666

Haven't quite figured out this 'tag' thing but it seems to be some sort of infectious creepy crawly that provokes a lot of laughs and the occasional scowl (I'm not looking in the mirror, so don't ask)

Quick introduction:

You must post a blog with six weird facts or habits about yourself. These cannot be used against you later on :)
- At the bottom name the six people you will tag next.
- Leave them a comment to let them know they've been tagged and to read your blog

So thanks (and silent curses) to Sanity Starved here's my first tentative attempt.


I.......I live in a starship docked at Atlantis
II.....I paint deathmasks
III...I bathe in campari
IV....I talk to stones
V.....I drink witches brew
VI...I eat people

Cannot do this. too hard. you're all sniggering now. try again. true or false?


1. I read newspapers and magazines backwards

2. I have to crunch at least three green chillies whole with every meal.

3. I can light a cigarette in a typhoon on a beach, or pretty much anywhere

4. I can read shoulders (and toes etc)

5. I can eat anything (snake soup, deer's testicles, pigs heart, blood fry) except onions

6. I can see you and not see you at the same time

I'm really struggling now. Will give up before I bore you to tears!

and if that isn't enough, here's my friendly chinese whisper to 6 of you to perpetuate this for posterity!

Gypsynan grinning at the thought!

Aria for those wicked lines she slips in when you least expect it

Aradhita who I'm hoping will be smiling

VP who carefully camouflages his goofy grin (don't kill me)

Mermaid who may find it hard to make time for this

PB would be rather nice if you did

and I won't mind if some of you ignore this (note I didn't say ALL!)

Aradhita said...

You super-educated, food-loving, chain-smoking, Kashmiri(? the only other person I knew who had whole green chillies was a kashmiri babe frm college days), phsychic! It is so difficult to have your attention, is it not? ;)

aparna said...

:) Should have tried the Snake Soup while i could, and yeah, can eat almost anything under the sun. Except for dog-meat, reminds me of my pets! But of course, i lurve onions! Mostly raw ones to go with daal and non-veg dishes.

nice post.

Yeah very very un-inkblot-blue-like. :D

san: oh yes,snake soup with chrysanthemum petals too floating on top..yummier than chicken certainly!

aradhita:now where did all those dishy adjectives come from- you certainly got my attention, but Kashmiri am not!

aparna: thanks. liked yours too.
and you thought you knew me..:P ?

That Girl said...

well i cant read books and mags backwards....but i can very effectively read them upside down while passing by or if someone else is reading something interesting...

"I can see you and not see you at the same time" was like i can talk n annoy u at the same time...lol

Inks, will try to get around to it when I can. I'm not one to post personal stuff in a meme on my site, so maybe you'll settle for it here.

1. I can connect body ailments with spiritual pain.
2. I love ketchup on ANYTHING.
3. I'm of East Indian descent, and can't handle spicy food:)
4. One of my eyes is slightly higher than the other.
5. I can tough my nose with my tongue.
6. I cry when I watch a person achieve their personal best (sports, health, achievements, insights, etc.)

OK, not so weird, but some stuff about me.

Inkblot said...

aria: thanks, I had fun with this. Now waiting for yours!


mermaid:thrilled you did it!

hate ketchup but 1 and 6 sound familiar, but hey- tongue with nos sounds awesome- one of them must be really long...hmm, will not elaborate on the possible implications..:P

{illyria} said...

LOL! it's horribly cute, though.

Punvati said...

What do you mean you can read shoulders and toes? And for point 6, ditto for me!
