Another week has come to a close! It wasn’t a bad week. I did my annual “If Lisa Had All The Power” post, which is something that I look forward to doing every year. On Tuesday, the Oscar nominations were announced with a minimum amount of drama. The Sundance Film Festival came and went. I watched and reviewed a lot of good movies. I cut back on watching all of the true crime stations. Somehow, I only managed to finish reading one novel this week. I’m a bit disappointed in myself for that. Still, tomorrow is another week and, overall, my January has kicked ass!
