Our first interview that's not us: Cristy H

What is your name?



Cristy Hanlon



What is your hometown?


I have lived all over - I have lived in more than 17 places, including (but not limited to): Texas, West Texas, Austin, Houston, Dallas, College Station; Colorado, Boulder & outside of Denver; Michigan - all around the St. Joseph/Benton Harbor area (bottom left of the hand if you do the mitten thing); and now West Virginia, Parkersburg. I never really felt like I had a "hometown" until I moved here, and this is the longest I've EVER lived anywhere, so I guess I'm adopting it as my "hometown" now. So - Parkersburg, WV. :)


What illogical superstition do you insist on following?


I still kiss the clasp of my necklace if it works its way to the front and make a wish. :) And, I *totally* believe that sending good vibes to the television helps a football team win.



If you could eat nothing but one food your entire life what would it be?


Pizza! I love all kinds of pizza, too. My fave (that I've tasted - I'm sure great Italian restaurants have better) right now is Papa John's with sausage, ham, green pepper and mushrooms. I DIE!



What sound or noise do you love?


The ocean. One of the best parts of our honeymoon in Hawaii was being able to keep our sliding door to the balcony open at night to listen to the waves as we fell asleep. Blissful. Heaven. Calming. Peaceful.


If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?


"Hey, thanks for helping me convince ... to come this way!"



Do you have a blog or website you'd like to plug?


Sure! Check out my tomncristy blog. I update almost every day, and I write about all kinds of things - our home, our projects, my hubby, our animals, my studying, my spirituality, my family. I LOVE visitors and comments, so feel free to drop a line! Join me on my quest to become a better human being and Finding the Positive! :)

Thanks Cristy! I'm totally jealous that you've lived in so many places, although I know it was probably difficult to move so much. I've always lived in Illinois and me and my husband dream about moving somewhere warm, with mountains and/or a beach. Glad you like WV!


I'd never heard of kissing the clasp on a necklace, I always made a wish when it got turned around. I wonder where this stuff comes from?
I love Papa Johns too, i'm just sad that there aren't any around here anymore.
