Hi, I’m Orange.  And no, it’s not because I’m orange in color.  Okay, maybe it is, but that’s beside the point. 

I don’t know why you would want to interview me,  since I’m not that insteresting.

Ok, fine.  Let’s see … I’ve known my mom, Liz, for basically my entire life.  I’m around seven, so that adds up to  a solid chunk of time. 

Unfortunately, I don’t live at Elizabethtown and most likely never will.  No, it’s not that I’ve heard bad things, I just love the apartment that I’m in right now.  I have a nice balcony where I can sunbathe the summer.  Obviously not these days;  it’s been raining every other hour. Besides, I am not one to downsize, and yes, that includes the Quads.

When my mom does come home, I make sure I spend the majority of the time with her.  If it’s during the weekend, I’ll cuddle with her until I’m tired of it.  I’m usually beside my mom or laying on top of her.  At night, I share her pillow and her bed.  If my mom claims that I hog the bed, she’s lying.  It’s not my fault that you take up the majority of the bed and you don’t wanna crush me, so stop blaming me for you falling off the bed. 

Also, if my mom’s trying to do her homework, I’ll still make sure I’m getting the attention I deserve by attacking her pens and laying on her paperwork.  If she has her laptop out, I always add my own personal edits to her papers.  I don’t know why she keeps deleting them.  I thought they added a good flair to her work.

Let’s see … what else is there to talk about … Oh, I do have a weird quirk.  I love to drink out of the bathtub.  I personally think it’s my own little waterfall that is controlled by my mom.  I follow my mom in there all the time and immediately hop into the tub, waiting for the waterfall to turn on.  Oh, and it has to be the perfect pressure.  I don’t want drips, because that’s clearly not a waterfall, nor can I drink from it.  If the pressure is too much, I get soaked, and no one likes to get soaked.  My mom literally had to put a mark on the wall so that she knew exactly where to turn the knob so that I can get my waterfall.

Another form of entertainment I like is when my mom plays video games.  I’ll go up to the screen and try to swipe the characters off.  However, I get pretty tired of it quickly, since it doesn’t work all the time.  I much prefer to snuggle and take a nap instead.

I definitely miss my mom sometimes, especially when there’s no one to cuddle with besides her father.  I just wish it was spring break already so I could cuddle with her all the time. 

I know she’s doing her best wrapping up her junior year, even if it is without my edits.  Maybe over the break I can help her with edits to the Etownian, since she is the Chief Copy Editor.  Or I can add some more contributions to HerCampus.  Hmmmm … now all I have to do is get my mom’s laptop …
