And Colorado.

I live in snow country, so I want something really reliable and durable, that doesn't get stuck in snowdrifts. Something with good visibility, AWD, and that's reasonably affordable. In other words, a Subaru.

Ecover toilet cleaner (it's organic). I'm very green-conscious. But sometimes I use bleach if it's really dirty.

I dyed my hair brown b/c I hated being blonde. People call you "a blonde" like you're some kind of object.

Not everyone has the same reaction to NSAIDs that I did. But it's good to get a complete blood count every so often to check how your organs are functioning. I take Tylenol and medical marijuana for pain. Tylenol can shut down your liver, so I'm crossing my fingers it doesn't.

It used to eat away at my stomach if I took it without food.

I can't take NSAIDs. They shut down my kidneys. I was lucky and they're working again now.

I used to find John Steinbeck boring. Now I LOVE his books and re-read them (except for Of Mice & Men, which I hate).

I've heard that people with BPD can be both depressed and manic at the same time.

I'm not a Brit, but it makes me sick how the media treats them (especially the British media!). Every time Will looks cross-eyed at Kate, they're having a huge fight and getting a divorce. And don't get me started on poor Harry and Meghan.

I think I made a vow when I was a little kid to always remember things the way they really were. It's been very annoying to my family. "No, he wasn't really a great guy, Dad. Remember when he....bla bla bla?" As for history, things weren't so great in the olden days, especially for women and...

My mother is 96 and she has very thick, healthy hair. It's genetic. I have thick hair too. It's gotten thinner with age, but it's still thick.

I'm probably more of an introvert. But I don't like labels. They tend to give people a false impression. I like to spend time alone b/c I get overwhelmed by people's energy. But I'm not shy at all. I will give people my opinion whether they ask for it or not. Sometimes quite loudly.

So have I, though usually with objects moving around. A friend of mine had a visit from a deceased relative. She could smell his cigar very strongly.
