I love to go to rock shows, plan parties, and decorate my future home. I spend a lot of time with my boyfriend, Travis, and my friends. Due largely to Trav's mad skills in the kitchen I have become a food snob of sorts. However, I love Asian food (Japanese and Thai especially) and can recommend some great spots in Dallas. I also like to travel- my favorite trips, and music of all kinds is a huge interest. I like to act, sing and dance and do some local shows now and then. I like to play softball and go camping. The best camp trip has been the chili cook-off in Terlingua. Well, that is a start...
Charlie Chaplin, John Lennon, Abe Lincoln, Audrey Hepburn, Lewis Carroll, Mark Twain, Ray Charles, (too bad they're dead), J.D. Salinger, Ewan McGregor, Rivers Cuomo, Ben Harper, Jon Heder, Matthew Broderick, Christian Bale, to name a few...
I have a wide range of tastes...not much rap or country as a whole in there...although sometimes some booty-music is fun to dance to...but here are some of my favorite artists: The Beatles, Weezer, Muse, ABBA (it's fun!)Mingo Fishtrap, my good buddy Darius Holbert and his various projects (check him out at www.dariustx.com), Ben Folds Five, Joss Stone (first CD), Woodbelly, The Feds, Minority, Preston Grey (local faves), Bob Schnieder/Lonelyland/Scabs, Jazz Greats: Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, Etta James, Miles Davis, etc. Nichole Nordeman, Ben Harper...Plus I like Broadway so some of my favorite shows are musicals like Wicked, RENT, Les Miserables, Gypsy, and Once Upon a Mattress. I like Tahiti 80, Corinne Bailey Rae, the Donnas, the Killers, and My Chemical Romance for rockin' out. Some good GNR is fun too for that matter...tired of reading yet? I like more, but this is good for now.
I LOVE MOVIES! Here are some of my favorites: Moulin Rouge, Napoleon Dynamite, Goonies, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Good Will Hunting, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Love Actually, Star Wars: A New Hope, Glory, Better Off Dead, Office Space, School of Rock, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Man on Fire, Life is Beautiful, I am Sam, Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, (though Molly Ringwald isn't the reason) Breakfast at Tiffany's, Stand By Me, the Usual Suspects...
I prefer to watch it on DVD: Six Feet Under, Arrested Development, Sex in the City, Grey's Anatomy, Weeds, Nip/Tuck, So you Think You Can Dance...and some HGTV/TLC for good measure.
Catcher in the Rye is my all-time favorite...
