Knitting. Drawing. Reading. Writing. Overthinking. Basking in irrationality. Making up words. Probably should add "singing" here, heh. Researching things I enjoy, like certain historical periods. Writing essays for fun, and I'm not lying. Obsessing over shows I watched when I was a child. Playing with my kitties. Making cupcakes, "etc". Hating Comic Sans in a BIG WAY. It's everywhere and it SUCKS!! Oh, and playing "The Beast and the Harlot" from Guitar Hero 2, with my sis, on HARD. Guitar or bass, I don't care...
Johnette Napolitano. Slash.
Concrete Blonde. Faith No More. Deftones. Type O Negative. Guns N Roses. Metallica. The Monkees. The Ronettes. Springsteen. Rick Springfield. Poison, Skid Row, Warrant, Damn Yankees, and many other bands of this ilk, but mainly for their power ballads. I'll make you a list sometime of the most killer power ballads ever. I totally collect them.
The Last of the Mohicans. Aliens. Edward Scissorhands. Witness. Kalifornia. Playing By Heart. The Blair Witch Project. Beauty and the Beast (Disney). Terminator, all of them. Star Wars, all of them (notably excluding the Phantom Menace, and notably including the Empire Strikes Back). Session 9. Heathers. The Stepford Wives (original version).
Degrassi Junior High. Degrassi High. OLD SCHOOL DEGRASSI, none of this Next Generation nonsense!!! Those awesome A&E true crime programs like Cold Case Files, American Justice and stuff. I don't watch much TV. Just the crime stuff. Oh, and I totally forgot JUST FOR LAUGHS GAGS. The only thing that's really worth watching. I have cried from laughing at this show.
