thanks for the tag, @themareverine!!! this looks like fun! 😊
do you make your own bed? erm...sometimes? usually when I've just washed the sheets, or if I know I'm having company later. otherwise I just kind of leave it as is, and tumble back in at night.
favorite number? so I don't really have one that comes to mind? if I absolutely had to pick one, maybe...24? there's something nice, and even, and pretty about that number to me right now.
what's your job? quality assurance analyst for pharmacy software. it's entirely new, and I'm learning a lot, and I can occasionally "nerd-out" and let my inner pharmacist out to play when we're testing certain parts of the software 😂.
if you could go back to school, would you? probably, if I had the money (I don't). as nerdy as it sounds, I love learning, and it would be a sure-fire way to get my hermit-like-self out of the house once in a while.
can you parallel park? well, I could when I took and passed the driver's education exam to get my license but that was years ago. could I do it now? probably not without a lot of adjustments.
do you think aliens are real? it certainly wouldn't surprise me. the universe is entirely too big for me to just believe that we're the only ones out here spinning around.
can you drive a manual car? definitely not (never tried/never had the opportunity). though I might be able to pick it up after some (read: a lot) of practice.
what's your guilty pleasure? so I kind of hate to call it 'guilty' in the truest sense of the word, since that implies some aspect of shame in it. but, that said, I can remember back when I first started writing fanfiction, when I was keeping it something of a secret for fear of judgment. it took a while for me to realize I didn't have to be ashamed of it just because my parents always used to criticize me for having an over-active imagination.
any phobias? spiders. any and all kinds. keep them far away from me, and if you're with me and I see one, you may be recruited to get rid of it while I go hide in another room as far away as possible.
favorite childhood sport? does dance count? if so, it's absolutely dance (I was involved in tap, jazz, and ballet from about 5 years to 16 years). if dance doesn't count, it should, but in the case that it doesn't, I choose hockey. not playing it, because I can't skate worth anything, but watching it was something I always enjoyed with my Dad.
do you talk to yourself? oh absolutely. though admittedly my words to myself are not often kind (in this house, we vacillate between self-deprecation and out and out hostility 😅. it's a (very long) work in progress to speak more positively, for sure).
tattoos? none, yet. though I've been debating getting one off and on for a while, now. my lack of considerable pain tolerance (and the risk of infection, having spent the majority of the last year immunocompromised) keep holding me back.
favorite color? turquoise. without a doubt.
do you like puzzles? not particularly? anything with the tendency to be tedious sometimes sets my teeth on edge/makes me...squicky? so I only do them very, very rarely.
