Hello, imaginary readers!

I am back again, to pretend that I will commit to posting regularly again, only to disappear for a long stretch of time.  It seems to be what I do.  However, this time I do have a list of things that I want to accomplish this year, and it will interesting to see what I actually get done.

Two things to note:

• This is not an exhaustive list (though after looking at the movie/TV shows portion, it seems exhausting), but I’ll try to maybe keep it updated and stuff.
• I never said these were noble goals.

I’m going to keep track of all the movies and books I watch and read this year, plus the video games I play through and DVDs/Blu-rays I buy, and post a status update at the end of each month.
