It is surprising how much I ended up doing considering December is one of those months that’s full of nonsense. (And there’s usually good tv that sidetracks me too, which it did.)

It’s funny just how many Treehouse Of Horror eps I managed to watch, I still need to finish the run I was doing with them (I only managed, as you’ll see, a few in January.)

I also finished a game, I think in one or two nights, with A Game About Digging A Hole. I only did it originally as a gamepass quest game (each month you get bonus points for playing 15 mins at least of 8 games) but I just… kept going. It’s one of those games where it’s very much… the title says it all about it.

Cinema films were a wild variety but I did like most of them. And of the other films I saw I really really thought Strange Harvest was great.

I also did manage to finish a fic, but I dunno. My heart was in it as I did it and I had hoped it’d lead to more and just… didn’t. Eh. (I know it’s partly cause of irl stuff but partly my confidence is so… eh)

Ended up listening to a bunch of Who audios this time. First a two partner which I finally listened to cause of watching Brain Of Morbius. It was quite a good two parter for the most part. then I put on ninth doctor ones, one I got with the Who magazine one set I picked upon sale. And damn the way it opened with the new series theme really took me back. I still need to finish the last story on the boxset though.

I had started Heated Rivalry and, despite loving the first ep I just haven’t watched more and I dunno why. I really should watch more. The landscape Artist of the year was an ep we missed cause of the traitors and… someone used AI. Like ?? What. They used it for a reference of a palace guard and I was like ?? Just look for one? I’m so….

Other than that there was Stranger Things (I’ve posted thoughts on that, though admitted I’ve become more soured on it over time), Seven Dials (which I really enjoyed) and other stuff I’ve mentioned in posts. Horrors Greatest was the last of the things I watched and I loved that The Loved Ones and Ghost Watch got shout outs. I need to watch that again.

While I didn’t finish a book I did get back to Halloween Party.

I’m surprised I watched so many cinema films, especially cause I didn’t see Anaconda till late cause of everything.

Hopes for this month
*Watch more Heated Rivalry
*Finish Welcome To Derry
*Start The Beauty
*Watch The House With Laughing Windows
*Cinema - Cold Storage definitely, hopefully the new Looney Toons, maybe other things
*Finish Halloween Party
*Finish Pokémon ZA
