Sleep, think, connect

[metawidget]

From thefridayfive:

1. How many hours a day/night do you usually sleep?

I'd say an average of seven… but with a range of six to maybe nine?

2. What do you do when you can't sleep?

Often reading, on paper if I'm smart.

3. How often do you devote time to just thinking about something?
I think I can go into that state when walking… I don't do it deliberately that much, though. Maybe every few weeks?

4. If you had to choose one person to never talk to again, who would you choose?

There are so many people in the world I talk to only once. And nobody that I would want to inoculate myself against ever talking to again.

5. If you had to choose one person, NOT a significant other, who you would speak to every day for the rest of your life, who would you choose?

There could be some gaming of the system here so long as my natural lifespan extends theirs… one would be a hard choice.

on paper if I'm smart

This is where I always fail to make wise decisions about bedtime reading.

My usual bed-time reading failure is stopping reading.

Why is "significant other" in the singular? :(

[metawidget]

I copied straight from the meme, and I guess you could read in in the same way as "not your parent..." but yeah, not any of my significant others is how I would put it.

If it said, "not your parent" I would, also, wonder as I have two. But, this is another place where the number of parents someone has varies. I'd use significant other(s) or parent(s), just to not discriminate.

But, I'm not really questioning your cut & paste, so much as grumbling about the basic monogamonormativity of the phrasing.

From [community profile] thefridayfive:

1. How many hours a day/night do you usually sleep?
About 4 hours a night at best.

2. What do you do when you can't sleep?
Talk to my friends on the other side of the world, read, tv, or paint.

3. How often do you devote time to just thinking about something?
It depends? Sometimes an hour or two, or a few times it was all week or longer. Off and on.
4. If you had to choose one person to never talk to again, who would you choose?
The woman who lied about how my mom broke her leg. If I never had to see or talk to her I'd be good.

5. If you had to choose one person, NOT a significant other, who you would speak to every day for the rest of your life, who would you choose?
My best friend Jenny who lives in Australia. We could talk all day and night, lol.

Thought I'd share a bit about me through this meme. :-)
