I would be safe from this kind of thing, down here at the far end of the blogosphere’s long tail, but for the spousal unit and her irritating habit of having sociable friends. I appear to have married a popular person. How’d that happen?
Anyway, grrr, but I pretty much cannot say no to my wife, so:
Four jobs I’ve had
- streetside hot dog seller
- janitor
- proofreader/copyeditor for scientific mss
- research scientist
Four movies I can watch over and over
- Lilo and Stitch
- Cool Hand Luke
- Jesus of Montreal
- Lawrence of Arabia
Four places I’ve lived
- Madang, Papua New Guinea
- Gracemere, Australia
- Sydney, Australia
- Portland, Oregon
Four TV shows I love
- Firefly
- Wonderfalls
- A Touch of Frost
- PBS’ Now, before it was gutted
Four places I’ve vacationed
- Kuwait
- Jersey (Channel Islands)
- Amsterdam
- Northwest Island (on the Great Barrier Reef)
Four of my favorite dishes
- rice and beans
- vegetable soup (spousal unit’s version)
- cheese, tomato and onion sammiches
- saag paneer
Four sites I visit daily
my Bloglines account keeps me in touch with some 200 sites; here are four I particularly recommend:
- Your Daily Art
- So What Can I Do
- Chromasia
- Ask Metafilter (avoid MeFi itself!)
Four places I would rather be right now
- wherever the spousal unit is
- Brisbane, with some friends I miss very much
- Northwest Island
- Amsterdam
Four bloggers I am tagging
I’ll have to think about this some more. I’ve decided not to pass it on, for reasons made clear in the next entry.
