And soon to come from House of Liu, Di Di and Mei Mei!And felt plushies! My Paper Crane makes plushies that look like food… cake, donuts, grilled cheese, bananas… and the one I just got… a 5” plush Smore!I guess I also try to stay active… I’ve been rock climbing indoors and outdoors for almost seven years now. I’ve had my on and off years, but am currently trying to get in shape for spring and summer climbing outdoors. I’ve taken amazing climbing trips to Skaha, Smith, Red Rocks… and good ol’ Exit 38 and Si.Ok, I was a big fat liar before - I am a girly girl. I love shoes, especially black patent leather shoes, Louis Vuitton hand bags, Harveys Seatbelt Bags, and anything pink and covered with Swarovski crystals. Oh, and I also get $100 hair cuts.

I'd like to meet:

Margaux is my bestest friend in the whole wide world. I can't wait to meet her new son Vince!

Music:

George Michael. George Michael. George Michael.

Movies:

The most amazing movie I have seen in a long time is Pan's Labyrinth. I don't know much about movies. I just rely on Dan to tell me what to watch.

Television:

Battlestar Galactica, is it bad that I root for the cylons?; Ugly Betty, even though every episode makes me cry; CSI, but only Las Vegas; and of course, Heroes.

Books:

Currently reading Ironside: A Modern Faery's Tale by Holly Black. I heart books. I read my favorites over and over and over again, sometimes right after I finish the last page I will flip back to the first page. There are only two books I can't seem to finish - War & Peace and In the Beginning was the Command Line.When I was in grad school, all I read were text books, case studies, and research papers. To give my brain break, I started fantasy/sci fi, but really only the ones I found in the young adult section. Now I'm a huge fan of Artemis Fowl, the Series of Unfortunate Events, and the Abhorsen Trilogy. And I can't forget Harry Potter.On a daily basis I use at least one of the following: dictionary, thesaurus, AP Stylebook, or The Managed Healthcare Dictionary.

Heroes:

My mother, even though I dread becoming just like her.
