More about me

Well, I insist :D! Macadamia is responsible for this!

The rules say that you’ve to post five bits of information about you which you have never shared with your blog readers before. No "I plan..." or "I hope..." here - lets look at what has already happened.

1. I am very fussy about shoes – The ideal shoe must have the following qualifying criteria

a. It must be absolutely flat heeled (NO platform, plzkthx)
b. In winter, it must cover foot completely, in summer, it must have holes in front to let air in (poking winter shoe with holes is ok)
c. It must have a strap of some kind to secure it to the feet (like an airplane cargo hold)
d. It must be lightweight and comfortable, and have rubber soles so I can walk in absolute silence on any flooring
e. It must be black or brown. Design not a consideration.

2. When it comes to matters of the heart, I am very slow on the uptake.

“He’s looking at you”
“Who?”
“The guy over there”
“There are a billion guys over there” (Oh I exaggerate too)
“Only one fool enough to look at you!”
“Ah! I see the guy you mean”

And that’s that. You see, I have been at war with the gender for so long, I have no clue how to conduct peacetime negotiations. A friend once advised me that I would do well to tone down the scary, but hey, where’s the sport in that :D?

3. I can pick a subject, any subject, study it for two hours, and have an informed discussion with people who have worked on it for years, and fool them completely. In short, I am a mighty efficient word-weasel. But when it comes to subjects I really know my way around, I find it hard to talk about them with any degree of confidence. The curse of knowledge :(

4. My right foot has been run over by a car twice. Once an Ambassador, once a Santro. Didn’t feel a thing, both times

5. I used to read at the rate of five 400 page books a day. My first every book was Enid Blyton’s The Magic Faraway Tree at age 6.
