I’m going to be away on the 15th this month for a weekend at one of my most favourite places in Lesotho – Maliba Lodge – celebrating my birthday with some of my favourite people so I’m writing this a bit early and posting it on my actual birthday. On to the list:

Watching: “How To Get Away with Murder.” I binged on the first five episodes and now I’m stuck waiting week to week to find out what happens. It’s been a long time since I’ve watched a show week to week and the suspense is killing me!

Anticipating: My trip to Hong Kong and Beijing starting a week from tomorrow. This is going to be my first time in Asia and then I will only have the continents of Australia and Antarctica left on my 17 Before 2017 list. I’m excited to see my youngest sister, Lou and her husband Sebastian in Hong Kong; that friends I know from Lesotho are coming from Shanghai to sightsee together in Beijing and to be doing the whole trip together with a new friend.

Listening: To music on Spotify after a discussion with a friend last month. I’m still of the mindset that I want to OWN the music that I pay money for. I recognise, though, that this is largely outdated with the advent of Spotify, Pandora, etc. My friends’ argument was that she would be spending more than $10 a month on music so Spotify actually saves her money. As a result I decided to give it a try for a few months to see if I really do get $10 worth of entertainment from it. I’m still figuring out how to have the best listening experience. It’s hard to compete with my finely honed and well curated collection in iTunes …

Reading: The third book of the “Maze Runner” trilogy. I’m a sucker for post-apocolyptic young adults fiction, and these books have held up after getting excited about them from watching the movie. I also have quite a few books waiting to be read on my Kindle including the final book of the “Grave Mercy” series, the latest Louise Penny novel featuring Inspector Gamache and a few books I found from the Goodreads end of year voting.

Eating: Mexican quinoa – a recipe I found on Pinterest and actually followed through to make. It’s delicious. I want to eat it for every meal.

Working On: The usual work stuff, but with the end of the year quickly approaching it seems deadlines keep popping up. Lots to get done between now and mid-December when things die down significantly.

Loving: (I’ve decided to change “Wanting” to “Loving” since I want for so little.) Summer in Lesotho. It’s been raining a bunch here, but when it’s not raining the landscape is turning technicolor green. All the more reason to be looking forward to Maliba this weekend. This is my favourite time of year.

Playing: A rousing round of Settlers of Catan with colleagues last week. When I play Settlers it reminds me that I don’t play often enough, even if I never win. What a great game. I’m also packing Bohnanza and Cranium for this weekend.

    Heather – I was just re-reading my old PC Lesotho blog and came upon your comment on one of my blog posts. I’m happy to see you’re still in Lesotho. I will be there in February, my first time back since my Peace Corps service. It would be great to meet up! I’ll be in touch when I’m in Lesotho.
