I sing and play guitar and harmonica, I read, draw, write, and dance... hmm. Interests like hobbies, or interests like reading about light in National Geographic, looking at pictures of tattoos from all over the world, learning what makes things tick...

Cohen Brothers, Capra, Coppola (Sophia & Frances Ford), Carpenter, Chaplin, hmm...and that's just part of the "Cs"...
I try to avoid it as much as possible - if I sit in front of one, it sucks me in no matter what crap is playing.
Hmmm...this is a tough one. I love so many books. I'm usually reading several books at once.
Some favorites:
The Robber Bride by Margaret Atwood,
Blond by Joyce Carol Oates,
The Lord of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien (haven't finished the trilogy yet),
shopgirl by Steve Martin (yep, Mr. Steve Martin),
Get In The Van by Henry Rollins.
Some more of my favorite authors are Dorothy Parker, Mark Twain, Edgar Allen Poe, James Thurber, Anita Loos, Ray Bradbury, Stephen King, Paul Zindel, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Diane Ackerman.
I enjoy reading books with a female protagonist, but I am by no means a "chick book" kinda gal. I like some of those, and despise others.
I used to be a voracious fiction reader, but in the last few years, I've really gravitated toward non-fiction:
Biographies
Books about other cultures (including American sub-cultures)
Laymen's science, ("nuclear physics and biochemistry for the everyday bloke")
Animal psychology, physiology and symbology books
I'm in the process of kicking my "Self-help" habit.
