People who do not lie to me, which is a good thing wouldn't you agree? Working with various theater companies (thank you Wes!)painting and hanging out with Kevin. Working out 4 to 5 times a week at the gym I finally got a membership to (I have lost 8 pounds and I only have 12 to go! Yay high school weight!)Going to and volunteering with the Houston Grand Opera, the Houston Symphony, various theater companies in Houston and of course the Center for the Arts and Sciences in my home town. Hanging out with my brother and my sister as well as the people who are TRULY my friends. :)
Many more art, music and theater people. As I do fall into that category of people, I must admit that we are by far a fabulous and cool bunch of people......(party hard, etc.).
Classical music (various kinds....so I am a nerd o.k.)Damian Rice, Death Cab for Cutie, Dave Matthews (hey, I went to college between 97 and 02....Dave is a religion), Coldplay, David Bowie, Bob Marley ( and many other reggae artists), Keane (love them!), Modest Mouse, Franz Ferdinand, Crystal Method, David Grey, Ben Folds Five, Rolling Stones, Nine Inch Nails, James Blunt, tons of music from numerous musicals (my Mom's influence) and many, MANY others.
300....GERARD BUTLER IS F%&#*@^ HOT!!!!!Plus, the music from 300 makes me want to kill people when I am stressed out, but yet keeps me from killing people. The Natural (thank you Jason Huber for inroducing me to that movie), The Libertine, Quills, Forrest Gump, Memoirs of a Geisha (book was WAY better), anything with Audrey Hepburn, It's a Wonderful Life (I watch this when I have had a HORRIBLE day), Fiddler on the Roof, Funny Girl (my mother made us watch Barbra Streisand movies with her), Titus Andronicus, Marie Antoinette, Cabaret, Meet Me in St. Louis, Dangerous Liasons (YAY John Malkovich when he was hot!), Capote, Crash, Steel Magnolias, Coal Miner's Daughter, Gone With the Wind, the Muppet Movies (loved them since I was 5), Strictly Ballroom, Chicago, many, MANY others.
I finally have cable again, yet I only watch certain things. Grey's Anatomy is like a drug for me on Thursday nights. I love Big Love on HBO. Something about the antics of a polygamist family is so intriguing! I also watch reruns of Sex and the City on DVD whenever possible. I also love some of the shows on the Home and Garden Network too.
Various art and theater books. Too many books to list!
Kevin....he knows why. :) Amanda and Joe who have helped me to "see the light"......:) Wes C. for helping me during my emotional breakdown about two months ago. Balazs, Phillip and a few other students of mine who helped me through the past few months with the wild craziness known as the art program where I teach and their help in the classroom when I was going through some bad "stuff" the past few months. Chad S. even though I haven't gotten to see him in nearly a year and I haven't gotten to talk to him in a long time. My baby sister Lindsey who is the HOTTEST MOST KICK ASS Tennessee Titans CHEERLEADER to ever walk or dance her pom poms off on earth! She has also helped me "see the light" too.:) My baby brother Nathan for being hillarious yet freakishly smart and for meeting his biggest high school goal of making drum major of the band at our high school which is something he has worked for since he was 12. Many other people who I don't have enough space to write about.
