How long can I last at family Thanksgiving without talking about Wicked: For Good?

Gonna watch some of episode 1.04, "The Great Wave," for my #TROPRewatch while I wait for my mom!

Started this brick (A Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon) on my drive today! I also have the hardback for non-car reading

I sat a few rows closer and cried EVEN MORE the second time. There's a correlation there...
Wicked: For Good cry count: NINE. NINE TIMES. 😭😭😭

Is the universe not letting me move home until I finish writing my next book? Sources say: it's possible

Got behind on #TROPRewatch because of visits and events, but I'm here for episode 3, "Adar"!

Surprise, surprise: I can't stop thinking about Wicked: For Good!

Probably the hardest job my future partner will have is trying to stop me from buying all the special popcorn tins

I'm going so slowly. I think I need to tell myself I can't go see Wicked on Friday unless I finish the reread. It's only 130 pages!
I'm at the point in my fantasy manuscript where I have to go back and reread the first 200 pages to make sure my revisions are on track.

Happy to report the first chapter is a bunch of people telling the protag, "Girl, get UP. You're embarrassing us!"

This is gonna be so fun for her!

I've been listening to a lot of G Flip this week! This one's a particularly fun song:

I'm having complicated and frustrated thoughts about having to see reminders all over my feed that the president said something jaw-droppingly fatphobic in public while at the same time wondering how many of those people themselves make fat jokes and only clock this one as bad because Trump said it

Today, I finished the last 2 episodes of a 6-episode limited series that I started...2 years ago. 😆 Even I don't understand why my brain functions the way it does!

I found this while cleaning the other day. I don't remember anything about where I was or why I was doodling, but hey, that could be a start to a neat dungeon!

I thought I had 15 minutes left in my audiobook, but I actually had 4! So now I'm done with Tress of the Emerald Seas. whee

I convinced my friend to watch Supergirl because she stopped in season 4, and now she's on the most painful episode, when Lena betrays Kara! And because I like angst, I'm like this:

Sometimes you just gotta reset by listening to "Old Tom Bombadil," you know?
