horror illustration, russian folk music, gypsy folk music, my russian children's books and matroshky, dia de los muertos, Chopin, piano, fat cats and almond butter.
all of it
The Adventures of Baron Munchhousen, Hook, Ginger Snaps, Adaptation, The Royal Tenenbaums, Pirates of the Carribean, the Indiana Jones series, Romeo and Juliet (yeah yeah i know....and yes the one with Leonardo de Caprio and Claire Danes), Trainspotting, Harry Potter, Death to Smoochy, The Wall, Ice Age, Amelie, Sid and Nancy, LA Story, the Hot Shots series, Freddie Cruger movies, Never Ending Story, Pretty in Pink, theres more, but i cant think of them at the moment. I LOVE horror movies at 2am when everyone else is asleep...but i cannot watch The Excorcist. Nope, will not watch it. I used to have nightmares as a kid about being possessed. Too scary.
Travel channel and Animal Planet are probably the channels i watch most. But if Roseanne's on im probably watching it.
R.I.P. Kurt Vonnegut. I like novels from the beat era more than the poetry...Im reading something different every month, i like variety these days.
My parents and the rest of my family for immigrating to the U.S. for a better life. My mom for teaching me piano, and Mr. Kandinov who let me apprentice him as a painter for so long when i was a kid. Anybody that sacrificed to do what they truly love for a living.
