Watching:
Family: I randomly picked this up at the library although I'd never heard of it. It's a family drama tv show from the 1970's. The story lines are a lot cleaner than more modern tv shows, in that it just is what it is, rather than throwing in a bunch of superfluous drama, cliff hangers and other such baloney just to keep your interest, and for that I like it. Which isn't to say it's boring, because it isn't, it's interesting, but with valid plots and conflicts.

Reading:
The problem here is that I really did plan to read something this week, but I've read everything I own, and I hadn't planned ahead and gone to the library. So, hopefully next week there will actually be some something or other here.

Listening:
The Refreshments: I just lost probably a zillion points of indie cred, but that's what I've been listening to. It's been in my cd player for probably a month now, and it's mainly what I listen to when I'm in my room (aka playing video games), singing along to every single song like the 90's-loving nerd that I am. It's good southwestern pop from the mid/late-90's, that's really easy-going and simple with a lot of the lyrics being about ladies and beer.
Unfortunately, I don't have any of their music on my computer and there isn't any that's easily and freely available for download, but I will probably update this later this week with a link/song for downloading.
UPDATE: The Refreshments - Sin Nombre
