I hate Jerry Jones and I hate Micah Parsons's agent. "We need to stop the run, so we can get rid of a generational lying talented pass rusher. We don't need that." Dumb. So dumb. We consistently get knocked out of the playoffs (when we even make them) by the team you just stacked to destroy us.

Since September 22nd is the first day of Fall, I have just under 1 month to reads the last 2 books on my Summer TBR. With all my library and Libby holds popping all of a sudden, that might be a tad difficult, but I'm up for the challenge.

Rolled credits last weekend on Donkey Kong Bananza. My 10yr old son is 2 bosses from it as well. He's making me proud.

No amount of feeling bad will change the craziness going on, and yet, I can't stop feeling bad about it.

And just like that, New Spring is finished, and I complete my (first of many) journeys through the Wheel of Time. Going to enjoy a few non-fantasy reads before jumping back into the genre and looking forward to returning to WoT some day.

I did it #booksky. I made it through all 14 mainline books in The Wheel of Time. What an ending. What an amazing adventure. I'm going to go ahead and start up A New Spring tomorrow, but man, I'm going to miss Rand, Mat, Perrin, and all the rest. Wow. #WoT #Speechless #Amazing

I have been on a book tear recently. In the last month, I finished 1984, Towers of Midnight, Moon of the Turning Leaves, Onyx Storm, and the Storied Life of AJ Fikry. I am also halfway through both A Memory of Light AND Happy Place. It's been quite the ride! #Booksky

Happy Bobby Bonilla Day everyone. Another year, another 1.19 million dollars paid to a man who has not played baseball since 2001. I chuckle every time.

Burning out bad in IT. If any of my games industry friends know of someone hiring, hit me up. I was so much happier there.

Finished Towers of Midnight. One book left in the Wheel of Time. Taking a quick break to read a classic before diving into A Memory of Light, after which I may tackle New Spring. We'll see. #Booksky #WoTsky #TheWheelWeaves

My son asked me why I don't work in video games anymore. The first time he ever showed interest in the fact that I ever did.

I read 5 books last week. I haven't read that many in a week since CATS testing in grade school when I first discovered Fear Street. #Booksky

I just finished Season 3 of The Wheel of Time (since I am on book 12, I figured I was safe from spoilers). There were some creative choices made. Choices indeed. #WoTsky

During the colder months, I make my Old Fashion with a rye forward bourbon, usually a Wild Turkey 101 or Four Roses Single Barrel, for the cinnamon spice notes. Spring and summer bring out the wheaters. The Wellers and Maker's Marks. The sweet months are upon us, my friends. #Bourbon

So I just want to put out in the world, for anyone who has not already done this, go get a LIBRARY CARD! For yourself. For your community. For your future. Support your local library, because if you check their calendar, I bet they are trying to support you, even if they struggle with funding.
