Anything Jesus or pseudo-intellectual or artistic. When the three are combined its sweet booty (in regards to piracy). I love to create in the kitchen--cooking I call it. Humbly I say to you that I'm not bad if you love food that sticks to your ribs and smells like the south. My heart skips a beat when I find a good band so digging up new music know one knows of is fun. I'm a bit of a workout queen. I definitely don't have a six pack or anything but Bally's houses drops of my stress on various machines. Kind of a gross thought actually. Going to public places and listening to people is always fun. I love doing things where I can just be a sponge and soak up those granola artsy moments in this world. I love movies and theater (pronounced with a British accent). My theory is God made man, woman, saw that it was good but didn't stop til he created DVDs with behind the scenes and making of segments. Aaaahhhh. However for a theatre major I am quite theatrically illiterate, which I'm working on. I love to learn or better put retain. I think I'll forever be in school because that is the only place us Lazy Lacys can be forced to get access to new books and random facts and interpretations. What else, Salsa dancing and line dancing is fun...I used to knit but was starting to hypochondriac arthritis. I love to play hostess and just let people grub down and fellowship. Nothing is better that just belting a good worship song. I love to sleep, work hard, put on baggy pjs, eat a slice of cold pizza and just crash and see what happens. This is kinda theraputic...somehow a computer screen makes me feel like someone is interested and in awe of my personality. Oh, how technology feeds our vanity.
I'd like to meet:
Anyone who will not admit their personality is classified as "random" because of the fact the the state of randomness has become a conformist mentality in our society and therefore not trully "random"
Music:
Now a girl can show off...I'll admit I have no shame in no knowing who someone is but I gotta learn somehow. I'm over liking everything I hear and you have a beef with me about not loving your fav band then Jesus loves you so I will too. My first love is Blue October-the most catharctic concert experience of my life. I'll admit I love 80's cover remakes, Old 97s (yes someone will ask me the question someday), The Ataris, Jack Johnson, Chronic Future, Shane and Shane, Thirsty Child, Shaun McDonald, relient K can be clever but I'm too much about what goes on behind the music to care, Toadies, Yellowcard and Hoobastank(yes I was a fan long before Ocean Avenue and the Reason all you TRL slaves!), Marc Broussard, Peter Cincotti, Jet, John Legend, Grits, Weezer, Scissor Sisters, Outkast, Pink Floyd...Also Mahler, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, and Mendelsohn just do something to me. Really anything I can associate an emotion with. That is what music is for isn't it? I'm beginning to narrow it out of Alternative to Alternative Country etc. Oh how labels and categories vex me. And to ice the cake I'm finally being exposed to this thing called the hip and hop?
Movies:
Fav is Bandits. Lady and the Tramp, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid, 28 days Later, Donnie Darko, American History X, Army of Darkness (I have met Bruce Campbell yes) Moulin Rouge (Any Baz Lurhman film because I must be supportive to the father of my children), Serendipity (ANY John Cusack), How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Return of the Jedi(so there are actual Ligers now but where are the Ewoks!), Joe Versus the Volcano, You've Got Mail,etc. I watch movies but I listen to them more. Try listening to a Knight's Tale sometime. Tripletts of Bellville, Life is Beautiful. If you want to here my Texas accent come out, which only happens when I'm livid then give me a predictable movie like...ummm...Cough+Walk to Remember...or...Cough+The Notebook. Clever is the key. Movies are meant not to entertain but to change society whether through language or satire. Hup! Tripped on my soap box.
Television:
I haven't had the time to watch tv lately but in order of importance--Inside the Actor's Studio, Rob & Big, America's Next Top Model, The Office...Food Network
Books:
I'm more plays than books. Cave Dweller's by Saroyan is weird and surprisingly clever, Six Characters in Search of an Author by Luigi Pirandello will blow your mind like only Charlie Kaufman can. Women in Flames by Tina Howe. Luv David Ives! Great Expectations, Oliver Twist, Lord of the Rings, Jules Verne, Hadassah ( you will never see Esther the same again). Cry, the Beloved Country by Alan Paton. The Plague by Camus. The Sacred Romance and Wild at Heart by John Eldredge. Silence by Shushako Endo. Aristotle, I will have Shakespeare's children. Freakin' sonnets! An Actor Prepares by Stanislakvsky hits the spot. Blink, Revelations, i love poets too but it's been so long since I read it that I honestly can't think of the names with out digging them up. I'm really into anything metaphorical or conceited ;)
Heroes:
I'd love to meet Walt Disney (seriously think about what he did in context with the culture and technology of the time). Mrs. Bunny Beall, she is the quintiscential (sp? meh) southern lady that I aspire to be. Any ugly actress that is a good actress, to me an actress doesn't look like one she just does her job. Get ready for sappy, my dog Sam. He was the only person yes I said person that has succeeded showing me true unconditional love (in the Christ-like sense). Sounds stupid but it's just myspace. Um, I am fascinated by Esther. She has the kind of story that I would hope to have. I see so much of me and what I should and could be. Do I really need to say Jesus I mean SERIOUSLY...found my knight in shining armor
