Answers to today’s questions at http://f.riday5.com/2021/11/05/friday-5-for-november-5-november-rain/

1. What unique behavior, attire, or ceremony element have you seen at a wedding?

I’ve only ever been to one wedding, about 20 years ago and as such I don’t know for sure, but I don’t think there was anything unique about it. I think the most unique thing about weddings are that of the people in my circle I would have attended the weddings of, none others have married – either they’re single or just live together with their SO.

2. Who’s your favorite piano player? (alternate question: Among people you know, who’s the best piano player?)

The only pianist I can remember is Richard Clayderman and I like his work, so I guess him! (No one I know plays piano)

3. When did rain notably ruin your plans?

Never as far as I can remember. I don’t really mind rain. It rains here a lot during the winter months (so, 8-9 months of the year) (or it’s otherwise wet because it rained during the night) and often in the summer too so it’s very common and I’m used to it. I’d be upset all the time if I minded the rain.

Maybe when I was a kid and we were camping and had planned to do something with my parents or my best friend… but even then I remember loving things like swimming in the ocean while it was raining.

4. What is your going-to-bed ritual like?

I need to read fiction for at least 10 minutes… doesn’t matter whether it’s something I’ve read so many times before that I know it by heart, or whether it’s something completely new. Just need to read something fictional to relax and get into the sleepy state of mind. Of course, often I intend to read just a bit and then look up and it’s three hours later…

5. When did you last give roses to someone or receive them from someone?

I just received roses from my Mom and her SO on Tuesday when they came to visit my birthday! They are the same color as in the pic above.

I can’t quite remember when I last gave them – I gave flowers to my Mom in June for her name day but I can’t remember whether it was roses or something else. Could’ve been those roses that come in pots – she likes them in the summer because then she can plant them in her garden.
