15 questions for 15 mutuals!
Thank you for the tag @themaraudershavethephonebox 🥰
1. Are you named after anyone? This story is going to tell you everything you need to know about my parents: my maiden name is Scottish and begins 'Mc' - my parents couldn't think of anything to go with it until Die Hard randomly came on the TV and they decided that 'Holly McClane' had a ring to it, and that's how I was named Holly.
2. When was the last time I cried? Two weeks ago my husband and I had a fight, and I, as an only child, obviously can't handle conflict and started crying in the car lol
3. Do you have kids? No, I'm a grown woman who cries in the car
4. Do you use sarcasm a lot? Me? No, never
5. What sports do you play/have you played? I was never into team sports. I swam as a kid and I did ballet and tap dance into my mid-teens! Now, most of my exercise is in the form of dog walking
6. What's the first thing you notice about other people? Hair - you can tell a lot about a person's vibe from their hair imo
7. Scary movies or happy endings? Scary movies with happy endings! My favourite film franchise is scream (current terrible decisions not included)
8. Any special talents? I'm a qualified lifeguard, so I can save your life, if required, does that count?
9. Where were you born? Yorkshire, England
10. What are your hobbies? Writing (obviously), I'm also trying to learn embroidery but I'm bad at it lol
11. Do you have any pets? 3 dogs & a cat
12. All time favourite piece of media? The Haunting of Hill House - it's a masterpiece from start to finish
13. Fave subject in school? I have a degree in history, hands down my favourite!
14. Dream job? Literally everyone tells me to quit my job and become a travel agent/planner. I love planning trips, if you tell me you want to go on holiday, I will drop everything to find you the best deals and make you an itinerary. Sadly, my current job pays better 🥲
15. Eye colour? - Brown, which I hated as a kid but if it's good enough for Ginny Weasley, it's good enough for me 😂

I'm decreeing that nobody is allowed to talk about weight loss or fat positivity or anything related to it unless you first clarify what you think "fat" means. If I have to go through one more conversation with someone who is "super pro-fat-acceptance! I'm fat and I love my body! Being fat can't cause health problems and I'm proof!" and then I find out that they're 15 pounds overweight I will not be held responsible for my actions
Although that is still better than the alternative, which is someone assuring me that weight loss isn't that hard, they got fat over the pandemic but they stopped eating fast food and started working out and they were back to their normal weight in a couple of months! Those doctors tried convincing them that they needed 'medicine' or 'surgery' but they did it all by themselves, and I can too if I just use a little willpower! And then you find out they were never more than 15 pounds overweight (and for SURE no doctor actually recommended weight loss surgery to them)
