So Bomseh has updated. Yay! And in homage and obeissance, (and also coz he seems like an interesting guy), I will sate his curiosity [and that of one 3N who strikes me as equally sweet and fun].
1. What time did you get up this morning?
5.40 a.m.
2. How do you like your steak?
Very, very, very soft, what my ex once described as chewing-gum consistency. What. I have lazy teeth **grin**
3. What was the last film you saw at the cinema?
Er … Kung fu panda I think, but I spent the whole time cradling poor princess who was freezing, there was too much AC. So we bought the DVD and watched it over and over and over…
4. What is your favorite TV show?
Big bang theory, hands down! Though I usually watch it on DVD. If it has to be actual terrestrial TV, I would say Zain Challenge. What.
5. If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be?
Nairobi, more hands down. There’s no place I’d rather be.
6. What did you have for breakfast?
Four slices of brown bread with peanut butter, blueband and jam and almost sugarless black lime tea.
7. What is your favorite cuisine?
Mokimo with chicken stew. No wait … cuisine suggests type/genre yes? Ok, fast food. Preferably burgers. With cheese. Lots of cheese.
8. What foods do you dislike?
Seafood. Especially octopus. And squid. And prawns. And crabs. And … all of them really. I’m sure they taste lovely, but I refuse to eat anything that looks like it should be eating me! Also, mrenda. Eeew! And chilli, can’t handle the stuff.
9. Favorite Place to Eat?
Um … anywhere with food? No, scratch that, I’ll go with Forodhani. Their Zanzibari pizza is to die for! Cheap too.
10. Favorite dressing?
American garden mayonnaise. I take it on everything from rabbit food to hotdogs.

I don’t drive … yet … but my dream car is a burgundy old-school volkswagen beetle named Sasha the Red…

21. Who are you most curious about their responses to this?
3N. And that’s bad grammar.
22. Bird watcher?
Yep. In all forms, shapes and sizes. Human ones too **grin** I like their pretty colours and grace. Just don’t ask me their names.
23. Are you a morning person or a night person?
Eh … I like to sleep in very late, though I get more done when I wake up early. Plus I do my best studying between 2 and 4 a.m…
24. Do you have any pets?
Nope. I do want a black cat though, and an aquarium.
25. Any new and exciting news you’d like to share?
Mwehehehehe wouldn’t you like to know **grin**

Not anymore.
30. Always wear your seat belt?
Almost always.

Facebook. I rarely open it so I rigged it to forward all my messages to gmail **grin**
39. Which store would you choose to max out your credit card?
I don’t do credit cards. But as I discovered today, I can spend infinite amounts on shoes and jewellery **grin**
40. Do anything spontaneous lately?

Burgundy [it’s a deep maroonish purplish shade of red. Or maybe a reddish purplish shade of maroon?]

I will have three … as soon as I get someone to knock me out and deliver me to the parlour – I have an intense fear of pain, and endless needle pricks do not sound like fun!

What is the molar theorem? I like ur idea of vacation, Nocturnal Doctor 3CB. With internet in the house it is a holiday already.
10.49 pm. Isn’t it illegal to be online then?
Burgundy? Is that a colour or is it the name of a newscaster?
Hello I just received a popup from my firewall when I opened your page do you happen to know how come this occured? Could it possibly from your advertising or something? Thanks, really odd i pray it was harmless?
Its like you read my mind! You appear to know a lot
about this, like you wrote the book in it or something.
I think that you could do with a few pics to drive the message home
a little bit, but other than that, this is great blog.
A great read. I will definitely be back.
Howdy! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog.
Is it very difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty
fast. I’m thinking about setting up my own but I’m not sure where to start.
Do you have any points or suggestions? Thank you
I am curious to find out what blog system you’re working with?
I’m experiencing some minor security problems with my latest blog and I would
like to find something more safe. Do you have any recommendations?
I was wondering if you ever considered changing the
page layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what
youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so
people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one
or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
