Another blog challenge from Julia

I love these games. 31 – is it Propp's functions? And once again, you can see clearly that the questions were compiled by a very young person.
  1. Where is you mobile phone? Somewhere in my backpack
  2. Where is your significant other? Buying groceries

  4. You mother? Perhaps brewing a witch potion
  5. Your father? Since I don't believe in afterlife, dissolved and fertilised the earth
  6. The best thing you know? This was difficult. Probably walking in nature
  7. You dream last night? For once, clear and significant. I dreamed that our cat was still alive but very tired and wanted to lie down, but there was another cat, a grey tom with white socks, who kept poking at her to keep her on her feet and walking. Dr Freud, please explain
  8. Your goal? Live long enough to see my grandchildren grow up, perhaps see my great-grandchildren

I kind of like that we miss each other.

Well not that we do, but you know.
