Not feeling quite as optimistic as I was. Can I read 54 books in under seven months? I guess we'll find out!

190. Galileo's Daughter by Dava Sobel
191. Why Rattlesnakes Rattle by Valeri R. Helterbran
192. The Silent Boy by Lois Lowry
193. War of the Twins by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman

101. Watch all the DVDs I own but have not seen.

Current progress: 18/43

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World: I tried watching this once before but was bored stiff. This time was no exception, but at least I made it all the way through. I think my main issue was that all this action happened but very little character development, so I didn't actually care about any of the people involved. I suppose this film was starting at a disadvantage, since I'm not such a fan of maritime fiction to begin with, but wow. So not interesting.

So far this Thing is mostly showing me why I hadn't watched these DVDs before. Heh.

37. Take and post a photo a day for a month

Completed: 13 May 2012

Technically this was finished over the month of April, but I missed four days and kept forgetting to make up the last one until just now. But it's done, and it was nifty. I just wish LJ knew the difference between portrait and landscape photos. Oh well.
