Photography, Scrabble, Design, Walking, Vintage Furniture, Birds, Beach-going, Rainy days, Writing, Growing things, Book reading, Window shopping, Coffee-quaffing, rooting for the underdog.
Music
Let me preface by saying I live my life by music. I often take walks while listening to my nano, pretending my life has a soundtrack. Strange but true. So this list, while extensive, is by no means comprehensive:
DMB, Ani D, REM, Jonatha Brooke, Interpol, Sarah Harmer, Postal Service, Gillian Welch, She Wants Revenge, Pinback, Jethro Tull, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Death Cab for Cutie, Dashboard Confessional, Modest Mouse, Belle & Sebastian, Ben Harper, Innocence Mission, The Cure, Killers, Franz Ferdinand, Sheila Nichols, Tori Amos, Iron & Wine, The Weepies, Jose Gonzales, Patty Griffin, Morrissey, Mark Knopfler, The Shins, The Decemberists, Sufjan Stevens, Midlake, Neko Case, Micah P. Hinson, The Sea & Cake, Feist, Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Andrew Bird, Amos Lee, Clap Your Hands..., Jose Gonzales, Lily Allen, Midlake, Neutral Milk Hotel, Nick Drake, Rufus Wainwright, Ben Folds, Beth Orton, Ryan Adams, Zero 7, Spoon, Seabear, Ingrid Michaelson, Fionn Regan, Deb Talan, Beck, Matt Costa, Vampire Weekend, Yael Naim, and of course, Billy Joel. (C'mon... "You're My Home" gets me everytime...)
Movies
What Dreams May Come, The Triplets of Belville, The Secretary, Eternal Sunshine, Love Actually, The Dark Crystal, The Princess Bride, Sex & Lucia, The Green Mile, Nightmare Before Christmas, The Last Unicorn, Amelie, Life Aquatic, Talk to Her, How to Make an American Quilt, Garden State, Stranger than Fiction, The Royal Tenenbaums, Broken English
Television
I hate TV, but when someone has it on, I am reluctantly drawn towards the flashing lights on the screen like a moth to a bugzapper. At that point, I prefer Pushing Daisies. And I will weep like a baby at Extreme Homemakeover, all the while having a giant grin on my face. I will get up and walk out of the room if someone tries to put on any other kind of reality show.
Books
White Noise, We the Living, Goodnight Mr. Tom, Like Water for Chocolate, Maus, Ender's Game, The Time Traveler's Wife (I can read this one 100 times and never tire of it), Amazing Gracie, The Griffin & Sabine Trilogy, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead, Animal Farm, White Teeth, Brave New World, The Bachelor's Cat, Cunt, Domino Magazine & Cottage Living
I’m a girl. A girl who is not high-end, high-maintenance, high-fashion, or high-tempered. I’m more high-fives, high on life, high-minded and height-challenged. I am not shiny and polished and yearning for impossible things. I am down-to-earth. I like weathered people and time-worn things. I like stories with happy endings. I like change. I like small spaces. I like red doors and neighborhood stoops and a sense of community. I like laughing children. I like sea glass green and sunshine yellow. I like good light. I like vintage quilts on antique beds. I like built-ins and nooks. I like simple. And good coffee. I like uncluttered, uninhibited, and understanding. I like big cities that encourage walking 'round neighborhoods. I like music. And decorating magazines. And movies with subtitles. You can win my heart with whispered conversations in the dark.
Besides being all those things, I'm also a photographer. You can see my portfolio on my website at www.deannbphotography.com.
Who I'd like to meet:
My paternal grandmother
Old friends
New friends - Craftsters, Drinkers, Dreamers, Thinkers
Calling all cooks!!! Don't want you to miss out on an amazing opportunity..........11 weeks of cooking classes for $50!!!!!!!!! Please check out my blog for more information
You forgot to add "I am a girl. A girl who will probably give you your birthday pictures at least six months after your birthday is over." By the way, technically it's over the six month period. :: Ahem :: ?? Burn me a cd, pleeeeeeeeeease! New laptop? Speedy laptop? Yayyy!

Thanks for the add, friend. Hope you and all your friends will stop by my page and take a look at my recipes, blogs, and upcoming classes. Like my Hands On Cooking Class in San Marcos (amazingly only $50 for 10 weeks of cooking class).
Thanks Deann! I am on their site now! One more question for ya... I am in CA too and want to find an amazing workshop to go to that is as close as possible to this side of the states. I really don't do wedding photography, my focus is family, graduates, maternity, newborn etc. Do you know of any good ones in the near future? I have tried searches but come of with old fuddy duddy stuff! I saw that the Secret was in SF last year... :(
The doggies are all doing really good. We're taking two of them to the Humane Society tomorrow since they are really friendly and should get adopted easily from there.
We're going to try to socialize the third one a little more this next week. It's crazy, but fun!

Is this weekend a pirate theme, matey? If so, I'm all set!
If not, I totally have to dump out my bag and start from scratch.
The doggies are all doing really good. We're taking two of them to the Humane Society tomorrow since they are really friendly and should get adopted easily from there.
