Shopping, shopping, and more shopping! (That one was for my Cornerstone Crew). Seriously, though, I actually do enjoy a good dose of retail therapy- shoes, and fine perfume top the list. There's also traveling, good drinks, good food and good company. Oh, and I have an interest in the arts... verbal, visual and otherwise. And what's life without new challenges and experiences... they keep things exciting.
Intelligent, progressive people. I also love hearing from people with whom I've lost touch. I have no interest in meeting myspace jump-offs, or whatever you're calling yourselves these days.
Good music transcends genre...

My parents, my grandmothers, Joan Rivers, Karen Walker, Dharma and anyone who's found a way to actually live in a world where most people seem to merely survive.
