Interests meme

For the interests meme, [personal profile] jesse_the_k picked these:

1. infectious diseases

An old interest of mine that I thought was going to be my career, and which I studied in school. If that life path had happened, I'd no doubt be super busy right now. I still find them fascinating to learn about. Diseases of particular interest to me were prion diseases, such as "mad cow" disease; rabies (a virus); botulism and tetanus (bacterial diseases that release toxins). A very good book about prions, written for popular audiences, is "The Family that Couldn't Sleep".

2. empowerment

I don't know what prompted me to put this on my list of interests, but I'm into it. Going to WisCon and Think Galacticon really helped me feel empowered to speak up and assert myself.

3. walking

...has long been my main and only form of exercise. I find it relaxing and a good way to get outside. These days I mostly walk at the dog park and enjoying talking to people there.
