I literally do not remember. My parents had tropical fish when I was a kid. And I think I started out with a Betta in a very nice Eclipse tank that made almost no noise. At the moment, I am fish-less, and have not yet got up the energy to clean the tanks and start over. I kind of want a large tank with a lot of small fish, but the work involved is daunting.
2. Is there an SF con that you've never been to that you'd like to check out?
Tons, actually. Boskone and Eastercon come immediately to mind. If Jo continues to run Scintillation, I'd really like to do that, too.
3. What gets your vote for most underrated SF novel of the last 10 years?
This assumes that I am far better read than I actually am, I think. Especially in the last two years, I've read very little, as Trump has eaten my fiction brain. I think that Seanan McGuire's Toby Day books are undervalued. They are popular, but tend to be seen as covered in girl-cooties. Which, yes, but in an incredibly good way. I think that Walton's Thessaly Triology was amazing, but I'm not sure it's underrated.
4. What's your favorite card game?
When I have brains, bridge. When I don't, Czar.
5. What's your favorite international cuisine?
Thai. Closely followed by Indian.
