Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

Because books.

Am at a Dead tribute band show, three beers in. It's all people over 40! So happy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Maybe--you have five games, right? Allow 1 google search.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Aw, fun!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I did it without Googling, just to see what I could make of it. Very much not impressed with myself. I guess it is a matter of how you approach the game. Do you see it as how much you know, or do you see it as how much you can dig out?

In other news, FUCK. We have fleas. How do we have fleas? Our cats are both strictly indoor-only. Guess I know what we're doing this weekend. Except that I also have a big freelance project to finish this weekend, that is already going to take up most of my time. Argh.

They jump on you outside and ride your legs into the house. You will need to treat not just your cats and house but your yard as well. You have my sympathies.

Earlier tonight, Charlie stepped on the blueray remote, and then barked at it when it opened.

It was adorable, and I hope I don't use it for entertainment.

Without Google, I am around 10-11,000.

I think it's a sign of how much I've been playing that I saw a gas station sign and thought, "Oh, it's Mexico." because I'm starting to recognize national brands.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I guess it is a matter of how you approach the game.

I'm taking it as a learning exercise more than a competitive thing and I'm learning things as I google. Like what the flag of Romania looks like.

George Takei is totally awesome.

IO(and far more depressing)N, hospice may have gotten a jump on us. My sister is convinced it's a matter of days. Me, I don't even know.

But Mom's still in there: she got all snarky with us when we were trying to get her to take her medication. "Stop ganging up on me!"

And when I picked up one of her thrillers (which she hasn't been able to read in months), she grabbed it away and clung to it like a teddy bear.

Oy.

I'm trying to work out the best strategies.

Left or right-hand drive helps me a lot, especially for distinguising Australia/NZ/South Africa from the US and Canada. This map:

is my friend.

If we're playing challenges - this was my best-ever score so far:

...and this was the closest I ever got to a single target (the first pick):
