A bunch of utter nonsense.
Yup, that’s what this post is. A bunch of utter nonsense. I wanted to post in here but I couldn’t figure what I wanted to write and so… you get this bit of rambling. Or, perhaps I could tell you what I’m reading right now? Yes, let’s do that. It feels less boring than going on about my garden plans for this weekend. Haha. I’m in that mode again where I’m picking up many books and reading them simultaneously. It’s been a long time since I’ve been here, and it honestly feels kind of weird! Also nice, in a way.…

In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away—with visions of a small-town transformation for Nora, who she’s convinced needs to become the heroine…

Melancholy and Medicine
Once again I am sick, and once again I have no idea where I got it from. *sobs in small coughs* One of the best parts about being home more often is that I don’t get sick nearly as often as I used to. However the downside is that when I do get sick, it’s pretty brutal. On the bright side, it’s not COVID! So I’ll take it. I’ve spent most of today medicated, and feeling sorry for myself. I’ll be totally honest, I’m a big baby when I’m sick. I remember as a kid I used to LOVE sick…

Heatwave Life
We’re on day five of an insane heatwave here in Southern California, and I am going slowly insane. Yesterday, with humidity, it was 115 degrees. Like… what? WHO? I moved away from the desert on purpose to avoid temperatures like that, and they are so very much made worse by humidity. I’m so thankful we now live in a house with A/C and that we have blackout curtains. We’ve been living in a cave, but at least it’s a cool cave. The one benefit to being trapped inside by the heat is that I have more time to catch up…
