About Me

"I try to draw the line but it ends up running down the middle of me most of the time."

My Interests

EVERYTHING

I'd like to meet:

Robert Fulghum. Santa's reindeer. Sylvia Plath. My dad's mom. The Wicked Witch of the West. Robin Hood. Boo Radley. Emma Thompson. Whoever invented post-its (I want to shake their hand) My brother ( I have a brother!) J.R.R. Tolkien and all of his characters.....

Music:

The song of the week changes....weekly....

Movies:

I have this little game I play....I try to fit movie quotes (and sometimes song lyrics...I have a vast store of both committed to memory) into everyday conversation and see if anyone picks up on them...sometimes it works and I am thrilled to pieces, but most people just don't pay that close attention, so it usually ends up being kind of dissappointing. Some of my favorites include but are not limited to: The Royal Tennanbaums, Sense and Sensibility (my absolute favorite), Quills, Walk the Line, Igby Goes Down, Little Miss Sunshine(the newest addition to the list, if you haven't seen it run, don't walk), Vanilla Sky, The Last Samurai (for the record I think Tom Cruise is a douche and not a good actor), There are more but I either can't think of them all at the moment or I haven't seen them yet.

Television:

It's not TV. It's HBO

Books:

I have kind of a book obsession. I love being surrounded by books and if I had it my way I would live in the library at the Biltmore (although I have not seen it I hear it is right up my alley). I have this thing about buying books but then not really reading them (hey, it could be worse...there are far more detrimental addictions available....)

Heroes:

Ani DiFranco; Colbert; MYSELF, dammit

The holiday spirit.....

I just spent three hundred dollars at the grocery store.  I think I may have a problem.  Granted, I did get a lot of expensive seasonal stuff (spices, wine, a million packages of cream chees...
