YES, I am so greedy that I have two Amazon wishlists! Actually, I have FOUR...one for each of my two kids, one for me, and then a separate one just for the knitting books that I want, because there were so many! I love presents, surprises, good mail days, and lots of other "swappy" things...including seeing someone's else's happiness when I can return the favor.
I love Jack Johnson, Alkaline Trio, Barenaked Ladies, The Beatles, Coldplay, Pussycat Dolls, Lily Allen, Grateful Dead, Garth Brooks, and a whole lot more. We usually just listen to the rock station on the radio, but my iPod is always going at work.
I love sci-fi and fantasy, as well as any creative and interesting fiction, and even some non-fiction (GASP). My favorite authors are Charles de Lint, George R. R. Martin, Laurell K. Hamilton, J.D. Robb, and Jack Kerouac. I also enjoy books on self help, health & spirituality, business, poetry (e. e. cummings, allen ginsberg, shakespeare).
Again with the sci-fi and fantasy! Star Wars is a CLASSIC, also The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I also love Baz Luhrman films, such as Moulin Rouge or William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet. Love Legend, The Princess Bride, Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, any of those fantasy movies from when I was a kid.
I watch a TON...House, Heroes, CSI (the original ONLY), NCIS, Moonlight, Bionic Woman, Entourage, Grey's Anatomy, Supernatural. Plus shows like Scrapbooking and Knitty Gritty on the DIY network!
I love any and all crafts really...I spend most of my time knitting and scrapbooking, though I also enjoy crochet, painting, printmaking, home decorating, and computer design. I want to get into altered books, ATC's, quilting, spinning, weaving, stamping, cardmaking, origami, and pretty much everything if I ever have the time. I've also made handmade paper, beadwork projects, sculptures, pottery, you name it. I'll try anything once! : )
I love green and blue, but all deep jewel tones are beautiful. For some reason I just tend to be drawn towards cool colors! I am definitely NOT a pastel person. I like colorful things in general, so anything with a bright mix is appreciated!
I like lizards, giraffes, koalas, and really any other animals. Including regular old cats and dogs (I have two dogs and numerous barn cats).
I really love fairy tales & mythology, Gestalt and Jungian psychology, world religions, American football (Pittsburgh Steelers and Ohio State Buckeyes), UFC (Mixed Martial Arts fighting), geeky technology stuff, pampering items, and anything handmade.
