| Introduction | Not here to treat anyone, please understand. So no matter how it might feel or look, I can't be your therapist. If someone tells you that you need it, however, do as my dream license plate suggests, Get Therapy. Community mental health centers can be great, and they're easy on the wallet. |
| Interests | Music, culture, history, advertising, videography, television, (not just any television), blogging, Torah, people people people, people, people, an occasional furry animal or lower level genus |
| Favorite Movies | Any Christopher Guest movies, most chick flicks, musicals (Singing in the Rain and Sound of Music, obviously, and DreamGirls yes, Phantom, no) action that isn't too graphic (Lassie and Beethoven) I'll walk out on movies, no problem. I liked Legally Blond, In Her Shoes, Charlies Angels (One and Two), Jean de Floret, Cinema Paradisio, The Illusionist, Look Who's Talking. My Best Friends' Wedding, Nothing sad, thank you. The movies that have couples fighting are usually good, and when I think of the names I'll let ya' know. |
| Favorite Music | Puccini anything, especially La Boheme and Madame Butterfly, and Rossini, The Barber of Seville, old Paul McCartney/John Lennon, early Beatles, one-hit wonders, all of them, and lots more that i can't name. Hate the Monkeys, don't know why. |
