About Me

www.LisaHuey.com
I honestly only add people I know and have met in person, with very few exceptions... so hey, you, that 47-year-old in rural Russia? You can just not friend request me. Thanks.
This goes for you garage bands 2000 miles away in Kentucky (or the like) with no shows out of your hometown.
I'd say that I'm sorry, but I'm really not. Principles, you know.
When I wrote this, I went through all 506 of my myspace friends. I know every single person, am interested in every band, and support every company (venue, person, and the like) of those 506, and am going to continue that trend. So even though most of the people whose friends requests I'm ignoring aren't going to read this, consider this on record.
Oh, and if you're sending a friend request, and you know I know you, but you have a picture that isn't of you or have a ridiculously odd user name, please send me a note. I'm a good investigator, but come on.

...Sometimes it takes me ages to get out to a movie theater. I still haven't seen the following:
- Garden State
- Nacho Libre

Sure, I'm behind. But I did see Star Wars at midnight in a group of 17 people. Fun times. Well, except for Anakin.
Uh oh. Horrible Star Wars joke... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (hahaha I'm lame)

Pirates of the Caribbean 2 was amazing and worth the wait.

Television:

I'll admit it: I am ridiculously attached to my TiVo.

The only reality shows I watch are Amazing Race and Project Runway.
Other than that I watch Food Network a lot (yay, Good Eats!) and Mythbusters.

Oh, and Gilmore Girls. Lorelai needs to find her brain.

Books:

"Kitchen Confidential" by Anthony Bourdain is still one of my faves.

Currently i've been thumbing through the stories in "Don't Try This at Home: Culinary Catastrophes from the World's Greatest Chefs" and I do say it's quite amusing...

I'm also slowly reading Bourdain's new book, "The Nasty Bits"
"Heat" - the book about Mario Batali - is up next. I like food books, what can I say.

Heroes:

ha, my three closest high school friends that made it through college in five years, five years, and four years (with 9 months abroad), respectively.

my running tally: on my twelfth semester in 9 years. I AM DONE WITH MY BACHELOR'S IN A MONTH AND A HALF.

My Blog

Music/Shows survey.

Finally, a survey more than just "What color shirt are you wearing?" etc., etc.That's why I wanted to post it. That and it got me thinking about old shows! I've been doing this (photographing shows)...

I really don't update this thing, do I?

In case it wasn't obvious, I rarely update this blog.I keep a LiveJournal, and it's much more frequently babbled in.I check it just as frequently as MySpace (if not more). It can be a lot less temper...
