Things I am currently loving...
Jan. 10th, 2011 07:41 pm- I got hit by another story idea today. I love when that happens. And this plot-bunny happens to be particularly awesome!
- Bought Tomorrow When The War Began on DVD. It really is an excellent movie.
- I currently have 8 books in my to-read queue. I really need to get on that.
But that includes the book I'm currently reading (Kathy Reichs' young adult book, Virals), and the book I'm currently "not" reading (Sarah Waters' Tipping the Velvet) only because it is so, so good, and I never want it to end. I want to curl up in its pages forever. I put it down with a sigh after chapter 1 because I just wanted to revel in the feelings, and you only ever get one chance at reading a book for the first time, so I want this one to last.
But I have so many more lying on the floor beside my bed, waiting to be read. Books in waiting. Dreaming books.
- I'm getting really excited about Torchwood again (spoiler warning for that link). It sounds like it's going to be awesome! I can't wait. I'm so exciting to see Gwen again, and to meet the new characters and find out who they are. I have no doubt that it'll be amazing and I'll enjoy it because I'm still a sci-fi geek at heart.
- As for my other favourite slightly-unhinged show which is so far removed from sci-fi it's not funny... My idealised Glee wish list for the second half of season 2, no matter how unlikely:
( cut for spoilers )
I know I can't possibly get everything on this list, but I know and suspect at least a couple of those are going to be coming along, so I'll be happy with those. And the rest I can write fanfic about. ^_^ I can't wait.
- Game of Thrones, the HBO series, will start, April 17. I'm still debating whether or not I'll watch it. It certainly sounds and looks like it's been done well, and Lena Headey's in it... but I'm already trying to keep up with too much other stuff. Maybe I'll just watch the first episode and then make up my mind.
- There's also new Doctor Who coming out at some point this year. Which I also want to keep up with.
- And before all of that I need to get some of these books read!
No, I'm not really complaining. If "too much to watch/read" is the biggest problem I have this year, I'll be ecstatic.
