Ten Pointless Facts about Me

I love doing blogging challenges or participating in blogging prompts. It's fun, and a great way to get a little insight into other people's lives.

I thought I'd create my own, so here it is. Why not do your own blog with your answers and share it. Encourage others. Drop me a note, or comment at the end, if you participate and I will add a link at the bottom of this page. Use the tag #Pointless10 if you're on the socials.

Do you floss your teeth?

No! Pointless. A good brush is enough. I do however use toothpicks to clear any food from between my teeth. I've just never gotten into the flossing methodology.

Tea, coffee, or water?

Between the three, water - preferable still and ice-cold. I dabble in tea -- maybe one cup every other day. I've never had a coffee. I know, I'm odd. Did anyone ask about wine? ;-)

Footwear preference?

Bare feet as much as possible, around the house mostly. Outdoors, generally a canvas shoe (Sketchers) . I don't have any sneakers.

Favourite dessert?

Lime Cheesecake. Not the American baked kind, but the set one.

The first thing you do when you wake up?

Check my phone (don't we all) then shower. I need to shower first thing when I get up, otherwise I don't feel refreshed. When we have friends staying over, they always comment that they never see me in the morning until I am showered and dressed.

Age you'd like to stick to?

26 seems a good age to be for body health, but I want to retain all the wisdom I've gained at 55. Oddly, if someone asks how old I am I automatically say 26 without even thinking about it. I then correct myself, which makes me look stupid!!

How many hats do you own?

Three. All brimmed style hats, no caps. I love wearing a hat but don't do it enough.

Describe the last photo you took

A bottle of red wine I tried at a friend's house; didn't want to forget what it was.

Worst TV show

Any soap opera. Although they are a work of fiction, people seem to believe that's how we should live real life... As rude, disrespectful, argumentative twats.

Generally, I do not watch TV. I can easily go a whole week without looking at anything. I used to be a news-a-holic, and watch TV news, but then I started consuming it online, by reading. These days I skim the news -- it is so depressing.

As a child, what was your aspiration for adulthood?

To become a vet. Didn't happen. I did not apply myself at school, and could not wait to leave. I became a Technologist; which has served me very well.
