I'd like to meet:

Anyone cozy in their skin with nothing to prove; and Augusten Burroughs whom I've been more loyal to than any other man, diet, or journal... width="425" height="350" ..Also John Frusciante so we can finally consumate our relationship and I can stop drooling.

Music:

The jukebox of my car consists of Ani Difranco, Brandi Carlile, The Fray, Jason Mraz, Damien Rice, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Joni Mitchell, The Pixies, Lauren Hill, Erykah Badu, Dave Matthews, Andy Stochansky, Tori Amos, Arcade Fire, Prince....LOTS of different music.Local talent rocks too - Check out some of my top friends for some great talent!!!!

Movies:

Closer, Sideways, High Fidelity, Amelie, Central Station, Adaptation, - something with neat characters and a clever dialouge - that always impresses me far more than effects.

Television:

Big Love, Grey's Anaotomy, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and whatever reality show I am stupid enough to start watching because then I will need closure and find out how it ends, thus having to be committed to them........... my job is REAL enough, mindless TV can be very refreshing.

Books:

Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinburg is my favrite book. Anything by Augusten Burroughs - I can't even pick a favorite. Go to www.augusten.com to check out his stuff. Possessing the Secret of Joy by Alice Walker is one of my favrites. Offender profiling books by John Douglass - I've read most of his. Beautiful Losers, The World According to Garp,

Heroes:

My boy - he saved me and continues to challenge and inspire me - I can't listen to Zion by Lauren Hill without getting teary.
