Summer is almost over. (Overwhelming sadness) But I did manage to complete several of my summertime projects. I tuned and overhauled the piano. I learned to play the mandolin (still working on that actually). I refreshed myself on the ukulele -- and even learned how to spell it correctly. I read, finishing more fluff than lit. Finished three more in the Dresden Series. Started Wicked, The Dark Tower, and the Pendragon Series. Need dark winter nights to complete those.
Worked on my tan and am now watching it fade away. Started my diet. Cleaned the garage. Fixed the car.
Watched several tv series from start to finish (the only way they should be watched anymore): True Blood, Being Human, Torchwood (all three seasons plus the relating Dr. Who), The Monarch of the Glen (we are all allowed guilty pleasures, are we not), Robin Hood and Merlin. And the only reason I watched so much TV was that the only movie worth watching this summer was Harry Potter. May we never suffer through another writer's strike. (Not withstanding the Dr. Horrible by product)
So with that, maybe I am ready to return to the grindstone, if just to get a break :)
welcome to the blogging world - maybe you will help me learn a little time management and I won't live here in the Blogosphere quite so often now?
ReplyDeleteI like this list. I am thinking about how I should post my summer list as well. I didn't realize that you had the whole summer off. Do I still have time to watch an entire TV series? We just got DVR and I have been recording/watching The Biggest Loser. I don't konw why, but I enjoy watching them sweat. My summer vacation ends August 13th. I added you to my blogs to follow list:)
ReplyDeleteIt was nice reading what you're up to. I didn't watch any of the same TV or read any of the same books. I'm starting a book about Osage indians called Mean Spirit. It starts with a murder. That sounds pretty mean, don't you think?
