Psychonauts: This is probably my all-time favorite video game. I’ve played it several times since it was first released for the original Xbox. Here’s the official description of the game: “For years, the Psychonauts have deployed their psychically-armed operatives all over the world, but now there is trouble brewing in their own boot camp. A deranged scientist is abducting camp cadets for their brains! One student, a mysterious and powerful new arrival named Raz, stands alone against the lunatic. Raz must develop and unleash an arsenal of paranormal powers, including his most powerful weapon of all–the ability to launch himself telepathically into the minds of others.” The game is funny, creative and visually a knock-out. It’s available as a download on Xbox live, and it’s also on Steam.

Peanut M&Ms: The perfect candy, as far as I’m concerned. It’s colorful, chocolatey, with a salty peanut in the center. And it has an adorable mascot.

Suave Professionals rosemary and mint: I may be a geek, but I am a girl. And I love the way this shampoo and conditioner from Suave smells. Plus it makes my hair feel really clean.

Modern Family: Such a funny, funny TV show. An episode of this ABC sitcom is almost always funnier than whatever new comedy Hollywood is putting out.

Matterhorn audiobook: I can’t say enough good things about this book, one of the best I’ve read in years. It’s the story of a company in the jungles of Vietnam during the war, written by a combat veteran, and after reading it I feel like I understand that war so much more than I did before. What really sets the audiobook apart is the narrator, Bronson Pinchot (yes, from ‘Perfect Strangers’). He brings every character to life, to a point that it’s easy to forget it’s just one man. I rarely lose myself listening to a book the way I did with this one.

Kindle: I can’t believe how much easier it is to read on Kindle than a printed book. It’s light, there’s no propping it open. And Kindle new release books are significantly less expensive than the printed ones, so I can actually afford to buy books before they’ve been out a year.

TWIT: No, it has nothing to do with Twitter. TWIT stands for “This Week in Tech,” and it’s a podcast from former TechTV personality Leo Laporte. He gathers a handful of tech experts each week to talk about the week’s news. It’s sometimes funny, sometimes serious, but I always learn something.

TeeFury: There are a lot of daily t-shirt deal websites, but TeeFury is my favorite. Each night at midnight, a new design goes up, and it’s only available for 24 hours. Many, many designs are pop culture related, with Star Wars and Doctor Who especially popular. You can see a gallery of previous designs on the website. The tees are only $10.

Firebug: I use this browser plugin pretty much every day. It’s a wonder tool for people who build websites. It makes it so easier to diagnose and fix problems. My favorite feature is the real-time changes you can see on live websites.

Evato marketplace: I love the Envato marketplace. It’s a collection of websites where designers and developers can buy components for their projects. I’ve purchased everything from WordPress themes to graphics to plugins. The prices are reasonable, and there’s so much to choose from. Plus, each website has a new free file you can download and use each month.

Les Miserables: A late-breaking addition to this list. PBS recently aired the 25th anniversary concert of the landmark musical based on Victor Hugo’s novel (which I read in high school). The concert special was four hours long, but I loved every minute of it. The music is so beautiful, and it’s such a great story. I bought the VHS of the 10th anniversary concert, and this new special is a great follow-up to that. Plus, the woman who played Eponine 15 years ago portrayed Fauntine in the 25th anniversary concert. The Broadway veteran who plays Javert is a real highlight of the show.
