List Day
So I was chatting with a friend of mine today about a number of TV shows, and it occurred to me that I've wanted to create a few lists: a list of books to be read, a list of TV Series already watched, and a list of TV Series to be watched. Yes, I realize I'm lame, and that, in order to find the love of my life, I'll have to look for someone who is willing to stay home randomly and watch entire serieseseses of TV shows... ugh. Hopeless. I get it.
Anyway... on to the lists.
Book List
The Secret Girl by Molly Bruce Jacobs - IN PROGRESS!
Searching for Life: The Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo and the Disappeared Children of Argentina by Rita Arditti
The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger

Looks great, although i fear i may never see you again... and yes, you may find it hard to find true love b/c he's probably also at home watching entire seasons of tv shows with his dog and cat.
Think about adding Weeds to your to-be-watched list. It's pretty great in seasons 1-2, kind of sags in season three, but kicks it back up in season 4 (which is going on now).
I just got The Wire Season 5 the other day, so I now have all 5 seasons when you're ready to start... (I haven't watched much of 4 and 5 at all, so gimme a little while...)
:o)
"The Descendants" Is a FABULOUS book. I could not put it down...you should put that higher on your list... :)
Enjoy your reading and thanks for the lists - it makes me add to mine.
Hugs,
Annie
ps. I hope you are having a great day.
pps. Mine and Tom's seasons to catch up on are LOST and HEROES..we loved them.
You should join Goodreads! It's a WONDERFUL website, helps you keep track of what you're reading and plan to read. And you get great recommendations!
(Sorry to sound like a spam ad, I just really love Goodreads.)
I have Firefly, Battlestar Galactica and the Wire. Looks like jwer has you covered on the Wire though. Working on season 3 of Six Feet Under now ... great show. Also have Weeds if you take SC's advice and add that to your list. Let me know if you want to borrow any of them.
Oh my god, start Six Feet Under first! That show is AMAZING. I fell in love with Nate, played by Peter Krause. That probably had something to do with him looking like my husband. :) But seriously, it's a great program.
