Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Happy birthday to our own Hecubot!

I had the third - and, seemingly, final - book in K.J. Charles Will Darling series, so I stayed up finishing it. Then, OF COURSE, I had to go back and re-read the previous two, so ... there isn't enough coffee.

And then there's this. I keep telling people life is stranger than anything I could make up.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I spent all yesterday reading The Witness for the Dead which is not divided into chapters so it's really hard to just stop reading. But I got to sleep at my usual time, just didn't get anything done during the day. Which is not great, but was a mostly conscious choice.

Our wings are not tired.

Yes, I really like when the book is broken into nice small chapters so that the I'll just finish this chapter objective works. My general rule is when my Nook drops from my hands 3 times I give up and go to sleep.

I really like the Sleep Timer set to End of Chapter for audiobooks at bedtime. Although I'm listening to BBC Radio Plays right now and all the sound effects and music are less sleep promoting.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston. I did that thing where I was all, "Oh, I only have X more pages left so I should just keep going."

I had it on audio and just kept making up excuses to drive places so I could keep listening.

K.J. Charles Will Darling series, so I stayed up finishing it.

Same!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

What I really want is a massage. Is it ok to get a massage now? I don't want to put anyone at risk...

I hope so—I've been twice since my vaccinations . . . matured? finalized? Whatever word we're using to indicate we're past the two weeks point.

I still have to make an appointment for a dental checkup, but otherwise I'm caught up on medical stuff. I had my last blood draw and second shingles vaccine this morning.

Yep. I'm partly into my reread of book 2 in that series. I have several new books that I could be reading. But, like mac and cheese two meals in a row, repetition does not dull my pleasure in these books.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Since you are considered fully immunized.

I would also accept "super-powered" as a descriptor.

Coding and Sleeping

I really like the Sleep Timer set to End of Chapter for audiobooks at bedtime.

Oh yeah, I use the Sleep Timer all the time. Usually for things I'm re-reading (or re-listening) so I'm more inclined to doze off.

Sounds like I'm going to get an offer.

That's awesome, Gud!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday David!

Yay, Gud!
