being hyperactive--rock climbing--singing (sometimes loudly, sometimes badly, sometimes both)--snowboarding (getting so much better!)--reading--trying to keep in touch with my far-away friends--eating sushi--live music--driving long distances--daydreaming...
I'd like to meet:

Movies:
i honestly have liked just about everything i've seen. favorites include snatch--fight club--eternal sunshine of the spotless mind--the usual suspects--love and sex--love actually--mean girls--zoolander--say anything--lost in translation
Television:
i watch very little TV. shows i would never miss: 24 and nip/tuck. i also really like arrested development (shame on them for canceling it!), the office, the simpsons, and the family guy.
Books:
personal favorites include: wonderland avenue (danny sugerman), the electric kool-aid acid test (tom wolfe), if it were only true (marc levy), and of course, jonathan livingston seagull (richard bach). tom wolfe is by far my favorite author, but i am also a sucker for mindless thriller crap like james grippando and stuart woods.
Heroes:
all of you who have seen me through the wild ups and downs over the past 5 years or so. you are few and far between and i thank you for it.
