Oh Geez Louise

About Me

I currently spend my days learning the finer arts of Blackjack. The state of California is going to license me as a "gaming associate" after which, I'm banned from gambling in state casinos. As it turns out, I'm already banned from the casinos. Vegas, anyone?

Other than that, I live in LA and I swear I'm trying to like it. It has its good qualities. I just don't have the time nor the patience to sit through traffic to enjoy these "good qualities."

My Interests

I like bacon, hamburgers, malt liquor, Super Nintendo. More specifically, bacon and cheese ciabatta burgers from Jack in the Box while drinking a 40 of OE and playing Link to the Past. Also, I'm terribly addicted to Wario's Woods.

I'd like to meet:

I'm not gonna add you if I don't know you personally. I hate myspace celebrities.

Music:

I like all sorts of stuff and stuff. I don't have a particular favorite genre or group, it's all kinda just randomly picked up here and there. I hate music snobs though.

Movies:

Snakes on a Plane is my new favorite. I even paid full price for an advanced screening. Alright I'll admit it. I'm secretly cheesy and really loved Eternal Sunshine. And for whatever reason, The Rock is exciting every time I watch it. Not to be confused with The Rock in The Rundown, who's just such a badass. Never mind the acting ability (or lack thereof). I really liked Gattaca and both Shrek movies. And Elf. It's the only Will Ferrell movie I like. I haven't gotten around to watching all those pop cult classics that's suppose to make me a whole person. I realize how severely lacking I am because I have yet to see Reservoir Dogs beyond the tipping scene.

Television:

I love tv. I'm a big fan of the Bravo network and the Project Runway and Top Chef series. I watched an episode of Grey's Anatomy for the first time last night, and I've just been converted. I like Law & Order, but I especially love the SVU series. I like the gory plastic surgery shows on TLC and Discovery. I love What Not to Wear and occasionally when I'm bored, Little People, Big World and Miami Ink. I use to watch Real World, but now I'm more of a RW/RR challenge junky. I can't get enough of Ace of Cakes on the Food Network. I use to be a fan of Gilmore Girls. It's awful now, but I'm too far in to the series that I have to see it to the end, which is probably the story of most shows anyway. Including Charmed, which I also followed. I quote Friends probably more so than I realize. My roommates and friends and I use to get together every week, drinking cheap bottles of wine while watching Sex and the City on TBS. I started going through the seasons on DVD so I could see it uncensored, but I've only gotten through season 4.

Books:

I hate classics. I like browsing the new fiction shelf at Borders and the SPCA thrift store, where I can get a book for $1 a piece. I like autobiographies and airplane books. Every time I fly out, I stop at the bookstore and pick up something new, even if I'm already in the middle of something else. I read two or three books at a time and then none at all. I'm currently in my Gregory Maguire phase. Before that was David Sedaris. Wicked is playing at the Pantages Theatre and I'd like to see it, (I work for Wicked now) although I enjoyed Son of a Witch more. I like books the same way I like movies. I've seen a lot of movies and read a lot of books, but I never see/read the things I'm suppose to. I do like comparing books to their movie versions.
