I'd like to meet:

you! as long as you don't fall into the rapist, abusive, or serial killer categories. :)

Music:

i love it! there is a time, place and mood for almost every type of music, and i enjoy it all...with the exception of the screaming-hoarse throat genre. I'm a lover of words, so being able to make out lyrics is always a plus.

Movies:

yes!!! love 'em! drama, comedy, romance, suspense... i'll pass on the sci-fi and the slasher, though, thanks! some of my fav movies: Snatch, Braveheart, Patriot, Momento, Fight Club, The Departed, Good Will Hunting, Along Came a Spider, Dead Poet's Society, Wild Hearts Can't be Broken, Life is Beautiful, Les Miserables, Breakfast Club, Camp Nowhere, Dirty Dancing, Princess Bride, That Thing You Do, Maverick, Beauty and the Beast, You've Got Mail, Return to Me, The Notebook, Raising Helen, Stepmom, Shall We Dance, One Fine Day, While You Were Sleeping, Rigoletto, The Painted Veil, My Best Friend's Wedding...the list goes on and on... come on, you know im bad with favorites. ;)

Television:

The Office, Lost, reality tv shows...

Books:

i eat them up! i used to get in trouble as a child for reading late into the night, during class...any opportunity i could get! i enjoy a wide variety of genres, but especially historical fiction and anything counseling/psychology related. books are kinda like a drug for me; walking into a bookstore is dangerous. i often leave with something....or many somethings. :) they just are such easily justifiable purchases, books... :) Can I just say that I love that Beast gives Beauty a library? amazing... i'd melt at a bookshelf. :)

Heroes:

Jesus Christ, Aunt Dede
