backpacking, reading, music, philosophical outbursts...
You Are Rowlf the Dog
Mellow and serious, you enjoy time alone cultivating your talents.
You're a cool dog, and you always present a relaxed vibe.
A talented pianist, you can play almost anything - especially songs by Beethoven.

The Muppet Personality Test
anyone with mad ideas and outrageous laughs
music that makes me think... or takes my brain on vacation... phish, the dead, jerry on his own, john prine, dar williams, wilco, flying burrito brothers, flaming lips, storytellers and outlaws, anyone live who makes me wanna move it!
pan's labyrinth, motorcycle diaries, hitchhiker's guide, anything i have to read as i watch or quote at happy hour! also, strangely enough, i've discovered that i love documentaries about american history..... must be getting old. (the war series by ken burns.... yes i watched it all- twice)
pbs. law and order, even though we don't get that channel anymore..... and whatever my husband's watching.
i read constantly and voraciously. cereal boxes, shampoo ingredients, pain reliever side effects.... and actual books on occasion, also! i teach reading, so there's usually fifteen books scattered around the house, mostly teen fluff, but some are jus for me.... i love david sedaris, carl hiassen, maya angelou, terry pratchett,rita mae brown, jodi picoult, anything melissa gives me.
my mom, for knowing how to make it funny... my nephew, for taking it at breakneck exciting speed!
