My main interest would be just enjoying spending time with the people I care about and taking care of my friends. I am a Debate/Forensics nerd, love talking, laughing (used to be my only exercise routine) walking dogs, morning jogs, camping/fishing/road trips/travel, being a goofball, hanging w/ friends, being a goofball, going out to coffeeshops/dinner/the movies, bowling (and sucking at it) concerts, shopping a wee bit, (when I have money, which is pretty much never) reading, writing, drawing, DIY stuff, gaming, blogging (bridgetharman.blogspot.com) taking photos, and pondering the mysteries of the universe. Anything else ya' want to know just ask. O

Фильмы
Oh trust me you don't want my inner film critic unleashed. Come see a movie with me and you'll know which ones I like... however, I will say this: I am in love with Kate Beckinsale and Reese Witherspoon!
ТВ
Grey's Anatomy, The L Word, Big Gay Sketch Show, 30 Rock, AfterEllen.com vlogs, Exes and Ohs, Arrested Development, Sopranos, Weeds, My Life on the D-List, Top Chef, Real Time With Bill Maher, Adult Swim shows (Family Guy, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Venture Bros, etc. etc. etc.). Not that I have the time to watch any of these on a regular basis - thank god for DVR.
Книги
The last book I picked up was "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert and I absolutely loved it. "Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life" by Amy Krouse Rosenthal is also very good. I've been a Harry Potter nerd since about the 4th grade. But I love and hate books of all kinds. I could probably list my whole assortment of favorite classics, too, but I won't because I lack the motivation.
Кумиры
Batman would SO kick Superman's ass. He's like a ninja in this kickass costume while the rest of them are decked out in tacky spandex. Super Ninja Turtles too, oh yeah, go Donatello! Phoenix is my favorite X-men. But no, seriously?
My friends. People who are always there to lend a helping hand when facing tough times or when you're just plain drunk.
Oprah. Barack Obama. Judy Shepard (mother of Matthew Shepard). Ingrid Betancourt. People who recognize wrongs and take action to make them right. People who stand up for their values and make a difference...
Ginger Rogers is your classic movie persona. You can sing and dance like Fred Astaire but you can do it in heels. You can be sophisticated and fun loving at the same time.

О себе: I'm just a chick who dreams of someday escaping her mildly hickish town in Kansas to flee to Chicago. I consider myself to be an intelligent, insightful, goofy, opinionated, loyal, fun-loving, sarcastic, extremely gay, somewhat funny, pain in the ass human being just trying to find her way through the maze that is life. Someday soon I would love to join either Peace/AmeriCorps, become an English/Debate/History teacher or a Clinical Nurse Specialist focusing on Cardiothoracic surgery, get married (if possible...), & eventually have a couple of kids minus that cliche white picket fence. Some may call these miniscule aspirations, but according to Emerson... "To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.This is to have succeeded!"

I'm pretty sure that 'Sha Sha' is one of the greatest albums ever. 'Falling' is probably my favorite song. Plus, he's pretty attractive.... in that awkward way.
Have you heard the musical stylings of Ben Kweller? I think you might enjoy his 'muzak'. Or Belle and Sebastian. Here's a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFe0pSTJ3IA *I only ask because I checked out your music list and we have a lot in common.
