First week of the semester and I spilled coffee in my office three damn times.

Enough with all these Beatles movies. When do we get our Monkees biopic?

I think $29 is too much to pay for a hardcover novel. But at least when I pay that much, I’m sure to read the dang thing rather than let it molder on the TBR pile. #amreading #writingcommunity #books

I’m going to stop buying shirts from the bands I love (which never fit), and instead find some nice-fitting secondhand shirts and just start liking those bands. #shirt #shirts

What’s your oldest t-shirt, and why have you kept it? This bad boy is circa 2007, and it’s worn down so much that it’s too comfortable to give up and any secondhand place would throw it out anyway.

The world might not believe this, but I’m once again dissatisfied with the sizing of a shirt I bought online. #shirt

A little advice: when reading a novel, set your phone across the room.

(Case in point: I was reading thirty minutes ago, but now I’m embarrassingly caught up on word games and sports scores.)

I dreamed last night that there were more tuna packets in the pantry than there really are, and I consider myself a “creative person.” #writingcommunity
