Meme!

[brigdh]

So, I am being spectacularly unproductive today, as apparently all I am capable of doing is refreshing my f'list, reading friendsfriends, reading someone else's friendsfriends, reading strangers' friendsfriends, etc. I kind of just want to poke at LJ forever more. And thus: a meme!

Ask me anything. Feel free to comment anonymously, if you prefer.

I don't know why I think this will help me actually write the proposal-thing I need to, but it can't make me less productive, so I figure it is worth a try. And if it doesn't work, hopefully at least we will all be amused.

I had not thought of that!

1. It is hard to pick one! When I was working in Nevada, we were living in tents (it was very, very rural Nevada, near the border with Utah, and we were a two hour drive from the nearest grocery store, much less hotel). There would be these huge thunderstorms, absolutely enormous, that we would be able to see rolling towards us for ages, all streaks of silent light in the sky, before they finally got to us. And then when they hit, the thunder was so loud you couldn't hear anything else, and the rain fell like a swimming pool dumped on your head. Anyway, I remember waking up in the nights to these unbelievable storms- white lightening that left aftershocks in your eyes and thunder that was short cracks instead of long, rolling rumbles and just so much rain- wrapped warm and dry in my sleeping bag, knowing that the water couldn't get into my tent, though I could see the walls shake from it, see the lightening through them, and it was just the best feeling, knowing the storm was there but it couldn't get me, and that there were hours till morning and I had no nowhere to be and nothing to do except fall back asleep.

2. Hmmmmm. Pumpkin pie! Or maybe candy corn (does that count? I associate them pretty strongly with Halloween).

3. Ew, no. I loathe them. Except for one kind of naan, which I cannot remember what it's called right now, but it's stuffed with butter and sugar and fresh shredded coconut, and is amazing. But that is the only form in which I will eat them.

Peshwari naan! It is the food of the gods.
