Is your choice of screen name based on the name of a cocktail drink?
What are the highest and lowest temperatures you have experienced? Where were you and what were you doing?
If you had to choose to go without one, which would it be: not being able to talk for a week, or not being able to shower for one week?
I like bacon. Do you? Describe your perfect strip of bacon.
Boner will ask you questions about bananas; are you ready for that?
If the color Green and the color Blue fought, which would win?
Wow! That is extremely unexpected... I guess I am game. Whatcha wanna know?
Is your choice of screen name based on the name of a cocktail drink? My name is a twist on the Vieux Carré which is French for the French Quarter. I played roller derby for 5 years and that was my skater name.
What are the highest and lowest temperatures you have experienced? Where were you and what were you doing? Being for New Orleans our highs are HIGH. Humidity and the heat has never bothered me so I am not sure how to answer the hot part. I did go to Vegas in May once, and it was SO dry that I felt like I was a fish out of water, but the heat didn't bother me. The lowest was in Dallas for Christmas time at my sisters one year. I had never seen 'real' snow. Only 2" New Orleans dirty brown yucky snow. I am really not a fan of the cold, and it was like 20 degrees and we decide to go see Les Miserables on Christmas Eve. When we got out of the show it was snowing. Like SNOWING. I had to drive in that shit! It was the worst. It snowed all night and all the next day. There was like 2 feet of snow on the ground. Very pretty, super cold. I am not cut out for that type of weather.
If you had to choose to go without one, which would it be: not being able to talk for a week, or not being able to shower for one week? I can't not talk and I have a loud voice. I am pretty much a big mouth. Not showering...no bigs. I'm a dirty girl, what can I say?
I like bacon. Do you? Describe your perfect strip of bacon. OMG I LOVE BACON! It is one of my favorite foods. Everyone that is close to me knows that. My boss got me a bacon breakfast sandwich yesterday (everyone else got sausage) because of my love of bacon. The perfect strip of bacon would be not overly cooked, but the whole piece would be nice and crisp.
Boner will ask you questions about bananas; are you ready for that? The real question is, is he ready for my answers?
If the color Green and the color Blue fought, which would win? I think Blue would win, because without blue, green wouldn't even exist.
Have you ever stood on the edge of a cliff or tall building and suddenly become overwhelmed with how the power of your life is in your hands? If so what do you make of this?

I was also going to ask about the screen name. What does it mean, if anything. I presume some/all of it is French. Its a bastardization of Vieux Carré, which is the French Quarter. I wanted a cool New Orleans derby name. At the time I joined the Big Easy Rollergirls I worked for a media company. We ran a contest to pick my name. I got to pick my favorite and Vieux Careen was the winner. Funny thing is, I actually knew the winner and it looked like I rigged the contest. Truth is he had the best name.
Do you know much French? Or anything else? I know very little New Orleans bastardized french. Very little Spanish. I am actually half Italian/Puerto Rican, but my mom hated her accent so much that she let the language die. Supposedly I could speak it fluently when I was a child because I would spend the summers with my grandparents and the would only speak to us in Spanish.
If you were put on a flight to Boston about six weeks ago, with 15 degree highs and snow banks as tall as you - how would you react? I would freak the fuck out. Luckily, I have friends and family there, so I would be able to hid out inside and see people I love. I love Boston and have considered moving there, but that weather.... LORDY!
How did you originally find out about Bonnaroo? I have actually been wanting to go for over 10 years now. I have always been an avid concert/festival goer and kept up with new music and shows. I was tracking a couple of bands, and they got announced at Bonnaroo. Ever since then I have been watching, and trying to get my ass there.
According to your sig, this will be your first Bonnaroo this year. What are you expecting from it, different than other festivals? This will also be my first camping festival. I have gone to a bunch of festivals and I have camped, but I have never camped at a festival. I don't know what I am really expecting...I am expecting to go to the brunch, see lots of music, camp in the heat and have a great time I guess.
Do you watch sports? I watch the Saints and roller derby. I like to go to the Pelican games, not so much watching basketball on TV. I used to watch football on the reg when I was younger, not as much now.
How many states have you been to before? Ummm a bunch. I did that map of where you have been before. I didn't put NY on it because I was like 5 and I only remember looking out a car window and seeing tall buildings and visiting my Great Aunt.
How many countries have you been to, outside the US? I have only been on cruises before, going to Mexico, Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Belize. I want to go to Europe, but I am not a good flyer and not sure I can handle being on a plane that long. I have only be on an airplane 9 times in my life.
What is the worst show/set you've ever seen? Candlebox in my 1993. I got free tickets to the show and really great seats. The lead singer was so fucked up that he couldn't remember the lyrics to the song, would stop playing in the middle it was awful. The plus side, this little know band opened for Candlebox. They had one hit song called 'She Don't Use Jelly,' you might have heard of them before. They totally made up for the shit-show that came on after them.
Have you ever stood on the edge of a cliff or tall building and suddenly become overwhelmed with how the power of your life is in your hands? If so what do you make of this? I have stood on the edge of a tall building before and jumped off it (with a bungee chord), rode in a hot air balloon above the desert, but I have never have the overwhelming thought of how the power of my life is in my hands. I have had that feeling that someone else has the power of my life in their hands when I was held up while bartending. That is a truly frightening thought, especially when it is factual.
Do small grammatical mistakes online bother you? Most don't because I am not a great speller and have an audio discrepancy that causes me to say words wrong. Stupid ones do, like their, they're, there. Or You're, Your and stuff like that.
What's your favorite thing about you? I like the fact that I know that I am a survivor. I have been through some REAL shit in my life, and I have come out of it stronger than I was before. I am true to me and don't care what others think about it. I don't think a lot of people really feel that way about themselves. Plus, I am a really great skater, I love that too.

I buy skim milk. I grew up on milk with ice cubes and don't like anything but skim and it is all my kid drinks. Why you judging me?

We drink skim but our 17 month old is at 2% (was on whole milk until a couple of months ago). Combined we go through 2-3 gallons a week.
