actor, model, artist...leisure activist

sag, aftra

painting, drawing, singing, playing any and all kinds of music, relaxing with pals (or my cat), knitting, reading, writing ridiculous short stories, dancing, shopping and selling everything i own on ebay, griping about republican mentalities.

anything margaret atwood (esp "the edible woman"), harry potter, jude the obscure (all Hardy, actually), james joyce "the dead", PG Wodehouse "the luck of the bodkins", evelyn waugh "brideshead revisited", pearl buck "sons", christina schwarz "drowning ruth", jhumpa lahiri "the namesake" and the first half of "the thorn birds" (the 2nd half is shmarmy crap). i also love a good children's book if the illustrations are decent (everybody should check out chirs van allsburg's entire body of work except the polar express- that's the weakest one in my opinion.)

too difficult to say...tops would include the english patient, lotr 1, 2 &3, star wars trilogy, dune (i am a sci fi junkie- backlash from being raised an only child/tomboy), chocolat, y tu mama tambien, elizabeth (all cate blanchett), bridget jone's diary, the color purple, city of god, empire of the sun, the dark crystal, legend, about schmidt, the hours, moulin rouge, down with love, little voice....to name a few. my dvd collection is huge, which may explain why i have no need for cable.

i love it all! special faves include billie holiday, ella fitzgerald (the crackly old recordings), jeff buckley (what a gorgeous man), salt n'peppa (yeah, i admit it), alison krauss, rad film soundtracks like "o brother where art thou" & "requeim for a dream", opera, even a little good ole bluegrass if it isn't hokey.

I'm not big on t.v...I do enjoy the occassional episode of will & grace and have a slight affection for cold case but beyond that it's network news. oh wait. i do have one guilty pleasure- "girlfriends" on the WB. that joan just cracks me up.

I could ramble on about things I like and things I don't like, but knowing me, it would all flip topsy-turvy by tomorrow and pending friends would feel misled. So all I'll committ to is that I dig beauty in all forms (even the conventionally ugly ones) and I covet new experiences (even the conventionally ugly ones).
Oh- and I love my cat (seriously, she is a super rad kitty. freow!)

anyone who is just like me or completely different. most importantly, people who are bent on pursuing personal evolution and are willing to talk about it with a practical stranger.

or heck, just really cool people with interesting lives that like to chat.

PS. interesting is not necessarily synonymous with accomplished.
