Music:

I usually like only the first album or two that bands record. I like music that is raw and dirty; anything overproduced and slick bores me. Any music to which I can dance like crazy is allright with me.

Pretty in Pink, Dancer in the Dark, East is East, The Secret Garden, Bride and Prejudice, The Big Tease, Permanent Record, My First Mister, Head, Before Sunrise, C'est Arrive Pres de Chez Vous, Gypsey 83, 1984, Thomas in Love, Jezebel, Steel Magnolias, My Neighbor Totoro, Castles in the Sky

Television:

The Office (BBC version,) Freaks and Geeks, Angel, Carnivale, Pride and Prejudice (BBC Miniseries), The L Word, The Daily Show, The Monkees, The Idiot Box, Liquid Television, Six Feet Under, Weeds, Tales of the City

Books:

old cookbooks with lots of weird meat dishes and savory jello mold recipes, most history books, novels that allow me to escape my life, vintage fashion and photography books, diy magazines, any book in which the heroine or her close friend dies of consumption
