Booker the Chicken

I'm short--so what?!

About Me

"What the heck is Booker the Chicken?" you may ask... Well, growing up, one of my favorite cartoons was US Acres which featured a bunch of farm animals who were very funny. My favorite was Booker the Chicken because he sang a song called "I'm short--so what?!" He's a champion for the veritcally-challenged everywhere.

My Interests

Playing with my dogs and cat, going to the movies... I can spend a fair amount of time surfing the internet for random information--I'm a trivia junkie! I have also become addicted to the Elder Scrolls: Oblivion. I know, I'm a nerd. But I'm also a Level 6 Sister Knight, so don't mess with me!

I'd like to meet:

People who are engaging the culture and changing the world...

Music:

Latest purchased CDs = Silversun Pickups, Pete Yorn, Lily Allen, Gym Class Heroes. Listen to new music!

Movies:

In the past week, I saw Idiocracy on the plane (three stars), Wild Hogs in the theatre (three stars), and Fast Food Nation on the plane (two stars). See Idiocracy for a laugh, Wild Hogs for guffaws, and Fast Food Nation if you never want to eat again.

Television:

American Idol (Go Melinda! Go LaKisha! Go Blake!), The Soup (Joel McHale is my fantasy boyfriend, even if he won't accept me as a myspace friend...), Family Guy, The Office (British and American), and (guilty pleasure alert!) Charmed, Dog the Bounty Hunter, and America's Next Top Model (I have to admit, I love Jaslene).

Books:

The Harry Potter series, Ella Minnow Pea (Mark Dunn), The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time (Mark Haddon), Created in Darkness by Troubled Americans (McSweeney's humor), Naked Pictures of Famous People (Jon Stewart). But I haven't read in a while...see the Movies and Television sections...

Anesthesia may be the most surreal experience of my life so far...

Good Lord, I was so freaked out about anesthesia, and with good reason! Once they put that stuff in my IV (which hurt like hell, by the way), everything went gray and as if no time had passed, I woke...
