Music (listening and playing), Movies (watching and watching people make them), walking all over New York, reading on the subway, watching little kids laugh, reveling in the small things in life.....living la dolce vita.
I'd like to meet:
people. Period. It's a disease I have. I like to talk to new people and strangers. Somehow I missed that "don't talk to strangers" lesson my mom gave me.... :o) Oh and I have actually met, conversed, cried, laughed, worked or drank (or all of the above) with everyone on my friend's list. I have awesome friends!
Oh and the pr person who came up with his speech...brilliant!
