My Interests

A lot. Except for doing math in my head, I'm interested in most things

I'd like to meet:

"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."--Anais Nin

Music:

songs i've never heard before and like

Movies:

Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me, Holy Smoke,The Sound of Music, Life Is Beautiful,Funky Monks, Don't Look Back, Goonies, Amelie, Sliding Doors, The Princess and the Warrior, Dream With The Fishes, Six Degrees of Seperation, Dazed and Confused, True Romance, Adventures in Babysitting, Party Girl, Beautiful Girls, Frailty, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Point of No Return, School of Rock, and...this is sort of the same as the music thing.

Television:

I can certainly live without TV, but if its there...I like to have the Today Show on in the background in the morning. Past TV favorites include: Little House on the Prarie, X-Files, Twilight Zone, Seinfeld...a lot of other ones (Sesame Street? Reading Rainbow? yes, that is going way back), there are more favorites but I can't think of them right now. I don't schedule things around TV, but I enjoy it when I enjoy it. If I see something I like I will hold out and rent it when it comes on DVD. Six Feet Under is one example of an entire TV show I rented. I would also like to own this entire TV show on DVD if anyone wants to give me a present. That was a good TV show. They had a slump, but knew exactly when and how to get out of it (kinda...seasons 4 and 5 dragged...). Maybe I'm more fascinated with TV and its effects on people than the actual TV shows. I highly recommend Six Feet Under. Okay, wrapping this up now, I wish TLC would take that stupid show about midgets off the air. Not because they are midgets but because they are boring. We get it. Midgets are real people.

Books:

Brautigan, Hemingway, Unbearable Lightness of Being, The History of Love, I Know This Much Is True, Through the Looking Glass, White Oleander, astrology books, Tess Gallagher, Raymond Carver, Sonnet 145, What Do Smurfs Do All Day, Hanif Kureishi, Another Roadside Attraction, In Cold Blood, Tuck Everlasting, I'm going to write a book about Poetic Stimulators someday, Docherty's "Learning Lessons From Waco".

Heroes:

All nice people, but especially gay aerobics/group exercise instructors that make me smile and dance and laugh at the gym. Also allykelly, even though she's not always nice.

If you live in the Chicago area

This coming Wednesday, you might want to consider going to this show. "Oh Yeah" is really good, I'm not sure if their website does them justice (better live, is my opinion). And I'll be there, and I...

To JANE Magazine

I'm not accusing you of plagarism, but I couldn't help but notice that the "Peep Show" of the March issue bears a striking resemblance (sp?) to ME, and MYSPACE. Come on, a photo of Britney Spears hair...
