People who are a blast from the past. It cracks me up who you can find on here. My goal is to meet my very first friend from kindergarten or something.
My music preferences span across the board that it's sort of ridiculous. I like everything from country (Keith Urban, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Rascal Flatts) to super cheesy pop (Ronan Keating, Justin Timberlake) to indie girl music (Chantal Kreviazuk, Abra Moore, Sozzi) to singer/songwriters (David Gray, Teddy Geiger, Gavin DeGraw) to almost anything. As long as it has a good beat and/or good lyrics, then I'll probably at least appreciate it.
Geesh...I have so many fave movies--What Dreams May Come, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones' Diary, Serendipity, and the list goes on and on...see the pattern? Cheesy chick flicks!
I love TV! I'm a dedicated fan of Close to Home, Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters, What About Brian, Bones, Nip/Tuck, Rome, and Entourage. I'm also a fan of CSI Las Vegas and CSI NY, really don't like CSI Miami for some reason. And don't laugh...but this past season, I was sooo addicted to the reality competition shows--American Idol, Project Runway, So You Think You Can Dance, and Dancing with the Stars.
I'm not much of a book reader these days, but my fave book of all time is "Mists of Avalon" by Marion Zimmer Bradley.
My hero is definitely my grandpa. He basically raised me from the time I was a baby. My grandpa taught me the importance of family. He put a lot of things in perspective for me, and always made me feel like I should feel priviledged to live such a good life. My grandpa died in 2001 and I miss him dearly. He will forever be the most important person in my life.
