What interests me, you ask? I love music, movies, my man and my dogs. I also enjoy bike riding, hiking, yoga and spending money I do not have. I delude myself by saying I'm going to start playing the drums again. I like records, the cracks and hisses make me happy. I am a pop culture whore, well maybe not a whore, just a little loose. I also enjoy sarcasm. I think jokes about dead babies are funny.
People that aren't afraid to have an opinion. Somebody to "get my craft on" with. Live music lovers. People that love their dogs. Anyone with a sense of humor that is a little off center,offensive or down right weird! If you can find "the funny" in even the shittiest situations, you are my kind of person!" ..

Arrested Development was a perfect show, those asses at Fox must die! DVD is the only way to go, so I'm always a season behind.
Currently reading the Astonishing X-Men by Joss Whedon. Yes, I'm a geek and proud. Recently finished reading Middlesex. Can't remember the guy's name who wrote it, but one of the best books I have ever read!I also love: Geek Love , 100 years of solitude, Fargo Rock City and Killing Yourself to Live. I guess I have a big, fat crush on Chuck Klosterman. I think it's the goofy glasses. Anything by David Sedaris, some comics like Strangers in Paradise, Sandman and the comics of Ellen Forney (I Love Led Zepplin is a great collection of hers!). I do enjoy reading a good music mag when I'm sitting on the can, MOJO will do nicely.
My mama is the coolest person walking on the face of this planet!
Cori is my Hero!..
