I'm Not Obsessed With... Politics - love it! I'm pretty conservative, so I lean toward Republican...I guess I'm a liberal Republican though:) I love INO because it's honest and reliable...Also, INO has the latest and greatest on my next obsession - Johnny Depp and other stars we love to read about!
Favorite Books: I just finished two books by Lolly Winston: Good Grief and Happiness Sold Seperately...I cannot tell you how wonderful both of these books are...these are a must to hand over to friends and family. If you know anyone that has ever suffered loss, please give them Good Grief...it's a wonderful story about a women who overcomes...you will laugh out loud, cry, get angry, feel bad and even shy for her. My father died when I was young and my brother was recently killed, so I read this book and it really helped me get through my depression and suffering...you realize that the world is still spinning regardless of your pain and you need to continue to spin with it. Happiness Sold Seperately is wonderful as well!
Favorite Movies: My favorites are Cool Hand Luke, anything with Charlton Heston (esp Ben Hur), Steel Magnolias is an all time favorite - I just watched it back to back and cried and laughed twice as much the second time! Also, I have to mention When Harry Met Sally and Prelude to a Kiss!
Favorite Music: Across the board - cleaning the house is always Gwen Stephani, Relaxing is Al Green or Van Morrison - Margaritas call for Jimmy Buffett. Of course, in the car alone, blasting the Rock Oldies are always fantastic - Led Zep, Scorpions, AC/DC, Jimmy Hendrix! LOL!
Favorite Designers: I just started shopping at Steve and Barry's. Everything is under 9.98, even the shoes, so it's right up my alley! But, I do love Anne Klein and Calvin for work...Jeans are always, always Gap.
Biggest Splurge: I'm pretty frugal, my biggest ouch was 1500 in Mac makeup - I felt old and icky, so I went for it.
Celebrity Crush: Johnny Depp.
