FAVORITES (doesn’t mean they’re the best) 1. The Revenant – Seriously, how is this not the best movie of the year? Have you seen it? Holy cow. I felt like I needed to sit in a warm bath for 3 days after watching it. It’s amazing. Also just realized that my favorite movie last year…

Wireless Audio!
I hate wires. I will be SO happy when we are free of them completely. And while I try to be great at cable management, inevitably it always turns into a birds nest behind my computer, entertainment center, and router. I’ve got a wireless transmitter for my projector so that I don’t have to have…
