Music:

I listen to just about anything.

Movies:

My favorite Movie list is huge. I don't even know where to start.

Just about anything with Johnny Depp.
Wizard of Oz, Grease and Lean On Me are all time favorites.
The list goes on.

Television:


We don't watch much TV, as we don't have cable, but when we do my picks include Behind The Music type stuff and forensic type stuff.

I like 21 Jump Street, Smallville, Star Trek (except the original and Enterprise), Firefly and some of the "Teen Nick" shows including Zoey 101, Drake and Josh, Ned's Declassified, and Hannah Montana. I know, I am a dork, but what can I say, I've got kids, lol!

Books:

LOVE to read!
Harry Potter (I can read all of them over and over again)

I'm a Gryffindor!
Series Of Unfortunate Events
Just about anything by Stephen King
The Mode Series by Peirs Anthony

Heroes:


My mom.
A single mom rasing two kids helping each one deal with the death of their fathers early in their lives (at 4 1/2 and at 13), then taking on step children who's father doesn't know how to be a father. She is an awesome, awesome woman.

A Native American grandfather was talking to his grandson about how he felt about a tragedy. He said, " I feel as if I have two wolves fighting in my heart. One wolf is the vengeful, angry one. The other wolf is the loving, compassionate one. The grandson asked, "Which one will win the fight in your heart?" The Grandfather answered, "The one I feed."
