Year by Year Overview

A year by year look at tracked activities.

I started tracking books by date in 2014. I had a list of books read in 2013, but I don't know the exact date I finished them. Everything before 2013 is a rough estimate based on when books came out (for books with a post-2000 publish date), what I was doing at those times in my life, etc. All that to say anything pre-2013 is guesswork and not a complete list (seriously, I'm missing 40 volumes of Garfield books from the list).

I originally started this whole list by tracking video games in 2012. Prior to that year, I couldn't say what games I played and when. Like books, I could retroactively add games based on release date. It would be accurate for some, but wouldn't take into consideration replays or games I didn't play until long after release. For this category, I choose to stick with the year I started tracking.

I started tracking movies in 2020. In the first 4 days of the year, I watched a movie each day. At that point, I thought it would be a fun experiment/goal to watch a movie a day for the entire year. I missed a couple days, but still watched 366 movies (leap year) by the end of the year.
