food - sushi. could really eat it everyday. i like most food. the
only food i really cannot make myself eat is black olives.
weird.<br />
<br />
music - very eclectic. i love to dance, so anything you can dance
to pretty much does it for me. lately i'm going through a jazz
phase as well - old jazz. and imagine this - scott joplin. i love
the piano.<br />
<br />
movies/tv - beautiful girls (young natalie portman - wow), slumdog
millionaire, fight club, wedding crashers, the break up, amelie,
juno, woody allen (except for a couple of terrible mishaps). where
the wild things are (it was fantastic - not for kids, but about
being a kid). i love a good documentary. i either like to laugh or
cry in a movie...or both. 30 rock, breaking bad, louie (ck), the
office, modern family, the daily show, colbert report, and anything
where they are operating on people (yes, it's true).<br />
<br />
radio - npr! i couldn't do without this american life. i am in love
with ira glass. really. i love him. radiolab. the moth. i even love
car talk, especially when they get people to make the sounds that
their cars are making.<br />
<br />
books - well, i could go on and on here. currently reading
bossypants by tina fey - brilliant. david sedaris, augusten
burroughs, martha beck's expecting adam. i avoided reading eat,
pray, love because everyone else was reading it...then i finally
read it and liked it (the book, not the movie). i have a tendency
to do that...if everyone else is doing something, i don't want to
"do it too"...in fact it puts me off. oh, this is about books,
right...um, there's a lot.<br />
<br />
this doesn't ask about periodicals, but i am a magazine/newspaper
whore. yes, i read the typical women's magazines (i admit it), but
i also love wired, the week, the new yorker, the atlantic monthly,
vanity fair, the new york times, national geographic, utne reader,
and the occasional playboy (for the articles, of course). i am also
in love with mark morford of sfgate.com. if you haven't read him,
you are missing something in this life - go - start now!
