About Me

Give me laughter and intellect mixed with just a touch of precociousness and promiscuity.
I Love to travel and aim to do more of it. Here's some places I've been
Memorable Quotes from my favorite movies:
Norman Bates: “A boy's best friend is his mother.”
Sissy: “I don't care, quite frankly! I am tryin' to quit smokin'!”
Michael McPhee: “Can you make money from philosophy?”
Lila Montagne: “Andrew, darling, a glass of that cuvée. And people, I do hope we're not speaking disparagingly about our clientele. Gossip is so ignoble, especially regarding those less fortunate.”
Chi-Chi Rodriguez: “Get with the program mijas, no one is so rich as to throw away a friend.”
Annelle: “Miss Truvy, I promise that my personal tragedy will not interfere with my ability to do good hair.”
Max: “All you want to talk about is money, let's talk about love, and sex... forget love, let's just talk about sex.”

You Are an Appletini

But when you get super sauced, you really up your sex appeal. What Mixed Drink Are You?

Music:

Lounge, House, Jazz (on Sundays), Beethoven, Musical theater, Fleetwood Mac, EBTG (so hot), DJ Kostas at the former Lizard Lounge, XM channels 80, 81, 84, 25,23, 73, 75, 20 and on an odd day 11 (country), Natalie Cole at Wolftrap

Movies:

Max Dugan Returns; Steel Magnolias; Broken Heart's Club, Too Wong Foo; Money Pit; Sordid Lives. I have seen almost every Academy Award best picture at least to the 50s.

Television:

Sex and the City, Nightly News w/ Brian Williams, CNN, Grey's Anatomy, Prison Break, Project Runway, Heroes, CSI (the original), Ab Fab, House, Law and Order SVU, and sigh... American Idol. Why oh why Melinda?

Books:

Favorite book is 'Kite Runner' ... Harry Potter, WEB Griffin, James Patterson, Nelson DeMille, Michael Crichton... anything that reads well and makes me think, especially if it includes some history or is about a place I've been... Winterdance was great! About a guy who had run the Iditerod. Just read "A Thousand Splendid Suns." If you can get through the first 150 pages, it is worth it.

Heroes:

My mom, my sister, my friends Johnny and Lisa... and my Church congregation ;)

I'm about to break out into song... Bonnie Tyler anybody? I need a hero. I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night. He's got to be strong, he's got to be fast and he's got to be fresh from the fight!
