Are you more productive at night or in the morning? Do you think it’s possible to change and get used to another schedule?

I was going to say I’m more productive at night but that might not be accurate. I feel more awake at night and I’m therefore more likely to want to do something but I’m somehow not motivated to do stuff. I’m a miserable morning person but there’s usually a good two hours in there right after my coffee when I can work my way through tasks. I think it’s possible to change to another schedule but in the end only one will truly mesh with your natural rhythms.

What’s the biggest vehicle you’ve driven? If you don’t drive, what’s the biggest vehicle you’ve ridden in?

I once drove a fifteen passenger van on a youth mission trip and it’s not an exaggeration to say I was various measures of terrified that entire week.

What songs would be played on a loop in hell? (Suspend disbelief for this one, it’s cool not to believe in Hell, but let’s use our imaginations to answer. Of course one can always skip the questions they find odd too. And yes, I took into account that individual tastes will influence individual choices.)

Let’s see. I vote “Cherry Pie” by — umm, I dunno, whoever sings that “she’s my cherry pie” thing, Debbie Boone’s “You Light Up My Life,” “Don’t Worry, Be Happy,” and Billy Ray Cyrus’ “Achy Breaky Heart.”

(Deep and chewy philosophical question): What does it mean to be a person? What constitutes “personhood?” (there may be some diverse opinions, but we’re all mature adults in here, so be respectful of others please).

I believe personhood comes from a soul experiencing life on this earth. Is that broad enough?

How were your spirits (mood) over the past week? 

Generally speaking I’d say I hovered back and forth between happy and tired with a splash of consternation.
