Music:

Music is a passion of mine, so I could go on and on with this one.
I'm a sucker for a woman's voice, piano music, and any thing with soul.

I'm a huge fan of Jazz and it's history! Although all of it is great, I enjoy listening to female jazz vocalists the most. My all time favorite is *Billie Holiday*. My current interests are Madeleine Peyroux and Keith Jarrett.

*Eric Clapton*, *Billy Joel*, *Steely Dan*, Chicago, etc.

, Nu House: *The Basement Jaxx* & Scissor Sisters

ALL, *DJ Tinman* (& HhH)

Timbaland, Fergie, Nelly Furtado, Rihanna, J-Tim, Eve, crazy Britney, Vanessa Carlton, KT Tunstall, etc.

Queen, Dave Matthews Band, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Joan Osborne, etc.

Talking Heads, Genesis, The Police, Prince, etc.

- Mahalia Jackson

*Bach*, Beethoven, etc.

*David Lanz*, Enya, etc.

Michael Buble, Norah Jones, Sade, Maxwell, Michael Jackson.

and finally... all kinds of Instrumental, Acid Jazz, Blues, Country, etc. Variety keeps life interesting.

Movies:

You gotta drag me into seeing a movie, but I usually enjoy them once it gets going.

Television:


I am not much of a TV person, but these are my favs to catch! (other than The Office!! We never miss that one!)

Books:



Heroes:

First and foremost, Jesus Christ!

My husband, David, is my angel and the best friend that I have ever had. Since I have been with him, my life has completely changed and every day has been better than the last.

My life-long friend, Whitney, has stuck with me through the good, the bad, and the ugly. I love her dearly and would do anything for her!!

My 15 year old cousin, Catherine reminds me of myself more than I could describe. I love this girl like she is my own! She is so special and I hope to be a guiding light in her life as she is in mine.

Chuck Edward is an inspiration of mine. He is not only wonderful at all that I want to be... he is a truly good person that I admire. He is a friend to treasure!
