My Interests

Ballet, Ballet, Ballet. sigh. Ballet.I love the theater and have a deep shameful passion for musical theater. I will make you listen to musicals in your car.I also keep a pretty close eye on the not-so-legitimate worlds of film and television.

Heroes:

I admire many people for their abilities; and am deeply attracted to passion and genius. Passion for something can sometimes make up for a lack of great talent. And thats genius in the broadest scope, and not the 1 dimensional genius which = smarty pants.Although I sure do like smarty pants, too!
