Movies, Bill, and Vinyl
Feb. 6th, 2020 12:05 pmOk abyss, it's some other time which means life update!
New year, same old me! Nothing really changed since my last post, other than new glasses and the growth of a minor Bill Hader obsession, but everyone has one of those now sooo--
I did see a buttload of movies according to my letterboxd account, but that’s par for the course in Liz-land. I'm single, childless, and have a decent paying job. Going to the movies is my social life; it's how I have fun on weekends. And it’s not just new movies, I see old movies too. I want to see every movie on the big screen if possible. Luckily, the local theater chain does Tuesday Night Classics for $5. I got to see The Thing, The Shining, This is Spinal Tap, Rebel Without a Cause, and Labyrinth this way. I love it, it’s magic to me.
What else....
Oh! Barry!! (Bill Hader, yes yes?). O-M-G, ya'll. You have to watch Barry. HAVE TO. My family keeps ignoring my pleas, but I still keep telling them regardless. WATCH IT. Check your local library for the first season if you can. Also, Documentary Now!, on Netflix. (Again, check your local library, they might have stuff you don’t realize they have) I could go on a thousand word screed about the brilliance of Doc Now.
I won’t, at least not in this post. Other things to get to.
So I kind of started gathering my random fanfic stuff together. And writing, just a bit. I don’t have anything concrete yet, but I really want to post something, soon. I’m carrying a journal around and writing what comes to mind. I still haven’t written as much as I’d like, but I think I’ve improved discipline-wise. Fingers crossed I can keep it up.
I’ve also managed to reorganize my book and vinyl collections. They were very haphazard for the last few months. It’s actually a relief, seeing everything lined up and not just stacked in a corner. And I can actually find my records on the first try! I’ve got four categories: A-L, M-Z, IMPORTANT, and SOUNDTRACKS. By “important”, I mean important to me. The Beatles and the Monkees live in this crate, along with some eclectic friends. And soundtracks is exactly what it says. Soundtracks are my weirdo favorite, just like my bookshelf of Tie-in novels.
I think that’s it, for now. Possible fic in the future, maybe an in depth review of the best DocNow episodes. Peace out!
