These are a few of my favorite things......

Well, I suppose that when someone asks me to share what my favorite anything is, I cringe. My mood dictates what my favorite music or movie is and it can change from moment to moment. I'm also a self - described dork and to people who don't know me well, I'm also awkward and corny. So at this particular moment my favorites are:

Movie

Pride and Prejudice - I love the 1940, 1995 and 2005 adaptations. However, my favorite is the 2005 version. I love that this story is timeless in its' elements of misunderstanding and the turmoil of unrequited love.

Music

I love it all. I'm a channel surfer in the truest sense of the word. But if I had to be honest, I do frequent the country channels more than the others. Sometimes I love to listen to music that makes me analyze or think about the world around me and other times I need a pick me-up or to just relax. It just depends.....

T.V. Show

Grey's Anatomy - I've always been a sucker for the medical dramas. ER, House and I grew up with MASH.

The Back to School Staples Ad - "It's the most wonderful time of the year". Having worked in retail in the past, I can appreciate the true meaning behind this commercial. Normally, at Christmas the kids are ecstatic as the adults run frantically around attempting to placate to their hopes of a perfect Christmas. What they don't realize is that when they head off to school each year, their parents have been secretly celebrating. Back to school is the equivalent of Christmas for parents.

Comic
This one is difficult because I don't really have any. I love the funnies in the Sunday morning paper, if that counts. I grew up with The Peanuts and B.C.








So, these are a few of my favorite things, for now.
