God my To-Be-Read pile has reached gargantuan sizes. One of my goals for this year was to shrink it until it was no taller than my knee; I have quite a ways to go, as you can see.
I really enjoy reading. It's the best form of escape; you can go anywhere, and see people and places you couldn't normally, and fantastic things can happen. And even better than movies, because you never have to worry about bad actors, or effects, because all of its in your imagination. And all of this has been said a million and one times, but it's still true.
In other news, my family watched Julie & Julia, and I still really like that movie. It's happy and fun and has great music, three of my favorite things in a movie, and it was based on a book based on a true story, which is always a huge plus. I also got around to watching 9 finally, and it was pretty good, though it seemed really short. It's funny how much longer movies have gotten; the movie was about an hour and 15 minutes, which used to be the norm, yet it seemed short. Meanwhile, Julie & Julia was almost two hours and that seemed just right.
(ETA: Whoops, I forgot to say the song! It was Baba O'Riley by The Who)
