Do not meddle in the affairs of apparently harmless middle-aged women, for they are subtle and quick to anger

No DMs because Bluesky won't let me.

been (re)reading the Death books this month, working up to seasonal reread of Hogfather which I'm starting tonight.

Hogswatch is coming!

(don't approve of these new Discworld covers. If it's not Josh Kirby it's not really Discworld! But this is what my epub copy has stuck me with)

In what may be the most middle aged, middle class thing I have ever done, I have a new favourite flavour of San Pellegrino (in my defence, I am not currently drinking C2H5OH so having to investigate alternatives)

Added the first Series of Unfortunate Events book to my Xmas holidays TBR, after a (very lovely) student recommended the books "because it's the story of your life". Very curious to find out what they think the story of my life is!

I really am shockingly bad at geography. In my defence, Russia is shockingly vast.

#TFW you're enjoying your nonfiction book when the author qoutes Jared Diamond and you feel the ire of @uglyshmugly.bsky.social rising

It's been a very long term and we're all very tired. But then a Christmas card from a lovely Year 7 reminds you why it's all worth it.

I had been doing quite well with breaking up with Jeff B's Evil Empire this year. But as some health issues have intervened, I might have to wrap myself in a "No ethical consumption under capitalism" banner and buy from him after all.

I'm not saying my mum's right that I will never grow up. But I have just asked Santa for a pair of Scotland pyjamas to when I have to get up in the middle of the night for world cup matches in the summer

Sometimes you just need some pterry in your life. This is one of those times. Imma re-read the Death books, leading up to the seasonally appropriate Hogfather.
Hogswatch is coming!

What I read/listened to in November, via @thestorygraph.com

Currently on 337 day reading streak, 60 books read so far this year (26 was my target!). Yay for consuming books on paper and ereader and audio. In the words of the mighty #BookGoblin, Book Is Book.

The sleep coach on my Garmin says I need to relax today and avoid stressful activities, particularly before bedtime.

Not today, Garmin. Not today.
