My Interests

American Sign Language, movies, reading, traveling, music..
More, I'm sure, but nothing that leaps to mind just now. :)

I'd like to meet:

Johnny Depp, Salman Rushdie, John Stewart.
I WOULD say David Sedaris, but I MET him already. Ha! Probably many more. The guy who plays Jim on "The Office," because I love him. Marlee Matlin. I met that deaf actor from "The Family Stone." Eddie Izzard, as long as he doesn't do a fake American accent.

Music:

A little bit of everything. Except country.

Television:

The Office, My Name is Earl, The Daily Show, Desperate Housewives, Lost, Gilmore Girls

Books:

Ahh, books.. I think I will just list here my current favorite authors..
which include - Salman Rushdie, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Kazuo Ishimuro,
Gunter Grass, John Updike, Kurt Vonnegut, Umberto Eco, David Sedaris and
David Rakoff. Also, now Milan Kundera and Charles Bukowski.
