<ul>
<li>This week I learned that I&rsquo;m <strong>allergic to yellowjacket stings</strong> in the worst way possible (not that there&rsquo;s a good way). I was attacked by a nest of them while mowing the lawn and had to go to the ER.</li>
<li>Contemplating my intense introversion.</li>
<li>I was able to finally get together with a dear friend for a walk through the park — we have been trying to see each other for a while now but schedules and weather kept getting in the way. Talking to her, a kindred spirit, nourishes me.</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="reading">Reading</h1>
<ul>
<li><strong><em>The Basic Eight</em> by Daniel Handler.</strong> Finished in the first hours of this week. I wrote up <a href="/the-basic-eight">a full post</a> with my thoughts.</li>
<li><strong><em>Death Is Not an Option</em> by Suzanne Rivecca.</strong> I&rsquo;m about halfway through this. It&rsquo;s middling; there&rsquo;s a lot of weird sex that I simply do not connect to, and all of the narrators / protagonists feel the same even though this is a collection of unrelated short stories.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://apnews.com/article/harris-walz-apostrophe-possessive-grammar-967c0bbefc09be6c804588daabed7ec9">Theres an apostrophe battle brewing among grammar nerds. Is it Harris or Harriss?</a> by Holly Tamer.</strong> This is the kind of presidential race news coverage I want to see in this world.</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="watching">Watching</h1>
<ul>
<li><strong>Into the Aether&rsquo;s Pokemon Emerald Nuzlocke.</strong> I really like Into the Aether and the TWG network, and Joe is a big fan of watching Pokemon challenges on YouTube. We are not far in, but we are enjoying it so far.</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="playing">Playing</h1>
<ul>
<li><strong><em>Rock Band 4.</em></strong> I have a friend visiting this week — it&rsquo;s a great party game.</li>
<li><strong><em>Carcassone.</em></strong> A board game staple in my house.</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="listening">Listening</h1>
<ul>
<li>Nothing particular beyond some shuffles, but my mom came over with her old Fleetwood Mac records and we realized that my record player has been spinning <em>slightly</em> too fast (~33.7rpm instead of 33.3). I noticed it months ago with Mac Miller&rsquo;s <em>GO:ODAM</em>, but I thought it might just be the press. We fixed it and now I feel I have to re-listen to all my records.</li>
