My reading slump continues, but I’ve read some stuff. Credit goes to Joel who does these monthly wrap up things. I aspire to track my habits just as much, so this is a beginning.
Reading
- Neural Wraith by KD Robertson – 47% done. I am probably going to DNF this. I got about halfway through and realized that I was bored to tears. The characters are uninteresting and if there will be romance, it’s not happened yet. Add in that there is such a lack of diversity in this, you’d think you were reading Tolkien. All but one female in this had been of the Android variety, and while apparently that’s where the romance is heading, I just couldn’t care less. Human on robot action isn’t really something I’m interested in, it turns out.
- Re-read Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree – I love this book. It was a good re-read. Still 5 stars. Thought about reading the sequel, still might.
- A ton of fanfiction. I revisited several Keira Marcos fics, and then tried to get out of the Harry Potter fandom by reading some House and West Wing.
Movies and TV Shows
- Runaway Jury – Rewatched this in memory of Gene Hackman. Still a great one.
- Inside Man – Rewatched this one because it’s great. Love me some Denzel and Clive Owen.
- Ocean’s Eleven – Another rewatch. Another classic.
- Bones Binge – Trying to get back into this one. I stopped watching after like season 5 or something, so I’m trying to rewatch it. It’s slow going.
Podcasts
- The Herd – Most of this was at the beginning of the month pre and post Super Bowl.
- First Things First – Same.
- 2.5 Admins – Like this one a lot, but I’m behind again.
- Pick a Side – Another new sports pod for me to listen to. Not sure if I’ll continue now that football is over, we’ll see.
- Caps Off – Sports pod, new one. Probably will continue, even if the hosts piss me off.
For March
My goal for March is to finally get over this reading slump. My goal was 100 new books this year, and I’m way behind. I started off in January so well, read Ready Player One and haven’t been the same since.
I also want to do a better job of tracking my habits and time. With work being the way that it is, it’s time to do a better job of adulting.
Finally, I want to post here more and get some content ready for my other big project that I promised myself I’d work on this year.
Hope I do well.
