Fingers crossed for this one! 'The Dreamers' is from King's book, You Like It Darker. So good!

Ah, @littlehikerbird.bsky.social knows…

Snow is in the forecast for this week. That is all, that is the post.

Couldn't remember where I left off in watching Stranger Things, but Netflix did and now I'm up to the fourth season. Almost ready for the fifth.

I was feeling a little into the spirit of the holidays and now, I'm covered in glitter. #FFS

One of my favorite moments on my walk was noticing that the bicycle on the left, now has a friend on the right. The one on the left has been there for who knows how long. 🤓

Just watched season one of NOS4A2 on Netflix, a great adaptation from the book of the same name by Joe Hill. I will pickup where I left off tomorrow. 🎄 #ChristmasLand

I got a new laptop and I'm still adjusting to the fact that I can wander around my apartment with it and not have it plugged in while holding it in a certain way, so the sound doesn't go out. My old laptop was roughly 10 years old; I babied the shit out of that thing... I liked my old laptop. 😎

I just got my copy from the library and I can't wait to dive in! #SlayersofOld #BTVS #NewRelease #Books

People are hurting right now, and some of them have pets. Please take a look at Archer Zee's Pet Pantry Donations 2025 and, if you can, make a donation to help out a lot of people and their animals. Thanks. www.amazon.com/registries/g...

Repost this please.

Went for a walk which turned into a five hour (give or take an hour) hike. Luckily, I had sturdy shoes and the weather wasn't too bad.

Challenge Accepted! 😉 #ConstantReader

And for American e-book readers, THE BOOK OF LOST THINGS and THE LAND OF LOST THINGS remain on sale for $1.99 apiece on all platforms: www.simonandschuster.biz/books/The-Bo... www.simonandschuster.biz/books/The-La...

These are the first wave of library requests, should last me a couple of weeks. I have maybe another small stack in my hold queue waiting to be fulfilled. #SupportLibraries

It’s getting spooky around here… @lorasenf.bsky.social

Went old school and requested 22 books for pick-up at my local library! Is it too soon to ask if they're ready yet? 🤔😉

*Deep Breath* Here we go. 🤘 #Ozzy

Pokemon Go upgrade went into affect, I'm now at level 67 up from 43. Not sure what if anything that means, but there you go. I'm still having login issues on my new phone, so I can't do any of the challenges at the moment which is annoying. I've done all the troubleshooting suggestions and nada. 😐

I will not get sick, I will not get sick. I WILL NOT GET SICK! I have tickets to see the band Garbage this Saturday and I will not get sick. 😨🤨🤘

Overheard at the library this afternoon... "Respect the library. If you're going to bully someone, bully me, respect the library. I won't put up with your shit." I'm paraphrasing and I'm not sure what exactly was happening, but I applaud his statement.

One of my favorite places to visit in the fall. 🍁 #ManitoPark #Spokane

It's time to stock up on winter supplies... soup, hot cocoa, stuff for Crock-Pot recipes, soup, tea, soup... did I say soup? 🍲

There's a lot of rumors going around and not that she needed to do this, but I'm glad she did. 💖 #DollyParton

Popped in to my local bookstore and raided the galley cubby. Well. I say raided, but I took two titles, both out 2026. ~ Brawler by Lauren Groff ~ The Primrose Murder Society by Stacy Hackney I'm finishing up, Lucky Day by Chuck Tingle. What are you reading?

@larrycebula.bsky.social you've probably seen this, but just in case. 🤓#publichistory

I've been having issues with the Pokemon Go app for a few weeks now. I had to get a new phone and what should have been an easy peasy issue, has resulted in several emails/videos, along with several trouble shooting attempts. I am officially at the beginning phase of frustration for this problem. 🫤

Reading Rainbow… is back! 🥹 This LeVar Burton/Reading Rainbow raised human is feeling all of the library joy. We hope your kids believe they belong in books, just like you ✨ Take a look, it’s in a book 📚🌈🦋🌌 youtu.be/gHAIjSkmnYI?...

Dr. Goodall made amazing impressions upon our world. May she rest in peace.

Slowly finding a home for a few collections, just traded in board games and puzzles for store credit. Now, I need to deal with the comic books I haven't looked at in 15 years and Bon Jovi memorabilia I have had stored for decades. None of it is doing me any good stashed in a trunk. 📦 #adultingisfun

I don't know what is going on, maybe people are upset about not being raptured, or maybe someone pooped in their pool, but whatever is happening is creating a hostile vibe in the air that is seriously harshing my mellow.

Public threats by the Government to punish free speech is all the more dangerous in a moment when the administration is using speech as a pretext to crackdown on political dissent. The only remedy is for people to stand up to the censors. This isn’t a partisan issue; it’s an American issue.

So, The Perimenopause is kicking my butt today. I set out to run errands, instead I ended up on my normal three hour walking route. Stopped at the store, accidentally dropped a large container of yogurt, and because the person working in the aisle was so nice about it, I nearly started to cry. 🥹

I'm glad Jimmy Kimmel is back.

Going to send my Disney-Hulu $$ to NPR/PBS.

It should be illegal to be this tired.

I really would like to play this, but I'm not buying a Switch 2. I'm hoping Nintendo takes pity on us at some point and releases it for the Switch. #HyruleWarriors #AgeofImprisonment

We Ride at Dawn!

Hope some good shit happens to you tomorrow.

Thank you to the people at my public library for putting this on the hold shelf for me, I'm loving it... so many new authors to check out! I'm only a few chapters in and I have so many thoughts, questions, etc. 🤓 #EndoftheWorldasweKnowIt

Dipping my toes back in the job pool, not really ready to dive in, but let's see what happens.

Okay, no one bother me for the next 24... 48... maybe 72 hours. I'm so excited! #KingSorrow #Galley

The potential we could have had, rather than the current shit show... FFS. 😔 Pre-ordering Kamala Harris's book now. #107Days #Colbert youtu.be/BD8Nf09z_38?...

Does anyone else have heat issues associated with perimenopause... or am I finally mutating from the COVID vaccine from three years ago and turning into a vampire? The sun... is HOT, it sorta kinda BURNS just a little! 🥵🦇🥵

Well, I think it's time to get new walking shoes. I've just done a five mile hike and boy, oh boy, are my dogs barking. I was hoping to get a little more mileage out of this pair, but it's time to let them go. #naturevibes
