Since I last posted, I:
* Drove 12 hours from the beach to Kentucky for Christmas
* Took down all the Christmas decorations and shoved them in the attic
* Marked as many things off my to-do list as I could
* Watched Avatar again, this time in 3-D, as well as DVDs of Push (confusing, not as good as I’d hoped) and Knocked Up (okay)
Speaking of movies, I keep a spreadsheet each year of all the movies I see and another of all the books I read. Yes, I’m odd. Anyway, here are my top 5 movies I saw and books I read in 2009:
Movies
Avatar
Star Trek
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Gran Torino
Books
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
Graceling by Kristin Cashor
As Shadows Fade by Colleen Gleason

What were your faves of 2009?

Catching up on your blog! Sounds like you had a great vacation – I’m insanely jealous of a winter beach excursion, and also could spend ALL my time just looking at it, watching it, experiencing it.
One of my fave movies of 09 was “Star Trek.” We saw it at the theater, then watched the video New Year’s Day. How much of the “old” Star Trek must they have watched to actually get the mannerisms down, and how did they get Chris Pine to actually LOOK like William Shatner while being choked? LOL
Happy New Year, Trish! Can’t wait until your next book comes out!
