Obviously, I am rather fond of science and medicine. I love music (listening, performing), theater (ditto), camping, riding and working horses, reading just about anything except what I am supposed to be reading, cooking, and MOVIES.
Johnny Depp (I just have to know if he is really that good looking). Oprah. Carol Burnett. My baby nephew.Bill Cosby. Stephen Hawking. The person who invented Jello chocolate sugar-free pudding.
Just about anything except nasty rap and hokey country (I will confess to liking Garth Brooks' "Friends in Low Places"). Lynyrd Skynyrd, John Denver (don't hit me), SOAD, Green Day, Queen, ABBA, Doobie Brothers, Beatles, BEach Boys, Tool, Weezer,Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, and all those old dead guys.
Akeelah and the Bee,recently. Too many to remember, but among them Gone With the Wind, Bridges of Madison County, The Horse Whisperer, LOTR (all), Star Wars (all but the last), tons more that I can't think of right now.
West Wing, HGTV, whatever old movie is on when I am working.
Run with the Horseman and its sequels, To Kill a Mockingbird, all the Kay Scarpetta books, Sophie's World, Nancy Drew books, Tom Clancy books. Anything about physics, science and philosophy.
my patients, my children, my parents, my husband, my family, and my friends (you know who you are). Women who have been courageous in the face of crushing oppression (read "Stolen Lives").
