Thanks to the suggestion of Kim and a drought of other television to download I’ve been watching The Wire and what a pleasant surprise. The first thing that occured to me was “How the hell did I miss this?” because the quality is so high. I’ve finished watching Season 3 and am really curious where they’re going to take it in the future because it feels like the story has run its course, but so far I’ve loved every moment of it.

I was also handed a copy of Wicked, a book detailing The Wizard of Oz story from the Wicked Witch of the West’s perspective, which basically calls heresay on the entirety of Dorothy’s story. I loved it so much that I bought the second book, Son of a Witch, and have already devoured that one only to discover that there is yet another book in the series: A Lion Amongst Men.

I love discovering things like these once they’re complete and ready to be consumed without any need to wait for episodes/books. I find it makes the entire experience much more enjoyable because it’s all fresh in my mind without the decaying force of time to do its work.
