I feel like I've learned a lot doing this list in 2017. One is that I have time to read and watch TV and movies and all that, but I waste it instead. The other is that I've gotten really bad about writing things down in a timely manner - like, I did most of December by going back through my journal to see when I mentioned watching or reading things - so I have no doubt I've missed some stuff. So I need to be better about writing things down, if not every day, then every other day or every few days. That, and I need to use my time more productively. And yes, watching TV is more productive than laying around playing Gardenscapes or endlessly scrolling through random tumblrs.
