Thing 37 - complete!
May. 13th, 2012 01:35 pm37. Take and post a photo a day for a month
Completed: 13 May 2012
Technically this was finished over the month of April, but I missed four days and kept forgetting to make up the last one until just now. But it's done, and it was nifty. I just wish LJ knew the difference between portrait and landscape photos. Oh well.

101. Watch all the DVDs I own but have not seen.
Current progress: 18/43
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World: I tried watching this once before but was bored stiff. This time was no exception, but at least I made it all the way through. I think my main issue was that all this action happened but very little character development, so I didn't actually care about any of the people involved. I suppose this film was starting at a disadvantage, since I'm not such a fan of maritime fiction to begin with, but wow. So not interesting.
So far this Thing is mostly showing me why I hadn't watched these DVDs before. Heh.
