01. Last couple of days of my reading-and-beach intensive. Reviews to come.
02. Saw a seal! Twice! And dolphins! Metres from the shore!
03. Still watching: The L Word (S3) – rare that I get further than S2 of anything but this series has held my interest.
04. Listening: Lucy Dacus’s new single, Ankles, and so excited that she has a new album coming in March.
05. All things All Fours: this Weirdos Book Club podcast episode (although they aren’t as fixated on ‘Driver or Parker?’ as I am); Miranda July on the Fresh Air podcast; this author talk; and Gretchen Rubin replying to my Insta message.
06. On the topic of Gretchen Rubin, I’ve almost put together my 25 in 25 list (I’m not one for new year’s resolutions per se – the 25 in 25 project is far more appealing, and I have a good balance of tasks / things I’ve procrastinated about, and really, really fun things).
07. Put all of my Hottest 100 votes in just a few baskets this year…
I love how ‘anti-beach read’ your choices are! I have the de Kretser coming up for February. And how lovely that Gretchen Rubin engaged with you. She’s taken up one of my book recommendations via Facebook before.
Amazing to see seals and dolphins in the wild! We regularly see dolphins in the Swan River (we can see the river from our apartment).
