About Me

I love to do anything creative, it keeps my juices flowing.

My Interests

Musica es mi vida!

I'd like to meet:

The guy who made it easy to plug and play this HTML crap.....You'll want to meet him too! So, for those of you that are just as retarded as I am with HTML, give this a try to change the look of your myspace page. Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

Music:

Oh Margot & the Nuclear So and So's, how you have graced my ears with your presence! Okay, so Clay and I are hustling in New York, the final night of our CMJ music festival extravaganza, trying to get from one venue to the next in time (they were on the opposite side of NYC from each other), and we stop in to interview these guys but we have to do it after their sound check. I'm so glad we made it for that! We fell in love with their music then! It was like a 10 piece band with one very flamboyant/entertaining tamborine-ist. We couldn't make it back for the show, but found out they were playing in Austin a few weeks later. We made the show, and it kicked major ass! Here's the commentary for my favorite song of theirs!

Television:

CSI Las Vegas has a special place in my heart and gives me nightmares all the same; I am grossed out yet disgustingly fascinated with Dr. 90210; Rescue Me is my newest addiction.

Books:

The Enquirer. What! They have lots of cool pictures and interesting articles to accompany those pictures! I have a tough time reading to tell you the truth, well, my trouble lies in being able to focus on what I'm reading. Too many things going on in my head to read that I end up reading the same sentence over and over again, trying to retain the information so that the next sentence will make sense. So, anything I read has got to be short, to the point, and highly entertaining!

Heroes:

People who make it happen! People who begin with nothing and end up with everything they ever wanted to achieve, and more. People who are told "no, you can't do it" and then go and do it!
