Somehow I came to the conclusion that I'm typically happier when I'm busy. Things I do to accomplish this include crafting in many forms, sewing, watching movies, listening to music, making themed mix CD's, and drawing.

A few bands include Self, Radiohead, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Tortoise, Ben Folds, Ratatat, Of Montreal, and Architecture in Helsinki.

As far as genres go, I pretty much like most anything except country.
