time and relative dimension in space

Thanks! I hate it.

I ended up watching The Star Beast twice: once live, but multitasking as I was technically At Work and had to do my job (pros of working from home at a non-customer-facing job: can watch Doctor Who! cons: can't necessarily give it my full attention) and then again after I got off work and didn't have to divide my attention.

This took a while because of things, but I promise I'm still working on this readthrough.

Happy 2023, several days late! I almost didn't bother posting this. But tradition is tradition, so even if I'm breaking it by being very late, at least I've got some stats to post.

2022 was very bad for me on several fronts, I hope it was better for you. And I hope 2023 is better!

According to last.fm, I listened to 7,730 tracks scrobbles in 2022, an average of 21 songs per day. I listened to 691 different artists, 465 different albums, and 3,038 distinct songs.

In 2022, I read 107 books according to Goodreads or 106 according to Storygraph, either way exceeding my goal of 100. I'm not 100% sure where the discrepancy is, but I suspect it's down to having reread something this year; both sites count rereads but I suspect Storygraph doesn't count it twice in the same year.

I don't track what I watch re: TV or movies anymore and I'm not going to stress myself trying to remember! Jodie regenerated and it was lovely and emotional. That was the big thing re: TV this year. Some other things happened on my other shows and it may or may not have happened in 2022. Who can say. I watched some movies and I have no idea when.

No live theatre for me this year, again.

It's been a bad year for reasons I would prefer not to go into. I have held down a job for a full year, which has been nice, particularly since it doesn't suck and people don't yell at me all day. Hopefully I will continue to hold it down for another full year. I have a couple trips scheduled in the spring which I am nervous and also hopeful about. I still have fears about plague but, you know. Can't be a shut-in forever.

I owe you a Doctor Who post; I just finished another two PDAs. Coming soon.

The (past Doctor) adventures continue!

The world is on fire and I don't want to talk about it.

So have a Doctor Who post instead.

Next episode (last episode of 2022 and not for several months which is wildly unfair): The Master! Kate! Tegan! ACE! REGENERATION! EVERYTHING HAPPENS AT ONCE!

I procrastinated writing a reaction post for the third Ninth Doctor Adventures audio so long that finally I was just like "oh well I'll just combine it with my reaction post for The Year of Martha Jones audio" and then I procrastinated that for so long that now I'm bundling it with the fourth Ninth Doctor Adventures audio ♥ it's fine it's fine life happens anyway here's the long-promised and little-awaited Big Finish post

( Doctor Who Ninth Doctor Adventures #03 Lost Warriors )

( The Year Of Martha Jones )
