I have a general love of music.
I love my radio.
I love to write.
I love to take photos.
I like to knit, crochet, sew, scrapbook.
I like to bake.
I like to make things for people I love.
My favorite things in the world are (in no particular order): my friends, laughter, my big green shamrock blanket, my family, my video iPod, random light fixtures, my camera, the color green, ice sports, photographs, movies that make me laugh and cry, pasta, when cover songs are better than the original, weekends where I get to see all my favorite people, flip flops, rugby, hearing my favorite band(s) when I'm in a restaurant, sweaters, Jersey boys, free drinks, listening to music and hearing parts I've never noticed before, laughing so hard I cry, Australia, making cookies, boys from the East Coast, boys from Seattle, breakfast cereal, green shirts, guys who look good in green shirts, when the opening band is just as good as the headliner, the Space Needle, making collages, making lists, Seattle, when athletes cry, traveling, jingle bells, the Rock Boat, and coffee.
I drink too much tea, take too many pictures, spend too much time wearing headphones, work too much, and sleep too little, but I'm happy.

Television:
I don't watch much television. It's not that I dislike it. It's just that I forget.
I really only watch sports. Believe it or not.
Okay, so I've been known to watch the travel channel. And the food network. And I've got a budding obsession with Dirty Jobs. But I still forget to watch tv.
Books:
I like to read. A lot.
I'll read just about anything. Chick-lit, historical, sci-fi, humor, children's, fiction, non-fiction, cereal boxes. You name it. I like words.
Heroes:
This guy.
No seriously.
He saved me from drowning once. He's my big brother.
He's also #1 in my top friends. He's pretty much the coolest guy I've ever met.
This is Liz.
She's one of my heroes too. But I won't tell you why.
Jen is my hero.
Paula Deen, THE Kellie Star-Cave, & Oprah
