Lately, I have been listening to a lot of new country music, like Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton. But I like everything from bluegrass to jazz to rock and roll. My summer goal is to finish the “Game of Thrones” series – I am on book three, “A Storm of Swords.” On a daily basis, I try to read as much local, national and world news as possible. I just finished watching the third season of “Orange Is the New Black” on Netflix. So good! My guilty pleasure on television is “Say Yes to the Dress!” on TLC. “San Andreas,” the new mega-earthquake thriller. It was a nail-biter, and honestly made me a little nervous to visit the West Cost! I would have liked to have met Hunter S. Thompson, because he is one of my literary heroes and would have been such a riot to hang out with. I am looking forward to spending my vacation time camping this year. I am happy anywhere there is a lake to swim, a fire to sit around and stars to look up at. It’s a tie between reading, writing and listening to live music. Comfort food! Fried chicken, coleslaw, and macaroni and cheese. SPF 30 sunblock, a case of bottled water and a Swiss Army knife. I burn easily and am very practical! I lived in East Los Angeles for two years – so mi Espanol es muy bien.What music are you listening to these days?
