#AMonthofFaves 2019: On The Screen or In Your Ear

Join Girlxoxo and I today as we talk about some things we’ve watched or listened to this year!

 

Today’s prompt:

WED. | Dec 11 – #AMonthofFaves On the Screen or in Your Ear – What did you watch this year that you absolutely loved and did you see any movies inspired by books you’ve read – what did you think. Or, what are some of your favorite podcasts, audiobooks or songs / albums that you listened to and have on repeat.

I spent most of 2019 NOT going to the movies- and then in November, I saw 3: Charlie’s Angels, Frozen 2 and Knives Out. I liked all 3 of them for various reasons- but Knives Out really combined some humor with mystery- which I loved.

Podcasts: I’m in need of a new podcast. I’m super picky about them and have not found any that I was loving since I listened to Up and Vanished.

Music: I’m SO not cool with music. You won’t find my Iphone filled with cool bands (but I just like what I like!)

Some songs that are on one of most listened to playlists:

Niall Horan- Slow Hands

Taylor Swift- You Need To Calm Down

Niall Horan- Nice To Meet Ya

Eric Clapton- I’ve Got A Rock “N” Roll Heart

Carrie Underwood- Dirty Laundry

Lady Antebellum- You Look Good

Taylor Swift-Blank Space

Kelsea Ballerini – Miss Me More

 

I also re-discovered some old fave songs: Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong by Spin Doctors, Would I Lie To You by Charles and Eddie, King of Wishful Thinking by Go West,  and Someday by Mariah Carey.

 

TV: Well… confession time- I don’t have all those fancy streaming services like so many people do because the internet is just not fast enough to stream without a LOT of buffering. So like SO many of the shows people get excited about- nope, don’t watch them. And there is no Netflix and chill happening at my house. 😦

I did watch Big Little Lies season 2 on HBO and I liked it- but I also was kind of underwhelmed by it.

I watch a LOT of Law and Order and I am tickled pink that Ovation TV is running re-runs of The Practice ( a courtroom drama that is so. darn.good. )

 

*What were you listening/watching in 2019? And please don’t make fun of my musical choices 😉 *

    Oh my goodness. I didn’t ever think I would find someone like me! HA! We also don’t have a TV or Netflix. If you check out my post you’ll see that I’m back on Grey’s Anatomy 🙂 And yes, I love some of that 80s music as evidenced by my daughter’s tastes 🙂

    We saw NO movies this year but we’re going on a Disney Cruise in January so we’re going to see Frozen 2 and the new Star Wars on the ship. Whooo hoo!!!

    • The internet at my house is just sh*tty slow. My brother bought a roku some time ago and it just buffered like crazy- so, we do DirectTV at the house. And SO funny- I was under the weather back in early October and found Grey’s on DirectTV (the early episodes) and watched them!

      Jealous about your Disney cruise- sounds AMAZING!

  2. I just recently started listening to a bunch of 90s pop music again and I had kind of forgotten how much I love it–like, The Black Crowes, Blues Traveler, Oasis, Duncan Sheik, and other stuff like that. And I still know all the words! Hahaha!
