Monday media while trying to suppress stress

[bironic]

This general uptick in Dreamwidth activity has been great. Hello, new friending meme people! I should do an intro post soon about things I'm into these days. Tonight, though, I am packing for a trip to my mom's and more or less beta-watching a documentary by a coworker. Or-*checks clock*-possibly neither of these things. It was sort of a rough day

All the good thoughts for your Mum's surgery!

Thank you! Things seem to have gone well today. Now we watch the recovery. <3

Aww, I've heard good things about Akata Witch and always want to support bookclub reading authors who are not white dudes, but I have acquired a 3rd Thursday conflict so may well not make it :( Maybe I'll read those 2 anyway and we can get coffee sometime to chat about them?

Yeah, everything seems to happen on Thursdays. I'm enjoying the book so far, and Binti was great - will be nice to talk about it with more people. Since brunch might be alternating Saturdays and Sundays now, we would have more opportunities.

I got the Meetup reminder about bookclub and realized the date had initially been input wrong and bookclub meets on second Thursday -- so I may actually be able to make it in future (I have a 3rd Thursday commitment but not a 2nd Thursday commitment).

I read Binti tonight, but Akata Witch is still on its way to me (interlibrary loan), so regardless of weather I won't make it tomorrow, but would definitely be into chatting with you. And yes, looking forward to brunch alternating so I can make it again -- especially now that I'm consuming fannish media again (Riverdale, as you may have seen in Twitter).
