So, happy 2010 guys! I hope everyone had a good New Year. Ours was pretty quiet at home, with a sickly [livejournal.com profile] imthelobster, but we did manage to stay up until midnight, so that was something.

I'm trying to decide if I want to set book and movie goals for 2010. I already have my big writing goal, but my reading has been up and down as of late, so I'd kind of like to have something to strive for. I was thinking like 50 books, but then I think maybe that's too low... opinions?

personally, i'd rather set a lower goal and blow it out of the water than a higher goal that i can't do, because knowing i can't meet my goal discourages me. how many books did you read last year?

I don't know. :/ I lost my list ~halfway through the year, cause I had it in a .txt file instead of on lj, and then I never bothered to try and rebuild it. Or even start over, heh.

you are useless.

I think fifty is a decent number, especially because you're not really worried about making sure you read more than the average year, just that you get your standard level of reading in.

Also, because it is sort of an unstated goal of mine to get back to 50. 22 this year, Jesus Christ.
