Movies:

I grew up watching recordedoffTV versions of Revenge of the Nerds and Romancing the Stone. By the time I was eight I could recite both movies. I then moved on to Goonies, the Champ and Footloose. And from there, Raising Arizona, The Shining (my mom's favorite movie along with Alien), Hairspray, and Girls Just Want to Have Fun(I love to dance). And finally, my husband introduced me to some classics: Blazing Saddles, Army of Darkness, and Amadeus.

Television:

Freaks and Geeks (I love Sam), The Office (I love Dwight), 30 Rock (I love . . . ), My Name is Earl, The Bachelor, House, CSI (sometimes), The Amazing Race (my pick was the beauty queens), Lost (another sometimes), 30 days, Mr. Belvedere (I love WESLEY), Muppet Babies, Seinfeld, Punky Brewster, Saved By The Bell(I love Slater) and three or four more.

Books:

My first book was Where the Wild Things Are. My last book was the Book Thief. In between is a blur.

My Blog
