So, Whatcha Been Up To?

Well, not that much really. Work is flat out, but fun, so I'm happy :)

In the off hours, I've mostly been running my net connection downloading tv shows. Last month (12th December-11th Jan) my 40 gig download limit was used up 5 days before the end, so I got throttled to slower than modem speeds for 5 days :)

This month (12 Jan - 11th Feb) I increased my quote to 80 gig, and ...that's already been used up (4 or 5 days ago) and so I've been throttled back until the 12th.

What did I get for my efforts? Let's see...

  • All 8 seasons of That 70s Show.
  • The last 2 seasons of the West Wing
  • The last season of Doctor Who
  • The first season of Torchwood

Everything that's aired so far in the US of the current seasons of:

  • Stargate SG-1
  • Stargate Atlantis
  • Supernatural
  • Heroes
  • Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip
  • 24
  • How I Met Your Mother

I also grabbed the first episode of the 'Sarah Jane Adventures', which is a new Doctor Who spinoff, but after watching it I decided not to download anymore :)

Oh, and I copied some stuff off my sis:

  • All that's aired so far of My Name is Earl
  • The first season of Top Gear
  • Saw III
  • Pulse
  • V for Vendetta
  • The DaVinci Code

So what have I actually been doing with my time? Watching them all! All I've got left to watch is the last three movies in that last list.

Tonight I'm not watching anything yet. Mitch is killing some time at my place so we're sharing a throttled net connection (not very well :) and just shooting the shit, as you do :) Oh, and I think I may have come close to making him lose his dinner - I showed him the opening scene for Saw III - at least, until the third or fourth hit to the foot, and then he made me stop *grin*  Sorry man!
