No.
Do you know anyone (close to you) who has substance abuse problems?

yes.

same q.

Yes, I have known many in my lifetime. My mother is currently addicted to pharmaceuticals and opioids (and struggled with binge drinking when I was a teen), and it is very difficult to even be around her these days. My biological father was a drug addict, and my stepfather was an awful drunk (he also died from alcohol-related complications). Several of my close friends throughout my teenage and adult years have also had substance abuse problems. The majority never broke from their addictions, so I have had to cut them out of my life. I guess I have to mention that I struggled with binge drinking in the past, and I have been sober for 4 years 3 months.

Same question.

Not anyone all that close to me, no.

Did you buy Disney+?

don't know what disney+ is.

have you ever had beer-infused ice cream?

No because I cannot consume alcohol.

Do you like playing badminton, table tennis, or regular tennis?

never had the quick reflexes required for that.

ever swim a mile's worth of laps in an olympic [or fractional olympic] type lap swim pool?

I can't swim.

Same question.

hadda learn how as an adult, took me 3 months! it was for back therapy after an injury. since then, i swam most evenings after work, about 33 laps or a mile's worth, of alternating crawl stroke and back stroke. yep, i useta be fit as a fiddle. since then, i haven't lived near a pool in over a decade.

choose one-

Ravioli!

Same question.

choose one-
spaghetti and meatballs
or

Spaghetti and meatballs!

Does anyone in your family struggle to maintain a healthy weight?

moi.

same q.

Yes, the majority of my family members struggle.
I have to be aware of what I eat, but I wouldn't say that I struggle. I'm in the lower end of the healthy weight range I think? When I was a binge drinker, I gained quite a lot of weight, however.

Would you prefer the temperature outside be 100F/37.7C or 5F/-15C?

100F/37.7C because i suppose it's less bad for the animals outside.
if i have to choose between them inside though, i'd go for 5F/-15C.

is there anything you're wondering about and haven't been able to find a satisfactory answer to, which makes you very uncomfortable? if so, what's the question (if you feel comfortable sharing)?

Yes, if I'll manage to pay off a certain debt successfully.


Is it difficulty for you to find serenity within your own life?
