Reposting in honor of Ray Bradbury’s birthday. 🎉 8-22-1920
After school, I walked to the library and waited for my parents to finish work. It was a small library, a small town. I was always quiet.
One day, while investigating a low shelf, I fished out a skinny booklet: There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury. Everything vanished as the clock sang. 📚💙✍️

Now that Thanksgiving dinner is done, I can focus on this scarf. I’m a little more than halfway done with it. I want it finished by Sunday, so I can wear it Monday when our temps plunge.

Film noir I watch over and over the prompt says. There are a few that I frequent. Not that I love them so much necessarily. Maybe it's what is free or sitting on my hard drive at that moment.
But I do watch Laura quite a bit. And I really do enjoy that one.
