Some more questions, from toripink
1. If you could be any woman in the world, who would you be and why?
I can’t think of a famous woman I’d like to be, but I can’t think of a famous man I’d like to be either, so it would have to come down to characteristics rather than actual people. I’d like to be someone who was good with people, someone dynamic, someone successful, someone who didn’t believe in the bad things that many people think hold women back in careers.
2. Coffee or tea?
Coffee. White, no sugar.
3. If you could have done anything else as a job what would it have been?
Driving. Probably lorry driving.
4. Have you ever really regretted a decision?
Not yet. Which I take to mean I’m not doing it right. I’m not very good at decision making and tend to wait until there isn’t a decision to be made any more. There are, of course, things I’ve done which I’ve been unhappy about, and things I haven’t done that I’ve been unhappy about. But most of those weren’t really resolved to a single decision that I could say was bad – they normally come back to me saying a long series of low-level stupid things.
5. Are you happy?
Am I giving off unhappy vibes, or something? Thats the second time in as many weeks someone has asked me that after a hiatus of several years. No, I don’t think I’m happy. But equally I don’t think I’m unhappy. I am, however, learning a bit about happiness at the moment, since I’m not working and a lot of people think that that leads to happiness (in the context of an active decision to not work), thats not happening for me at the moment – I think I need more interaction with people, so I probably need to do something about my social life.
