You know what? I was about to repeat my answer from the last time I did this, then I realized that there’s actually another piece of technology that I am more grateful for than my computer, phone, tablet, and iPod.
It’s my cpap. I’ve had it about a year and a half now and it has helped me so much in that time. I still bitch about it from time to time, but it’s important to me and it helps me sleep.

Today I am grateful for the smell of the waters of Puget Sound. There’s a specific scent they can get as we turn toward the winter months that makes me feel calmer and centered in my own skin. It’s a smell I wish I could bottle for future sniffing.

I tried this back in 2016 and didn’t get very far. Let’s try it again, shall we?

The top 10 places I wish to visit in my lifetime? Okay, let’s see what we have here. And please note that this list will be pretty much the first 10 that come to mind, as there are lots of places I’d love to visit. And yes, if there’s a way to collect a bottle of water from any of them for my juju collection, I will make sure it happens.

Yep, we’re going to give this whole posting regularly thing a try again. Hopefully this time, it’s better than the last time we tried and I’ll just recycle that last attempt in November again.
So this time, it’s a bunch of lists. Nice and simple to ease back into blogging daily again. And who knows? I might get some ideas for actual blog posts…
There will be a few days that I prepare ahead of time this month, because I’ll be out of town and won’t necessarily have access to a computer to post it in a timely manner.
This was something I answered for a swap I did, and I had so much fun with it, I thought I’d share the answers with y’all…
Would You Rather…
Drop your favorite book in the toilet -or- watch it fall into the wood chipper?
You know what? I was going to say toilet, but changed my mind. I’d rather drop it in the wood chipper, because I can buy a new copy for myself AND the shredded book can become compost.
Read only 1 book a year but remember everything -or- read 100 books a year and remember nothing?
Yeah, I’d rather remember what I read, so I’ll go with the one book option. Unless it’s a shitty book I’ve been given… LOL
Read only the first page of a book -or- read only the last page?
First page only. I need to be hooked and interested, not spoiled…
Get locked in a Library -or- locked in a bookstore?
While both have their merits, I’d prefer the library, as there’s more than just books there to work with.
Read a book with a cliffhanger ending -or- read a book with a heartbreaking ending?
Screw cliffhanger endings! I actually tend to despise those with a white hot passion that is hotter than the sun. Gimme some tears and a solid final ending.
Read an awesome book -or- watch a movie?
Honestly, it depends on the book and movie. But for the most part, I have preferred books to the movie adaptations, so I guess I’ll say the book for now.
read only series -or- only stand alones?
This is predicated by how much money and time I have. If I have enough of both, series. If not, then I’ll go with standalones, as they’re easier to consume in the long run.
Professional reviewer -or- famous author?
Famous author, hands down. I have so many stories I want to tell people…
Favorite book become a movie -or- tv show?
I’ve had both happen and it’s a toss-up. Movies are usually more finite and able to stick to the canon of the books, whereas TV shows can run way off-canon, as it were. But TV shows have more of their own extant canon to work with… Honestly, I really can’t choose here…
Would you rather your eyeballs be located next to your bellybutton -or- have to quote Scarlett O’ Hara 10 every day?
A bellybutton view of the world could be interesting. And far less painful than anything to do with Gone with the Wind.
Okay, so I’m going to use this meme from FB as a way to ease back into posting over here.
And FTR, the list is somehow missing numbers 24 & 25, so this actually works out to 38 questions total. *shrugs*
