Lists of 3.

So first of all, I owe a tag list to Ktrion, but it's hard coming up with seven! (I think I owe J-Lu a really long list as well from a few months back.)

So this one's from Luna:

Three books I can read over and over:
Well, Izzy's books, obviously. I don't think I've ever really read anything more than once in my adult life, though I seem to remember reading John Irving's The World According to Garp twice. And Jose Rizal's Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo.

Three places I've lived:
- next to a hundred year-old cursed mango tree that was the site of various supernatural manifestations, including balls of fire and a woman in a white robe
- midway up a hill on Buffalo St., one of the steepest streets in Ithaca
- two minutes away from Ocean Beach and Lands' End

Three TV shows I love:
- Fawlty Towers
- Homicide: Life on the Street
- The Sopranos

Three highly regarded and recommended TV shows that I've never watched a single minute of:
- All in the Family
- The West Wing
- Sex and the City

Three places I've vacationed:
- a former monastery on the cliff overlooking Amalfi
- a mosquito-infested rocky beach on Puerto Galera
- the Maharajah of Mysore's former summer palace

Three of my favorite dishes:
See this post.

Three sites I visit daily:
Well, almost daily:
- Last.fm
- The New York Times
- The Philippine Daily Inquirer

Three places I would rather be right now:
- Los Banos
- in a villa in Tuscany
- sitting on a sofa, watching TV, eating chips, and drinking beer, with Cate Blanchett

Three bloggers I am tagging:
- the Poeta
- Ktrion
- the V-Monster
(and a fourth: HypoCoffee)

I'd also like to be sitting on the couch eating chips w/Cate Blanchett. Lounging on the beach while sipping mai tais with Angelina Jolie would also be very nice.

Mahal,

I waited for you at home with the chips and beer but you never showed. I called your office and they said you left for a meeting in Los Baņos. I'm not going to be treated like this! It's over!

Dear Cate,

Sorry -- Scarlett's on the phone. What was that again?

Thanks for the tag - how is that supposed to work? My blog software didn't notify me of any taggage.

Buffalo Street?? I've been there! I knew someone who lived on that street.
