My Life
If you'd like to know more a diagram of my life is shown below.
If you don't mind the symptoms I give, including, abdominal discomfort, nausea, diarrhea 💩, muscle pains, vomiting😖, fatigue, and fever then I know we'd be perfect together!

If you like warm places, then it was meant to be ❤️
My other roommates were trying to prevent me, And even KILL Me 😱 (Here's what they did).

-Do not eat meat at all

My living habits
If you help me thrive you can be my baby daddy 😏
