About Me

i like eavesdropping and taking pictures and biting babies' fingers and the smell of my hair conditioner and men's aftershave and lilacs. i love my job and the people i work with and count my blessings every day. bob and felice inspire me and give me hope. there is nothing better than chocolate and peanut butter. and great wine. howard feeds me the best wine. i have amazing friends and an incredible family and nieces and nephews i love and wish i could hug more often. i'm allergic to everything under the sun and my mind tends to wander. i need to see more of the world. music still inspires me after all these years - i like nothing better than hearing a song for the first time and feeling something. i love going to anton for food and wine but haven't been for ages. i'm tired most of the time but content as i know i'm tired because i live. a lot. marc and fox make me laugh and i'm enjoying a new found appreciation for toronto and exploring its nooks and crannies. especially the ones i see every day but never notice. and recently i've discovered a fondness for glen's truck.

My Interests

depends on the day. i love watching people. sometimes i wish i was invisible so i could eavesdrop without getting caught. i like hanging out at the niagara street cafe with howard and drinking too much wine. i had the best day yesterday driving up north, literally watching the leaves change colour. i love reading and just hanging out with friends. or alone. travel is necessary. i love playing with my nieces and nephews but don't see them often enough. being in the studio and hearing new songs. and i LOVE taking pictures but someone stole my favourite one and then keri gaveme another one and it broke so i'm back to being camera-less. and i'm kind of lost without it. ron gave me a hardtime once about not having a "thing" - but i think my thing is helping people. it's what i do best and what i enjoy most.

I'd like to meet:

people who are passionate about their lives and strive to make this world a better place. and clive davis. i'd love to have dinner with him and hear all his stories...ken areyou listening????????? my guilty pleasure actors include johnny and keanu and vince+vince. i don't think i want to meet any of them. i guess i can't say that until i meet them and have regrets. also that guy that just got killed on supernatural and last season on grey's anatomy. i can't remember his name. is it bad that i only want to meet actor's? lol i would have liked to have met sylvia plath. and i'd love to hear daniel quinn speak some time.
Want this badge?

Music:

i've been fortunate to work with some amazing talents over the years. rem is my alltime favourite. stipe's voice melts me. old stuff new stuff from different countries different cultures mood enhancing mood changing and i love top 40!! lol really!!!

Movies:

point break and sweet november. my friends double take when i tell them this. but it's true. i can't remember the last time i went to a theatre to see a movie. i like going by myself. to the theatres that is. at home i don't have the attention span to watch a full movie generally but almost saw all of legally blonde the other night but went to see jenny lewis at the trinity church before i caught the end. what happened????

Television:

when the time is there for tv i love it! the csi shows and lno shows, desperate, greys, the bachelor, antm, you name it, i've watched it. i dream in living in a land where i have access to hbo. maybe max will invite me over to watch satellite!!

Books:

i finished the bell jar reading into the morning and i had to call in sick to work that day. i couldn't move out of bed. i found the line between insanity and sanity that day. and it's a fine line. loved geek love. ishmael, call me ishmael, the story of b..... alchemist; the time traveller's wife. i'm reading the power of intention now based on a conversation with a friend. i told him i wanted to give me the coles' notes but i think reading it first will give way to better discussions afterward....

Heroes:

my sis joan for everything she is.
