shadowkatFirst sentences of the first post of each month (most of them oddly enough really were posted on the first day of each month, or at most the third..):
Jan 1 (12:44 am): Brrr...it's cold in Times Square, NY - in the 20s F, with wind chill, the teens (or below 0 degrees C.)
Feb: (it's a poem, so first line of the poem): chatter chatter chatter box box box
Mar: Busy weekend. On the way home from church, it was snowing...light and fluffy, then sleet, and now, hours later, I fear it is raining...which means a mess tomorrow for my commute.
Apr: Still plodding my way through Outlander - 80% of the way through now. Not sure I recommend it. It's awfully passive - too much of the action happens off-stage.
May: I read about this in Entertainment Weekly a few weeks back. About 30 years ago, Tippi Hedren (of Hitchcock's The Birds) and her husband, decided to make a thriller about a family raising a bunch of wild animals in Africa. To save money, they decided to bring the wild animals home with them and raise them as house-pets.
Jun: Go read this blog entry by Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer about their failed attempt to get an Art Spieglman cover and comic in their issue of the New Statesman.
Jul: So, I decided to join MD's book club. Haven't been in a book club in about six years, so we'll see how this goes. They did my book last month.
[ETA: The actual book I wrote, not one I suggested.]
Aug: Just finished watching a lovely little film by Lasse Hallstrom, entitled The Hundred Yard Journey - which is basically about an Indian boy's journey to becoming a chef in a small town in France.
Sep: Almost through streaming the netflix 13 part television series Bloodline, which is really good.
Oct: I love rainy fall Saturdays, when you can sleep in and binge watch television shows all day long.
Nov: WOO-HOO!! The Kansas City Royals won the World Series. (shhhh...don't tell my New Yorker fans that I was secretly rooting for them along with the Mets).
Dec: My workplace is trying to drive me crazy.
