Lots of books, lots of video games, a lot of cross-stitching and generally in a low-lying state of annoyance. Don't tell people what they can and cannot read, it's annoying.

You can leave Matthew Lillard's name out of your mouth, Quentin.
Matthew Lillard is a national god damned treasure, not only as an enjoyable as fuck actor, but as a D&D ambassador and co-owner with his friends of Beadle & Grimm's (makers of the best D&D accessories on the market.) The only person who looks worse for Quentin shitting on him is fucking Quentin.

I mean, I despise what is likely to happen to prices, but Stranger Things Vs Superman could maybe work?
Can't wait to watch STRANGER THINGS VS SUPERMAN on the new streaming service, NETBOFLIX+ NOW GO MOBILE ULTIMATE which I got on a Black Friday deal for $112 a month

Me: I have a book idea that might actually be commercial!
Agent: That's great!
Me: The title is a reference to a classic 1971 Sesame Street Golden Book.
Agent: There it is.

So, weird fact: my brain gravitates toward historical romance for reading when I'm not feeling well. So, I started The Marriage Method by Mimi Matthews yesterday. This morning, I woke up with a sore throat, and as the day wore on, I developed a fever.
It's like I knew...brains are strange.

Woke up feeling...not right, with a sore throat, and now I'm running a low-grade temp.
The horrors persist, and apparently today, they're going to have to persist without me.

I read the essay. It was terrible. She provided no evidentiary support for her assertions, and the grammar was a disaster from beginning to end. Saying "I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul" would have been kind.
This is tantamount to quoting characters in Jane Austen's "Mansfield Park" making small talk about constellations for your Astronomy exam.

I did the angel tree shop today. Got the young lady I was buying for $70 in Nintendo gift cards, as she wanted Switch games and since I don't know what she plays, I will simply facilitate her ability to choose for herself.
Also a lot of clothes.
