Sociology & Marketing of Popular Culture
- General Interests
music, the fine art of socializing, food, HGTV, animals, intellectual discussion, modern architecture, sustainable agriculture, Target, Pei Wei, singing, sunday afternoons, random spontaneous nights with people you just met...which happen kind of a lot in these parts... raunchy glamour, yoga, surreal situations, eyeliner, musk, kitsch, tapatio, monster trucks, making out, cheese, dark chocolate, good pinot grigio, better pinot noir, bloody marys on airplanes, swedish rokk, smart people, sexy people, comedians, misfits, sunglasses, over-accesorizing, the 80's, karoke, pole dancing, and painkillers. I also really really enjoy being single. really. monogamy is very last century.
