Omg! I have been playing this stupid Domino game on my phone for over a decade trying to get a perfect score -which is zero. Today I finally did it!! I can’t describe the stranglehold this game has had over me 😬

On September 5, I had an accident at work and broke both of my elbows. Playing ANY games in September feels like a major win!

Just finished Soulswift by Megan Bannen. This is one of those I’ll always remember my first read—like A Wrinkle in Time or Voyage of the Dawn Treader or The Fionavar Tapestry. It got the first 5 🌟 I’ve given in September and is on track to be my favorite book of the year 💗

I really love stumbling across a set of Jokers that make this kind of Balatro score possible. Believe it or not, this was a single, very lucky hand!
