Date: 2024-06-18 03:09 am (UTC)I do have a nice piece of petrified wood up in my room. I'm not sure from what geological epoch, but presumably a few million years old at any rate.
2. What object have you owned the longest?
Of those things I'm currently in actual possession of, probably a four-volume vinyl record album composite, "Reader's Digest Musical Adventures for Young People", which was given to me when I was 10 or 11.
3. What is the newest object you own?
Cassandra got me some new magnetic bookmarks with musical and astronomical symbols on them. Unless we can count food items as "objects", those are probably it.
4. Who is your oldest living relative?
Probably my Aunt Dot, at 91, although I have a *lot* of relatives once I go back to my grandparents' generation and then down all the cousin-paths.
5. Who is your youngest living relative?
Joy is 6 going on 7; I'm sure I have younger ones if I go down those beforementioned cousin-paths, but they wouldn't be people I actually know.
