notquiteisraeliWhere do the cats sleep?
In our bed. Usually on top of Eyal, which makes sense, because he sleeps on his stomach and doesn't toss and turn much. I sleep on my side and am notorious for tossing and turning. However, both cats have been known to visit me for pets and cuddles, which are always welcome. And yes, I know the difference. Nacho is floofier, and he has a very distinctive, very loud purr.
What jewelry do you wear on a daily basis?
My wedding set. I wear my engagement ring on my right hand and my wedding band on my left. Occasionally I wear a pendant that my mom gifted me when I turned 35 (it's my favorite necklace) and occasionally I'll wear small earrings, but I'm not much for flashy jewelry (my wedding set is pretty understated). I am in the market for a wristwatch, though. (Fun fact: I gave Eyal a wristwatch as an engagement present.)
How is your house decorated?
Um...eclectic? My office is not the same as the living room. If I had to pin it down I'd say nerd flag flying. Just yesterday we finally got a print we ordered awhile ago, of a vintage Israeli postage stamp (Eyal had a stamp collection as a kid). We also have sun and moon figurines that Eyal picked up in Mexico City about eight years ago. And books and cat hair everywhere.
What is your greatest extravagance?
Books and quality skin care.
What is a super-specific museum you want to visit?
At the moment, the Israeli Museum of Cartoons in Holon.
Which historical figure do you most identify with?
Franz Kafka.
What is the most beautiful place you've ever seen in person?
Jerusalem, and I was fortunate enough to live there. The Mishna says in tractate Kiddushin 49a: "Ten measures of beauty were given to the world. Jerusalem received nine." Second place would be Tzfat.
Would you survive a zombie apocalypse?
No. I would very quickly be zombie chow.
Are you good at solving puzzles?
Depends on the puzzle. I like crosswords and Jumble.
What's your biggest fear?
It's still heights, believe it or not. I have survived multiple rocket attacks and missile attacks and they don't scare me anywhere near as much as a bridge or precipice.
How do you express your love for someone?
Hugs and snuggles. Homemade muffins and cookies. Long conversations. Sending cute memes and photos.
What's the most annoying musical instrument?
Do vuvuzelas count?
Do you think fart and dick jokes are played out?
Fart and dick jokes are immortal.
Do you talk to yourself?
All the time.
