My Week
This week has been full of reading, a fair bit of exercise (say what?!) and a little bit of work. I went to see The Martian with friends which I really enjoyed, watched a little bit of Orphan Black, watched the Great British Bake off finale and saw a few more old Doctor Who episodes. I haven’t yet seen the new Doctor Who episode, or any of the Season 5 episodes of Once Upon a Time which have been added to Netflix, so hopefully I’ll get to catch up with those this week. I’ve also signed up to some extra shifts at work next week so things will be pretty busy here, but I’m obviously very excited about the extra money, and potentially looking at going away over Christmas which would be very nice.
Reading updates:
Finished: Station Eleven, One Breath Away, Simon Vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda
Currently Reading: Robopocalypse

You’ve definitely encouraged me to read The Martian, and I’ll be seeing it again for sure – probably when it comes out on DVD! I’m curious about Robopocalypse and I really need to read some Jim Butcher. WAY TO GO with the reading, exercise and Doctor Who watching 😀 I want to get into Orphan Black soon myself but it won’t happen this week for sure with all of my shows having their season premieres XD Hopefully you’ll get to catch up on the new seasons of OUaT (it’s pretty different this year) and DW (♥) Good luck with the extra work shifts and YAY extra $$$
