Thing I have done since December: watch the first two seasons of NBC's Hannibal.

Thing I did over the last couple days: read Thomas Harris's The Silence of the Lambs.

Thing I am currently doing: reading Thomas Harris's Red Dragon.

Thing I will do tomorrow: watch The Silence of the Lambs.

Things currently in my Netflix queue: Manhunter, Red Dragon, and Hannibal.

Thing I will probably check out of the library in a couple days: Thomas Harris's Hannibal.

(I am undecided on whether to bother with Hannibal Rising, which I have heard is fairly dire both as a book and a movie. And yet, completism...)

Why yes, as a matter of fact, I can tell when I'm in the grip of a temporary obsession. Whyever do you ask??? *headdesk*

My sympathies. For the last week I've been compulsively following a very ugly trial in Tennessee that has absolutely no connection to my life, but that I somehow got interested in. There's going to be at least another week of testimony. Why do brains do this???? If I'm going to obsess about something, why couldn't it be something pleasant? Gah!

That does sound obsessive. I have to say that Silence of the Lambs is one movie I thought was well done but I never want to see it again. There are a few others in the category but none about fictional serial killers.

...okay, I'm going to be backing away very quickly now....
