In just 10957.266Hrs, which translates to 657435.958 minutes, which in turn is 39446157.5 seconds, which means there are 456.552748 days until #MYNEIGHBORHOOD shows up! I'll make sure to keep you posted. The ROUGH looks FANTASTIC!! Thank you @mukodiri and @penguinrandomhouse

Bigger #upset than #Clemson losing to #McNeese! First read, BIG UPSET!! NO 3PEAT for @bjnovak.bsky.social #TheBookWithNoPictures is dethroned by @helainebeckerart #OdeToUnderwear!! Both books had the #Kindies in stitches but in the end (pun intended) derriere was funnier than monkey robot.
