01. The last physical book or magazine you read.

That would be The Coming of the Horseclans by Robert Adams

02. A piece of art.

There's a fantasy-themed painting on the wall in my living room.

03. The view from your window.

Tops of multiple trees, one with red flowers and another with fruit, screening the top of a neighbour's house; sky above.

04. Something you've kept from childhood.

Several books of fiction. E.g. The Unwilling Vestal by Edward Lucas White

05. Your favorite mug.

That would be the one I drank my first cup of coffee from this morning, now waiting to be washed. That would be The Konitz Mathematics mug, though I also own and love several other of their mugs.

06. Your lockscreen/desktop wallpaper.

Pure blue; fairly light. Apple keeps changing the pre-installed choices of wallpaper on every annual OS upgrade, converting my Mac desktop to their latest default, each uglier than the one from the prior year. A fellow mac user told me they don't delete their solid colour offerings, and if you've selected one of those you won't get the new default inflicted on you upon OS "upgrade".

07. Something fuzzy.

A mostly red sweater lying on the floor in my office. Or for a fuzzier choice, the dog's vaguely raccoon-themed squeak toy she's left lying in the hall.

08. A piece of physical media.

Does the external drive I use for backups count? Or in another sense of media, the stack of unread magazines?

09. A tool you use in a hobby.

That would be my computers and all their peripherals.

10. Something that makes you feel good.

Lots of choices. For simplicity, I'll just nominate my second cup of coffee, in a Konitz History mug.
