The <^> Game | V.19

[grey matter]

I have too many.
Highlights:
Nimona by Noelle Stevenson - Love me some villain protags?
Dark Lord by Jamie Thomson - Actually, not my favorite favorite but intro'd me to one of my favorite tropes.
anything by Rick Riordan - he's just a great author and I love his work
Some Are Born Cats by Terry and Carol Carr (as found in Creatures from Beyond) - It Just Makes Me Feel Nice, Okay?
The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia - ...comfort book

^ Love your profile pic! Is that the song about not wanting to get out of the futon?
> Halloween emotions are in full swing. Cannot wait for this early afternoon's class session so I can reccomend we listen to Shayfer James's "For The Departed" because big spook... or the Monster Mash because that's been stuck in my head for days. It lives in my head rent free because I invited it in on accident. It's out for my blood. // edit: or any other song I so desire? Also, currently helping the Web Archive in case someone later down the line wants to access the Tom Lehrer website since it's going down in 2024.
v Favorite die (as in, dice) shape? You can define it by the face shape, the overall shape/number of sides, or by calling it a "d#" or what have you. A why would be nice, and if you have a specific die or dice set you really like, please describe it! I like dice...

i have an ugly little mustard coloured d4 that i love. it's the WORST shade of yellow, and has white numbers. i got it for ten cents out of a giant bucket of assorted dice at a game store. i don't use it terribly often, but its small and pointy and seeing it always reminds me of the day i got it. i've moved pretty far away from that store, and seeing the die brings up a lot of fond memories. : )

^ i hope your day goes well and that you have a good music time in class!
> i've been on hold with the veterinarian for twenty minutes!! guess they're busy haha. ALSO an eevee plush i ordered wasn't supposed to be here until next week BUT she's out for delivery today?? i am BLESSED and HYPED.
v is there something you're looking forward to today?

> it's rainy outside and i had some oatmeal- the day is going pretty okay so far! i'm going to get started on cleaning/chore stuff in a few. i have a few phone calls to make later that i'm not looking forward to, but i'm trying to stay optimistic.
v do you have a favorite mug? please describe it!

[_Cactusz_Corner_]

I do! It’s this tiny little white mug that barely holds anything. It’s called a squirrel mug. I got it at a white elephant a few years ago.

^Have fun on the phone calls!
>I really should be working on a project due tonight. I’m going to work on it soon.
