Not hardcore enough to be ultra nerdy, but it's not that shallow, either.

Reaching for the stars in the new year
I know I've neglected this blog lately. Hey, the holidays snuck up on me, and I've had to schedule in time to breathe. With things calming down, I've been cataloging my unfinished sci-fi shenanigans and realize I have a lot of them. So here's what I'll be doing in regards to sci-stuff in the coming year.


*Star* Books: finish the following books

ASIN: 0060892994
Product Type: Book
Amazon's Price: $ 10.49

ASIN: 1439171254
Product Type: Book
Amazon's Price: $ 17.92


While I do enjoy a good sci-fi book, books are rather time intensive for me. If I get everything else finished, I'll consider getting the following and starting on it.

ASIN: 0060741872
Amazon's Price: $ 7.49



*Star* TV: This should take a little less time, and these activities will most likely result in discussion posts.

1. finish Heroes and dive into Flash Forward; I'll probably marathon the latter this weekend or so since I'll have some time.

2. get caught up on the new Doctor Who; I actually saw most of Season 3 but want to see Seasons 1 and 2. I have season 1 in my Netflix queue and received Season 2 as a gift a couple years ago.


*Star* Movies: Be on the lookout for movie reviews galore! Some of my choices are cerebral, while some are utter trash. Yeah, I am capable of watching trash. Whether or not I enjoy it is another matter altogether. Here's what's currently sitting in my Netflix queue.

ASIN: B001MT7ZEW
Product Type: DVD
Amazon's Price: $ 5.99

ASIN: B002935GN2
Amazon's Price: $ 9.06

ASIN: B001FACH7S
Amazon's Price: $ 14.67

ASIN: B000JMK6LW
Amazon's Price: $ 15.77

ASIN: B000FS9FCQ
Amazon's Price: $ 8.90

ASIN: B000G8NXZA
Amazon's Price: $ 41.39

ASIN: B002T9H2MO
Product Type: DVD
Amazon's Price: $ 13.99


Trust me when I say that list could be longer, as I've been intrigued by some of the recommendations I've been getting from Netflix. I think all the movies I rate/watch confuse the computers that make recommendations. On the other hand, the fact that it can come up with "cerebral foreign science fiction" at all is kind of awesome. *Smile*


On that note, stay safe this New Year's Eve! I will probably kick off 2010 in this blog with my long overdue squeefest commentary on the Star Trek DVD that I haven't watched enough (for my taste, anyway).
