.Â
- If you were to pick an animal you are most like, what would it be and why?Â
A Stallion. Wild and stubborn.Â
