About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Piggy

My Interests

HALLOWEEN, Music, art, ceramics, photography, reading, cooking, making bread from scratch sans bread machine, animals (esp. mine & Andy's), movies, swimming, candle making,live music, gardening/horticulture, canoing, backpacking and pretty much anything "outdoorsy", hangin' w/ friends & select family members, playing with my nieces, being a couch potato, poking Andy, dining out, wasting time whenever and however possible. And being super duper awesome.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to be reunited with my ribcage and rock-hard abs. And my willpower. Why have they forsaken me?

Music:

The Cramps, The Clash, Sonic Youth, Stereolab, Johnny Cash, Beck, Mozart, A Tribe Called Quest, B-Boys, Anthony Hamilton, Outkast, Elvis Costello, The Pogues, Half Man/Half Biscuit, Dr. Octagon, Hogscaper, Billie Holiday, Diana Krall, Jill Scott, Erykah Badu, Kelly Joe Phelps, Lauryn Hill, Lisa Ekdahl, Sarah Vaughn, Massive Attack, Reverend Horton Heat, The Pixies, Ruben Gonzales, Etta James, Led Zeppelin, Ray Charles, Stan Goetz, The English Beat, The Flaming Lips, The Ramones, The Specials, XTC, Talking Heads, Cocteau Twins, Steely Dan, Cake, John Legend, Buzzcocks, Circle Jerks, Black Flag, Gorillaz, Modest Mouse, Gnarls Barkley. I could go on and on..... Oh, wait. I already have.

Movies:

Anything Monty Python, The Jerk, Airplane, The Man with Two Brains, The Usual Suspects, Raising Arizona, Siesta, Lord of the Rings movies, some of the Star Wars movies, Shallow Grave, A Fish Called Wanda, Austin Powers, Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, Blazing Saddles, Christmas Vacation, Young Frankenstein, Dr. Strangelove, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Fargo, The Graduate, History of the World Part I, Napoleon Dynamite, Office Space, The Pink Panther, Spaceballs, Bar Fly, Three Amigos, Clerks,Wild at Heart, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Blue Velvet, Bad Lieutenant, True Romance, Army of Darkness, Bad Taste, Deadalive.

Television:

I'm a crime show/mystery junky. Don't like too much else that's current. I usually watch TV to fall asleep on the couch or zone out. That said, here's the list: Law & Order (SUV & original), Poirot, The Closer, The Shield, Sex & the City, The Young Ones, Family Guy, Simpsons, Chapelle Show, South Park, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report.

Books:

Just listing some authors here. Too many books to name: Jonathan Kellerman novels, John Irving, Herman Hesse, Franz Kafka, William Faulkner, David Sedaris, Wendy McClure, Augusten Burroughs, Elmore Leonard, art history books, music history books, lots of kids books but I don't know the authors. I must stop now. My brain hurts.

Heroes:

I don't really think of people in that way. I may admire people for certain qualities or deeds, but I think I stopped putting people on pedestals a long time ago. The admiration list is too long to mention.
