Well, it seems more and more likely that I'll leave LJ for good. Just so sad that I don't have any active communities on DW. Well, I suppose I could go back to thinking of this as a journal, rather than somewhere to kill time by lurking in comms, but that would mean that I'd actually have to start writing... Not sure I have it in me to do that. Maybe if I grab me an app for my new iPad mini. ^^

I didn't do nano this year. Never came up with an idea, so I just let it pass.
I've been reading a bit instead. And listening to some some audiobooks. Neil Gaiman's "The Graveyard Book", and "Gardens of the Moon" by Steven Erikson. And I'm still working on "House of Chains", by Erikson. Soon done with it, and I have no idea why I've taken so long to read it. I picked up an old classic for my Christmas reading plans, a book I haven't read since high school; "The Hobbit". I might pick up "The Lord of the Rings" after that, all in honour of Peter Jackson's new film. The only film I will see with both my parents. :)
