food, music and alcohol - and people who enjoy them. also, anyone who is capable of using the english language with skill.
my match
i like things that move me - not physically, so much, because i'm totally uncoordinated. things that stir my soul or make me remember why i breathe or sum up what i've been feeling but haven't been able to express... sometimes things that just... rock. or make me jump up and down and giggle uncontrollably. things that make me realize i'm alive.
i'd like to pretend i'm high-brow, but i've already copped to being from the central san joaquin valley. i like great b-grade comedies because they make me laugh ('better off dead,' 'spinal tap,' 'addams family values,' etc.) i also love anything that makes me cry (which isn't difficult) but i hate suspense or anything unsettling (don't ask me to tell you what happens when i'm forced to watch something like 'deep blue sea' - lame, but true...)
not so much, although i find it hard to turn off 'that 70s show,' any 'behind the music,' 'the daily show' or anything pertaining to ancient egypt.
'veronika decides to die' by paolo coelho and 'immortality' by milan kundera are at the top, but pretty much anything by either author absolutely inspires me. then there's also steve martin, david sedaris, dorothy parker, banana yoshimoto, agatha christie, the first handful of anne rice novels, and too many others to name...
