Two books for spooky season:
COFFIN MOON, Keith Rosson: Best modern vampire story ever (although it's set in the 70s).
THE TWISTED ONES, by T. Kingfisher: It lures you in with chatty good humor (especially about NPR Pledge Week) and a lovely dog...then slams the door and bites you in the dark.

Spent all weekend with 20 year olds and I feel both like a field researcher and an incredibly old lady.

That said, it was a blast. And I learned many new words!

We had two perfect weather days at Disney so I suppose I can excuse the pouring rain while I need to unhook the rv and drive home.

My kid and I are going to disney this weekend and I just keep texting him all the food I want. He is ignoring me. Rude.

Only Brynne Weaver can write a character that's the softest boy but also a serial killer. It's a skill.

The cross stitch was by far the best thing about that doctors appointment but whatever.

I have to assume they just dont teach kindness in med school at all.
