Loved The Mists of Avalon. I ended up reading MZB’s entire catalog.

I’d still like to start over or maybe read it instead of listen to it, but by the end I knew who everyone was and everything that happened and why. It felt a bit like 100 Years of Solitude to me, but I’ve never had the patience to see the end of that one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ /fin

This novel was an experience for me. I listened in audio and was about 40% of the way through and had no idea what was going on. I was deciding if I should DNF it or start over when it all came together like a beautiful origami. 2/3

Today is one of those days when people who make at least 4x what I make are IMing me with stupid questions because they can’t make their janky, homemade python scripts work. I’m over it 😑

Watching a YouTube video of a young man trying to describe an overhead projector. He has clearly never been in a school that used one. My age has never hit home so hard. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I started typing β€œI’m not a huge fan of historical fiction,” but then my brain dumped all the historical fiction I have, in fact, loved. I’ll add them to me TBR. Thank you.

I support IT at the construction trailers for the new Micron production fab. Every time I have to go out there, I’m blown away by how huge the buildings are.

Great titles. I read Circe in 2022, and I loved it so much. I still think about it often

I'm asking that we all raise our political expectations. We deserve good things.
