Currently (in fifteen minutes)

I have a dearth of time but I want to, so very much wish to post. So here it goes – how fast can I do it? And will it suck? Signs point to possibly, but hey, what can you do? We all do our best.

Currently, a la Katy Upperman.

Loving


This is the best thing on the internet right now.

Reading



I finished rereading A Court of Thorns and Roses in anticipation of A Court of Mist and Fury, which I’m still waiting on from Overdrive (I’m next! I’m next!) but I’m having trouble finding a book that really speaks to me. I had really good May books. I need good recommendations for June books. I was underwhelmed by Karin Slaughter’s Pretty Girls despite (because of?) they hype, and I haven’t been able to get into Michael Scott’s The Alchemyst. I'll post my read in May books ... soon? I need recommendations for now though.

Watching

Baseball. I loved the first season of Glee but I haven’t cared enough to watch any more. You know what I want to be able to watch? CSI. Why is it Miami and NY are available but good old Vegas is nowhere?

Listening To



Classic Vinyl on Sirius.


Oh! Also, I listened to Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe and LMM narrates it and WHERE IS MY HEART-EYED EMOJI? I had thoughts and feelings and opinions about the ending, but I don’t want to ruin it so I’ll keep my opinions to myself. The  voice of the book as voiced by Lin though, broad smile. Broad Smile.

Thinking About

Everything I’m not doing while I type.

Anticipating

WILLIAMSBURG. We leave in 19 days. Man, I need an extended vacation. I’m so scared of what I come back to though.

Wishing

Magically I was on top of everything


Making Me Happy
