Readin, writin, not so much 'rithmatic-in. Driving, singing, guitaring, making homosexual innuendos (only because of the complete security I feel with my heterosexuality). Theology, biology, philosophy. Kites, hikes, and even dykes (gotta love everyone, people. No exceptions). God, Jesus, the Holy Ghost (Pentacostals use the word "ghost" in place of "spirit". Way cooler.) Food of all shapes, sizes, types, flavas. I tried to be a vegetarian once, but then I forgot. I want to get into Opera, someone help me get into it. Seriously. Folk music, rock music, jazz music, love music, one music, two music, red music, blue music. And though it should be inferred from my love of Christ, perhaps, I am very interested in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. His message, person, and Kingdom. I am not arrogant enough to think that I have found God, but He has certainly found me. Always willing to talk about anything real, be it imaginary or actual.
This...is Sufjan Stevens. Whom I love. Love him with me.

The X-Files is the greatest show EVER! Except when Mulder got abducted, and they got that Doggett guy on there, who completely sucks and has no personality at all, plus the whole dynamic of the show is thrown off. I mean, half of what made the show so great was the relationship between Mulder and Scully: the brother/sister/best friend buddy thing they had going on, the clash between Mulder "the believer" and Scully "the cynic", the thick sexual tension in certain situations, etc, etc.... I love you David Duchovny...
G.K. Chesterton, C.S. Lewis, the early Church fathers, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Flannery O'Conner, Shakespeare, Salinger, Capote, Willa Cather, etc.
I more or less look up to my friends. I try to choose company where I feel among my betters.
