Old friends and making new ones would be great!!! Anything else is a bonus.
I basically like anything with a melody. In my current listening rotation you'll find: Gabriel Mann, Invitro, Straight Line Stitch, Until June, The Click Five, Coconut Records, Ludo, Army of Freshman, Across Five Aprils, Jay Nash, AM, Tina Dico, Crash Romeo, My Farewell. How's that for a random list? I own so many albums, cds and cassettes - most are in storage.... I get new music at work everyday so my collection is constantly expanding in new directions.
I love movies! These are some of my favorites: Little Miss Sunshine, Time Bandits, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Chicago, Bridget Jones Diary, Fargo, All the Peter Sellers Pink Panther movies, My Favorite Year, Rent, Singing in the Rain, Taxi Diver, An American in Paris, The Thin Man, Bells are Ringing, What's Up, Doc?, The In-Laws, Mean Streets, Raising Arizona, My Man Godfrey, The Big Leibowski, Being John Malcovich. I'll see anything in the theatre. I love the escape!
Big fan of veggin' in front of those interchangable detective shows.... CSI, Law and Order, Medium, etc. Especially late at night when the insomnia kicks in. I also kinda like the chick shows: Desperate Housewives, Men In Trees, Ugly Betty. I'm over reality TV but I do think my little sister Rachel and I would make great Amazing Race contestants.
I read anything and everything. Love anything by William Faulkner, Ernest Hemingway, John Irving, Michael Crichton (ok a couple are crappy), Stephen King (also has some crappy ones), did the whole Ann Rice thing, Biographies, History based novels, currently reading: The Geographer's Library and The Things They Carried. I own a zillion books. I've banned myself from bookstores for awhile.
My mom and my sister.... long story
