Sometimes autumn smacks you in the face.
Two large maple trees, still full of leaves. Leaf color ranges from dark brown-orange at the tops of the trees, through oranges and yellows, down to still green at the bottom. The color is enhanced by the angle of the late afternoon light and the bright blue sky behind them.

Mail in voting ftw! (Now if only I could opt out of politics ads for the next month...)

And the other set from the @romancingthevote.bsky.social auction went to my dear friend, the best beta reader a girl could ask for, my very own enabler of smut. Because who else would I give these bags to? (I kept the tumbler, because yes.)
A black cloth bag that has "bag of smut" printed on it in white letters and a small cream colored zipper pouch that has "smut money" printed on it in black letters. A frosted glass tumbler with a straw sticking out. The phrase "definitely reading smut" is printed on it. it is filled with a purple liquid and sits on a light colored wood surface in front of a green wall.

Now that they've safely reached their intended destinations, I can finally post about the rest of the awesome @romancingthevote.bsky.social swag that I won!
This awesome set from @tuphlos.bsky.social went to my dear friend, because sometimes stuff just says "I need to live with {X}".
A dark blue canvas bag that has the phrase "This Librarian is checked out" printed on it in white and red and Robin Bradford's book on Reader's Advisory for Romance.

Thrilled to add one of my @romancingthevote.bsky.social stickers to my laptop!
Partial image of the back of a laptop showing various stickers, including one that reads "book nerds get shit done" and one of a cartoon mouse on its hind legs holding a progress pride flag.

Not directly from @romancingthevote.bsky.social (only because I missed them as a BIN *glares*), but I couldn't resist these earrings when @measuredandslow.bsky.social added them to their store. Even cuter in person! And bonus keychain fren! 😍
pair of earrings dangling off of a single white finger. The earrings are a small grey dragon sitting on top of a pile of three books. the covers and spines of the books form a rainbow. A keychain with a cartoon-ish orca attached. It is smol and friendly.

Goodies from @romancingthevote.bsky.social are starting to come in and OMG!!! 😍

First and biggest shout-out goes to Helen for the amazing blue cross-body bag! I love it even more than I thought I would (which is saying a lot).
blue and white shoulder bag on a white background. the lower part of the bag, and one side of the strap, are decorated in blue fabric with white flowers. the rest of the bag is dark blue. blue and white shoulder bag on a white background. the lower part of the bag, and one side of the strap, are decorated in blue fabric with white flowers. the rest of the bag is dark blue. A small blue change purse sits in front of the bag. it is solid blue and matches the larger bag.

Unexpected sandal weather meant I got to add a splash of color this morning. (And extra special shout-out to @lynnemthomas.com for introducing me to American Duchess. My shoe game has been improved immeasurably!)
A woman's legs from the knee down, wearing black trousers and goldenrod colored peek-toe sandals with a small heel. She is standing on light colored concrete and there is a patch of dirt in the lower right corner and some dead leaves scattered around.

how it started // how it's going // what's next
In all good stories, there must be an ending. This is mine. After almost nine and a half amazing years, today is my last day at the Folger. Thank you, all. Catch you on the flip side!
