new year's eve
Dec. 31st, 2021 07:06 pmI hope the fires in Boulder County were snuffed out by our first real snow of the year. I wish Nixie would stay an extra day or two, until the roads are clear, but she is determined to go back to New Mexico tomorrow.
We made lentil soup, with the last of the kale from my garden. We played Codenames, which is an excellent game. It's really hard not to give extra information; I said "Drink 3", intending to point to "water", "mouth", and "mint". Neal chose "water", "mouth", and "trunk", and I looked surprised and glanced at the key to confirm that "trunk" was one of my agents, so Neal knew that he should make a fourth choice.
I succeeded at my 120-day pledge for Get Your Words Out, so I'm going to pledge to write 180 days in 2022. I didn't succeed at my 150-book pledge for goodreads, or my 36-book pledge for Climbing Mt TBR, so I think I will pledge at the same levels for 2022.
Last time I went to the library, my library twin had Kathy Acker's Empire of the Senseless, Lauren Groff's Matrix, Michelle Zauner's Crying in H Mart, Johannes Anyuru's They Will Drown in Their Mother's Tears, and Lincoln Michel's The Body Scout on hold.
