So it's Maggie by a mile. And what better way to get to know her than by this general questionnaire type tag from Tessie:
Last Movie You Saw In A Theater:
JodhaaAkbar. About 45 minutes too long, but Hrithik Roshan was a revelation - I'd never paid him much attention before. He's totally droolicious!
What Book Are You Reading:
On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan. Depressing book- would've ditched it but for my OCD of having to finish every book I start.
Favorite Board Game:
Scrabble. Also known as the Get-Ready-For-Divorce game in our household.
Favorite Magazine:
Don't really have one, but The Economist is always an interesting read, and Vanity Fair is fun too.
Favorite Smells:
Wet earth, freshly baked bread, Moppet right after her bath...
Favorite Sound:
Moppet's giggle. It's infectious.
Worst Feeling In The World:
Being alone. No, scratch that - thinking that you're alone.
What Is The First Thing You Think Of When You Wake?
These days it's usually - "Wow, Moppet only woke up thrice/ twice / once last night"
Favorite Fast Food Place:
I don't particularly enjoy fast food, but I love MOS Burger - a Japanese burger chain.
Future Child's Name:
HA HA HA HA! At the rate we're going, it will be Baby Boy [Surname].
Finish This Statement. "If I Had A Lot Of Money I'd...”
Travel round the world.
Do You Drive Fast?
Yes, but don't tell my husband - he thinks I'm a staid old lady type driver, and I'd like to keep that image with him :-)
Do You Sleep With A Stuffed Animal?
Well, there are nights when the husband certainly feels like one.
Storms-Cool Or Scary?
The garden variety thunderstom - totally cool. The horrible ones that cause death and destruction, not so much.
What Was Your First Car?
Suzi
Favorite Drink:
Ice cold water.
Finish This Statement, "If I Had The Time I Would .....”
Travel round the world.
Do You Eat The Stems On Broccoli?
This assumes that I eat broccoli - which I don't.
If You Could Dye Your Hair Any Color, What Would Be Your Choice?
I really wanted a deep, dark, ink blue - the sort which looks black, but shines blue in certain lights. But on the one occasion I went to a fancy salon in Bombay and asked for it, I was persuaded by the stylist to go for hot pink and red streaks instead. It was ok - I particularly enjoyed the looks on the faces of friends, colleagues and family when they saw me - but I'm not doing that again. If I ever see the right shade of blue, I might try it though....
Name All The Different Cities/Towns You Have Lived In.
Chronologically - Hyderabad, Manchester, Brack (Libya), Hyderabad again, Ahmedabad, Bombay, Chennai, Bombay again, and Bangkok.
Favorite Sports To Watch:
English Premier League Football with the husband. Under duress, I must add.
One Nice Thing About The Person Who Sent This To You:
She's a newly in love bride-to-be.
What's Under Your Bed?
A floor that I'm proud to say is as clean as the floor that's not under my bed.
Would You Like To Be Born As Yourself Again?
Sure, just with better hair. And better eyesight. Oh, and while I'm at it, legs like Gisele Bundschen.
Morning Person Or Night Owl?
Actually, I'm a day person. I like to sleep at night, and don't like to nap during the day. Unlike the husband, who if he had his way, would work all night and sleep all day. So when I say we're as different as night and day, you know I mean it literally.
Over Easy Or Sunny Side Up?
Any way you like. I LOVE eggs - can eat them in any shape for every meal of every day.
Favorite Place To Relax:
Home.
Favorite Pie:
I love all sorts of pies - both sweet and savoury.
Favorite Ice Cream Flavor:
Mostly anything chocolate.
Of All The People You Tagged This To, Who's Most Likely To Respond First?
I don't know, maybe
NM?
Or Swati?
Or Timepass?
