Fantasy and horror books and blogposts
I've read so many good books over the last two months, and I wanted to share now that I'm settled in enough to collect my thoughts! I'd recommend every book on this list, depending on what you're looking to read next, but wow was my reading all over the place this summer. So in no... Continue Reading →
Hello, folks! It's time to talk about a subject I've pontificated on before on this blog. That is, specifically, the invisible work that goes into writing. I will have been in Seattle for three weeks as of this Sunday, and I've gotten a lot of stuff done. You haven't necessarily been able to see that,... Continue Reading →
Last time, I talked about visiting Yellowstone National Park. That could have been the capstone to our trip. It wasn't. Our last planned stop on our roadtrip to Seattle was Glacier National Park. Glacier was the S.O.'s big goal for this trip, but it's a very hard park to visit. It's not designed for the... Continue Reading →
Hello! If you're just catching up, last time we were in the Badlands National Park and I was having existential thoughts about deceased forests. From the Badlands we continued west to Shoshone National Forest, crossing the Little Bighorn Mountains. We stopped in Cody, Wyoming for a truly bad coffee milkshake first. (It had potential, but...

Hey, folks! Good to see you. It's time for Part 2 of my Roadtrip West series wherein I recount some of my adventures in the month of July. To catch up, check out Part 1: The Road. From Sioux Falls, SD, we drove an easy four and a half hours to the Badlands National Park.... Continue Reading →
Hey folks! To make up for not posting for two weeks and to share the joy that has been the past month, this week the blog is going to become a travel blog. You're going to get a post from each leg of our trip, starting today, and ending with Friday. Feel free to skip... Continue Reading →
Hey folks! The S.O. and I have arrived safely in Seattle. I'll do another post talking about some of the awesome stuff we saw on the roadtrip out, but we've had some upsets in our scheduling and I haven't had my computer this week (the S.O. ended up having a lot of virtual education to...

You may notice that I didn't post last week. Usually I give warning if I am not going to post, but honestly last week was an entire mess that I largely can't discuss and I've fallen behind in my blog queue given the whirlwind of June. My brother got married on the 21st, we bought... Continue Reading →
June has been an absolute riot of activity, and I almost didn't get this post written. My brother got married, we're planning for our trip, we bought a car somehow??? The mechanics of buying the car are of course understood but the buying of the car was kind of a surprise. Anyway, there's a lot... Continue Reading →
I've been to several in-person, mask-free events recently. I didn't intend for them to be mask-free, but upon arrival found that I was the only person masked. I probably could have doubled down and made a statement -- did for the first one. But several of these were work events and the politics get....a little... Continue Reading →
