@garrae-writes.bsky.social I saw this photo on Reddit and it made me think of your Castle Cats stories.

Wow. Both playoff games today ended up being really good games. #NFLPlayoffs

No matter how much you enjoy being on vacation, it’s always good to be home.

My family has a tradition that we go to a bookstore on January 1st and buy a book to start off the new year. This year couldn’t settle for just one book, so I bought 4: Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree, We Solve Murders by Richard Osman, and Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo.

Saw the new Paul Rudd/Jack Black movie ANACONDA today—alone. I thought my 14 year old nephew might’ve been interested but apparently he just wants to spend the whole day hold up in his room napping or playing Fortnite. Seeing a movie at the theater with his uncle isn’t interesting to him anymore. 🥲

Once when we were getting on the Jurassic Park ride at Universal Studios we noticed Martin Short & friends boarding in the front row. After the ride I actually stood next to him when everyone goes to look at the photo from the waterfall splash. I walked away without saying a word to him.

New book on its way! For the last few years I’ve been working on ‘The First Hundred Hours, a story of Alien Invasion.’ Updates coming soon!

I’ll get to see my brother, my nieces, and nephew (whose birthday is today!) by tomorrow afternoon! So excited. We’ll be spending the week and celebrating the new year together.

New look at Nicolas Cage as John Madden in David O’Russell’s ‘MADDEN’ movie.

Our family finished off the night by watching The Muppets Christmas Carol and the classic How the Grinch Stole Christmas cartoon.

Off to see #AvatarFireAndAsh with the family on our local cinema’s historic 1930s big screen theatre.

Happy Winter Solstice! ❄️

Boimler and Mariner on my Christmas tree. 🎄🖖🚀 #StarTrek #LowerDecks #StarTrekLowerDecks

I’ve finished all my gift wrapping. Storing them for in my Booknook until Christmas Eve.

Disappointed I can’t find a Star Trek Lower Decks wall calendar for 2026 to replace my Lower Decks 2025 calendar for when next year rolls around.

My current view. #TillySpam #pet #cat #catsofbluesky

When did we get a new ornament? #JackSpam #pet #cat #christmastree #christmas #catsofbluesky

My Nutcracker collection is now on display. #ChristmasDecorations #Nutcracker #Christmas

The family and I saw #WickedForGood at our local movie theatre today.

I put up the tree and strung the lights. Jack the Cat “supervised” my work and gave his feline approval of my efforts. #JackSpam #pet #cat #caturday #Christmas #ChristmasTree

My mini-4 foot Christmas tree in my book nook all decorated.

Since we do our turkey meal at lunchtime, I’m having a slice of pumpkin pie and a slice of cherry pie for dinner. 🥧

My Thanksgiving meal.

At our local movie theater. 🎭 🧙 #Wicked #WickedForGood

How can I resist that face? #TillySpam #pet #cat #caturday #catsofbluesky

Still disappointed that they opted not to title the film after the actual book it’s based on: DUNE MESSIAH. But I understand it for a cinematic film trilogy having them all be just DUNE works for marketing it the general audience.

‘DUNE: PROPHECY’ Season 2 has begun filming. The season will be 8 episodes long.

‘ALIEN: EARTH’ has been renewed for Season 2.

Always watching. #TillySpam #pet #cat #catsofbluesky

The way this #WorldSeries has been, of course it’s gone to extra innings.

At my current reading pace, I’ll probably finish reading DRACULA tomorrow. #books #reading

It’s October 26 and I just saw a Christmas commercial for Macy’s on TV!

Cake time! I enjoy still getting a homemade birthday cake made by my mom for as long as I can.

Happy Birthday to Nora Roberts (aka JD Robb) creator of #EveDallas, Roarke, and, of course, the noble and brave Galahad the Cat! #InDeath #JDRobb 🍾🎂🥳🎉😺

Last night I actually did some writing for the first time in a long while, about 1200+ words in what will become a oneshot for #CastleHalloweenBash #Castle #fanfic #Caskett

The kitten pictured in the bottom right is my cat Jack from when he was 2 months old right before we adopted him back in 2023. He’s 2 1/2 now and still a handful. #JackSpam #cat #pet #adoptdontshop #catsofbluesky
