Ok well for today I was thinking I would post some questions cos I haven't done that as a "theme" for awhile now. Hope these will be ok questions for everyone, I apologize in advance if they aren't.
Hope everyone has a nice day!

1. I honestly don't really know, I feel a bit anxious, but when I'm on the internet I feel okay
2. I enjoy talking about music, mostly, and life in general. And I guess getting to know each other if I'm talking to someone
3. Listening to music, browsing the internet, trying to take care of myself (which is hard sometimes)
4. Winter
5. Well I am still stuck in life.... there's some tiny bits of progress like interviews and all, but I am not expecting much from them because I don't want to be disappointed. I have been talking to a guy and he asked my number but I am not sure yet. Hehe.
Thank you @JMG ... @Innocent Forever & I agree w/much of what you say, @cymbele & @puffymilk @JDot as well ~will/shall try n' return later: when i've got me brain- back!! ;-D Here's hoping you feel better soon @Pebble mouse
Good morning. Thank you for opening the cafe and tagging me JMG & Inno.
1. How are you feeling right now?
Trapped by my 19 year old cat, he has to sit practically on top of me. Lately he's been so needy. I cater to him bcz he's so old.
2. What are some things you enjoy talking about?
Food, art, feelings, animals, life, tv
3. What are some things you enjoy doing?
Browsing flea markets, bookstores, reading, drawing, going out to eat or for a drink. Walking in nature. Hanging with a friend or two.
4. What is your fave season?
Fall is pretty cool with all the pumpkins and you can wear your sweaters and boots again.
5. Is there anything else you feel like talking about? If so, feel free to talk about it here!

Mostly good. I just had a session of Elden Ring with a friend who's never played it or watched a playthrough before. Had a lot of fun watching him fall into traps that have previously been the death of me, and laughing at his misery.
Although because of this bug i've had lately, i've been waking up with a headache every day. I couldn't get it to go away this morning, so i went into the ER session with my head already hurting, so by the end of it, it's really sore, and i feel sick because of it. But i survived the session, and now i can take it easy until the headache passes. And it was totally worth the pain.
One of my favourite topics to ask people about is their hopes and dreams. I always find you can learn a lot about a person from how they answer that. How comfortable they are talking about their goals, what those goals are, what aspects they focus on or overlook, it's all very informative. Otherwise, i tend to most enjoy talking about music, film, tv and video games. Although really, i'm usually open to discussing whatever interests someone, because i find their interest in that subject interesting. Even if it's something that isn't really my kinda bag, i find it fun to learn why they like that thing so much.
I mostly just enjoy playing games, watching stuff, listening to music, and chatting with people. I keep meaning to read more, but i still don't really do it that much. Although i've also been getting more into fashion lately, cos there are so many cool styles out there i'm psyched to try now.
Autumn (Fall for the Americans). It's cool, but not as cold as winter, the trees all turn beautiful shades in a wonderful expression of the cycle of life, and it has my favourite holiday, halloween. And the most British holiday, Guy Fawkes, where people gather together with their children to burn effigies of a man who tried to assassinate the government and got hung, drawn, and quartered for his efforts. And we light fireworks because his plan was to effectively blow up a massive bomb underneath the Houses of Parliament, which i guess makes him an early days terrorist. Somehow we consider this family friendly.
You did a solid job with the questions today @JMG. Really thought-provoking stuff, thanks. And thank you for opening the cafe and tagging me. 
Hope everyone out there has the best day they can today.

2. What are some things you enjoy talking about?
3. What are some things you enjoy doing?
4. What is your fave season?
5. Is there anything else you feel like talking about? If so, feel free to talk about it here!
1. Right now, just sleepy. In general, anxious,
2. Spirituality/faith, music, love, politics (to a degree), ideas, recovery, life as a solitary person
3. Listening to music, writing, playing music, spending too much time on the internet, cooking, watching TV, chatting/texting
4. Autumn, because I love the change between summer and winter. Second is spring, because of the change from winter to summer, I also like winter, because it seems like everything slows down and is quieter
5. The main thing on my mind now is my upcoming surgery. I'm glad to take advantage of this place to talk about it, I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't talk about it. This place (and a couple of people IRL) is my only support system.
I included a couple of my favorite pics from this thread
peace

Questions:

OK. Slept quite well, up fairly early, getting ready to head out and so far, I’m on schedule!
2. What are some things you enjoy talking about?Books, animals, [politics — but not on SF], music
3. What are some things you enjoy doing?,
Hiking, walking in the woods, canoeing (“paddling” not real, long-distance canoeing), reading, writing, helping people, cooking, snuggling my cat, feeding the squirrels, chipmunks and chickadees in the park, sharing a meal with friends
4. What is your fave season?
I prefer spring, fall, and winter, but there are things about summer that I enjoy, too. I prefer to feel cool to being hot.
5. Is there anything else you feel like talking about? If so, feel free to talk about it here!
Just want to wish everyone a good day…something happy, something creative, something in nature, something for others and something for you…
The tulip bud today. It doesn't seem to have grown since 2 days ago.

1) A mixture i think of calm and frantic? Maybe frantic isn't the word 🤔 but, i have several things i want and need to do but feel like there's never enough time. i also feel pretty good because i went walking for 40 mins with my sister and i am trying to do better with exercise and healthy diet.
2) Video games, horror movies, gardening, sewing, most importantly cats. 🤭 People's history and learning about their past and learning the wisdoms they share.
3) Sewing, playing video games, reading, learning new things, watching horror movies, spending time with my cats, gardening.
4)Autumn. i love the beautiful colors of the leaves as they change, the sound of them as they crunch beneath my feet or flutter in the wind. i love that Halloween is during Autumn, and the scary movies they show. i love how the weather is just perfect, not too hot or cold, and i can snuggle into a sweater or a blanket sipping on tea or hot coco.
5) i do but i don't because at times i feel it is doesn't matter what it is i want to talk about, it doesn't matter 😅 (people have been ignoring me [in person] lately so i feel a bit ignored and i often get interrupted when talking)
But the weather is nice today. The sun is a bit too bright for my vampire self but there's a nice breeze.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day.
I have my glasses for the eclipse....Houston is showing it's going to have about an 80% experience with it. I don't know where you are but for reference for me I saw it's going to be 100% in Austin which is about 150 miles from here so I hope you get to take a lunch at work while it's happening!

Thank you for the tags
I have always called Autumn my favorite because of the temperature changes from summer's heat but I think I'm equally enamored with Spring with nature's colors coming to life.
Hiking, walking, being outside in nature especially the woods or in the mountains or by water, yoga and meditation, music, used to love nursing and traveling and playing dominoes.....

Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone xx
1. How are you feeling right now?
Ok. A bit tired. Not overly looking forward to the week ahead. A bit flat I suppose and everything feeling like it’s an effort.
2. What are some things you enjoy talking about?
I used to have a passion for working with students who were autistic, I was told that I lit up when I spoke about it. The enthusiasm has reduced of late, partly because work never really took me up on my request to get more involved with the kids.
3. What are some things you enjoy doing?
Stitching, gardening, watching TV. Walking, swimming, being away on holiday away from ‘life’.
4. what is your fav season?
Definitely Spring. Not too hot and you can see all the plants beginning to grow. The daffodils have been lovely this year.
5. I have realised of late that it is really difficult to ever feel truly happy. I know aiming for happiness should never be the goal as it is pretty much impossible, but everything always feels flat and empty. The meds I take stop the lows but there are no highs either. I guess better that than the lows.
On that cheery note. Hope everyone is doing ok. Enjoy the cafe. ☕️
