Oh, nevermind! They adjourned court. All will be as usual!
My little town (and justice court/library//town hall/complex -- where I work) is getting ready for the next court appearance of this guy. People probably don't know that Clinton has just over 4,000 people and the biggest excitement here is a horse or cow on the loose. Going to be a weird day.

I cannot stress just how important it is to let people have their early Halloween decorations and pumpkin spice drinks and be as basic as they wanna be this year without making them feel some type of way about it. Like, for your own safety.

Thinking of starting a Gen X book club here at work for a fun distraction. Tagline: Each month we explore fiction that speaks to the Gen X experience—navigating midlife, identity, family, change, and everything in between. 1st book: The Nineties by Chuck Klosterman. Any faves you'd add to the list?

People were going absolutely bananas for “Muffin Mania” at Shop Rite this morning. It was just a dude from the bakery letting people mix & match 4 muffins of their choosing into a box. Guess it’s the little things! Or feeling like you have control over something… even if it’s just muffin flavors.

A post about this movie popped up in my FB feed this week and unlocked a vague memory from when I was a kid. SO excited one of the libraries in my system had it! #horrormovies #libraries

Doing a Severance rewatch already bc my husband wants to watch it and I HIGHLY recommend a 2nd viewing. Wow… the stuff I did not pick up on the first time. It’s just SO GOOD. I have not been this obsessed with a show in a long time.

I'm taking a writing workshop tomorrow! It's been a very long time since I got excited to write for fun. Hoping to meet some other local writers, too.
