Well hell, what DON'T I do? Well my business card says I'm a graphic designer and illustrator, so that's how I pay the bills. I'm always picking up new hobbies however, and I've been dabbling in making glass beads, doing some painting lately, drawing (as usual), and singing and writing music, and my latest obsession is printing t-shirts. I taught myself how to screenprint. Making your own t-shirts rocks.
Artists, musicians, free spirits and critical thinkers. People who want to express themselves and make a difference in the world. If you want to add me as a friend 'cause you think I'll look good amongst the collection of hot women you have on your page, forget it. I check your page before I add friends. I'm not here for that. If however you have something interesting to say, feel free to pop in!
I listen to all kinds of music, from Conscious to Trance/Electronica, to Classic Rock to Alternative. If I had to pick one band I really love it would be the Red Hot Chili Peppers. They rock. Local music? Coreysan, 12, Jointpop and of course the bestest ever, Orange Sky, love you guys. Others include Zero 7, Thievery Corporation, Prince, Led Zeppelin, Ambrosia, Eagles, Earth Wind and Fire, AC/DC, Bob, Depeche Mode, Eurythmics, Simply Red, Jane's Addiction, The Pixies, Violent Femmes, Queen, Rusted Root, Phish, Supertramp, Tears for Fears, The Doors, Toto, Yoyo-Ma, Fleetwood Mac, Bruce Bec Var, Boney James, Michael Buble...well I could go on and on. But these are some of my favourites.
Love to watch movies, big fan. My favourites kind of run the gamut, from The Professional to When Harry Met Sally, and everything in between but probably my favourite is The Color Purple. I love movies like A Clockwork Orange and Brazil. Terribly disturbing but incredibly funny in their own way. V for Vendetta was great too. Love the Princess Bride (watch out for those ROUS's). And Pan's Labyrinth! Watch it! It's amazing.
I'm pretty hooked on Veronica Mars. Try not to get too sucked into the boob tube but if I miss Grey's Anatomy I can get pretty tizzik. And I love me some House MD. I have the biggest crush on Hugh Laurie.
Just re-read The Red Tent. Such an awesome book. Looking for something new to read. Tackling War and Peace or some such epic novel (found it downstairs the other day, who knew?) but it's a teeeeny tiny bit depressing. Now onto Jane Eyre and The Highly Sensitive Person. My most re-read book is The Color Purple. Have read it close to ten times I think. When I'm not reading books, I read cards.
Free spirits, free thinkers and peacemakers. Mahatma Gandhi...I love me some Bob too.
