It still doesn’t feel real. After over a decade of following my husband from base to base. After so many addresses and missed family events and making a new village everywhere we were sent.
Uncle Sam has no say in our lives. We bought our forever home. And I know have a library. Happy tears all over
Back in 2017 I bought a piece of art for a friend from @alexsteacy.bsky.social and made an offer on a sketch Alex had because I loved it. Almost a decade and a house purchase later, I framed it to put in my library. It still makes me so happy 💕

Really enjoying PageBound because I can write down all my unhinged thoughts as I’m reading and post them to the forum.
Down side is that means my inside thoughts now exist on the outside and I don’t know if any of us really want that.
Every time I start to play Skyrim, I end up abandoning every quest to just make potions and armor until a shiny new game grabs my interest. I have made peace with the knowledge I will never come close to finishing it 🤣
Sir, I had just taken a sip of coffee. It lives in my sinuses now 🤣
For me it’s Ava Reid. On paper, she should absolutely be my jam. Immaculate vibes. I have yet to finish a single book of hers that I’ve started and now I just say no. Also I DNF multiple books every month. Life is too short to read books you aren’t enjoying 🤷🏻♀️
Pagebound is also a fun reading app. They have quests and forum to scream at the universe while you are reading
Several of my coworkers are named Dick. Not legally, but through their actions
It’s Rex Manning day so I’m watching Empire Records with some friends who haven’t seen it yet
Just finished I was a teenage slasher and I have never tolerated a man making me cry as much as @sgj.bsky.social has the past 4 books. Not only that, but I pay money for it 🤦🏻♀️.
As someone who still loves (and talks shit too) their highschool friends 20 years later, 5/5 stars.
One of my top 3 reads ever. The way I through the book across the room when *plot point* my husband has yet to let me live it down

Time to make this just as unhinged as the rest of my books in this series. Also there will be no spoilers posted here. I’m not a monster. #onyxstorm #booksky
Me preparing to be just as unhinged tomorrow as I have been with the last two books. I have theories and I need to know if I’m right #booksky #onyxstorm
Ours is robot pancake. I put googly eyes on it. It still cracks me up

Favorite Christmas cookie?
I’m solidly team ridiculous
Had the vaccine been available earlier, she would have danced with me at my wedding. She would have given one hell is a toast. She would have been alive to see it all. Vaccines save lives and quality of life
My great aunt was one of the last kids in CT to contract polio before the vaccine was available. She spent her life in a wheelchair and later a ventilator because of the disease. In the late 90’s she successfully petitioned the court to peacefully end her life and her pain….
The Shuddering by Ania Ahlborn.
I love an isolated setting. I love a creature feature. I love creating characters that I can root for or against their death. This book wasn’t perfect, but it def made me hustle to my car in the dark cold mornings like I was being chased.

Shit like this is why you are equally amazing and terrifying 💕
Lights Out by Navessa Allen.
honestly did not think this was going to be my jam. At all. Once you get past the unnerving breach of boundaries and sanity, this was kind of a super spicy rom com? Not me giving this a solid 4/5. Just check trigger warnings not every book is for every reader

A haunting on the hill by Elizabeth Hand.
A great haunted house story, but the characters will have you solidly rooting for the house.
Also somehow this is book 99 for me for the year? What?!

The Courting of Bristol Keats by Mary E. Pearson
I was really enjoying this book and then it just ended? You know how in LOTR return of the king where it was natural end point after natural end point but the movie kept going? This book has the opposite problem. It just ends. Pretty abruptly.
Lone Women by Victor LaValle
I really enjoyed this book. A stubborn protagonist, an isolated setting, and the weight of familial responsibilities? Yes please. From knowing you’re being hunted to the haints who lean towards apathy?
This was a great good for her time
