cosmolinguistI'm not sure I'll write something every day this year, but zhelena is starting a question-answering meme with one for each day of the year, and I might give it a try. Today's:
Jan 1 What is one thing you’d like to accomplish in 2020?
I think of "getting a decent job as soon as possible after I graduate" as something I need to do rather than something I'd like to do (also it's both boring and unbelievbly stressful an idea, so not a fun answer), so...
I'd like to go on an actual damn holiday, bonus points for it being longer than a weekend because weekends are all I've managed since...whenever it was we went on the canal boat holiday, and how many years ago was that now?!
2 What would be the first sentence of your autobiography?
3 For every day of 2020, you will be required to wear a t-shirt with the same one word on it. What word will you choose?
4 What one thing are you looking forward to in 2020?
5 What’s your favorite way to spend a Sunday morning?
6 Tell about an “Aha!” moment you’ve had.
7 In the U.S., each state has a “state flower.” If you’re in the U.S., what is your state flower? If you live elsewhere, does your region or country have flower that represents it? (Post a picture?)
8 Would you rather live in a deep-sea station or a space station?
9 What’s your favorite “comfort food” when you’re feeling down or unwell?
10 What was the last film you saw at a theatre/cinema?
11 Have you ever been asked for your telephone number and you didn't want to give it? What did you do?
12 Have you ever had a “crush” on a fictional character?
13 What are your favorite pizza toppings?
14 Who was your very first best friend? Are you still in contact or communication with them?
15 If you could pick a new first name, what would you choose?
16 What is your favorite board game?
17 What self-care things do you find helpful to ground yourself or “talk yourself down from the ledge” when you’re overwhelmed by your feelings or by stress?
18 What is the most extreme weather you have ever experienced?
19 Do you operate out of any particular faith system that informs your actions? Do you intentionally NOT have a faith system, and if so, what beliefs or ideas inform your actions?
20 When you go to a fancy coffee shop, what’s your go-to order?
21 What genre of books is your usual favorite when you read for pleasure?
22 Where is one place you wouldn’t ever want to be caught dead?
23 How would someone who genuinely likes and admires you describe you?
24 How would someone who doesn’t really like you describe you?
25 If you had to teach a one-hour class with absolutely no prep time, what subject could you competently pull off?
26 What is the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you while out for a meal at a restaurant?
27 What aphorism or saying is helpful for you right now?
28 What’s your favorite meme? (Post it!)
29 What is your skin care regimen?
30 What song are you listening to a lot right now? (Post a link?)
31 What superpower best suits your personality?
Otherwise, today was eaten up by mentalism but the evening was nice.diffrentcolours and mother_bones invited all of my little polycule around to watch Doctor Who, but both Andrew and Stuart were poorly so it was just me. We enjoyed it, and I can't wait for Sunday. (If the other boys can make it, we might do a double-bill of this episode before that one starts.)
I nearly fell asleep ondiffrentcolours, snuggled up on the sofa. The neighbors' cat came to play and have treats, as he is prone to doing. We had amazing food cooked by their lodger, who wanted to share to celebrate the new year. It was very sweet that she made sure I was hanging around long enough to have dessert.
It was such a cozy time. I needed that.
