Interview With Danielle Wildermuth, aka Moose

Oh hai, Dani!

Yes… it is time… for… ANOTHER INTERVIEW! This time I interviewed a dear friend of mine… Danielle Wildermuth. I met Dani through Heather who has been friends with her since high school. She’s awesome. Here you go!

Here we go! First question… super easy… who are you?
Danielle Wildermuth aka moose!

You seem to like moose quite a bit… why is this?
My last name Wildermuth was replaced by Wild Moose by my friends in junior high. And it has stuck ever since.

Heather and I are currently living in your childhood home… how did you like growing up there?
I liked being away from everything. Feeling safe to roam the neighborhood. Lots of neighborhood parties.

You’ve recently bought a house of your own… how do you like living there?
I love it! It is so nice to be able to come home to my own couch, my own tv, my own fridge. I am my own boss. I control the A/C and how I choose to allocate my time. It’s nice to sleep in or go to bed late, and know that it is my own decision. Plus, my house to me shows that I have “made” it. This is what I have always wanted, my own house.

I know you’re a big fan of reading. What are some of your favorite books?
The girl who owned a city, Harry Potter, Wheel of Time Series, Sookie Stackhouse, A Discovery of Witches.

Which house would you be sorted into if you went to Hogwarts?
Gryffindor!

How do you think the movies compared to the books?
The movies were worth going to see, but I never saw them out of the theater. But I’ve read each book 4 or 5 times.

Team Jacob or Team Edward?
Team Jacob.

AWESOME. How do you feel about the Twilight series in general?
I loved all four of the books,and have read them all at least 4 times. I didn’t care much for the first movie, the second was ok, I liked the third one, and I have yet to see 4 part 1.

What do you think about the current state of the world?
I think it’s very sad what is going on right now. I am so thankful that I have a job in this economy and I hope that things pick back up soon. People should not be losing their jobs while others get hefty bonuses. But I am proud of the protests. Though some bad comes from them, they are ultimately a sign that people will not stand by and let their lives be destroyed.

What is your favorite kind of weather? Why?
My favorite weather is overcast. It puts a different light on everything and it feels like Christmas no matter the time of year (well as long as slightly cooler weather accompanies the clouds). It also reminds me of Seattle. Also, I feel as if I am in a different world or at least somewhere other than the desert.

You lived in Seattle for a while, how was that?
It was an amazing experience. I am very thankful that my aunt and uncle took me in for the summer so I could intern at Costco’s corporate office. I learned a lot about the corporate world that summer. It was the first time I had a normal Monday to Friday schedule and I spent the weekends wandering downtown Seattle. I miss the northwest a lot and I wouldn’t turn down a chance to live up there again.

Last question… it’s very important… what is your favorite Pixar movie?
It’s hard to say because Pixar has so many great films. I will have to say it’s a toss up between Wall-E and Up. They both made me cry and laugh and I believe they are must-see movies.

Aaaaaaand here’s a video she really likes:

Good choice, Dani. Good choice!
