I was tagged by both @kyluxtrashcompactor and @cuppyren ❤ ❤

Rules: Answer 8 questions, tag 8 people.

Last movie you watched:  Starred Up. It was really freaking incredibly, and my emotions are all still pretty haywire from it and I think I might watch it again tonight, or at least part of it, because not only is it beautifully shot, it’s such a compelling look at policing.

Last song you listened to: Diminuendo” by Britt Warner

Last book you read: I just reread Mirgorod by Gogol. I’m also reading Hawk of May by Gillian Bradshaw, which I HIGHLY recommend to anyone interested in the historical King Arthur. It isn’t quite historically accurate, of course, nor does it intend to be, but it’s awesome.

The last thing you ate: Spaghetti with homemade alfredo sauce.

If you could be anywhere right now, where would you be: Either Bucharest or Brasov in Romania.

Where would you time travel to: About two or three hundred years from now. I really, really, really, really want to see when we break the light speed problem and figure out interstellar travel. And then go and see EVERYTHING.

Fictional character you would hang out with for a day: Luthien, from The Silmarillion. I’ve always LOVED her, and I’d love to just be able to spend a long time talking about everything to her.

Since there is no question 8, I’m making one up: If you could only read one book for the rest of your life, what would it be: The Lord of the Rings. No question about it!.

I’ma tag @uptownhuxyouup, @roberthouse, @argent-gale, @waltzkatzenblut@badsadspacedads, @egregiousderp, @crackedverbosity, and @kyluxtrashbin ​but only if y’all are interested ❤

@missabigailhobbs tagged me in this cute meme. Thanks dear!!!

Lockscreen is Krennic by @rachaelstott, background is Hux’s mother by @artyaourter. Last song listened to is American Kids by Kenny Chesney, and that’s me in my very recent and very snowy selfie.

Um. @cuppyren @kyluxtrashbin, @theweddingofthefoxes, @thecopperriver um… whoever else wants to, consider yourself tagged! And like, skip the selfie part if you want to do the rest but don’t want to do that part!

Hope I’m not too late for this: weird fact about me: After reading a book, doesn’t matter how long ago, I can almost immediately find scenes again if I’m looking for something specific. Also works if I only read the ebook version and grab the printed book (for some reason).

It’s great to have a good memory for placement in storyline and in physical objects!!! Especially if you like to read a lot

Honestly, this vividly reminds me for some reason of writing an impassioned defense of the printed book over ebook varieties like 8 years ago. Man. Now I read ebooks all the time, cause I can made the type bigger and don’t have to switch into my reading glasses. 

Tell me a fact about yourself and I’ll tell you one it reminds me of about myself.

forever ago @youdidnotseeme tagged me in a top ten songs you love deeply meme. Ummmmmmmmmm I listen to A LOT of music so this was really hard. 

1. Hear the Willow Cry, The Steeldrivers

2. Woodstock, Joni Mitchell

3. Never Again, The Swarm

4. The Day that Never Comes, Metallica

5. Moondance, Van Morrison

6. Rhiannon, Fleetwood Mac

7. The Song Remains the Same, Led Zeppelin

8. Paranoid, Black Sabbath

9. Shades of Grey, Billy Joel

10. Hoy es Adios, Santana

I think what this reveals is a lot about what I listened to growing up. Santana was the first rock concert I ever went to, and we had tickets in the 4th row. LOL.

Um hey @cosleia, @kyluxtrashcompactor, @badsadspacedads​, @cuppyren​, @artyaourter​, @georgeorwell@thecopperriver​ and literally whoever else wants to, I have no tagging ability but i’d love to see what you come up with?
