I tabletop game with my IRL friends, someone always seems to have something new to try but I'm usually more partial to the old standbys.

I like to tent camp bordering on glamping.

Legos. I always loved them and when I had a kid it was an excuse to start buying sets again. Who thought it was a good idea for Santa to bring a preschooler Ewok Village? This crazy bitch right here. Who os losing their mind that there's a 2018 Hogwarts Castle? [Hint ...it isn't my 2nd grader]

Music. I need to hear all the new music. Like I review the weekly releases on a few different media platforms [YouTube channels/Spotify/bandcamp] and listen to an listener supported indie alternative station and maaaybe a sustaining member. I have both a cumulative all time and a 2018 new songs playlist on Spodify and an offline list to add songs later that aren't on spotify.

@Starcrossed Cool! You're a tabletop roleplayer? What are your games? And glamping is fabulous.

We'll also have to set up a music recommendations exchange or something lol

My all time favorite is Killer Bunnies.

We play Carcassonne, Settlers of Catan and several varieties of Munchkin.

Last summer I picked up Bears vs Babies, Pretending to Grown Up and Exploding Kittens.

My good friends still play hours and hours of Magic but I never got into that or D&D.

Most recently we've been playing this. It took like 7 attempts playing before we beat it, but I wasn't playing that night when they did so I'm kinda bummed.

@Starcrossed I've played like half of those board games, Killer Bunnies looks fabulous. I think my favorite board game so far is Time STories, which is like this narrative-heavy memory/puzzle game. Huge fan.

And I am on spotify!
