I'm in between Christmas celebrations and I'm bored.  LOL  Saw this meme and figured why not.  I know Christmas is technically over, but I'm getting most of my gifts tomorrow, so I can still technically wish for things for Christmas.  LOL  None of these are in any kind of order.

I got the sweetest Christmas gift tonight and just had to share.  A group of friends and I do a Secret Santa swap every year.  We decided this year to do things that didn't cost any money seeing as money is so tight for so many this year.  So, we had to tell what our favorite musicians, tv characters, poets, etc were.  My Santa made me some beautiful graphics and I just had to show them off. :D  Thanks again Jas if you read this.  I LOVE them!  Love that she combined my favortie actor and poet I think it works well.  Also love that she combined my fav tv couple and my fav singer. :D  And finally of course I love Dessie all wrapped up and ready to open.  Hee!
 

        

Just realized I hadn't done this yet.  So here we go...
 

November Favorites
 

Movies
 
 
I love all the Charlie Brown movies, but this one is so funny.  This scene is my fav part of the movie.  Love the toast and popcorn dinner.  LOL

 
Love this movie and just watched it again on DVD.  Everybody connected with this movie did an awesome job!  Now if JJ would only return for the final season of Lost. :P


Television

 
Top Chef Las Vegas came to a close and my fav Chef Michael Voltaggio won!!
 
 
I so love this show and these guys!  They are the final tv show ship I have.  Now this is technicaly cheating cause this episode didn't air until last night but the Christmas episode was too adorable.  The little pecks on the cheek and you just have to believe...I believe...makes me think they may give them another go.  I hope so anyway.

NCIS Los Angeles - Love this one too.  Not as much as the original, but the cast has quickly grown on me.

People
 
 
Before November I really had no idea who any of these people were except for Ingrid.  Her and Greg Laswell's concert introduced me to all of them and now I am a fan of all of their music together and individualy. 

Elliott Jacobson plays drums for various people including Ingrid.  He also has a healthy musician blog with different healthy options and ideas.  Have to admit I've snagged a few from him.  He also posts the most hillarious behind the scenes YouTube videos from Ingrid's tour!! (Harry Potter shots, dizzying sound check, why Elliott sucks at drums..heh)  Can't wait until he gets his "EPIC" one uploaded.  LOL  I asked him when it was going to be finished via Twitter and he promised soon, so....  Oh and Lisa - he's from Houston!

Dan Romer is Ingrid's producer as well as jack of all trades.  He plays various instruments, sings a duet with her, and even plays the baritone (quite horribly I might add :P)

Greg Holden is a born and bred Brit who recently moved to NY.  He's an absolute doll and a great singer.  He's so good to his fans!  But he needs to get "Bar on A" on iTunes so I can have it on my iPod and don't have to keep watching it on YouTube.  LOL

Chris Kuffner plays bass for various people including Ingrid.  He is a Lost freak and very funny guy.

Bess Rogers plays guitar for Ingrid as well as having her own solo career.  Great voice, love her spunky attitude and her hillarious videos of behind the scenes stuff.  Especially the grape vid that she and Ingrid did.

Allie Moss plays guitar for Ingrid and sings with her as well as having her own solo career.  She's so very pretty and seems so sweet.  I love ot hear her sing.  She also posts hillarious vids of behind the scenes stuff.  Although watch out for the very gross ear cleaning vid.  LOL  shawcrossedlove  and I learned to heed Allie's warnings about stuff being gross the hard way. :P

 
Cary Brothers - beautiful voice and awesome songs - he's from Nashville so that gets him bonus points ;) If you haven't listened to him, give him a shot.  I love soooo many of his songs!  Oh and he's not bad looking either. *G*
