Hmm. Where did I put my coffee? I would like to say that I’m getting to watch all the television shows I ever wanted here in isolation, but I’m not. I’m not hardly watching anything, honestly. (I hit the libraries
Used Book Store Finds: A Different Light by Elizabeth A. Lynn
Hey-o, squiders! I thought this was one of my library book sale books, but it had a bookmark in it, so it turns out that it was one of the books my spouse bought me on my birthday when he
