New Post?

[holdouttrout]

I keep thinking that I should post but also that I don't have anything super interesting to post about, and certainly note anything interesting enough to post about for the first time in a looooong time. Which I'm aware is unhelpful--honestly, short of getting married (unlikely) or having a kid (currently very unlikely), nothing would seem "interesting enough."

Let's see...

I'm mostly working from home, with some time in the office every day--mostly by myself or with a couple of other very distant folks in their own individual offices. At home I've got a little corner of my living room set up as an office, which seems silly since I have a whole spare room... but the corner I have also has an AC unit next to it. I don't use it terribly often, but then again, that side of the house doesn't get the afternoon sun and the spare room would.

Speaking of the spare room, I currently have no roommate or plans to have a new roommate. It's nice to be by myself right now and not have to worry about another person's exposure. It's also nice to just be able to do what I want without worrying about whether another person is in the way.

I also got to go to a family member's beach house for a couple of weekends in August, which was lovely and restful and has led me to realize that my family is both wonderful and totally screwed up (what else is new?).

I've been reading a TON. So many books. AND I've been good about recording them on Goodreads, so if you're on there, let me know and I'll add you.

So... is that about it? That's about it.

hello! i'm not on goodreads, but would be interested in seeing any post you'd want to make on what you've been reading.

[holdouttrout]

I might do that! It would be fun to do a little book roundup...

[stargazercmc]

I second that! I've picked up reading more a bit lately, and I'd love to see some reviews.

[holdouttrout]

Nice! I should probably do more... reviewy reviews... maybe now I'm here more often I can post about books more often, too...

Well, I asked myself the Jack O’ Neill question, and we got a dog, so there’s that. She’s half Newf, half Shepherd, or Alsatian as they are called over there, and all black. She’s almost five months old, and the size of a small Labrador Retriever, and We think she’ll look like a Dire Lab when she’s grown.

I’m glad to hear a little about how life is going for you, even if it’s not earthshaking. It’s just nice to know folks are okay and leading their lives these days when there has so very much turmoil around the world. Sometimes hearing that life is just ticking on as usual is comforting.

Yay dog!!! I am assuming that icon is her pic. Very cute!

Yep. My black pup at eight weeks, and this Golden is my brother’s, who was ring bearer at his wedding.

But I don't know that I ever post about anything that interesting, so why not just post anyway? Which I see you've done!

I'm on Goodreads - havocthecat - but I think you might have me added? It would help if I were ever on Goodreads.

Hi! Good to see you!

[holdouttrout]

Apparently I don't have you added over there! I have rectified that now. I mean, I barely use it other than recording books I read, but I'm trying to do more reviews, at least.

Hi!
