Question of the Week #300
What could someone figure out about you by the friends you've chosen? That I like to keep to myself... Okay, not really. I mean, yes, it's true that I'm an introvert and I tend to keep to myself.

Question of the Week #266
If you knew it would completely estrange you from your friends and family, would you follow your heart and marry a person you loved? Yes. I mean... if friends and family are rightly warning me that the person I love is also secretly a super-villain bent on global destruction and/or domination, I would hope I … Continue reading Question of the Week #266
