* | Unless we’re talking blah gray cloud cover; then it’s stars all the way. ** | Rose for the flower, lavender for the color. *** | I initially crossed both of these out (neither are really my jam), but then I considered: does Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries technically count as a police procedural? **** | I don’t discriminate, but as I have frequently told @stillscape​, I’m also cinematically illiterate. ***** | Shame on you for even making me consider this choice. ****** | Pastels to live with, neons to wear. (I prefer jewel and earth tones to either.) ******* | I love a good series, but I’ve seen too many authors fail to stick the landing - or fall victim to a sophomore slump. ******** | Both? Both. Both is good.  ********* | Form follows function, my dears: are we merely fueling up or are we making an event of it?

4. how did your elementary school teachers describe you? 

Oh god, i was deeply shy, compulsively obedient, and hyperlexic so mostly i imagine their comments ran the gamut from “a joy to have in class,” to “instead of playing with the other kids at recess, she hides in the bathroom and reads, is she alright???” [Reader, i was not]

11. what you have for breakfast on an average day?

I generally go through phases where i really go hard on one kind of breakfast every day for weeks on end, and then suddenly hate it, much like your average cat. I’m not usually a sweets for breakfast kind of girl, but right now i’m very into full-fat greek yogurt with a mix of two kinds of granola (luxe!) with added raw almonds and dried cherries. We’ll see how long it lasts.

30. places that you find sacred?

Oooh this is a tough one. I’m not terribly spiritual, but i think art museums have a particular kind of sacred power over me. I cannot be unhappy or anxious in a museum.I don’t even think about the outside world that much. It’s a safe bubble, a liminal space that has positive potential? I don’t know if that even makes sense, but i feel like it’s true for me.

Also i am a devoted napper, and a good nap spot that is separate from my sleeping space is totally sacred. I’m always admiring comfy nooks for napping in other people’s spaces.
