Music, clubs/parties, music, reading, music, attempting to learn to spin records (anyone want to be my mentor??), music, yoga/pilates and meditation, music, and MUSIC.
Oh yeah, and DANCING DANCING DANCING! All fucking night until my feet bleed and my bad knee is a bruised, swollen, kneecap-popping mess. The dance floor is the only place where I can be myself - all my problems melt away, my body/mind dissolves, and I know that I am truly beautiful.
***DANCE LIKE NO ONE'S WATCHING!***
Music:
MUSIC IS THE BEST THING IN LIFE.

Best movie EVER: .. width="425" height="350" ..
I'm a huge movie buff, but it's all about my DVDs. Haven't seen a decent movie in the theatre for years.
Television:
I currently don't have TV either, as well as internet and I'm loving it. Netflix is the shit. Currently my after-work routine consists of mixed drinks and the guiltiest of guilty pleasures - DVD episodes of the OC. Yay for pointless drama!
Books:
***CURRENTLY READING: Generation X. Forget the author off-hand, but it's good.***
Also, House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski, anything by Kurt Vonnegut, Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, writings on religion and peace by Thich Nhat Hahn and Father John Dear, and Clockwork Orange - Matt, I STILL swear that you borrowed that from me and never returned it! :)
The literature-hungry dorky English major in me is always looking for new pages to devour. If anyone has read something that's totally blown your mind, point me in the right direction.

All my friends. In the past couple of months I've realized just how awesome most of the people I cared about in my life are; thank you for everything you do for me. Especially Andy and Melanie. You guys are my angels and I'm thankful for you both every day.
