| Introduction | I like music. If you ask me what kind, I guess I'd have to say "rock" and then I'd feel like a real bore. Which would lead me to weekends of researching different types of "rock" so that I can one day answer, "I like British Invasion especially freakbeat and psychedelic, but early british pop and mod is great too." That'd make me feel a whole lot less humdrum about my answer. Here's something I've never shared with anyone: Sometimes I baby talk to my laptop. Things like, "oh, ooopsie daisy, I bumped you in the noggin'!" or, "Don't worry I'll be right back, mamma's just gotta eat something..." I wish I was making this up. |

| Favorite movies | Last I saw?, Ratatouille, - *** 1/2. Possibly would have only gotten 3 stars, but there is an incredible climax/turning point with the Peter O'Toole character that really touched a spot with me. |
