Memed

I was reading this over at Sister Spirit and was thinking about doing it even before I knew I’d been tagged by Chris, so here goes:

Four Jobs You’ve Had

1. Interpreter for a project of hail suppression in southeast Spain
2. Bilingual secretary (yes, that was shorthand in FRENCH) in a reinsurance office in Paris
3. Clerk in the electoral offices of Santa Barbara County
4. Administrative assistant in the liver transplant section of the UC Davis Medical Center

Four Movies You Could Watch Over and Over

1. Casablanca
2. The Rookie
3. The Singing Detective (I know this was made for TV but I saw it on the big screen)
4. Lord of the Rings

Four Places You’ve Lived

1. Madrid, Spain
2. Montpellier, France
3. Cambridge, UK
4. Cambridge, Mass

Four TV Shows You Love to Watch

I don’t have a TV…

Four Places You’ve Been on Vacation

1. Barrow, Alaska (life yellow-throated loon)
2. Bisbee, Arizona (on the way to life buff-breasted flycatcher)
3. Gibraltar (yep, it really is one of the craziest places in the world.)
4. Opatija, Croatia (I think; it was Yugoslavia then)

Four Blogs You Visit Daily

1. Via Negativa
2. Toad in the Hole
3. A Brit Abroad, though he’s in a different abroad now and doesn’t post as much, are you listening, Richard?
4. Fezoca’s Blurbs

Four of Your Favorite Foods

1. tofu cilantro
2. the veggie soft tacos at Mariachi in Davis
3. the veggie soft tacos at the roach coach on the UCSB campus
4. Jefferson Davis pie

Four Places You’d Rather Be

1. anywhere in Sweden, anytime
2. at the dinner table with good friends
3. a baseball game
4. with my sleeves rolled up, making mudpies (literal and metaphorical)

Four Albums You Can’t Live Without

I can and do live without lots of albums. I think as a couple we need music therapy. But I seem to be recreating some kind of iTunes collection which is in process and I’ll report back at a later date.

Four Vehicles You’ve Owned

1. Subaru GL hatchback (my first car I got at 37)
2. Honda Element (bought two years ago when I donated the Subie to a coworker in great need)

Four people I’m tagging

I’m not tagging anyone. Whoever would like to take this on, please do. Jenny ? Fer ?

  1. I definitely think we need a date at El Mariachi for those veggie tacos and then a movie! I also can’t wait to see how your iTunes collection turns out… living without a TV I can understand, but living without music? ¡No es posible!

  2. I can’t wait to talk with you about wanting to be in Sweden! My heritage is shining! :)
