| | Allison Claire's Blurb About Me: I didn't know there'd be this much talking. * I like music quite a lot, so I listen to it quite a lot. * One day I'm sure I'll have to enter the real world, but for now I'm a student, writer, purveyor of good times, and general artisan in my Midwestern locale. * My ambitions include travel, happiness, and meeting interesting people. Incidentally, I find musicians and music lovers to be of particular interest because they speak my favorite language. Who I'd Like To Meet: Anyone who will not issue me bodily, mental, or emotional pain. * Anyone who believes in something enough to say it respectfully. * Anyone patient enough to teach or learn. * Oh right. Specifics. * Musicians: Cake, Wilco, Starlight Mints, Metric, Ani DiFranco, David Bowie, Marilyn Manson, Arcade Fire, Grizzly Bear, New Pornographers, Arctic Monkeys, Beastie Boys, Bart Davenport, Blackalicious, Dance Hall Crashers, Fatboy Slim, Erykah Badu, Of Montreal, Psapp, The Blow, The Eel(s), TMBG, Vampire Weekend, Tom Waits, Jack White, Brian Jonestown Massacre...this list only continues into a non-exclusive et cetera.

Movies / TV: I don't watch too much television unless someone else turns it on or I'm home watching kiddie shows on public broadcasting about cartoon aardvarks or lion puppets. * I'm also a sucker for kid movies, so I can't wait to see: Where the Wild Things Are. * Classic Movie Standbys: Labyrinth, Alvin and the Chipmunks Adventure, The Princess Bride, Any Muppet-Related Film Ever Made. * More Recently: Across the Universe, Kill Bill, The Science of Sleep, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Prestige, Love Actually.
