I'm in such a mood today. A depression mood.

Sigh.

So now that we're all on the same page, #NaNoWriMo is trash. It was always trash. It will always be trash. We should have learned that last year.

Ok... So I took the leap & subscribed to #Speechify. While there are a lot of AI narration tools out there, this one just felt like the best for me. It was pricey but I'll be using it for school so there's that. #AcademicLife

Hey #Bookstodon / #BookSky,.

How do you all write this } out so well in your #annotations? I've been trying for years!

Overheard:

Gen Z student l: What's the point of having a phone if you're not gonna answer it?

Me, an elder millennial:

Why did they kill off the best character on #NCISNewOrleans?! And will his actor be able to reprise his character for #FastX2? (Is it called Fast X 2 or #FastXI?)

They mentioned Brownsville, TX on #NCISNewOrleans and it has to do with cartel and terrorism. Awesome. Great. Sweet.

I don't know if my kid is awake. Wonder if I should wake him or just let a sleeping tween lie.....

That was a nice throw back to #TheFastAndTheFuriousTokyoDrift, #NCISNewOrleans.

There are 3 types of students. Those who come into SCA, see the stanchions, & take a seat in the reading room; those who come in, see the stanchions & walk right out; & those who come in, see the stanchions, ignore the stanchions, & enter restrictive areas then feign ignorance wheb caught.

The campus has really been alive with the surge of new and returning students for the Fall semester. I've been getting wild questions like "What's so special about Special Collections?" and "Why do we even have this department if we can't browse your collections?" #LibraryLife #AcademicLibrary

My #BookReview for #Eruption by Michael Crichton and James Patterson. #Bookstodon #Booksky

http://chapincityblues.com/2024/08/28/eruption-by-michael-crichton-and-james-patterson/

How is James Patterson such a popular author? His writing sucks.

I have this habit of sitting in another building until I have to go into my office. I do this to avoid speaking with coworkers who insist on mistaking me for a morning person.

I haven't read a lot of James Patterson's work. Like the only one I read was the 1st book he collabed with Bill Clinton. Maybe. Anyway, #Eruption is getting worse and worse by the chapter. #Bookstodon #Booksky

Am I... Old?

Looks like St. Martin's Press finally released an actual statement. But is it too little too late? https://static.macmillan.com/static/smp/r4a-response/

Almost finished with #Eruption (a Michael Crichton book written by James Patterson). I gotta say.... I sorta wish they would leave Crichton's unfinished work unfinished. I love his work, but this doesn't real like his work. #Bookstodon #Booksky

Listening to #TheWomanInMe by Britney Spears and read by Michelle Williams (with an intro read by Spears). It's such an emotional book. I know I'm late to this, but school and work sorta put my #TBR on hold. Glad the #LibbyApp notified me it was available to borrow. #Bookstodon #Booksky
