the 2021 daily meme, week 45

November 5. When was the last time you flew on a plane? 2019.

6. How many first cousins do you have? At least nineteen (two of whom are deceased) that I'm certain of, plus two maybes, and I would be unsurprised to find I have more.

7. What’s the longest period of time you’ve gone without sleep? 36 hours.

8. Did the house you grew up in have a big yard? By city standards, yes; by rural standards, no.

9. What has been the most difficult class you’ve ever taken? Classical mechanics.

10. What’s something that’s much more difficult than a lot of people realize? Book publishing.

11. What are some things a house would need to have for you to purchase it? A price I can afford in a neighborhood that's pleasant for me to live in. Depending on the regional climate, central heat/air. More than one toilet. A space where I can be private from the family. Good structural condition. (I live in a house that other buyers had passed over because of crayon graffiti in the living room by previous renters; we looked at it and said "well, a lot of it's ugly, but it can be painted over".)
