2010 Reading/Watching Report
Whoa! Almost forgot to do this.
This is the third year I've kept this list, and my totals are steadily dropping. Does this mean I'm getting a life or does it mean I'm now too lazy even to watch movies on TV?
Anyway, here are the 2010 totals:
Books read: 31 (down from 47 in 2009 and 106 in 2008)
Books read for the first time: 13
Rereads: 18
Fiction: 22
Nonfiction: 9
Best new book read: Cryoburn by Lois Bujold (a pretty good year for books, even though I read so few)
Movies watched: 57 (from 57 in 2009 and 122 in 2008)
In theaters: 7 (a lot for me!)
For the first time: 35
Re-watches: 22
Best new (to me) movie watched: Emma, 2009 BBC (contrariwise, a weak year for movies - I guess I used up the good ones last year)
Best new movie watched in the theater: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
TV season DVDs watched: 13 seasons/ 7 shows (from 20/7 in 2009 and 12/3 in 2008)
For the first time: 9
Re-watches: 4
Best new (to me) show watched: The Big Bang Theory (very tough choice between this, Sports Night, and Sherlock)
Plays seen in theaters: 6
Best production: Macbeth, Utah Shakespeare
I also attended one football game (Rice/Texas) and two basketball games (Rockets/Bulls & Rockets/Lakers) and, umm, I think that's about it. Oh, and I watched TONS of football and basketball (and baseball, and soccer) on TV.
