Currently reprioritizing my musical tastes.

Movies:

Whatever is next on my Netflix queue.

Television:

Boooooring.

Books:

Tom Robbins, e.e. cummings, Pablo Neruda, Angela Carter, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Yvor Winters, and I could continue for days, so I'll stop here. I have a particular softness in my heart for poetry, but I like a good magical realist every once in a while. They are crunchy and delightful.

Heroes:

Eek.
