**MORE INFO ABOUT ME, PERSONALLY**

A few things you should probably know if you are considering taking me on as your RP pupil.
--> I do most of my internet on my phone. I live in an extremely rural area that is primarily retirees who aren't computer savvy. Because of that, the likelyhood of us EVER getting high speed internet is extremely slim. My phone is only a 3G, and due to my location, it often drops down to a "1x" or drops my internet altogether. This can be very frustrating for both me and anyone with whom I am conversing.
--> I have severe Fibromyalgia. In case you are not familiar with the illness, it is a pain and fatigue based illness (but there's a full menu of different symptoms that one may experience with the disease, and I hit the jackpot- I've got most of the symptoms). This means 2 things: 1. I am on many medications, which means I am "out of it" on a regular basis. Since I am using my phone for internet, I am able to be online whilst stuck in bed (*YaY!*). But, it also means that I can go days at a time without going online because I simply hurt too badly to sit and thumb type my posts, or I'm simply too exhausted to do it. What may be a simple, everyday task for most people can be extremely taxing on me. TRANSLATION: I'm not the most reliable when it comes to sticking to a schedule.
--> I have a rare form of arthrits called Sjögren's Syndrome (on top of the Fibromyalgia). A few things about this. The reoccurring thing is that I take an oral chemotherapy drug (Methotrexate) one day a week that makes me sick (nausea) for anywhere from 1.5 days to 3 days a week. I take medication to help with the nausea, but it makes me sleep. I try to stay on a schedule of taking my Methotrexate on Sunday nights so that I know what days I am most likely to be "off" (usually all day Monday through Tues evening- but it sometimes lasts through Weds night). The unpredictable thing is that the arthritis, which is in most of my joints, can keep me from being able to type, thus keeping me offline. This doesn't happen often- but it is a possibility to keep in mind.
--> I have six cats, one of whom is terminally ill (see posts above). My cats always take precedence over internet time. TRANSLATION: My cats come first. When my ill cat, Sassy, passes away (according to the vet, it could be any day now), I am not sure how I will react. I may stay offline for several days, or I may completely immerse myself in the RP to dull the pain.

I'm telling you this all up front so that you know what to expect if you decide to take me on as a pupil. I just thought it was fair to warn you :3
