Thank you @felicity for tagging me.
-1 Height? 5ft 8inch
-2 do you smoke? No, I never have. Both my parents used to smoke and I didn't like it then. And now I'm very allergic to smoke.
-4 do you drink? Not much any more. I used to drink a lot, learned it while Karen was going through her PhD program, but now more than a few drinks and I get sleepy and don't feel well. Instead I drink a lot of water.
-5 age you get mistaken for? Usually mid 40's, I'm 54
-6 any tattoos? No. My skin does not take well to any injury and any tattooing would be an injury to the skin resulting in...extreme reactions.
-7 any piercings? Just one ear
-8 best friend? Karen! I tell her everything. I wish I had grown up with people that I could have been friends with now, but we moved around a lot (Dad was in the Navy) and by the time we settled in one place, I had no idea how to maintain long term relationships. I didn't learn that skill until I joined SG and started making real life friends here.
-9 a fact about your personality: Hmm, maybe that I seem very pessimistic. And probably I am. I feel more that I am a realist, but it just comes out wrong. I think secretly I keep hoping that I am wrong about things and that I am just preparing for the worst and hoping for the best.
-10 what career did you choose when you were a child? At first I thought about entering the Navy to follow my father, but then I just decided on a business career. I got a business degree and never used it. I never like the type of people that thrived there and never liked the jobs that I got. I found my real career later in IT and helping people with their computers.
Well, now you know a little more about me. I'm going to be lazy and not specifically recommend anyone to do this, though anyone who does, I would love to see your answers.
I'm exhausted. Two weeks of bad dreams at night are starting to take a real toll on me. I don't like going to bed, because I know I'll just have torturous dreams. I need a break from this. And now I'm starting to wake Karen up with my thrashing about, and she then wakes me up to break me out from my dreams. My brain is a mess. I wish it would just understand everything sucks and there is nothing we can do about it so stop trying to work it out. Just relax!
I hope you are all getting better rest than me. Much love and happiness to you all. Hugs! **MWAH**
