January and February 2011 in Review

MUSIC/MOVIES
-  2011 is looking to be one of the best years in music releases, at least with the music that I like and listen to. The first release that has my attention is The King is Dead by The Decemberists which I give right now a 8/10 rating. The big release in February is the second album by Adele titled 21 and for the moment I give it a 8.9/10.
- I actually did not see any January or February releases in theaters, instead I have been catching up with 2010 movies (and many others) thanks to my recent Subscription to Netflix and going to the dollar theater.
- So thanks to Netflix I have now seen the first season of True Blood, the FX show Louie, and the first season of the Skins (The British Version).
- I finally finished my 17th J-Ray comedy album titled Royal Flush after 6 months of work on it.
- I have become a fan and loyal listener of many different podcasts to guide me along my nights at work. I currently listen to Geek Show Podcast, Big Movie Mouth-Off, The Dork Forest, Doug Loves Movies, and the Harland Highway.

PERSONAL LIFE
- On my 25th birthday I went to see the movie True Grit and then got some food at Wing Nutz keeping up my b-day tradition of trying some place new.
- My favorite thing to note is that I hung out with my girlfriend named Katie (from Riverton, UT) and members of her family a couple times in January. I had really good times going to Laughing Stock (Improv Comedy show) in Salt Lake City, a couple The Big Bang Theory marathons at her house, and finally seeing Tron Legacy on New Years Day. In February we went out to celebrate my birthday at Mimi's Cafe and a couple weeks later we went on a double date over to Boondocks and then ate at Joy Luck restaurant in Sandy.

FOOD
- New places I've tried are T's Diner and Mountain West Burrito. Out of the two I definitely suggest the latter.

Besides that, just doing my normal mug runs, walks, sports chats, online videos, and all the other fun stuff that has helped get me through the winter.
