Theatre, poetry, dance of any kind, red wine, the view from my back deck in Nor Cal, yellow curry, Salmon sashimi, attempting to write something worth reading, English bulldogs named Bubba, power yoga with Geo (not afraid to live, not afraid to love!), redwood trees, hummus and pita bread, people with accents, drinking milk straight from the carton, impromptu dance parties...
"Unless we feel connected to a pattern of meanings and a worldview larger than our own personal successes and failures, no matter how good we feel, we will still sense an emptiness in our lives." --Carl Jung - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "I don't like people who speak or think in terms of gaining anybody's confidence. If one's actions are honest, one does not need the predated confidence of others, only their rational perception. The person who craves a moral blank check of that kind, has dishonest intentions, whether he admits it to himself or not." --Ayn RandI edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4.. width="425" height="350" .........INDIAN THRILLER!!!!

Right now my roommate's tivoing America's Next Top Model and House...and I like to catch CSI Vegas reruns at 1am. However, I tend to notice that the amount of TV I watch is closely related to my worth as a functioning human being in society so I try to save it for roomie bonding time.
