    (I am the Stranger Danger)
    Hi, I'm Willow. I'm 36, asexual, artistic, have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, am self under-employed, I think i'm funny and I use it as a defense. (I am turtling in my turtleneck RIGHT NOW) I try to be polite and kind and try to see both sides, which mostly leaves me full of indecision.
    I'm kind of afraid of everything. It feels like I am but I do things anyway. Mostly.
    Uhm. I like Sports anime/manga filled with friendship and healthy competition, I like love stories where everything is just kind of .. nice. I like Steven universe, Gravity Falls, Adventure time- even though I'm not caught up. I like comics super heroes and science fiction and fantasy about people and fleece and embroidery. I like drawing, and color and skittles. I lose my hair brush a lot and wear pigtails and smock-dresses and boots. I live on the side of a mountain with my mother and sister and brother. I like myself even though I can't shake the feeling that I'm kind of worthless, which is stupid because I'm really very useful, and that's worth.
    I get cold easy.
    I like making people happy- and I like helping people understand eachother. I spend a lot of time trying to understand people I think so they'll seem less scary.

    I cry a lot. A whole lot. I'm tired all the time and hurt a lot. I have a lot of trouble making friends. I have a lot of trouble talking about my problems, of which there are many, because I don't want to distress anyone, which is kind of why I'm here, but going someplace where I don't have friends so I can't distress them with my problems, but wanting to make friends seems kind of counter intuitive now that I think about it
    but I'm going to post this before I think better of it.
    So.
    hi

    My local ocean state joblots had these GREAT wool-blend socks, and my feet have been much warmer this winter. Right now I've got two blankets and a heating pad so I'm pretty warm. Untill I move, i'm sure.

    Right now I really like Haikyuu! and I really liked the first season of Free! (I haven't gotten to watching the second season) there was this manga I was following for a while that was basically a sports manga only it was about spanish dancing, but I lost the name. I enjoy most of the ones I read, but have a bad habit of losing track of them. Oh I enjoyed Bamboo Blade which was a sports manga abouta girls kendo team. that was good.

    I really enjoyHaikyuu because they're just so damn happy. They're enjoying themselves, and yeah, there's like drive, and competitiveness, but you can't really hate their opponents, even though you want their team to win. It's like... adventure without villans.

    yes, haikyuu is great! i think i've read bamboo blade but it was a zillion years ago or something, so i might read it again. have you ever read eyeshield 21? i used to be really into it and i don't remember if i finished it but it's probably one of the only football related things i actually like - the characters are really interesting and in the later chapters they just get so excited about working together and friendships and ahhhhhh it's just really fun.

    I read it while it was in shonen jump, and enjoyed it while I did. But I don't think I finished it.
