Anything with Johnny Depp, Ben Stiller, or Adam Sandler. John Cusack, Jack Black, Owen Wilson, and Will Ferrell are also favorites. I also like old stuff like Abbott & Costello. I told you I have a retarded sense of humor! Thanks Dad! :)

Television:

I don't have cable, so it's movies for me these days. I do have seasons of Macgyver, Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Pete & Pete that I watch frequently. 3

Books:

The Bible; there's always something relevant in there to help me through my day. A Separate Peace, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Purpose Driven Life, The Cirque du Freak series, The Beach House, Grimm's Fairy Tales...

Heroes:

Mr. T when I was younger. I even tried to cut my hair like his once. Then Macgyver came along and I was in love! Mullet and all! Tinkerbell is AWESOME! If I could pick any character I'd want to be... it'd be her. :) JESUS! Who listens to me when others won't and who loves me when even I don't. :)

My Blog
