I find history fascinating up to the point they start fighting wars primarily with guns. I've been in the SCA over 20 years.I play Everquest 2, a lot, on the AB server. My main is a 70 Mystic named Melora.

People who share my interests, are friendly and are not idiots.
My musical tastes are very ecclectic. If I listed all the bands and types of music I like this would be too long. Seriously my CD collection encompasses everything from groups like Air Supply to bands like Slayer. Really I'll listen to almost anything except that I'm not overly fond of Country. For like a decade my favorite song has been "Temple of Love" by The Sisters of Mercy.
My current favorite band however are HIM, a Finnish rock band with which I am entranced. I've been playing their albums Love Metal, Razorblade Romance & Darklight almost constantly.
As for this one, Pete Steel...fangs... gah, what else can I say?
I am not a huge film buff. I rarely go to the movies and if I do something has to have really attracted me to that film.
A few favs are Practical Magic, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Peter Jackson is a genius), The Secret of Roan Inish, The 13th Warrior, Clerks, The Nightmare Before Cristmas, the CKY series, Jackass, Jackass 2 (This shit gets funnier everytime), The Dudesons.
Also I'll devour almost any vampire flick. From the seriously scarey to the seriously stupid, if there are fangs in it I'm there.
Do you like Vampires too? Want to be one?

Oddly I'm not that into period films which is practically a requirement as an SCA member. Most of my SCA friends groan out loud when I tell them my favorite period film is Flesh & Blood with Rutger Hauer. *grin*
I don't watch TV anymore. Really I don't. If I watch one show a week it's because I've wandered over to see what H is watching. If I feel the need to entertain myself but have become bored by the internet & EQ2 I will watch a DVD or video tape. 8 times of 10 its something from my funny idiots collection.
I read a fair amount non-fiction to further my history and art interests. For fiction I'm keen on Fantasy Adventure. My favorite author hands down is Terry Pratchett. Read "Small Gods" if nothing else. Seriously. I also like Anne McCaffrey and Piers Anthony.
I'll read some horror, mostly vampire stories, also H.P. Lovecraft and his immitators.
My husband Howie is my hero. This is because he is my knight in shining armor.
