My True Name is Margaret. A new manager in my workplace couldn't stop accidentally calling me Bridget for a while, which I thought was hilarious-- most people who have just met me and forgotten my name will go for another M name, usually Megan, but he just picked a different Old Lady Name.
As a toddler, I once ate a jumbo orange crayon and pooped orange for two days; my mother will never let me forget this fact. As a child I never believed in Santa but was fairly convinced I might be able figure out how to either float with umbrellas or slow my descent from jumps by kicking my legs like Luigi, who I had a crush on at the age of 7. If you combine my western zodiac sign with my eastern zodiac sign, I'm two sheep.
In public school I was immediately labeled a "gifted" student, which if you are in the know mostly just means I now have a severe anxiety disorder. I also have on-and-off depression (mostly seasonal) and ADHD. My body also collects chronic ailments and pains with the same enthusiasm a child in a park might collect fallen pine cones. In short, I am disabled, but I feel weird using the word.
I've always drawn, but I didn't get serious until I was 12 and just discovering that fan art was a thing people did and that there was a word (anime) for the specific kind of animation I was becoming very interested in. I took some figure drawing classes in community college; that's the greatest extent of my formal training. I like art as a mildly profitable hobby and not a job. My other hobbies include cooking, baking, figurine collecting, tabletop/board games, and embroidery.
I am currently living with my boyfriend, a cool roommate, two hamsters, and a chaotic neutral entity that demands to watch me shower so she can lick the water off my feet when I get out.
