Absolutely. I still fight against stagnation, and I win that fight most days. If I stop fighting, then I'll very quickly go from being who I am to being... well, not a contributing member of society. This year I hope to make some strides in the direction of being significantly more affective at my goals and aspirations. I'll be trying very, very hard.

In the coming year, do you think you will a.) do something you've never done before? b.) do something you'll regret c.) do something the old you wouldn't even have considered or d.) all of the above?
I certainly hope for d! I seek out new experiences- don't always like them (yet am thankful for the experience even if I never want to repeat it) and the old me wouldn't have even conceived that I'd enjoy many of the things I'm passionate about so I can only hope that I'll do a bit of all of the above. I already have some plans to go place I've never been before, so that's a good start.

When was the last time you gave flowers?
Flowers plural? That's likely been years- I gave my dad a bouquet for his birthday a long time ago. More recently, I've given a single rose to crrreature (I thought it was our anniversary and he was out hosting an event without him- it was an orange rose) and a rose each to two of my playmates when we were out on a date last year to commemorate the forming of our tricycle. Both times were inspired by someone walking by with a basket of roses and me enjoying the color and wanting to celebrate the moment.
I am a firm believer in using the word "Cunt". Howdo you react internally to this word. Do you use it?
I'm not a big fan, but every word has it's place. I rarely use/like others to use slang in reference to my own body parts. I'm a genderqueer and have bit of a Victorian sensibility, so I've actually never sought out having any slang utilized, much less the one you mention.
I don't usually use it, but that's more indicative of the fact that I try to limit my use of harsh language in general. I've caught myself using it recently as an insult, but I'm not a big fan of forming such habits. I do so strive to be a gentelman...

What would your dream job look like?
I would teach on sex-positive topics at least monthly, have the opportunity to offer performance art regularly, travel to a variety of locations to do the previous two things, have my written work published regularly, work as a consultant for media, manage my household and work on projects that I care deeply about all while being able to pay my bills and contribute to causes that I care about. I call this dream job "Being a Professional Julian."
