Oh. And the OTHER Yin Yang Twin. You know, the one with the funny hand.
And I'm ALWAYS in need of some good Wingmen.
Gareth Asher~ "Bathe Me in Failure" from his upcoming CD. This song make me feel like sexytime.
I absolutely LOVE music... I mean EVERYTHING!!! My iPod is a bucket o' surprises. Anything from Sinatra to Joe Firstman to Ryan Adams to country to cheesy 80's music. Hold the metal and ghetto rap...I like to read, mostly non-fiction and classic lit, but I'm not into getting together over coffee and discussing what Faulkner was thinking as he wrote "As I lay Dying"... I don't need coffee and a turtleneck to make me feel smart.I also (would) love to travel the world...

Ninja Nick in full effect.
Anything that is well written with a good soundtrack will entertain me, but some movies inspire me. Movies like Garden State, Moonlight Mile, Good Will Hunting, Vanilla Sky, Nobody's Fool, Walk the Line, A River Runs Through It, Bagger Vance, Fight Club, Swingers, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Alfie and Big Fish are a few of my faves... OH!!! I also am a sucker for cheesy Christmas movies and Hallmark Hall of Fame movies. I know. I'm sensitive.
I'm addicted to the Amazing Race. Seriously... like I need to go to a group. I also love the little known series "Ed" that ran for awhile. I try to catch Scrubs and Grey's Anatomy, and I also LOVE Ken Burns Civil War documentary and CBS Sunday Morning.
Right now I'm revisiting Kerouac's "On The Road". Always a good read. I'm thinking of writing a novel just as good...
ME*.
*As sad as it is, I don't really have any heroes. I can look at someone's life and wish to be like them... but I'd never want to BE THEM. If I were them, well then I wouldn't be here... and that would just cancel out that I ever was here, therefore erasing everything that I lacked and wanted to gain by examining and overtaking said "hero's" life. And then if I WERE my "hero," I'd have everything I ever wanted and would think of myself as perfect, and that would lead to my friends calling me "cocky" and accuse me of being a "self righteous PRICK." So I would then go to a bar where I would see the present day me, who never (okay...rarely) is called such horrible things, and the present day me would then become my "hero's" hero. So I guess I do have a "hero." Me. Well, I guess I'll put "ME" then...
