About Me

it's my world - y'all just live in it!

My Interests

watching my honey bunny sleep. dorky behavior. reading one book a week dammit!

I'd like to meet:

my idol samantha brown (so clever, so funny!). haruki murakami, although i would probably pee my pants if i do. his mysteriousness m. night shyamalan.

Music:

of the moment: frou frou

Movies:

of the moment: ratatouille. anything, really, as long as it's not one of those mega-hyped huge hollywood productions AND i watch it with my baby. indie films, documentaries, foreign films (hello korea!) are all great. i don't do scary movies.

Television:

i love it all. even bad local tv. but i'd much rather read.

Books:

of the moment: neil geiman's stuff. RUNNING WITH SCISSORS!!! to kill a mockingbird, children of god go bowling, angela's ashes, the time traveler's wife, the kite runner, extremely loud and incredibly close, the perks of being a wallflower, life of pi, the curious incident of the dog in the night-time, and everything by haruki murakami. harry potter was cool until that one volume came out the size of a pillow. i can't live without the dictionary. the beach! and i thought the movie was good.

Heroes:

my mommy dearest

Ups and Downs
