Here is a list of some things that I'm obsessed with right now:
1. Doctor Who. I finally did it, I started watching Doctor Who. I have watched 5 1/2 seasons in just under 3 weeks. It is seriously cutting into my reading time, which is really bumming me out, but I CAN'T STOP WATCHING. I only have a few episodes left on Netflix, which makes me both happy and sad. Happy because I'll get my normal life back, but sad because I'm in love with that mad man with the blue box! I also read that Matt Smith is leaving the show, and I'm very sad about that. I loved Christopher Eccleston and I loved David Tennant even more, so I thought I would never get used to the new Doctor, but he is fabulous! He is so emotional, which I adore about him, I'll be sad to see him go :(
2. William Shatner circa 1966. Captain James Tiberius Kirk is a total fox, he is also the most overacted character I believe I have ever seen. In addition to watching Doctor Who, I've also been watching Star Trek, the SUPER old ones. I must say, I think they did an amazing job finding actors for the new movies that actually look like the ones from the original series. Chris Pine is far better looking than William Shatner and the same goes for Zachary Quinto and Leonard Nimoy, but they really look like younger versions of their original counterparts! I am in the first season of the original series, so I have many more episodes ahead of me.
3. Getting back into reading plays. I've been reading, well re-reading, some great ones, like The Glass Menagerie and several great Shakespearean plays. I forgot how much I miss reading something and figuring out how to stage it in my mind. I'd love some suggestions on plays to read, assuming someone is actually reading this blog, what are some good ones that y'all have read?
Anyways, that's all for now. I haven't blogged in quite a while and I figured I should put something up here.
