I work hard for my money. I'll sleep when I'm dead.
music (listening to it, writing it, playing it, going to shows, playing my own shows); books (I read incessantly); movies (when I'm not reading, I'm movie-ing); running (I'm training for a half marathon in March); anything historic (I love museums and I always read those historic landmark thingys); camping, hiking, and canoeing (although I rarely get to go these days); browsing musical instrument shops; crosswords

Movie that's blown me away most recently: The 25th Hour with Edward Norton, Barry Pepper, and Phillip Seymour Hoffman (directed by Spike Lee). This movie fucked me up. -- I think my favorite movie of all time would have to be The Shawshank Redemption followed closely by the Godfather trilogy. Oh, and anything by the Cohen Brothers.
In the words of Vincent Vega, "I don't watch T.V."
I always have several books going so here's what I'm reading right now: I just finished "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look At the Right," by Al Franken. If you believe in the "liberal bias in the media" myth, you should definitely read this book. I've also gotten hooked into the Dark Tower series, although I swore I would never read Stephen King again (his endings wound me). My good buddy Wayne has convinced me and so far so good. At least it's a really long epic, so if the ending is bad, I have a stay of exectution. I got a crap load of books for Christmas so I'll be busy for while. Stay tuned...
