Bipolar Questions #6

I've really done well in getting my diabetes under control. I'm particularly proud of that. All diet control really.

I think that's a question deserving asking twice.

We DO focus heavily on illness, let's focus on wellness. How are you particularly healthy or what do you do to maintain your health?

I try to eat fairly healthily and I (mostly) do a lot of aerobic exercise, I guess.

Do you like animated movies?

Ones like Coraline, Corpse Bride etc, yes. Kid-oriented, no indeed.

Have you ever (or currently) been vegetarian?

Vegan, yes. I am about 90% vegan or so. But I like ice cream, so...

Have you ever surfed?

I have surfed - having grown up on a large, well-known body of water which I now miss dearly

Have you ever gone to a strange place on vacation (by strange I mean someplace most people wouldn't think to vacation at)

Went to Bangkok in the summer one year. That wasn't very smart.

Where do you get your news?

Usually the Apple news.

Have you ever committed a crime?

Yes- I was arrested for trespassing when I was 18 - LOL. I was so stupid and the charge was so stupid - it was a $100 fine

Did you enjoy going to school as a child?

when I wasn't in hospital, I suppose it was okay. I didn't " love" it, and I didn't " hate" it. I liked history and geography, I hated science and math. their was good and bad bits.

I didn't like school dinners though: now they were gross.

what is one thing that you miss from childhood?

My parents.

Do you like candy corn?

no.
are you a thrillseeker?, or do you prefer your life more relaxed

opposite of a thrillseeker, whatever that is...

Favorite kind of bread?

garlic naan. I love it.

are you the same online as you are in person? (example I'm intriverted in person, not so much online)

Granary

Favourite 80’s band?

Depeche Mode

Favorite dessert?

Crème brûlée (my recipe).

Q: Are you or have you been quite competitive?

Yes, are you territorial?

I am such a sore loser when it comes to board games. if I see I'm losing I'll have a right tantrum about it. I'll still play to the end, but that person is not in my good books if they beat me

I'm worse for it at monopoly. I'm not a good monopoly player, still: I lose and you all know about it

yes sometimes

that said: I am not as bad as some people I know.

do you still celebrate birthdays, or do they mean nothing to you really

Minor celebrations like dinner or a small gift yes.

Favorite non dairy “milk”?

Coconut milk. I'm sorry, but I truly dislike those milk substitutes. Coconut milk is a different kind of animal, though. Great in Thai or Indian food. But if I had to choose one of those others, I'd say "cashew milk", but not consumed straight. I'm referring to it being used as part of a lactose free ice cream.

Q: What was the last country's cuisine that you ate for the very first time?

Salvadoran.....what song is most likely to become stuck in your head?

Probably Gerry Rafferty's Right Down the Line or something along the likes.

Have you ever tried alligator?

I honestly can’t remember, I wanted to at the state fair but either it was really meh or I didn’t have it for some reason. Too much food in one place, lol.

Favorite type of sushi

Sushi and I have a rule. I will try every type of sushi. My favorite so far is unagi, which is eel. But I love anything spicy.

What is the most elaborate (your definition) food that you have ever tried?
