Closeted country fan. Listens to XRT to keep up with the Jones', but listens to US99 in the car.
Fan of singer/songwriters: Ryan Adams, Matt Nathanson, Jeff Buckley, Damien Rice, Bob Dylan, Simon & Garfunkel, Ciaran Flynn, Mundy, & Mark Geary. Like Brit/Irish bands: Bell X1, Radiohead, James, Snow Patrol, The Frames and the like.
Always a fan of Counting Crows, Toad the Wet Sprocket and (blush...) Hootie! Traditional Irish and much, much more. Embarrasing iPod find: Westlife - sentimental reasons.
Movies
Dead Poets Society, Glory, Shawshank Redemption and Life is Beautiful are on my all-time best list. Wind that Shakes the Barley (or anything with Cillian Murphy, apart from Breakfast on Pluto) and anything with Daniel Day-Lewis. Would the two of 'em not do a film together?!?!
But,that said, I'll watch anything entertaining (i.e. Boondock Saints)for 2 hours on a sunday.
Television
Bears and Cubs! Entourage and How I Met Your Mother are "can't miss" in my book. I regularly lose a few hours a week to Discovery and the History Channel. Strangely addicted to some reality programming (I'm a psych major - it's in my nature). Family Guy and anything with Ricky Gervais... so funny!!!
Books
Gatsby - was there a better book written? Nick Hornby, Colm Toibin, Malcolm Gladwell, Mark Twain, Alice McDermott and the Barrytown Trilogy and the like...
Heroes
My grandparents - they made a lot out of a little and never complained. Anyone willing to follow their dreams of writing, music and art (yeah, I'm talking about you Becka, Ciaran and Frid). And anyone who stands up for someone who can't stand up for themselves.

'Here's the question: what do you change? Whom do you call that you haven't spoken to in years? Whom do you realize has been toxic to your heart and drop with surprising ease? What trips do you cancel, and what trips do you book? What can't you be bothered with anymore? What's the new you like? Think about that, and then ask one more question. Why not just change it all right now? (Working on it...)' J.M 0ctober 29th.
likes: daisies, animal crackers, thunderstorms at bedtime, reading til my eyes burn, puddle-jumping, climbing under the covers on a cold afternoon, flannel pj bottoms & wooly socks, the smell of turf burning in Ireland, the smell of diesel fuel burning anywhere, sundays during tax season, sundays during football season, writing letters, getting letters, watching the weather channel, laughing to the point of tears, crazy looking gym shoes, pigtails, iced tea, headbands, updating my ipod, being the first one of my friends to hear a great new song, that first minute when my cell phone rings and it could be anyone, watching documentaries, watching golf, pretending to understand soccer (specifically Liverpool - since it's my godson's FAVORITE team), orange gatorade and my friends.
