I haven't posted in over a month and the sad thing is that I still don't feel like I have anything to post about. But I'm going to give it a try nonetheless, because this is getting ridiculous.

My Year in Entertainment
I'm trying for the 100 / 100 / 100 trifecta this year. That is: 100 movies watched, a 100 television seasons completed, 100 books read. I'm totally counting rereads/rewatches or I'd never make it in a million years. So far I'm doing pretty good on the books and movies front (13 books read, 9 movies watched), but the TV seasons category is probably not going to start paying serious dividends until all the May season finales.

Capping
Last year I tried to get back into capping, and I must say, it's paying off this year. Over my holiday/Christmas I capped the first discs of three of my DVD sets:

• Community, season 1


• Fringe, season 2


• The Good Wife, season 1

And I also started my Farscape rewatch (now stalled) by capping the first six episodes of season 1.

I Shop, Therefore I Am
I've been spending TONS of money this month. Most of it came from Christmas/birthday money, so it's not too bad (my favorite purchase was a Global chef's knife. Cost me my parents a fortune, but soooo worth it. Damn, but a good knife will just make your day when you're cooking), except that last night at three am I went on a spending spree at various online clothes stores. ( My favorite purchase. )

I Watch TV, Therefore I Am
At least, that's how it used to be, but while I'm liking a lot of stuff, I'm obsessive about nothing right now. The closest I get is Fringe, but it's been so long since we've had a new episode that it's not at the forefront of my mind at the moment.

Recently, I have watched:

• ( Spirited )


• ( Downton Abbey )

So that's the state of me. I'll try not to crawl into a hole for another month. If I could only find the inspiration to picspam...

So, in accordance with the poll results, I started with ( Friday Night Lights season 2. )

And I have a few thoughts on Shows Currently Airing.

( How I Met Your Mother )

( The Office )

( Top Chef )

( Being Erica )

( To Love and Die )

Also, I've been watching a lot of movies (well, for me), ( so here are a few reviews. Spoilers for Revolutionary Road, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Slumdog Millionaire. )

This post is private on my LJ, but that's mostly because of clutter issues. I figure not many people will visit my IJ, so I may as well keep it unlocked here.
