What Your Soul Really Looks Like
You are a warm hearted and open minded person. It's easy for you to forgive and forget.

You are a grounded person, but you also leave room for imagination and dreams. Your feet may be on the ground, but your head is in the clouds.

You believe that people see you as larger than life and important. While this is true, they also think you're a bit full of yourself.

Your near future is a lot like the present, and as far as you're concerned, that's a very good thing.

For you, love is all about caring and comfort. You couldn't fall in love with someone you didn't trust. Inside the Room of Your Soul
The Cure Shares Your Taste in Music

See their whole playlist here (iTunes required)
Which Musician (or Group) Shares Your Taste in Music?

Music:

I listen to 99X, Q100, Star94, Project 9-6-1...whoever is playing anything good at the moment! I'll listen to pop, metal, rock, alternative, classical...anything except for country, that crap makes me wanna puke.

Movies:

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Garden State are my favorites. I guess I like indy films. Squid and the Whale, Red Violin, Big Fish, The Good Girl, Little Miss Sunshine, Blow.
Comedies are always good too though. Napoleon Dynamite, Saved, Harold & Kumar go to White Castle, Elf, Office Space, Fun with Dick and Jane, Borat, Talledega Nights, Blades of Glory and of course all the classics. Anything (except for Anchorman-sorry Will, have no clue wtf you were thinking with that one) with Will Farrell is hilarious!

Television:

The Soup, Best Week Ever, Celeb. Fit Club, any of those VHI shows. Grey's Anatomy, The Office, Reruns of That 70's Show, Nip/Tuck, Everybody Loves Raymond, Family Guy, South Park

Books:

Lately my reading consists of "The Very Busy Spider", "Red Tractor" or "Baby Animals" LOL
I have to pimp my fav. books though...anything in the New Glucose Revolution series. Taught me a life-changing healthy, yet incredibly simple way to eat since Aug.06 and I'm on my way to becoming a skinny hottie again! Hehe!

Heroes:

My husband. He is the hardest working, most determined, sweetest man I've ever known.

Garden State

What can I say.  One of my favorite movies of all time.  Draws me in mind, body and soul.  The dynamic between Largeman and Sam is so much like that of Rob and I.  Just the fact th...
