Was today typical?
Was today typical, as in filled with random, unrelated issues and problems that I was expected to solve?
Yes.
Was today typical in a “same shit, different day” kinda way? Not at all. My days never are. And that’s what I fucking love about my job.

I love the idea of, and the simplicity and beauty in, string theory.

How would you describe yourself to someone?
Third person description. Because i can.
She’s an intelligent, kind, and strong person. She is very forgiving, but can act with heartless, clinical precision if circumstances call for that. She’s quirky, nerdy, and obsessive about learning. She hates drama and small talk, generally keeping to herself. She’s an awesome listener, though, very compassionate. But if you get her going on something she’s interested in? Yeah, you’ll be discussing that, (as well as any random but related thing that comes up) for hours.

Some days, just vibing with yourself and throwing the to do list out the window is the best kinda medicine.

What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being?
Health – movement. Listening to my body. Resting when i need to instead of pushing until my body forces the issue. Grounding. hydration.
Wellbeing – writing. Listening to silence. Protect my peace and my energy. Letting go. Observation. Sunlight.

Our bodies generate electromagnetic fields. What is the impact of repeated MRI exposure? Or bathing ourselves constantly in wifi and cell signal? Or even having electricity in our homes and workplaces?

What’s the story behind your nickname?
Wow, this has the potential to be a long one. I have had quite a few nicknames over the years. But, we’ll just go with the most recent ones…
“Number Woman” – this was bestowed by a coworker due to not only my love of complex math, numbers and related theory (pi, phi, fibonacci, etc.) but my affinity for remembering random numbers. Years ago, when i first started at the company, this coworker walks in and says “11723 – make sure i remember that order number!” He went about his business, but was able to tell him a day or so later when he asked. i was dubbed “number woman” shortly thereafter.
“Siri” – my boss had an epiphany or something during a conversation one day, and started calling me Siri because he could ask what the weather is for the day, info he needed for work, or even random curious questions and i usually had the answer for him. Some of the staff picked it up too…
So, yeah, those are the stories behind my current nicknames.
