About Me

"All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable." -Fran Lebowitz

My Interests

I like gossip, avocados, cheesy popcorn, and books.

I'd like to meet:

Peter Gabriel, so I can kick him for Sledgehammer.

Music:

I proudly know the words to every bad country song out there.

Movies:

The movie "The Secret" is the worst movie ever. If anyone tells you otherwise, that person is lying. Runners up for worst movie ever: American Beauty, Lost in Translation, the Squid and the Whale and the very, very creepy Apocalypto. Movies I will watch over and over again: Stranger than Fiction, Age of Innocence, Zoolander, Life Is Beautiful, Hook, and Dirty Dancing.

Television:

I am an unabashed fan of the Gilmore Girls. I also love Heroes, The Office, and Prison Break. I watch Lost, but it is seriously ticking me off these days. What is going on?

Books:

Books I will read over and over again: The Little Prince, His Dark Materials (Golden Compass, Amber Spyglass, Subtle Knife), We the Living, Still Life with Woodpecker, Rebecca

Heroes:

My friend Julia for once listing "watching TV" as a hobby on her job application, and of course...Bailey's mom.

Monopoly

I was reading Triplefinger's copy of Reason Magazine today and learned something interesting. Until 1987, the Soviet Union banned the game Monopoly, presumably because of the whole "capitalism is evil...
