It amazes me that the first month and a half of 2009 is already a thing of the past. Part of me wants to make the following joke: I think VH1 is premiering “I Love the January of 09 next weekend.” But part of me thinks that would be super lame.
For posterity, I’m going to quickly sum up the month of January in a nifty list. (I’ll hold off on the half of February until sometime… in the future.)
- I rang in the new year with Jason, Stephanie, and her family. There was merriment, a plethora of drinks, buffets of great food, and lots of games.
- I got the helix of my left ear pierced.
- Jenna (my sister) and I went to the American Impressionism at the art museum downtown. I fell in love with the paintings of Allen Tucker and Maurice Prendergast; she loved those of Gifford Beal. Unfortunately, they weren’t selling postcards of the exhibition at the museum store, but I was able to pick up a few from the Louvre exhibit for really cheap.
- Jason and I went golfing. I really sucked but have decided that I’m not really interested in being good at golf; I just enjoy playing.
- I read four books. None of them were written for children.
- I watched twenty-seven films, including nine nominated for Academy Awards this year.
- I watched the second season of Boston Legal. I did this really quickly. Every time I encounter a new show or a season of a show I like in a trendy DVD boxset, I promise myself that I won’t become obsessed and watch it in the course of a single week. Usually, I break this promise.
- I set up a blog (with the help of Stephanie) and an account on Shelfari.
- I listened to The Cranberries and Sam Cooke.
