Music
I like to listen to music that reflects my mood. Since my moods are multi-faceted, my music is just as diverse. The only types I have not found a place in my heart for yet are country music, jazz, and heavy metal. Anything else goes, but I seem to gravitate toward powerful, strong, solo female singers of any genre. I am the kind of person that associates music with people and situations. So don't be surprised if, after we spend some time together, you get random phone calls from me, with music blaring, just because the song reminded me of you. ;)
Books
I am a reader, so to list all of them here would be foolhardy(I love that word!) Anne Rice and Stephen King usually cast a spell on me. I will get so engrossed in a story, that my mood reflects what I am reading throughout the book, so it is a wonderful way to escape to unique and otherwise inaccessible places and lives. Here is a sampling from the past year: The 12 Steps for Adult Children, Women and their Fathers: The Sexual and Romantic Impact of the First Man in Your Life, Will I Ever be good enough?: Healing the Daughters of Narcissistic Mothers, Sisterhood Interrupted: From Radical Women to Grrls Gone Wild, Tuesdays with Morrie, Al-Anon's 12 steps and 12 traditions, Angela's Ashes, The Snow Garden, The Hard Truth about Soft Skills, My Mama's Waltz, Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office 101.
