Music is my passion (listening, not playing. The music talent gene seems to have skipped my bloodline.) My hobby is making mixed cds for friends. My job is in music. It's safe to say, music surrounds me.

If i could be anywhere right now it would be New Orleans (preferably with Joey.) Traveling and road trips are high on my life's list of priorities. So far, New Orleans is the only physical place I've ever felt at home. Although, i've never actually lived there. There is a small plan in the works to remedy that.

Last Spring i adopted a stray kitty. His name is Finn, and to know him is to love him. (except during those not so rare moments, lately, when he feels the need to try to climb the walls.)

Liam Lynch is a brilliant, brilliant human being!

I'm 32. No one believes me. I'm ok with that. I never plan to actually grow up anyway :)

This year for Halloween i plan on dressing up as Death from the Sandman graphic novels! I finally found the perfect skirt! (in New Orleans of all places!)

I'm a candy freak! (but i hate nuts!)

I have a hard time sitting still. (hhmm, i wonder if they're related?)

I love giving/receiving hugs.

I collect fun socks.

Before stumbling into my current job, i worked in a bookstore for 9 years. Where you will most likely find me in a bookstore: The kids section (Picture books specifically - Mo Willems is fantastic!), Sci-fi or reg Lit. A few of my favorite writers are: Jeff Noon, Neil Gaiman, Jonathan Safran Foer, Jim Carroll & Jack Kerouac.

*Two book recommendations that have yet to go wrong: 1) Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer! 2)Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman!

NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS!!!!! (I'm a little on the obsessive side with this movie.) Other favorites include: Almost Famous, Billy Elliot, Garden State,Nightwatch- the original Russian version) and pretty much anything Tim Burton touches.

I always seem to fall for the shows that never make it past a second season (Carnival, Dead Like Me) The ones i've had good luck with: Dr. Who (old and new,)Dexter, Torchwood & Weeds.
