TSS: January Wrap Up
Reading

TSS: A year of blogging… Looking back at 2009
Okay technically I started this blog in February so it really hasn’t been a year, yet. However, I did start reading the first book I reviewed some time after Christmas last year so it’s close enough. Also, I wanted to start fresh with my reading count at zero and to be able to start [...]

TV Shows – Week of November 2nd
NCIS [7x06 - "Outlaws and In-Laws"] – While I did like the main plot of the episode my enjoyment was ruined by Tony’s behavior throughout the episode (see my previous post).
