Regularly teleports to new and interesting places. Ideally, compact from the outside but comfortable inside. So, I guess a TARDIS would be my dream home.

Every place that I visit, while I am visiting it, is my favorite place.

PROMPT: Favorite Animals
Never elevate your opinion of a particular animal above the rest. I used to think quite highly of monkeys, and then one — of the kleptomaniac variety — stole my sunglasses and mocked me from a high tree like a cowardly school bully.
Isn’t it enough to know that all animals are better than people.

PROMPT: Beach or Mountains
To me, that is much like asking whether I prefer a hammer or a Phillips head screwdriver. They are different tools for different purposes. Good luck if you love your ballpeen hammer so much that it’s the only tool for you but your problem of the moment is a deeply embedded wood screw.

PROMPT: Favorite Month
Northern or Southern hemisphere? Landlocked or coastal? Temperate or Equatorial? I need more information.

PROMPT: Personal Item
Daily writing prompt
Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car).
I think it was a sword, back in the days when swordsmanship was among the subjects i studied. But I can say, with some measure of pride, that I really don’t know for sure because I don’t really put much value in owning things and have become ever less interested in possessing more stuff.
When you’re a traveler, they’re all just anchors, and not goods.
Anything expensive I buy better be absolutely essential, have multiple uses, or —ideally— both.

PROMPT: Working On
What have you been working on?
Being…. POW!… more spontaneous. 自然 (zìrán) in the Taoist conception.
