Favorites
Color: Purple, 'cos nothing rhymes with purple.
Animal: Gotta be the giraffe. I mean, they should be awkward, but they're so graceful and beautiful.
Season Autumn for certain - even though it's the beginning of the end, it's always filled with such potential.
Movie: Moulin Rouge - it's gorgeous and the pacing is unexpected, and that ending? Guh! Kills me dead every single time.
TV Show: That's really, really hard, but I have to say Doctor Who has finally edged Buffy out of the top spot.
Musical artist/Band The Killers - they're so versatile. A band who can write their own songs and rock the face of Kenny Rogers? Solid.
Book: Again, so hard to choose, but... The Talisman by Stephen King. I have reread it every few years since I was fourteen, and each time, I love it harder.

Pushing Daisies
Which episode is your favorite? "Bitter Sweets" - Molly Shannon FTW!
What is your favorite outfit that a character has worn? (Pictures are encouraged, but not necessary) Chuck in a classic 50s A-line bedecked with flowers. So cute!
What is your favorite quote from Pushing Daisies? From Olive in the "Pie-lette," "Me too. I used to think 'masturbation' meant chewing your food. *awkward silence* I don't think that anymore."
When did you become a fan of the show? I was a fan of Wonderfalls, so as soon as I heard Brian Fuller had a new show starring Lee Pace, I tuned in from the pilot on.
The End
Anything else you'd like to add? I thought Daisies was going to be a guilty pleasure, but I really fell for it. It's quirky and sweet, and it makes me forget the world for while and just be a part of that colorful world.
