Most of all, spending time with my beautiful family! Other than that, traveling, partying, going to concerts , dancing and watching dances (especially modern), reading, taking pictures , hanging out with friends, going to sports events, occasionally playing with our XBox/PS2/DS/Wii, collecting anything Disney , getting too attached to every animal I see, learning something new, and spending an unhealthy amount of time on the computer.
I also enjoy the outdoors (minus things that bite), soft blankets, crane machines, white tigers , zebra print, lava lamps, board games, holiday decorations, roller coasters, healthy-ish food, people dressed as cartoon characters, addictive/pointless websites like this... and anything else that's fun and/or shiny ...

Depends on my mood... but I guess I'll go with The Crow , The Lord of the Rings, Queen of the Damned, Harry Potter, Serenity , Fight Club, Star Wars, 100 Girls, Phantom of the Opera, Pirates of the Caribbean, Underworld, Garden State, Baseketball, The Big Lebowski, V for Vendetta, and all Kevin Smith movies. There are definitely times for John Cusack films though, and Bridget Jones's Diary... maybe even a little Dirty Dancing (I'm not ashamed)... And if it's funny or has vampires in it, it's probably a winner.
Veronica Mars , Family Guy, The Simpsons, Friends, Futurama, all of the cancelled ones written by Joss Whedon (Buffy, Angel, Firefly), NHL Dallas Stars games, Scrubs, Lost, Sex and the City, Gilmore Girls, and whatever else catches my interest. My guiltiest pleasures include the occasional moments of reality shows (Beauty and the Geek, Girls Next Door), bad dating programs (Elimidate, Next), or the Disney Channel (Boy Meets World reruns, Hannah Montana). Shhh...
Interview with the Vampire, Ender's Game, Pride and Prejudice, Catcher in the Rye, Dragonriders of Pern series, The Tipping Point, and I'll never be too old for The Chronicles of Narnia (a favorite since 3rd grade) or the Harry Potter series (a more recent addiction)... but now I mostly get to read business textbooks or a one-year-old's picture books... Yeah, Goodnight Moon is becoming a classic.
Captain Planet, he's our hero.
Gonna take pollution down to zero...
