MUSIC - all kinds, as long as it's good :) (And yes, I believe I do have taste... at least I think I do. Well my dog doesn't run from the room when I play most of the music I love - so that should be an indicator, right?), Reading - books of any and all kinds Travel - I've been most places in Europe - My mother is from there so half my family is there. I really want to see the rest of the world because it truly is magnificent and it's much bigger and simultaneously smaller than anyone's imagination can admit.
YOU!
