[Note: This is cross-posted from Married Exploits]

Yesterday we wrote our first guest post for Odysseus and Penelope’s blog, “Married Exploits.” Today is Part II - Marky’s questions for me. Here we go:
How do you feel about having a husband who makes a living as a fetish writer?
Answer: It is a little odd to know that on a normal work day you are immersed in porn, but it’s a good match for you, for us, for our lifestyle (and you kick ass at it!) My blog and my side businesses are all a result of you getting that job. And it should be mentioned that we met our closest friends because of his job.

Who is the one person (same conditions) that you would want to join us in bed?
Answer: You only allow me one? That’s worse than me asking you to pick just one favorite song. I guess in the spirit of conquest, I’d have to say Lauren. (But there are so many possibilities… )

What is your favorite Coldplay song of the moment and why?
Answer: Amsterdam, on the Live 2003 DVD/CD (it’s not expensive [$15] and the DVD has the live version of Life is for Living, which is the single best version.) because it’s a beautiful love song in the same way that Etta James‘ Out of the Rain is beautiful. A song about having no hope in life, feeling at the end of your rope, being on the way down, the edge, sick to the stomach… being set free [Oh, you came along and you cut me loose...]

What is the best thing about writing Catalina loves her Collar? Have you had any surprises?
Answer: I am surprised that the more honest I am, the better people respond. I love the connections I’ve made with people. I know it’s cheesy, but I do believe that everybody that crosses your path is there to teach and/or learn something from you. I try to find that thing with everybody I meet. Every single day I am surprised by people - sometimes in a good way and sometimes not so good. Most of all, I am surprised to find out that I can make a living doing something I love. Of course, worship and adoration can’t be overlooked.

When do you want to invite Penelope and Odysseus to Charlotte for the weekend? (wink)
Answer: As soon as you can arrange for the kids to be out of the house! (wink!)

Bonus Question: Did you ever know that a love like this was real, Buttercup?
Answer: What a sweet question! No. You know that when you met me I was a firm non-believer in Love. I am so grateful, though, that we have It. That we honor It on the highest level, above all else, It takes priority. Nothing is better than true love, it’s what saved Westley:

Miracle Max: Hey! Hello in there. Hey! What’s so important? What you got here that’s worth living for?

Westley: … tr … oooo …. luv…

Inigo: True love. You heard him. You could not ask for a more noble cause than that.

Miracle Max: Sonny, true love is the greatest thing in the world. Except for a nice MLT, a mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe. They’re so perky, I love that. But that’s not what he said. He distinctly said “to blave.” And, as we all know, “to blave” means “to bluff.” So you’re probably playing cards, and he cheated —

Valerie: Liar! — LIAR-LI-A-A-AR!

Miracle Max: Get back, witch!

Valerie: I’m not a witch, I’m your wife. But after what you just said, I’m not even sure I want to be that anymore.

Miracle Max: You never had it so good.

Valerie: “True love.” He said, “true love,” Max. My God —

Miracle Max: Don’t say another word, Valerie.

Valerie: He’s afraid. Ever since Prince Humperdinck fired him, his confidence is shattered.

Miracle Max: Why’d you say that name — you promised me that you would never say that name.

Valerie: What, Humperdinck? Humperdinck. Humperdinck. Ooo-ooo, Humperdinck!

Miracle Max: [holding his hands over his ears] I’m not listening!

Valerie: A life expiring and you don’t have the decency to say why you won’t help.

Miracle Max: Nobody’s hearing nothing!

Valerie: Humperdinck. Humperdinck! Humperdinck!

Inigo: But this is Buttercup’s true love — If you heal him, he will stop Humperdinck’s wedding.

Valerie: Humperdinck. Humperdinck —

Miracle Max: [to Valerie] Shut up! [to Inigo] Wait. Wait. I make him better, Humperdinck suffers?

Inigo: Humiliations galore!

Miracle Max: That is a noble cause. Give me the sixty-five, I’m on the job.
