About Me

I think I have a split personality, so I may need two myspaces....hmmmm. But, for this side of me....Southern by birth and by accent. Liberal through and through. And, through. Hates narrow-mindedness and self-centeredness. Believes that we're not taking care of the children of the world nearly well enough, since so many are suffering. Needs to win the lottery very, very badly, so as to become a serious world-traveler and lay-about. Dreams of seeing Paris in the spring rain and fulfilling fantasy of driving the Batmobile, before finally retiring on the Emerald Isle and spending her days drinking ale and telling tales. Or, hey, maybe becoming a lighthouse keeper. Yes!

My Interests

Music, lots and lots and most all kinds. Movies by the bunches. Books by the stack. Also, watermelon, Reeses Peanut Butter Bars, and good luck charms. Oh, yeah, and Dale, Jr. And Lewis Black and Eddie Izzard!

I'd like to meet:

Bono, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, George Clooney, Springsteen, Bob Geldof, Bishop Desmond Tutu, Tim Burton, Danny Elfman, Susan Sarandon, and...strictly for the hotness factor....the Brad half of Brangelina.

Music:

Wow, there's not enough space..Josh Groban, Green Day, old Metallica, Beatles, Bloody Lovelies, Gin Blossoms, anything Danny Elfman, Elton John, Bob Dylan, Indigo Girls, Placebo, Rob Thomas, Aretha, Taylor Hicks, Ramones, Melissa Etheridge, Springsteen, Cruxshadows, Paolo Nutini. Hell, I even have Elvis moments.

Movies:

Tim Burton is a God amongst men. Potter, SW, Casablanca, Chocolat, Elizabethtown. Johnny Depp....he ain't just another pretty face. I love foreign films, indies, and old black-and-whites. With popcorn. Ooooh! "Across The Universe"!!

Television:

Prison Break is the new crack. And, yes, I'm on the same boat with the rest of you---Lost, Grey's Anatomy, Survivor, Idol. I *always* tivo Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert for my news fix.

Books:

Everything. Just. Everything. Cause there's moods and needs, you know? Some days you want Dickens. Some days you want Mandela. And, some days you just want Evanovich. I adore Neil Gaiman. My favorite all-time book is "Wuthering Heights" cause, you know, Heathcliff.

Heroes:

Too many to count, but I'm always game, so...my kids who give meaning to my life, Bobby Kennedy, Nelson Mandela, Jimmy Carter, Superman, Dorothy, Atticus Finch, Mother Teresa, Ghandi, Bob Geldof,Bono,George Clooney and the countless men and women who work every day to make life better for others.
