My Interests

Vladimir Kush is amazing! I like how he uses one image to create another.
Fiery Dance

Measure of Greatness, I like how it is a homage to Antonio Gaudi.

Alphonse Mucha-my favorite art nouveau artist!

I'd like to meet:

I am not sure that I do want to meet anyone famous for fear that I would be a total dork and loose all sense of eloquence. As nice as it may be, I think the mystery of it all is half the fun.

Music:

Nick Cave is genius!

This is a video from Madison Square Garden on 07/24/07-I just don't know what to do with myself. You can see us at the 32-27ish seconds left of the video part. Actually we are first at the 49ish seconds left of the video then we get trailed to again. We are about 4-5 rows back from just about dead center. I am holding my poster in front of me and my right arm is flying through the air with my palm flat. You can see my white face glaring under the lights. You can see Jess (his hat) right behind and to the left of me.

I enjoy a wide variety of music. Mostly I am a rocker girl, but I dapple in other genres.

Any one that knows me knows that my main love in music is The White Stripes & The Raconteurs. All other bands are great, but will always fall second to those bands for me.

Blanche is amazing.

Movies:

Audrey Hepburn is the epiphany of true Hollywood glamor. I am notorious for falling asleep through a movie.

Television:

I Need More Cowbell!!Oh, sadly I am a television junkie.

I watch more T.V. than I would probably like to admit, but I accept that flaw within myself.

Books:

I like books, they are good for the brain.
