#47 Watch 20 new-to-me movies

Well, I can update the blog already.  Cliff and I watched a movie last night/this morning (happy new year, by the way).  We decided to watch The Bounty Hunter.  A little Jennifer Aniston never hurt anybody.  Hubs was even the one to suggest it!  It was relatively painless but it was also much too long...1hr 50 mins...so, about 40 mins too long for me.  Cliff fell asleep and I don't even remember most of the conclusion because I was just waiting for the movie to end.  Funny thing is, before we picked the movie, Cliff said it was rated a 3.4 for me and we were talking about how Netflix usually knows me pretty well and I'd probably end up giving it a 3.  Well, when he looked at it, instead of looking at what Netflix thought I'd rate the movie, he looked at what the average rating for the movie was.  Guess what?  It said I'd give it a 2.  And yeah, I gave it a 2.  Man, Netflix, you just know me so well!  Anyway, it wasn't a bad movie, it just wasn't a great movie, or even an okay movie...it was a meh movie.  Oh well, at least that's one more movie that's going towards my total movies watched!  

I put #47 on the 101 list because even though I have a Netflix account, I tend to end up watching TV series instead of movies or movies I've already seen and know I like.  So 1 down, 19 to go.  Oh, and I decided that if I reach this goal really early this year, I might have to up the goal to like 100 or something.  Who knows, only time will tell!

1001 Days to do 101 Things

Well, it's the beginning of a new year and I've never been one to make resolutions.  This year, however, I decided to make some resolutions on crack...or do a 101 in 1001 list...whatever you want to call it.  I created this website in order to track my progress (or lack thereof).  This way, maybe I'll sort of have a record of what's going on in life, books I review, movies I see, recipes I try, DIY projects I attempt...all that good stuff.  I figure it'll help keep me motivated and force me to keep up with my list.  Plus, I've always been good at doing things once they're on a list for some reason...  So anyway, here's hoping!  Oh, and I've already crossed on thing off my list: creating this website!
