Pop culture has always been my primary hobby. When I was a kid, everyone quickly discovered that the only way to keep me quiet was to set me directly in front of the television. It worked, and still does.

When I am not writing or blogging, I am watching TV, reading, going to the movies, listening to music, making lists and organizing everything alphabetically.

I am a huge fan of Oakland A's baseball, wine country, Matt Nathanson, Lost, Garden State, Kate Winslet & Cate Blanchett, fresh mozzarella, mountain air, laughing out loud and often, and traveling to simply sit still in an amazing setting.

Although I was raised and went to school in Southern California, the Bay Area has been my home for the past 13 years. I live in a quiet suburb with my better half and our two cats, Mulder & Scully.
