Anything and everything minus a few.

I have an affinity for chick rock, Ani Difranco, Joni Mitchell, Tori Amos, Joan Armatrading, The Donnas, The Be Good Tanyas Fiona Apple, Beth Orton...blah blah blah. Chicky music. My favorite song of all time is "For what its Worth" by Buffalo Springfield.

Movies:

I love old school 80's films, indie films (High Art) or anything that makes me think about it while i am trying to go to sleep. Netflix has become my latest companion, we spend many nights together.

Television:

The L Word!! Ugly Betty, South of Nowhere, The Girls Next Door, Iron Chef,CSI, Law and Order:SVU....The news-MSNBC, CNN.....or music(adult alternative is my LOVE) channel on tv I can also totally get sucked into any marathon on any channel.

Books:

BOOKS:Too many to choose from, too many I love. I adore books, I think that authors have balls for putting it out there in print, and relish every word, every thought that is mine of theirs to read! My favorite part of my house by far are my two huge bookshelves.

Heroes:

Rosa Parks because she didn't give up her seat. Roe vs. Wade (Norma McCorvey)because every woman has a right to choose. Christa McAuliffe because she was a teacher who wanted to explore and be "Challenged". Elenor Roosevelt for saying, "If someone betrays you once it is their fault, if someone betrays you twice it is your fault." Coretta Scott King for building The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change as a living memorial to her husband's life and dream. Ani Difranco, because she is a righteous chick on her own. Wonder Woman, because she had the best outfit ever!
