Introduction I'm a wife, a mom, a worker, a dreamer... I'm a jack of all trades and master of none. I love books, and loathe reality tv. (Actually, I don't watch TV at all. How very un-American of me. Until they make a "geek" cable package - Sci-fi, History, TLC, Discovery, and Comedy Central - I won't pay for the rest of the crap.) I spend too much time on the internet. I'm curious about everything. I love summertime and the beach and going out in the canoe to play on the sandbar. I like to climb rocks, and read books. What other random stuff belongs in here? Like most everyone else, I dislike trying to summarize myself in one paragraph. I appreciate intelligence and humor, and non-threatening spontaneity.
Interests Reading, playing banjo, spending time with people I like, being by the ocean
Favorite Movies Real Genius, The Princess Bride, Good Will Hunting
Favorite Music 'Music of the Night' from Phantom of the Opera, the Chieftans, Rage Against the Machine, Great Big Sea, Simon and Garfunkle, Echo Uganda, the Indigo Girls, Atwater and Donnelly, Led Zepplin's 'Sticks' album, Voodoo, Adiemus, Anuna... I really enjoy good a cappella music, and beautiful harmonies. I love good cello.
Favorite Books lately? Unconditional Parenting, Are We Having Fun Yet?, the Otherland series by Tad Williams. In general, George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series, in addition to Barbara Kingsolver's Prodigal Summer, and Richard Morgan's Altered Carbon. This list is always changing, though, and I'm always in search of good new authors and books...I'm on Shelfari if anyone wants to look me up there. I recently finished re-reading Tom Robbins's "Skinny Legs and All, " and then put two more Tom Robbins books back on my re-reading list...
