I love traveling. I genuinely wish I could do more of it. I've got an insatiable sense of adventure. I like to explore. I'm known for taking day trips to Boston. Every now and then, I need to get away from everything I know just to remind myself things aren't always this way.
I have a very small family. Meaning, in reality, that I actually have a decent amount of family, but they don't talk to me. The few people I do have, though, are everything to me.
I am dangerously overprotective of my friends, strictly because they are few and far between. You've never seen my temper until you've done something questionable to one of my friends. Lately, I've truly realized who these people are. I could never ask for anything more.
I work too much, but I know I need to. I don't sleep enough, but I get by. I think too much, but who doesn't?
Mostly, I'm a complete loser that manages to get by on a sub-par dry wit and a painful knowledge of the world around me.
音樂
Music keeps me sane. It's not necessarily doing its job too well, but I haven't killed anyone yet, so I'll still accept it.
I listen to a little of everything. If I like it, I listen to it. If I can dance to it, I probably like it.
I don't play as much as I used to, but I love everything about playing.
I'll find you about thirty times more attractive if you have rhythm. Just throwing that out there.
But really...genre doesn't matter. What matters is that it doesn't suck. I'll probably enjoy it.
電影
Anything I can laugh at. Movies are escapism at its finest.
Lately, my addiction has been awful horror movies. Just the combination of the "Acting," the terrible plot, the special effects...my god, you can't go wrong.
I love anything that is obviously not reality. I don't watch movies to be sappy and cry. I watch movies to forget why I should be sappy and cry.
電視
I don't watch nearly enough television to dedicate an entire section to it. The occasional episode of House. Baseball games when I can.
I tend to watch the people around me. You get more entertainment. Sit and watch two people having a conversation. If they're animated enough, you can come up with the best stories about them in your head.
This is the adult way of me saying, "I like to go out and use my imagination." And yes, thank you, I do still color as well.
書籍
I need to read more. I love reading.
Salinger is damn near deity status. The Catcher In The Rye..if you can't relate to that book, you never grew up. Hell, my cat's name is Zooey. I'm a bit of a Salinger fan.
Anything borne of the Beat Generation. Kerouac, Kesey, Burroughs, Cassady...etc., is probably not only in my collection, but partially memorized.
A recent addiction has been Hunter S. Thompson. That man is insane. I love him so.
Tucker Max, even as a woman, is hilarious. Christopher Moore writes about vampires and doesn't make it a stupid love story - good man.
And I won't lie. I adore Max Brooks. After reading his books, I can probably tell you more about zombies than you want to know. Like I said, I'm a loser.
Suggest something to me. Please. I'll try anything once. I love to read. I love anything I can relate to, or anything I can convince myself I can relate to. Books are the opposite of movies to me...reading, I tend to reflect internally.
Give me more to read.
偶像
I have a lot of heroes. The people shown below are people I lost far too soon. They were all phenomenal examples of how people should be. If the world was more the way they saw it...We'd all be a lot better off.
Born and raised in New Jersey, and yes, it does show. And yes, I am proud.
Music, friendship, my dog, and my car are the only things I have consistently that I need.
I'm not a drinker or smoker, but if you are, that's just fine. Hell, I've realized recently I find few things more attractive than the combined scents of cigarettes and whiskey.
I'm not my chronological age, I promise.
I still play outside, hang out with nothing but boys and am unafraid to get my hands dirty, but I promise you, I'm still one of the classiest women you've ever met.
I can easily go from proving to one person what an innocent gem I am to cursing out the next person to cross my path.
I flirt with everyone, but that doesn't make me anything you might imagine. Don't get any ideas about me, because I will completely crush them.
Yes, I do occasionally use a flick of my hair and a cute smile to get away with things, but if that doesn't work, I can still out-think you as well. So don't try anything.
I've got some phenomenal human beings in my life. One of them, I was lucky enough to get a second chance with. And I'm glad I have him. He's great.
I see no reason to kick an ex out of your life because you're not dating them. They once meant everything to you..why shouldn't they stay something? If you're self-conscious, I'm not the kind of person you should hang around.
I'm tougher than I look, and I've got a temper that has ended more than a few egos.
I work too many hours a week and am trying not to spend a dime.
I have this deep need to travel. Hopefully, it will start this spring.
I frequently get called "Mom" by my friends, just because I don't know how to not take care of people. It's in my nature to take care of those I love...and to clean up at parties.
I've got the greatest friends all over the world, I don't sleep enough, I work too much, and I'm happier than anyone you know.
"I'm selfish, impatient, & a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, & at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."
Marilyn Monroe
I also just got back from Jamaica with - a whole heap of incredible new ska, rocksteady and early reggae 45s on labels like Beverley's, Top Deck, Tuneico, Treasure Isle and more! - a selection of Jamaican vinyl LPs we've never had in the store before! We've also got a new batch of Roots Reggae titles (not yet available on the regular site) in the CD Sale, and a huge selection of clearance 45s. You can only find out about the Secret Sales by signing up for the Stubborn Records e-mail list at http://www.versioncity.com/lists

i'm sort of a bad friend cuz all my comments always involve bugging you to come see me play somewhere. i'll have to work on that. that being said this friday at chasers in keansburg it's BELATED ST. PATRICK'S DAY featuring: The Tea & Whiskey, The Invincible Gods, Full Of Fancy, The Break Evens and Thomas Francis Takes His Chances excellent way to pregame it for the Slackers/HCS show the next day i'm sure you'll be at.
