Haven't read Moll Flanders but if you think she deserves to die she probably does.

How many dictionaries do you own?

I have the OED, the Cambridge Academic, and a paperback Webster's.


How bad is your Tinnitus right now, 1-10?

8.925

Have you ever been in a car accident?

I think I'm also 8.925. Good call.


Yes, twice. The main one was when I got t-boned by an animal control truck and I guess I was in shock because I just kept asking about the animals. The second one I rear-ended someone at slow speed. It had something to do with a streetcar but I can't remember. ADHD whoops. Not bad for 40 years of driving though.

same q

I had a guy on a bicycle run into the back of my parked car.
He was apparently legally blind but he thought it was ok to ride a bicycle at speed because he could see shapes.
Apparently, he couldn't see the shape of a large, white car in front of him.

Another time, a guy backed into me while I was waiting in traffic.

And then an old lady went through a stop sign and tried to t-bone me. I managed to turn away a little and she opened up the side of my car like a can opener. She said the sun was in her eyes.

Never had an at fault accident to date.

Do you believe in global warming?

"An old lady tried to t-bone me".

I love you. lollll. ^ :heart:


I don't know anything about global warming but I assume it might be true?
Then again I have no clue so maybe it isn't.
I've never studied it much.

My brother reckons it's all a crock of s**t and there's a political agenda behind it.
He can show all this evidence of world temperatures heating and cooling.
I've personally witnessed my area of the world getting hotter in my lifetime, but human life and memories are short.
Who knows?

What would be your ideal respite weekend?

Christmas in Canada definitely got warmer in my lifetime there.
We used to snowmobile on our property.
I've seen the photos and videos.
It was always a white Christmas, no questions asked.
Starting in 1979 it was VERY rare to have snow.


Weekend - Hot stone massage, grey skies, lots of books, and glasses that work.

Would you go on a rocket if you were invited for free?

No.
I'd have trouble leaving Earth.

Would you?

No - I wouldn't like the small space and all the restrictions.


Would you go on a sub?

No, I don't think so.
You can't really see out, unless it's some kind of clear sub that doesn't also happen to implode like the Titanic sub.

how do you deal with clutter?

I have panic attacks about it.
Then when I get enough EF I micromanage it.
I'll hyperfocus on one drawer for a week or so lol.
Then the rest of it gets ignored again.

I try to take excess to the Op Shop.
I'm doing that today.

I love throwing stuff away too, if I get the energy.

I find it hard when it's other people's clutter.
Because I don't feel I can touch it without consulting the person who owns it first.
So I look at it and think I must get them to sort that out, then I forget, then I'm still looking at the same pile of clutter days, weeks, months, years later.
I have an overload of art/craft supplies with very little in the way of cupboards of storage, so that's a challenge as well.
Clutter makes me want to run away to Plum Village.

Have you ever or do you think you would like to visit a monastery like Plum Village?

I'd love to. ^

We should amalgamate our craft supplies.
I have sooo much, too.

Did you receive any Christmas cards?

I don't give or receive Christmas cards.
They are potential clutter too.

Is eggnog nice?
I've never had it, it sounds like it could be awful.

With enough rum to make me pass out indefinitely.

Which is the quickest way to Heaven?
