I would be much less self-obsessed if others were more interesting.

I AM AMAZING! YAY! ME! YAY!

I'd like to meet:

YOU!!! I'd like to meet you! Look at you...you are incredible! Who wouldn't want to meet you?

Music:

Natalie Merchant, Kate Bush, Metallica and countless others from all genres, continents, styles and centuries on a song by song, arrangement by arrangement basis. From 70's-80's punk/thrash+alternative to Peruvian folk music, from classical to real house music, from classic rock to neosoul and from hip-hop to the Cocteau Twins and beyond.

Movies:

The Color Purple,The Incredibly True Adventures Of Two Girls In Love, Fried Green Tomatoes, Time Bandits, Hellboy, Dogma, House of Yes, Party Girl I like comedies, action, martial arts, sci-fi, sports movies, documentaries, gay feel good movies(where the main characters are strictly gay throughout and noone has to die) and stupid teen movies. And generally no horror but I will watch anything that Parker Posey is in. Most movies have a great moment or two, a slow hour, a half-decent half hour and another half hour that is totally forgettable. Speaking of amazing moments, I like the training sequence/montage in any and every movie.

The Sarah Silverman Show, Arrested Development, The Office, Family Guy, Futurama, Reno 911, Mad TV, The Oblongs, Kids in the Hall, Tracey Ullman, sketch comedy in general, Colbert Report, The Daily Show, the original Addams Family, Noah's Arc, Law and Order Criminal Intent, Intervention, X Games, kickboxing, Ultimate Fighting Championship, UFC Unleashed, Pride Fighting, World Combat League, International Fight League, WrekCage, Human Weapon and a slew of shows on HGTV.

Books:

The Autobiography of A Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda and too much non-fiction to list. Subjects-Spirituality, self-help, alternative medicine, how-to's, neuroscience, psychology and physics especially quantum physics. My huge thick, and unabridged dictionary. It's big ladies. Really, really big.Stone Butch Blues - Rarely fiction cos I want 'just the facts ma'am'. I LOVE doing puzzle books that include syllacrostics, logic problems, anacrostics, crosswords and so many more.Recently read- 'Lessons from The Masters Of The Far East' by Baird T. Spalding. Vibrational Medicine. Great stuff! The Seat of the Soul and Chinese Health Secrets.

Heroes:

Jesus for hanging in there when the going got tough. Buddha for making sitting cool. Pagans who bathe often and wear some sort of deodorant. Monks, nuns, gurus and saints. Helen Keller. Vegans. Parents who don't use the tv as a babysitter. Nerdy girls with good politics. Big girls that wear tight and/or revealing clothing. Femmes who love butches/bois and transmen. Proud, loud and self-loving fags, dykes and trannies. Kitties in the Charm City Kitty club. Artists that can earn a living from their art. Artists that don't earn a living or get recognition and create just to create. Anybody in Baltimore that knows how to read and write well (you have beaten the odds and I salute you). Folks with common sense. People who finish what they star
