I am here for Friends

My Interests

Music:

i stopped listening to music a while ago. i'd like to start again but I hardly know how to begin. i used to go out and see live music several nights a week but now I'm a lame-ass young professional who has to wake up early. and i can't listen to music at work because I'm too ADHD for that shit. it would help to have an ipod that worked so that i could listen in transit. either that or i'm going to have to go back to working in a kitchen where I can rock out.

Movies:

when I was a kid I would say my favorite movie was the Abyss. I'm not sure if i would agree with that assessment today but I will admit that I still like action, sci-fi, and horror flicks. I also enjoy art-house stuff. one movie that stands out as especially amazing was Before Night Falls. If you haven't seen it, do.

Television:

i watch a lot of the daily show and the colbert report. my favorite show was the west wing but sadly, that's over. i really like TV documentaries about natural disasters such as the possibility of an asteroid hitting the earth or the polar icecaps melting and sending Europe into an ice age. i can't get enough of that crap.

Books:

i hardly ever read books. magazines, blogs, newspapers, and the internet are more my speed. Still, of the fiction books I have read, my two favorites are Lolita and Eva Luna. Those masterpieces were simultaneously beautiful and impossible to put down.

Heroes:

so many people I know who seem to be able to accomplish all kindsa stuff without screwing it up. you know the types - they go to school full time while holding down a job and raising children, all while managing to go out a couple nights a week and work on creative side projects. how do those people do it?!
