On a scale of 1 to 10 would those close to you call you a serious person? Do u agree?
Yes and yes. I’m pretty intense, at least inwardly. I can be very silly, but I rarely open up like that anymore.

The weather was actually pretty nice today. How was the weather where you were at today?
The weather is gorgeous today!!! I opened all windows and my door to let the air circulate throughout. I cleaned and worked on my computer and munched on salad and brownie bites from Whole Foods. I think it’s supposed to rain tomorrow, so I’m enjoying this while I can.

PAP of you with no make up and no filters
Hi, I never use filters and I rarely wear makeup, so it’s not like this is anything surprising. 🤷🏼♀️ Carry on...

Olhando sua janela o que vê?
I see an adjacent apartment building and a few pine trees. Not the best view, but could be worse.
So sweet of you

If you couldn’t be convicted of any one type of crime, what criminal charge would you like to be immune to?
I’m not a thug, Linda. I don’t avoid committing crimes because I’ll get in trouble, I don’t commit them because I’m not a shitty human.

Do you usually use Wikipedia?
Sometimes I already know things. Sometimes I Google. Wikipedia is a great resource when valid references are cited. I am aware of its limitations, however, so I’m careful. I will say Wiki was instrumental in saving me years ago. Had I not learned there that my condition is a form of muscular dystrophy, I would have never sought help at MDA, and therefore would have never met my former kidney doctor who initiated my current medication regimen. So while the site has its limits, I am damn grateful someone wrote an article about Periodic Paralysis in the Muscular Dystrophy section on Wikipedia.

When you enter a room what's the 1st thing you notice?
Very much depends on the room :) But I tend to look at the floor when I’m walking.

Have you ever used Icy Hot before? Do you like it or no or have you never used it? They also have a spray. 👍👍
Not that brand, but a similar one. Biofreeze.
You like your name? :)
Yeah it’s fine. I don’t love the spelling, but it means “Bold warrior; the people’s victory” and that’s pretty darn cool. 💪🏼

Whats your opinon about people who are highly toxic??
Toxic is mostly subjective. In other words, for the most part, what people believe is toxic varies based on their own standards and life choices.
For me, my opinion depends on what defines someone as toxic. Some people turn out to be as bad as they seem, whereas others are simply misguided or struggling. So it’s subjective, and my opinion will vary. Regardless, I am allowed to protect myself from the effects of people who are negatively impacting my quality of life. One of my biggest grievances is that, according to studies, we are most influenced by the five people we spend the most time with. If that is true, and it definitely seems to be, I have a lot of regrets. My goal in middle adulthood is to be around people who are right for me and lose the ones who aren’t so that my efforts to learn, grow, and be a better human are not sabotaged (by them or myself).
Nobody’s solid and set in stone. We are human, and therefore affected by the humans we do life with. Since that is our reality, we are entitled to judge.

Have you ever tried making pottery on a potter's wheel?
What incredible timing. I was looking at a tiny wheel this morning, but didn’t buy it. I’m dying to learn pottery, and someday I will. ✌🏼
Do you love omelette?🍳? what do you usually put on it?🍳 how often do you have it?😀
I make a lot of quiche (see pic) but I do like omelets as well. It’s gotta have cheese! Everything else is negotiable.
What is the unforgivable mistake to you?
Let’s talk about bad decisions instead. In general? Committing violence or other crime. In a relationship? That, and plenty of other things. Cheating. Threats. Fraud. Willfully putting me in danger. Disregarding my bodily autonomy. Any facet of abuse.
Those things are not really mistakes, like “oops it was an accident” sort of thing. People need to acknowledge the difference between a mistake and a bad decision. Mistakes can be redeemed, for the most part. I grew up with no common sense and made mistakes in judgment. Through education and understanding, I made changes to correct those mistakes. Irresponsible choices don’t normally have an eraser or a rewind button, and therefore the consequences must be faced. Sometimes the consequence is losing the person or people affected by that choice.
