Momma in the raw

My blogs

Gender	Female
Occupation	critic
Location	United States
Introduction	I love blogging...it's healthier than drinking. Well, sometimes.
Interests	I love spending time outside with my family. I love running and have found that it keeps my ass size to a minimum, well a minimum for a mom not the modeling world. The kids love riding bikes, so I guess I'm on board for that too.
Favorite Movies	I am just going to sum it up by directors. Anything by Scorsese, and about half of the Farrelly brothers films. Ok, and ANY period films as well. Pride and Predjudice (any version but fave is Colin Firth). Now Voyager, Casablanca, Rear Window (I celebrate Alfred's entire catelog). A fan of documentaries. The odder the better. IFC is a favorite destination on my TV.
Favorite Music	Toughie. Really digging on Mumford and Sons and Jason Mraz. The indie genre has taken over my playlist. However, I have to say that with over 7k songs on the ipod, I am still just discovering music I have had for some time.
Favorite Books	The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand is one that always makes me feel insignificant as an intellectual while still offering hope of becoming one. God help me but after all these years I can't stop reading anything by the Bronte sisters. It's as if I need my romance booster shot each year. Best Recent Reads: Water for Elephants, Traveling Mercies, Beneath a Marble Sky. Currently reading Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott.

You've written a hit musical! How will you avoid having fame go to your head?

Fame and fortune is for the earth. It won't stop you from dying and it won't get you into heaven.
