Oh, I realised it might be because I'm catching up on Foundation, and I've been once again marvelling at how hot Lee Pace is.

Yep, that's why.

I've thought of Halt and Catch Fire at least three times this week out of nowhere. Might be time for a third watch through.

Top five TV show of all time. Big Recommend.

Highland cattle are famous for their ability to "disco nap". Normally these brief, efficient sleeps will last between three and twenty minutes, deploying a variety of objects as pillows, including moorland boulders, cars or any particularly large dog or sheep who happens to be nearby.

Starting off Draft 4 of the novel and there's no way to avoid it, folks, this is deep into EDITING TERRITORY.

Buuuuut I made a list of tasks at the outset and mark progress on each one of as I go and I think that one decision is saving me from cognitive load burnout. I actually enjoyed today???

In less than a week, I've read the first four books. Putting him away now for a while, but I'm genuinely thankful to the series for breaking my no-reading spell.

It's been four days, and I've read the first two books.

I LOVE MURDERBOT

Not sure who told me to read Murderbot, but thank you, whoever you are. I have been saved from a giant reading rut.

I love you, Murderbot.

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes.
