Reading Frankenstein in class, and a student gave me this. It's a night light but also a Scentsy.
A plug-in of the creature from Frankenstein.

@darkartsupcycle.bsky.social I wore them yesterday when I taught about how Frankenstein came about and all the t about the Romantics. ❤️
It's a picture of part of my face because I'm showing off my Mary Shelley earrings. In the background is a neon sign that says read books and be kind. And a black sweater hanging on my cabinet.

If you see this, post a cat!
A big black cat sitting peacefully in a pile of bougainvillea leaves. An orange cat laying on a cheetah like print blanket on a bed. He's half in the dark half in the light.

Happy International Cat Day.
Maybe that's why one of them left me a big dead rat this morning.

@ladyofsardines.bsky.social I got my card today and a little surprise. 😊
Thank you.
A hand drawn card that has a clock in a yellow greenish color but instead of times it says love, try, , study, struggle, feel, defend, defy, protect, support, organize, build, as there is a quote from Grace Lee Boggs that says, "I want people to ask themselves and each other what time it is on the clock of the world." And there's another card that says losers attack our libraries fight for librarians.

Share a random shelfy. #booksky
Two shelves with books. The top one has a bunch of Jane Austen, DH Lawrence, some other classics. Classics. The bottom shelf as a number of Japanese comfort books in translation.

Monday tea is always pu'erh.
In the forefront is a white teacup with a pink flower on the lip and a pink flower on the outside of the teacup. The tea inside is a dark brown pu'erh. Behind the teacup is a black teapot with a brown lid and a light brown handle

I was putting a book in my book box, and I saw the title of this book, and that was the tea I was drinking this morning, so I figured I needed to take the book and read it.
The cover of the book titled Gunpowder Green. The border of the book is a lightweight color with flowers and at the top it says a key shop mystery with a teapot and then there is a picture of the title with a green handless teacup, an Old fashioned gun mint leaves growing and some flowers that are sitting on a table. At the bottom of this it's his New York times bestselling author Laura Childs.

#booksky I finished this book yesterday. What a delightful read. The power of cats. "A cat a day keeps the doctor away."
Blue cover. There is a pill bottle with a cat sitting in it. The cat is gray and black striped with white around its nose and white on its chest. The title of the book is over the prescription bottle which is We'll Prescribe You a Cat. And smaller print near the top of the pill bottle It says cats are always the purrfect cure.

One of the best. Funny.
A fluffy light brown cat with white down his forehead and around his nose. Green eyes. He is in a brown suit jacket with a white shirt and a blue tie. Near the bottom is the title of the book in all caps in yellow Starter Villain. Below that in smaller all caps in white it says New York Times Bestseller Author. Below that in larger white all caps is the author's name John Scalzi.
