I like green t- shirts, books, two hour baths, world religion, hanging out with Nicole,nature, listening to Type O Negative at a very loud level,my koi pond, animals, thunderstorms, coffee, driving with the windows down and the heat on, cuddles with Mark, the green man, mythology, playing pranks on my husband and trying to get through school and keep my sanity.
Mark likes making contraptions of all sorts, drawing, being a dad, knitting doilies, and playing his guitar. In his spare time he brushes strange patterns into the carpet with old combs. He enjoys building his own guitars and has acquired quite a collection. One of his favorite pass times is to spontaneously take them apart and leave them laying around for me to trip over. I fall for it every time too, I just never know when it is coming and have a bad habit of not looking down when I am in a hurry (which is all the time). I suppose it is one of the ways he expresses his love.
Eagerly awaiting the new Type O Negative cd, Dead Again, due in March!

The little neighborhood brat who keeps throwing apples into my koi pond and throwing off the ph level! I also would not mind meeting the two assholes who stole my daughter's porch swing right off our porch!
Mark likes a lot of stuff Deftones, Amen, Murderdolls, Nashville Pussy, Wednesday 13, Norma Jean, Melvins, Converge, Team Sleep, old school stuff like, Faster Pussycat, Skid Row, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Dokken and Loudness.
And well.....I like mostly Type O Negative, Murderdolls - basically anything Wednesday does, Moonspell, Tristania, Therion, Sins of Thy Beloved, Theatre of Tragedy, Team Sleep, Alice In Chains, Mad Season, Flogging Molly, Sublime, Bare Naked Ladies, Concrete Blonde, most eighties hair bands, sappy love ballads, the more make up and theatrics the better!
Jeez, there's so many...From Dusk Till Dawn (all of them), The Prophecy 1,2,& 3, Monty Python's The Holy Grail. The Life of Brian, Dead and Breakfast any Tim Burton or Jay and Silent Bob movies, Napoleon Dynamite, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, cheesy horror movies of the B variety.
We both watch the Discovery channel,HBO (Carnival, Sopranos, Big Love), science and history channels, VH1, comedy central and animal planet, oh yeah--court tv, can't forget that. We crack out on any show having to do with forensic science. I like watching Dog the Bounty Hunter for some reason I can not explain. Does anyone else think he resembles Dee Snider? Maybe that is why I can not turn the channel when it is on. I just get in this paralyzed state and do not move till it is over.

I will read and re-read anything by Anne Rice, Stephen King, Dean Koontz, J.K. Rowling, Tolkien, Dr. Seuss, Lovecraft, V.C. Andrews, most Henry Rollins and all Gregory Maguire. Any book about King Arthur and serial killers--but not together! This new class I took just for fun has opened the door to old, classic literature for me and now I can not get enough of it.
Mark does not usually read books only music mags, the backs of shampoo bottles and cereal boxes. Sometimes he even reads the directions that go to things, but then only if he has already spent an hour trying to figure out how to put something together without them.
My heroes are, Aunt Jemima, Davy Jones, Mr. Bubble, Homer, Christopher Walken, Don Quixote, Bozo the Clown, and my wonderful, adorable, husband Mark.
Mark's heroes would probably be several old school guitar gods...check with him on that.
