I like, in no particular order: Eating icecream. Hearing from old friends. Picking scabs. Cooking big meals. wondering what it would be like to win the lottery. painting. knitting. sewing. planning big projects that I may or may not ever finish. listening to good music in the car. listening to other people's stories. taking long lazy walks at night with my husband. learning. singing. napping. hanging out with my family. World of Warcraft. laying on a freshly vacuumed floor. the smell of my clean laundry. junk stores and antique malls. Weekends. Getting dressed up semi-nicely. Shopping with Mom. remembering. watching my cats do retarded things. Indian food. Worrying about what kind of parent I'll be. Worrying about being able to BE a parent. Sitting here and playing spider solitaire. Onigiri. Listening to audiobooks while I knit
Ninjas! I'd also like to meet David Bowie, please, and John Krasinski. I wouldn't mind if Kyle MacLachlan knocked on the door, either.

I'm kind of going through a 19th Century Romance phase right now. Some of my favorite authors are: Herman Hesse, Jack Kerouac, Hunter S. Thompson, Fyodor Doestofsky, Douglas Adams, Diana DiPrima...I like mostly classic literature, some of the beat generation, a few things that are more modern- I like the Harry Potter books-eh, I dunno. If I'm bored enough, I'll read pretty much anything.
my mom, Saint Joan de Arc, Yoko Ono, Jackie O
