Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I love the Miyazaki films, have a soft spot for dry British comedies, and probably haven't seen as many foreign/indy films as I should have.

Music: Mostly I like groups that are just a little bit non-mainstream, like the Decemberists, Cake, and the Squirrel Nut Zippers. I'm hearing most of my new music through my partner, who's more into indy groups.

Books: I haven't been reading a lot of books lately, more things online. I'm kind of a current events nut.
