I've Got to Fly to St. Somewhere

About Me

I got to meet Kirk Herbstreit. I got to go to College GameDay at Autzen. I am happy.

My Interests

Travel, running, wine, reading, listening to my XM Radio, creating the perfect "playlist" on my iPod, spending time with friends and family. I'd love to say golf and baseball, but I rarely do either now that I live back in Portland. I'll have to work on that. And SCUBA whenever I get the chance which is not often enough. And from August 1st to January 8th I live for College Football.

I'd like to meet:

Old friends with whom I've lost touch. I've lived all around the country and it seems I've lost contact with people I care about.

Music:

I love it all. Well, execpt rap/ganster rock, it is too angry for me. I love my iPod and XM radio. The people I will buy tickets to see live include: Jimmy Buffett, Seal, REM, BNL and Michael Buble. Don't get me wrong, I love live music, but I am more chosey now on who I see live.

Movies:

Hunt for Red October, Somewhere in Time, This is Spinal Tap, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Best in Show, any scene in Anchorman with "Brick", Swingers, Glory, The Departed, The Hurricane and Pete's Dragon

Television:

Oh dear, do I really confess? My most favorite show is "ESPN's College Gameday - Football." Then in no particular order: American Idol, 24, Heroes, Entourage, Project Runway, Boy Meet's Grill, Flip This House and The Office.

Books:

"An Embarrassment of Mangoes", "Running with Scissors", "The Charm School", "Lonesome Dove", "The Fountainhead", "Tales from Maragaritaville", "To Kill a Mockingbird", "Wicked", "Anna Karenenia", "A Prayer for Owen Meany", "War and Peace", "The Electric Koolaid Acid Test", Eleven Crazy Monkeys".

Heroes:

Maynard -- for all he's overcome and how he inspires and supports me and others in his life. Grandma -- she was a strong, stubborn woman who truly earned the right to be that way. Mom -- everyone loves her because she loves everyone.
