An interview with a not so hideous man

With the recent loss of one of my favorite authors, David Foster Wallace and my recent reemergence on the blog, I thought I'd give a personal update in the method of one of his most interesting essays, Brief Interviews with Hideous Men. As a result, I'm giving the answers. You get to guess the questions.

Q:
A: December 9, 2008 is my last day. Graduation is in January.
Q:
A: PR is interesting and my project is a challenge but is going well.
Q:
A: I'm not sure what is next. Some potential ideas include doing tax preparation work, getting into mediation, working for a nonprofit, financial advising, etc. Needless to say a lot of options are still on the table.
Q:
A: I quit working for Anvil in June. I still get along very well with the team there but personal issues were such that I couldn't be providing quality work for the team. However, the relationship is great and I'm doing my final project on their behalf.
Q:
A: Getting better, thanks for asking.
Q:
A: A mastectomy, a ray resection and a knee replacement with rotator cuff surgery still on the docket. I know Good Sam Hospital quite well.
Q:
A: A new nephew named Dashiell. He's two months old and is as cute as a troll :)
Q:
A: I ran a successful Hood to Coast, with our team finishing just over 26 hours. Now my spare time is spent training for the California International Marathon on December 7th.
Q:
A: Qualify for Boston (3:10 or less). I've got other goals but those are top secret. If I make them, you'll be sure to know.
Q:
A: That's all the news that's fit to print.

Love the _&A! Perhaps authorhood awaits when you finish school.

Who is dealing with mastectomy, rotator cuff repair, etc? Sounds just awful. You'll have to answer your "Q" part on that one.

Hoping to see you guys very soon!
