What are you reading?
nothing.
I went to the little local library and looked for something; I asked them if they had anything by Sylvia Plath or Mary Oliver and no, of course, they don't. They have lots of Danielle Steele or Nora Roberts but sorry that won't do today.
What are you watching?
Our routine is that after supper Mark, Emily & I sit together and watch an episode of whatever TV series we are interested in and have on DVD. We have watched all of Smallville, all of NCIS. I rented the first few episodes of Supernatural to see if we like it and we do. So, I ordered the first season on DVD to continue this ritual.
Seth and I watched "Knowing" with Nicolas Cage... meh (as Kristen would say)... kind of an interesting story but they just didn't pull it off in this movie.
"Push"... same thing, you would think they could have made this work but it just seemed kind of thrown together to me.
"The Heffalump Halloween Movie".. adorable
"Tinker Bells Lost Treasure"... I so love Tink.
We celebrated Halloween with our annual bonfire/weenie roast, a couple of friends, and the OU Football game. I sat in the house with Zoe the last half of the game because she was getting restless and tired of being held down by the fire. I didn't mind because by then I was worn out. Planning and executing even a small party is a lot of work.
Mark is in the studio this afternoon putting final touches on KP & Southern Rain's second CD. We hope to have it back from production by the 21st of November. That is when the band will be playing at The Wormy Dog in OKC. I'm sure you've never heard of the place but for red dirt bands it is THE place to play in Oklahoma. We've been trying for a year to get a date there and finally made it. It was one of the things on our big to-do list for this year. The only other thing that hasn't been accomplished is to get a song on the Texas charts. Kevin and I decided it was time to make a new, bigger list... and we put Billy Bob's in Ft. Worth at the top of that list. Look out Billy Bob's ... here we come.

Can your library get books from other libraries?
I checked out two books on our last library visit "Bel Canto" and "You On a Diet". I read exactly zero pages of each. I just couldn't find the time. I returned them, unread and felt awful for it!
Erin and I go back in a week so she can return her books and I plan on trying again.
We are reality t.v. junkies. We watched The Orphan last nigh. Scary!!!! We're watching The Proposal tonight. It's my night to pick the movie. :)
Kudos on accomplishing your list!!
Hahahaha on the meh. LOL
I felt the same way about Knowing and Push.
I'm reading The Black Swan on the recommendation of my brother-in-law. It's...weird. :) There has to be a point in here somewhere. For fun, I'm skimming through my Lucky Guide to Mastering Any Style, which I love. Fashion books = mindless joy.
Watching: Top Chef and Project Runway. It's so odd that they are on at the same time of year right now (on different networks and probably competing with each other). These are the only shows I watch with any dedication, but since we recently got Showtime again, I've been getting back into Dexter. John Lithgow is playing a psycho killer on it--I totally love him as an actor so it's been interesting.
I've been reading all the back issues of National Geographic that CV has been hoarding in his bathroom!
Watching: Dirty Jobs, V (meh), Californication (we love the Runkles), Fringe.
Aside from that, I've just been cooking and cooking and cooking. So nice to have a kitchen that supports the ART of cooking again. CV is so pleased!

Also, just a suggestion, ask Santa to bring you a Kindle. The unit is costly, but there are HUNDREDS of free books you can download to read.
I gave my old one to my mother, and she is just loving it. A library in the palm of your hand.
:)
