Rebecca woke up early just to compile all her lists for 2016.
I must be getting old, because I opened my last Hanukkah gift from Mom last night (it was the last night of Hanukkah) and I was actually darn happy to have a new set of bedsheets! They're aquamarine and very soft. I made my bed with them and cleaned my room last night, and that was my New Year's Eve. Sara and I were watching Speed at midnight, like we did last year, but neither of us could stay awake through the end. I guess we're both getting old.
Anyway, here are some lists for 2016: most played songs of 2016 and movies I watched. What a year it was. I didn't listen to a lot of new music this year, because of the radio in Muse Watson being broken for so long. Anything released in 2015-16 qualifies as new.
