Hey, everyone! How the heck is it Wednesday? I just got back from vacation and of course, I’m swamped in work and other obligations. It sucks. Definitely not the “ease back into real life” that I wanted. Over the weekend, I attended a big Disney pin trading evening (my first one!). I had a lot of fun, but I think the highlight was attending Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. It was really exciting to … Continue reading Links: Murderbot, Fat Bears, & More →
Hi, everyone! How’s it going? My partner and I recently celebrated our anniversary in two parts. Part one: finding a cool local cocktail bar that serves gourmet hot dogs and grilled cheese. Part two: eating a charcuterie spread in bed while we watched Dropout programming. Hell yeah! I also left my phone at home and was left alone with my thoughts on my commute. However, it was the perfect excuse to open my kindle (and … Continue reading Links: Twilight, Crafting, & More →
Welcome back to Wednesday Links! For those in the States, have a safe and relaxing holiday weekend! I will personally be doing nothing, which is just how I like it. Final Fantasy XIV just dropped a new expansion and Power Wash Simulator has a new DLC, so I’ll be going full goblin mode to game. And while I love a fireworks show, I’ve done the big Boston display a couple times and the thought of dealing … Continue reading Links: More Bingo, Cool Dogs, & More →
I started working at a local nature center about a year ago, and since then I’ve delighted in being more aware of the nature that inhabits my yard, fills apartment window boxes, and struggles through sidewalk cracks. Thrive Where You’re Planted: A Guided Journal to Help You Connect with the Natural Wonders in Your Neighborhood is a lovely exercise book for those of us who want to become more aware of the natural world around whether … Continue reading Thrive Where You’re Planted by Andrea Debbink →
It’s Wednesday, y’all! And that means it’s time for Links! Half of these links came from our wonderful Discord community – thank you! “How can I get into the Discord?” you might be wondering. It’s a perk from joining the Patreon! On top of that, you also get bonus podcast episodes, usually with me or including cut material from the Friday episodes. Last week, I celebrated my birthday with my wonderful partner and just felt … Continue reading Links: Becky Chambers, Bird Dads, & More →
It’s Wednesday! And you all get a special morning edition of Links! This past weekend, I spent time in a couple Alpine towns. I really love looking at the mountains. I think it’s because I grew up in Florida and it’s a very flat place. Here’s me being understandably overshadowed by some beautiful, snow-capped mountains. My brother couldn’t even get a good photo on his fancy camera because they were so bright. I’ll most likely … Continue reading Links: Bears, Up!, & More →
It’s the New Year! How are we feeling so far? Hopeful? Full of dread? Both? Both is definitely an option. I have started 2022 with getting my septum pierced. I absolutely love it and I’m glad I finally did it. Next up this week is a fresh haircut and getting my eyebrows waxed. I don’t know what it is, but nothing makes me feel like a whole new person than an eyebrow wax. You also … Continue reading Links: Grammar, Birds, & More →
It’s Wednesday afternoon (at least where I am) and you know what that means! It’s time to take a little break with some things from around the internet. I’m currently in a summer slog, where all I want to do is nap with my AC unit on. Anyone else? Sadly, my dance calendar is a little full and I actually have to be social. Nothing feels quite as good as bailing on plans. … Author … Continue reading Links: Real Life Romances, Special Editions, & More →
It’s May! Welcome! Things are puttering along here, though I’ll be flying to Florida over the weekend to visit my parents. It’s been over a year since I last saw them after having to head down there last June for some not great reasons. However, I have my masks and I’m fully vaxxed. I’m interested in seeing how flight travel may or may not have changed since then. Let’s see if I remember how to … Continue reading Links: Marvel Birds, Josh, & More →
