Got in the car with husband, asked him what we should listen to, and with no hesitation he said K-Pop Demon Hunters...no complaints here. 😂

Woke up at 4:30 this morning and couldn't go back to sleep, so I decided to finish my book...talk of a recession and full on weeping while reading a Hunger Games novel when I should have been sleeping? Ahh, had me feeling 17 again. 😭😂

Samuel L. Jackson: "Salutations! It's your uncle, Sam."

Good Morning America: "Samuel L. Jackson, who wore a red, white, and blue-themed outfit."

...🙄

Jackson, who wore a red, white, and blue-themed outfit."

I really need to get a new desk...attempting to write in my room isn't turning out to be super productive for some reason. 🤔

#aspiringauthor #writersky #booksky #catsky
Cat lying on lap, head resting on lower forearm as I attempt to type on my laptop that sits in front of us both. Cat lying in the crook of my neck, butt basically in my face as she sleeps while cuddling my arm, resting her head on my bicep. My arm is turned up curling around her back, making it impossible for me to type on my laptop that rests on my stomach.
