At the end of what I am told is the longest month on record since we started tracking such things in the mid-fourteenth century, here’s where we are: Yep. That about sums it up. Best book I read this month was Think Twice by the incomparable Harlan Coben. But it’s the—I don’t know, twelfth?—book in
Thursdays are my laziest of lazy days. Mondays I don’t have much during the day, but I have games on Zoom on Monday nights. Tuesday, I sometime have D&D and usually Spanish homework. Wednesday I have Spanish class and sometimes therapy. Friday, I have group therapy. Weekends usually involve *something*. This weekend, for example, we
Students (looks like grade school age) are writing goodbye letters to their friends in case ICE picks them up. I am genuinely not sure how the MAGA contingent lives with themselves. OTOH, teachers are making themselves a RIGHT pain in the ass, so there’s that. I continue to nest. Kevin bought me a side table
Which really seems…like someone is bending time and space. What would you do if you won the lottery? I used to take my lottery planning very seriously. There were spreadsheets. The plan at one point was that I would build a huge house, maybe 15 or 20 bedrooms and I would make space for all
Cause January is the longest month. I swear, I feel like it’s January 87th. Maybe October will be shorter. Blogtober has a nice ring to it. What books do you want to read? I suppose it’s cheating to say “All of them. All the books.” And it would be not only cheating, but it would
I kept seeing this book on every MM Romance top ten for 2024, and yet I was still a little reluctant to read it. For the life of me, I do not know why because it was just gorgeous. What do you enjoy doing most in your leisure time? I read. Obviously. What’s interesting is
So today, we confirmed (by a Vance tiebreak) a FOX news host as Secretary of Defense. It’s the latest piece of evidence that I am trapped in some sort of absurdist black comedy. I think I’m handling it pretty well. I read a whole book, threatened to not leave my living room for the next
Name an attraction or town close to home that you still haven’t got around to visiting. I’ve lived in DC for 35 of the last 37 years, and never managed to visit the Mormon temple, which is just up the beltway. Part of that is that it’s not always open to the public, and figuring
Another long day, which started at 5:30 when the power went out. See, a few months back, we lost an entire freezer full of food when we didn’t realize that we had an outlet go bad. So, to make sure that didn’t ever happen again, Kevin put an alarm on that plug, so that we
Long day today, so all I have energy for is this. I really want to talk tattoos, but that may wait till Friday. Anyway— If you could make your pet understand one thing, what would it be? If I could have just one superpower, I think it might be the ability to talk to animals.
