Acting, Music, TIVO... um, can that actually be an interest?
I'd like to meet:
This used to be a long list, but now it's just... Oprah, CeCe Winans, George Clooney, Jesus... and the man I'm eventually going to marry... uh, I'd like to have met him like... YESTERDAY!!!! Seriously, where IS he?! :)
Music:
Lauryn Hill, John Mayer, Switch, Shalamar, DeBarge, CeCe Winans, India Arie, Kenny Loggins, Black Eyed Peas, Dazz Band, Billy Joel, The Emotions, New Edition, Fred Hammond, James Taylor, Maroon 5, Boyz II Men, Corinne Bailey Ray, The Jacksons, Hall & Oates, Heatwave, Alicia Keys, Lalah Hathaway, Luther Vandross...
Movies:
All About Eve (The BEST movie EVER! And I'm not kidding!),The Wiz, Princess Bride, It's A Wonderful Life, While You Were Sleeping, Willy Wonka (the original, people! I love Johnny Depp, but Gene Wilder is the KING!), The Five Heartbeats ("Nights like this... I a wish..." That extra "a" was a nice touch, huh? Y'all know that's how Eddie Cain Jr sang it! HA!), Independence Day, Star Wars (all SIX of 'em), Ever After, Gladiator, Mission Impossible (I & II), Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid (Redford and Newman young and FINE... shoot, they're both still FINE), Jumpin' Jack Flash (Whoopi is hilarious in this movie), The Talented Mr. Ripley (Creepy and sad, but AWESOME!), Can't Buy Me Love (Patrick Dempsey before he was McDreamy... more like McNerdy, but still quite cute!) 16 candles (ah, unrequited love that isn't unrequited after all... what girl doesn't dream of that?!)And speaking of DREAMS... don't forget...
Television:
Law & Order (The original and SVU...I can't get with Criminal Intent, what's up with that one?), 24, Drake & Josh (the actress that plays "Helen" is AMAZING... tee, hee...), Prison Break, CSI:Miami (Two words: Adam Rodriquez. Three more: My, My, MY!!!!), General Hospital (Hello? Luke & Laura!!!), Half & Half (R.I.P., my dear friend!), Heroes, Studio 60, Ugly Betty, The Office, 30 Rock (very funny, if you haven't checked it out, you should!), America's Next Top Model, The 4400, Dancing With The Stars, So You Think You Can Dance (noticing a theme here?), Grey's Anatomy, Lost, Desperate Housewives, House, The Game (my friend Hosea is a series regular on it! Yay, HOSEA!!!), Grease: You're the One That I Want (don't judge me!), The Bachelor (I know, I know... but dang if it ain't addictive)... the list could truly go on and on...
Books:
Right now anything to do with taxes... UGH!!!! Also a Biography on Paul Newman (love him!) and every book by Dan Brown. I've read them all: Deception Point, Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons and Digital Fortress (YAY, me! Reading IS Fundamental... showing my age for SURE with that one!) I also just finished: "Friends: A Love Story" by Angela Bassett and Courtney B. Vance. I love to hear/read about how folks find their way to each other. And their journey was truly ordained by God. It was such a blessing to see how God can orchestrate your life in such a way that even through all the ups and downs and disappointments you can STILL end up with the one whom your soul truly loves. Even when you had all but given up (HELLO?!) Deep. Beautiful and DEEP! It was a great book!
Heroes:
Jesus... for making the ultimate sacrifice for a knucklehead like me, My mom for pretty much the same reason (HA!), my brother for the unrelenting optimism (that I don't even think he knows he has) and Oprah for what's she's built from absolutely nothing...
For those of you who missed it, below I've posted a link to the parts of the episode of "The Office" that I'm in. Enjoy! Well... at least for as long as I'm allowed to keep this link on my page. :)
