About Me: Oy, another one of these to fill out? I never know what to say, and I always end up babbling and then not recognizing it as my own when looking back on it. I'm going to cop out here.

Music: I like a lot of stuff, I know everyone says that. At this point I don't really have a favorite type or anything, but I can say that I'm not a fan of rap at all. I am, however, a big fan of the Merry Wives of Windsor and the Poxy Boggards. So I do fly my nerd/geek flag there.

Movies: Comedy and fantasy are my favorites. I'm also a fan of coming-of-age sort of things (like Stand By Me). Harry Potter and LOTR are among my very-most-favorites-on-the-planet.

I don't particularly care for horror flicks, for the most part.

TV: Stuff we DVR: Big Bang Theory, Heroes, Beauty and the Geek, Pushing Daisies, Mythbusters...

Stuff we have on DVD: Friends, Coupling, Murphy Brown, Star Trek, Sports Night, Scrubs, Arrested Development, Black Adder, Wonderfalls, Dead Like Me, Freaks and Geeks...

Books: Harry Potter, first and foremost.

Good Omens, Lamb, the Sweep series (called Wicca in the UK), ah hell, I suck at thinking of these things.

Elegant Gathering of White Snows (chick flick in book form)

Likes: Fun, relaxing time spent with friends. Doesn't matter what we're doing... theme parks, movies, coffee, dinner, board games, LARPing, costume making, discussion of mutually loved movies and books... whatever. I love parties, and party planning, but I guess I'm a geek in that I don't particularly care for parties that involve lots of booze and not conversation. Oh, and stand-up comedy. I LOVE stand-up comedy!!!!!

Dislikes: Egocentric pain-in-the**** people, one-uppers, know-it-alls (smart is great, overcorrecting everyone is not), lots of gore, hyper-critical people, fake people, immaturity (the kind that leads people to believe that they know all there is to know and not listen to the advice they've requested).

Hobbies: Harry Potter stuff (not into fanfic or slash), LARPing (duh), cooking, natural healing, singing, dancing (bellydancing is my most recent addition), working out (I swear I like doing it, once I'm there, it's getting there that sucks), reading, movies, gardening (although I don't to it often and I kinda suck at it, but I want to be good at it, that should count for something).

Vices: Fattening Starbucks drinks, buffets (OMG, it's like a sport), chocolate, airpopped popcorn covered in real butter and salt, Mochi (Green Tea flavored, those little ice cream things). Holy cow, these are all food-type vices. Uh... oh, also, I like to spend money. Not on stupid things or anything, but in the course of planning for the future I tend to buy things that we'll use (hopefully) in a couple of years. I like looking at floorplans for homes I totally can't afford.

Virtues: I consider myself a good friend. I always try to help if I can. I'm told that I'm funny, and that makes me exceedingly happy as laughter is one of my favorite things.

Heroes: Jo Frost (Supernanny), JK Rowling (I hope I get a bazillion dollar idea like she did), Douglas Adams, Daniel Quinn, Joss Whedon.
