Spending time with friends and family-they are incredibly important, watching movies, listening to music, reading, eating, games (card and board games-not head games), nature, anything related to turtles, and I love traveling!
I'd like to meet:
Currently I have a celeb crush on Jake Gyllenhaal but it's not too realistic that I'll meet him...so I guess I'd just like to meet nice, intelligent, cool, laid back people.
Music:
Pretty much anything but Country. I especially like 80's music! I have pretty varied taste and just to name a few, in no particular order-I enjoy Eddie Money, old school Madonna and Michael Jackson, Beastie Boys, Beatles, Blue Oyster Cult, Chicago, Cindy Lauper, Coldplay, Air Supply, Eva Cassidy, Phil Collins, Genesis, Queen, Sublime, .38 Special, Reel Big Fish, Heart, Bon Jovi, Guns N Roses, Sarah McLaughlin, Men at Work, Toto, PM Dawn, The Glenn Miller Orchestra, Cheap Trick, Whitney Houston (again, back in the day), The Eagles, REM, Styx, Paula Abdul-back in the day, Huey Lewis (w/ or w/out the News) Kansas, Mister Mister, Boston, Less Than Jake, Spandeau Ballet, Scorpions, Jewel, James Blunt, Tommy Tutone, Foreigner, Journey, Pat Benatar, Joan Jett, Taylor Dayne, The Jets, U2, Van Morrison, Sting and the Police, Neil Diamond, Pretty much any of the Monster Ballads artists, The Weather Girls, Fleetwood Mac, Bruce Springsteen, Human League, Night Ranger, The Outfield, Abba, Aretha Franklin, The Cars, Elton John, Billy Joel, Cutting Crew, Blondie, Weezer, Extreme, Gloria Gaynor, Boys II Men, Hanson, Anna Nalick, Salt-n-Pepa, old school Snoop and Dre, Richard Marx, Scandal, some Musical music, Classical music including Mozart, Chopin, and Beethoven, and the list goes on and on

Books:
Mostly fiction-I like Oprah book club books-(yes, I know it's Oprah's book club, but some of the books are really good), Angels and Demons, DaVinci Code, James Patterson books, Maeve Binchy books, Nicholas Sparks books, some self-improvement books, Some teaching books, and of course all children's books
