I have been…

~Reading~

I started A Tree Grows in Brooklyn last night. I haven’t read it in ages. It’s on my Classics Club List and on my 2013 TBR Pile Challenge list. 2 birds, 1 stone. Win!

~Listening~

There isn’t much music going on around here lately. Does American Idol count?

~Watching~

I recently started watching Doctor Who. I’m on season 2. Thank you Netflix. Thank you from the bottom of my nerdy little heart. It’s so cheesy and awesome. Also, David Tennant is deliciously hilarious.

Hello Doctor. I adore you.

~Learning~

The other day I watched The Dark Ages from The History Channel. It was fascinating! What a time to be alive. If you lived longer than 6 months that is. It wasn’t the most pleasant of ages. You can watch the trailer here.

~Feeling~

I’m feeling COLD. It’s 4 degrees right now. That’s better than the way below zero stuff we were getting but I’m ready to start bitching about how hot it is instead.

Hey winter? Suck it.

~Anticipating~

I recently won Aesop’s Fables from The Book Garden and Bleak House from Lost Generation Reader. I’m looking forward to their arrival.

Muahahahaha!

~Wishing~

My son got me hooked on The Walking Dead. While he was sick we watched the first 2.5 seasons in the span of a few days. (That’s about the only way he’ll spend time with me. He’s 14. He doesn’t think his mom is cool anymore. Sniff.) Now I have to wait a whole week for each episode. Boo to that! I wish it was on daily. I can’t get enough of the disgusting perfection of that show.

~Loving~

Interacting and chatting with fellow book lovers is the best thing that has come out of my decision to blog. I have the best pals on Twitter and Facebook. I appreciate those of you that read and comment on my ramblings here. You make me feel all smushy and gooey inside. I want to hug you. Is that weird?

Seriously.

I’ve seen this fun little meme zipping around the blogosphere (most recently @ Roof Beam Reader) and I’ve decided to give it a whirl!

~Writing~

Bloggish stuff, Twitter stuff, Facebook (mostly pics and links, but it’s all good I swear) stuff. Twitter has been a riot today due to this bit of fun.

~Reading~

I finished Love Anthony by Lisa Genova last night. Well, no..it was this morning actually. Somewhere around 2:45 AM. Zzzz. I’ll be starting How to be a Woman by Caitlin Moran any minute.

~Listening~

Two of my newest downloads: Owl City & Phillip Phillips

~Watching~

The 5th season of Breaking Bad. I heart Walter. I heart him so hard. (Jesse is fun to look at too, hubba hubba)

~Looking~

At the first few posts in the 2012 Virtual Advent Tour, and at the questions on The Broke and the Bookish Annual End of the Year Book Survey.

~Learning~

I recently finished The Round House by Louise Erdich so I’m currently exploring Ojibwe culture. I love learning new things more than anything. Send me a random fact and I’ll be your bestie.

~Feeling~

A little bit scatter-brained. This is not unusual. At all.

~Anticipating~

Take a guess? Christmas, duh!

~Wishing~

That I was finished with all of my Christmas shopping. Not yet. Soon? I hope.

~Loving~

All of those end of the year best of book lists that are floating around. The Huff Post Books List for example.

What are YOU watching, learning, loving, etc?
