1) This song is about a friendship that turned romantic ... and it doesn't end happily. Have you ever crossed that line with a friend? If so, how did it work out?

No. But I once had a fling with my twin sister's friend's husband.  I knew it was wrong but having a twin helped with alibi's! She went nuts when I told her who it was and he DIDN'T leave his wife.  I've been married 25 years and have kind of grown out of the fling thing stuff!

2) When he was a kid, this week's singer, Alex Clare, listened to his dad's Stevie Wonder records. When you were in 7th/8th grades, what music were you into?

Blondie was my biggest passion and other new wave sounds - eg,The Ramones I still had a huge interest in 60's music having 3 older brothers who played records non-stop!
 

3) "Too Close" has been featured on the TV show, The Vampire Diaries. Do you enjoy shows/books/movies about the supernatural?

I adore supernatural films and books.  Can't get enough of ghosts, me!  And I think there is something erotic in vampire films, too.  I've never watched VD or Twilight for that matter. My favourite ever Dracula was Gary Oldman in the 1993 Bram Stoker's It was a real touching love story in between the gallons of blood.

4) Some of Alex Clare's tour dates were sponsored by Bud Light. Do you like beer?


I have the odd shandy now and then but I'm virtually tee-total and almost totally on tea!

5) Mr. Clare trained to be a chef, just in case the music thing didn't work out. Are you a good cook? 

I'm a lousy cook.  My darling hubby takes care of that sort thing.  I'm quite good at boiled eggs and icing a cake but that's about it!

6) Crazy Sam is forever running out of mayo because she slathers it on her sandwiches. What is currently on your grocery list?

I badly need vinegar. I opened a bottle top and flung half of it on my fish and chips. Hubby had swapped brands and made a hole in the top of the lid!

7) Where are you most likely to find spare change -- between the sofa cushions, in your jeans as you toss them into the washer, or under the floor mat of your car?

I think the most likely place would be the sofa. I've been cut while searching before so the money will stay put until it's time for a new sofa!

8) How did you spend your Friday night -- working late, hanging out with friends, or just enjoying a quiet night at home?

Curled up on the sofa with a bag of fresh popcorn and the boys all out the house! Bliss!

9) Do you use Pinterest?

 No. I really only use Blogger.  Although I've heard most people are Pinteresters.  I'll give it a miss for now.....
