Doing stuff with my dog and my friends which may include: making ART, playing fetch, DRINKING (which I now realize is not an activity but a distraction), learning but not using my education, sk8boarding, BIKES, surfing, bowling, not following through, and bullriding.
Punk-surf-indie-blues-rock, songs about social change, philosophy, art, politics, history and of course relationships: the Clash, Elvis Costello, Billy Bragg, Fugazi, Jawbreaker/Jets to Brazil, Bad Religion, the Specials, the Cramps, Social Distortion, the Queers, Screeching Weasel, Bouncing Souls, face to face, Jonathan Richman, Man or Astroman, the Pixies . . .
I am a sucker for comedy, romance, dialogue, and cinematography: Amelie, Eternal Sunshine, Stranger than Fiction, Garden State, Harold and Maude, the Big Lebowski, Heathers, John Cusack movies but especially Say Anything and High Fidelity, Officespace, Bill Murray . . .
TWIN PEAKS!!!! Family Guy, the Simpsons, Cartoons and PBS (i guess it's called OPB out here).
. . . I like books that make me re-read entire passages because of the language or imagery. I also like books that broaden my understanding of life and make me laugh out loud while reading on public transportation. Oh yeah, dictionaries, and atlases!
