That was kind of fun!  I found some new blogs that I really like!!

Seven Facts (I don't know how interesting they will be) about me:

1. I LOVE music!!!  I love listening to it, playing it...whatever!  I love it all!  I don't like one particular kind of music.  As long as I feel an emotional connection to a song, I love it.  :-)

 

Found on Photbucket.

I think music is a universal language that brings us all closer together.

2. I love all things Joss Whedon!!!  Especially Buffy!  And Dr. Horrible!  And Firefly!  Okay, let's just stick with all things Joss Whedon.  :-)  (Plus, you have to love anyone who is friends with Felicia Day!)

3. I have played the flute since I was a kid.  It's been a couple of years and I'm really starting to miss it.  I guess it's time to find a place to play.  I started learning to play guitar.  It's still a  work in progress...

Good flute pictures are hard to find!!!  This one was kinda cute.

I think the snowman thought I was taking his picture.

3.  Felt is my new favorite thing!  It makes every project cuter!!!

I want this for my iPhone!

Found at L'atelier de Luluu

4. I love purses!  I can't get enough of them.  I think the rule that your purse should match your outfit is a silly rule that is meant to be broken!

This is one of my favorites in my collection.  I call it my Doris Day purse because it reminds me of the great style in her movies.  It's probably nothing like that, but that's what I think of anyway.

5. I want to learn how to make stop motion animation.  I don't know why...I just think it is so amazing!

This is one of my favorites

6. I heart musicals!!!  I am a huge musical theater geek!  My favorite musical is Rent.  I'm sad that I never got to see it in New York but I did get to see it in Austin with Anthony Rapp (one of my favorite people) and Adam Pascal from the original cast.  Such an amazing show!!!

This is from the final broadway performance.  Try not to cry.  I know it will be hard.  ;-)

7. I love to sew...even though I don't really know what I'm doing.  I just love the idea of making something myself.  I'm so excited to learn more and make tons of great stuff!
