Television:
I watch a lot of educational tv. My favorite channels are TLC, Discovery Health, Animal Planet, PBS (especially Frontline and American Experience) and the History Channel. Yes, I am a dork. However, I do try to balance out the dorkiness by watching Danicing With the Stars. I will never stop watching re-runs of Sex and the City or Friends. Some of my other faves include: Grey's Anatomy, Sopranos, Freaks & Geeks, Ugly Betty, Nip/Tuck, Law and Order: SVU, Scrubs, and CSI.
Books:
Favorite books of all time: Catcher in the Rye, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Bluest Eye, Secret Lives of Bees. Favorite recent reads: A Fine Balance, The Kite Runner, Middlesex, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Good in Bed. Currently reading: a Scottish romance novel that Sarah gave me.
Heroes:
Anyone who has made a difference in the world. Why are people obsessed with money? And why do people not care about each other??
