My friending meme, the one I just sort of threw together and launched at you guys, is still going pretty strong! As is this one. GO. FRIEND. BE MERRY.
AND HELLO TO ALL MY NEW FRIENDS FROM BOTH OF THOSE MEMES! I promise not to scare you away... right away, anyway. XD
There is this sticky post that may help you get to know me/add me elsewhere and next entry I'll do some sort of "get to know me" meme that'll help, too.
It's New Year's Eve and I had plans for the first time in my life but since everyone in my house is sick with this super-flu thing I figured I'm needed at home. I think I'm finally catching the virus though, because I'm achy and my throat hurts. :/ My sister's working though, so there will be a lot of music happening in here. Just me and the dogs, OH YEAHHHHH.
AH 2010 I'M GOING TO MISS YOU. 2009 was so awesome and I was sad to see it go. But 2010 was the year of screenwriting! playwriting! creative writing! stage managing! DC! drunky times! concerts (outside and in)! Boston (♥)! Gay Bars! Quidditch! television production! charity events! I'm getting a little misty just thinking of it, not even going to lie.
When it came to the media challenge of the year, I failed miserably with the movies and worst with the games (;_;) this year, but reading-wise... is up to your interpretation. I went hardcore on manga and I... read a lot of the NYTimes on my phone? I'M SMART, TRUST ME. Also, I sort of... forgot about the movies after a while. I was so busy I went back and looked through my Miso account for some round-about dates on the last few months. So that may not be as accurate as last year's. Whoops?

Date: 2011-01-01 03:01 am (UTC)If you get a kindle do you think it will decrease the amount of "real" books that you buy read ?
Did you do a review of UP IN THE AIR ?
no subject
Date: 2011-01-01 03:09 am (UTC)I doubt it. I would probably use it most for downloading things I can't find in bookstores. PDFs, instruction manuals, classics that are public-domain, etc. Also as an easier way to read magazines and news without wasting trees and space. But if books come out on both e-reader and print and it's cheaper, I might get them for the e-reader. But I'm not going to wait around for a e-reader version when I can easily go to BN and grab the hardcover.
I think I did, but nothing really in depth. You would probably really enjoy it though. I found it really uplifting considering it was essentially about a modern hermit lifestyle.
