@BagOfLazers Such a beautiful dog! 💜

Don't tell the beagle I live with that I said that. He'll start competing and they'll get too cute for me to handle.

Also, in taking care of my plants today, I have decided Keanu Leaves is the best named of all my plant friends.

Golden pothos. Vines of leaves EVERYWHERE!

I got more done today than I have in the whole past two weeks! Which is...not much. But getting well takes time and energy, and I'm claiming this victory!

@NikkiBuschEdit I'm hoping being a little ahead now will help when the last week gets here. That's when things usually slow down a lot for me!

@BaileyPrice Hashtags definitely seem to be more useful here. Not just for promotion.

@thathmc No! I'm going to forget to write for the rest of the month and watch it all fall apart! 😄 Honestly, I've worked this hard to stay ahead just in case something does happen. I want that safety cushion.

@BaileyPrice The general community will appreciate that, but I personally depend on seeing people talk about it to even know what's going on. I was thankful for posts about the World Series because the Astros are the favorite team for my family, I have great memories of going to games, but I wouldn't have known they made it without social media. 😄

I'm at 40,019 words for #NaNoWriMo ! 🥳

#CoSoWritingCommunity - Friends, I will not use this for my own writing. Somebody, please start rewriting all of Shakespeare's plays as modern erotica. Military erotica, political erotica, witchcraft erotica. I mean, it's all there, really. He already wrote it. You're just editing it.

@BlueMan2 That's pretty much it! I have actually faked my way through conversations in stores by just being really vague in my responses.

@kel Good luck! Our house is still getting over it. Week 1: Whatever, just get my fever down. Week 2: The house is falling apart, but I need a nap.

I understand some sportsball event is happening. I'm, um... not into sportsball. I have learned over the years to say very vague things like, "That was some game, huh?" and, "How'd you like that one play? Everybody's gonna talk about it for months!"

Mostly, though, if you like sportsball, I hope the event is enjoyable for you no matter who wins.

Still working on getting my #NaNoWriMo word count up this weekend. I'm not behind, but I'm not as far ahead as I was before. I want some space in case I don't have good writing days all through the rest of the month.

Yeah... I've done this before. I know what happens.

Everything seems kind of excitable tonight. Did y'all tell the new folks about the Wall of Entropy?

@miserable_day That looks like such a beautiful book! We're still waiting for me to grow out of my "dinosaur phase", but I've been in it since fifth grade and I'm in my 40s, so...🤷‍♀️

The Tylosaurus was one of the biggest of the Mosasaurs. And why are people accepting the Jurassic Park franchise as an accurate source of information? Their dinosaurs didn't even have feathers!

Friends, I need to vent. I keep seeing videos and such asking who would win in a fight between a Tylosaurus and a Mosasaurus, and determining it would be Mosasaurus because they were bigger. And apparently this information is coming from how they are portrayed in Jurassic World?

I admit I've only seen the first Jurassic Park movie and don't really remember anything other than Jeff Goldblum.

But here's my problem...
