I dont really watch tv. For years I didn't even have a tv. My son mostly watches it now and it is mostly spongebob squarepants...lol Now, when I do watch tv, I mindlessly stare at music videos, I have HBO on demand and all I watch is Carnivale and Sopranos. Even though I truly hate them, sometimes I find myself gawking at the occasional sleazy talk show or reality tv. It's just like rubbernecking at a car wreck, you just have to look.
I love to read but with a child it is nearly impossible. Some of my favorites include, Valley of the Dolls, anything by Chuck Palinuck, Alice In Wonderland., Poetry by Anais Nin, Edward Gorey, Poe, The Best of Bizarre, Freaks: We who are not as others, Sylvia Plath, Go Ask Alice, Geek Love, Poppy Z. Brite novels(Lost Souls, Drawing Blood, Exquisite Corpse) Party Monster, I love biographies, "I dont want to live this life" is a great one...Visual eye candy books by Taschen, Man Ray and tattoo or body modification,pin-up, and fetish photography.
