The usual... good movies (usually foriegn/indie/documentaries), movies so bad they're good, lots and lots of music from across all genres...I love my old school Pentax K1000, especially when it's loaded up with some Ilford B/W film, and I can roam around the street shooting to my heart's content. However, I have betrayed my film past in favor of an Olympus E500, which allows me to really shoot to my heart's content. Hundreds of shots in one outing? Rock on.I like antique stores and thrift shops and weird memorabilia; however, I'm fascinated by technology and spend a lot of (read: probably too much) time on the ol' internets here.I'm back in school working toward becoming a high school English teacher. And when I'm not doing all this stuff, I'm spending time with my gal.

I don't really watch that much... but when I do: Adult Swim, Family Guy, Simpsons, Futurama, Seinfeld, The Office (US and UK), Discovery/History Channels. And yes, every now and then I get sucked into things like Flavor of Love and Project Runway. (Strictly for the sociological implications. *cough*)
