What is your job title/what do you do? I am a "Document Collection Processor" for a mortgage company. Basically when we receive loans/properties from other companies they are supposed to provide us with everything needed for that file (ie, recorded mortgage, title insurance policy, signed HUD, etc) but a lot of times the previous company doesn't send everything needed, so it's my job to track down these missing documents to complete the loan package.
Favorite flavor of ice cream? Pistachio
If money/COL weren't an issue what city in your nation (US/Canada) would you love to live in? What about dream city in the world? I'm actually 110% happy with the city we live in now. I really have no desire to ever live anywhere else...how boring, I know lol.
First movie you saw in a theater? I have no idea...Little Mermaid maybe?
What's your middle name? Marie
What is your job title/what do you do? Mechanical Engineer. At my firm, mechanical here design HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioing) systems...so essentially taking a space, knowing the temperature set points for the thermostat, deciding how big of an air handling unit (heats and cools the air) we need and figuring out the ductwork for the space and how to get the "used" air out of the space for fresh air to come in.
DH thinks I'm a huge dork b/c when we're on the El/train, I'll look at rooftops and point out different types of HVAC equipment and manufacturers. Or when we go to places with exposed ductwork, I'm try to explain to him why the duct gets smaller and smaller or comment how big the ductwork is. It's little things like this that surprise me that I take interest in them, but also confirm to me that I really do find my job interesting!
Favorite flavor of ice cream? Green (it's a must) Mint Chocolate Chip
If money/COL weren't an issue what city in your nation (US/Canada) would you love to live in? What about dream city in the world? US: probably NYC. I love the hustle and bustle but it's even more expensive than Chicago

First movie you saw in a theater? 101 Dalmations...although I vaguely remember. The first movie experience I do remember having is A League of Their Own with my mom. I don't know why, but I was so upset the sisters split up that I was still crying about it when we left the theater. Lol

If money/COL weren't an issue what city in your nation (US/Canada) would you love to live in? What about dream city in the world?
I love Boston, but I think I'd move to DC in a heartbeat. And though neither of us have been there, Alan and I both think we'd like Seattle/Portland or San Francisco. Internationally, it'd be Paris - we were totally scoping out neighborhoods when we were there on our honeymoon. Haven't been to London, but I think we'd like it there, too. (Clearly, we are city folk.)
First movie you saw in a theater?
The Fox and the Hound, I think. According to the release date, I was 6, but I would have sworn I'd gone to the movies younger than that. If so, it was probably the Muppet Movie, since that came out in '79.
