So I noticed a Jan 2021 post listing "Things I'll get to one of these days." And lol my Spring 2022 update on that would be:
1) "Get back to my classic Who rewatch." One of these days is still not now. My Britbox account is used less for Jane Eyre rewatching and more for Death in Paradise, but yeah. (facepalm.gif etc etc)
2) "Watch Thirteen's first season blu-ray that has been sitting unopened on my shelf since LAST [2019] Christmas. I mean...." Oh. Right. I own that. Huh.
Things I did instead...
1)Studiously ignore my original fic Open Scrivener stare blankly at words. Turn on Youtube and watch DIY vids until I fall asleep.
2) Read a fuckton of books.
Maybe I should just review books instead. Like I have a goodreads account but I feel weird reviewing there unless I REALLY need to remind myself why I just can't with this book. I mean I guess I kinda feel weird writing reviews the actual author could actually see. (Except that one non-fiction book I accidentally read that was totally horrible and pretty racist because fuck that guy.) I also find the five star system a little baffling so I just use it for myself like:
* = why did I read this why why why/brain bleach/rage/sob/traumatized
** = I had a terrible time but I don't need brain bleach
*** I liked it in a generic way but I'll probably not give it another thought/The library had it so I read it *shrug*
**** It was pretty good, I might think about it/re-read it
***** Loved it/bought it/hoarding it from the library/flipping my shit in fangirl meltdown
Looks really all or nothing spelled out like that, lol.
I dunno. I'm just as likely to go sulk on Youtube a lot instead.
