2021 questions (30/365 and 31/365)

January 30

What websites did you visit most frequently this week?

Dreamwidth, LiveJournal, the BBC, the virtual learning environment of My University, the search engine at My University which allows me to find peer-reviewed research publications, and the data archives of a scientific space mission.

January 31

What are your favourite things in general?

Mochi, whisky (single-malt Scotch, Japanese whisky and bourbon are my top three), Lego, computers, the internet, space, cats, space cats (thank you, the internet).

I'm not sure these question were particularly illuminating. Somehow we've gotten to the end of January. It hasn't been the most thrilling month in the history of ever, but we're still here, marching along in the same routine of the past ten months, hoping there's a future ahead of us with more diverse activities and companionship in it. Also, Humuhumu spent two hours yesterday crafting a cat toy for Telstar. Observe the immensity of his gratitude below.

What nice green eyes that cat has! ^_^

[nanila]

He's a beauty. :)

I was commenting to the Mr today that someday we’d be able to have friends to visit, explore beyond where we can walk, and maybe even meet local people. O_O

(Moving in the middle of a pandemic comes with a lot of issues, but I’m still glad we did it.)

One day, socialising...! I wonder what it will be like. I think everyone might be very hesitant at first, and then go a bit bananas.

[annofowlshire]

Yes, I expect the same. Mr should have his vaccination (at least first dose) by May if they stay to schedule (as he’s in the over 50 category). Me... later as I’m early 40s. So the summer plan is to be choosey about visitors until I’m vaccinated and then still somewhat cautious depending on what’s happening (new variants, etc.) but I think once we ease up a little Mr is going to be hard to rein in. He’s such an extrovert and it’s been a tough year for him.

Telstar exemplifying Good Catting again. 😸😸😸😸
When he thinks you're not looking he'll have a lovely time with it. It's like the CatsOfTwitter who don't use a bed or scratching post until they've heard the humans say they'll get rid of it...

[nanila]

Of course. He had a good wrestle with it once the camera was stowed away.

[azurelunatic]

Do I detect a delicate, one-claw snag of the toy?

[nanila]

You do! He sat there for quite a while like that. Humuhumu tried to pull it away a couple of times but he wasn't having it.

[silveradept]

It is a well-crafted cat toy and will no doubt be wonderful for Telstar to play with once there are no cameras around.

[nanila]

You are 100% correct.
