A Man in Love (anything with Peter Coyote) - Lost in Translation - Borat - The Fisher King - The Swinger (1966 - criminally not on DVD) - Kipperbang (Thanks to Sherri and region-free DVD players, I own it!) - Gregory's Girl. Anything by Peter Greenaway, Adrian Lyne, Kevin Smith or Michael Apted, evidently.
Television
Weeds, Nurse Jackie, Hung, Little Britain, Degrassi, the AussieKath & Kim and the wonderfully absurd Summer Heights High (do what it takes to see them). HGTV shows, in my desire to go green (and awesome) for the new abode. Locked Up Abroad and Taboo on Nat'l Geo. and anything with Ricky Gervais.
Books
I don't read books - I devour them. Mostly biographies/ autobiographies about people who have lead lives that intrigue me. Also check out some of the lesser-known work of Roald Dahl and C.S.Lewis - there's far more to them than Wonka and Narnia.

Been there, done that, got the stains out of the concert t-shirt as I now teeter somewhat gracefully on the brink of eternal spinsterhood. But at least I'm doing it right: in really, really fine lingerie.
But I'm not so jaded to not be terrified, intrigued or curious from time to time; I hope that never changes and that the people I meet continue to pleasantly surprise me.
The sea is my place of worship and travel quenches the rest of my thirsty soul. If you casually suggest "Let's go to..." or "You should come...", don't be surprised when I do show up. I frequently do because the girl simply can't help it.
Equal parts saltwater and gypsy in my blood.

Who I'd like to meet:
Who I'd Like to Meet:
"People who know when to sing along and when to shut up."
Most of the folks on my friends list know me in real life. So I'd just like to find more of the people I have met in the past if I even vaguely recall myself smiling in their company.
Clearly, I did jump into myspace with unbridled enthusiasm, but I can't say I regret it. Even if more time is now devoted elsewhere.
I consider myspace, aside from only being what you make it, meant for some things and not others (don't share what you don't want the world to know!), so it better be good if you care about the impression. Especially if you're marketing yourself or a band. I'm meticulous about my work here which is probably why I'm asked to do what I do.
Who I'd Rather Not Meet:
People who salt their food before tasting it or who leave the water running while brushing their teeth.
I also try to avoid pretentious Americans who use Brit spelling or grammar (colour, loo, etc.) to appear worldly or sophisticated (or whatever). FYI - it has the opposite effect unless used in jest.
If you're looking for a sugar mama, a bit of nookie on the side, someone to use as an "in" (I'm not exactly well-connected) or if your Top Friends shows anyone sporting a thong, you're most certainly not who I'd like to meet. Thanks and good luck.
Hey Danielle, if you have some time in the near future it would be great if we could talk about getting our myspace page a little more user friendly, updated, and more presentable etc. etc. I know it needs some much needed help and I'm defiantely not good with the whole designing thing. Get back to me when you can. Thank You!!!
Just wanted to see if you were alive or Drying up in Crony Florida??? HAHA In any case contact me with a cell number to text you & stay in closer contact LAND LINES are so 90's! lol
