  • Sleepyhead.

    Work has definitely been kicking my butt lately. Our little sub-department has exactly four employees in it. Four. Our supervisor, one full timer, two part timers. It works pretty well, but when someone gets injured or sick, things get a little crazy. And it just so happens that our full timer is the one out…

  • First Reset of the Year!

    Happy Monday, everyone! I nearly forgot it was Monday, despite having been looking forward to it, because I stayed up quite a bit past my bedtime to watch the Golden Globes after work, then allowed myself to sleep in a bit, and then realizing that this meant I had less time to try to get…

  • The Books I’ve Read 2016.

    It’s that time again! My favorite new year tradition is clearing out the small bookshelf where I put all the books I’ve read within a calendar year, make a post about them, and then eagerly anticipate filling it with more books in the current year. Even the bookshelf itself is special; I remember my uncle…

  • Not Much to Reset Yet.

    Though I’ve tried to ignore it, I still have to admit that the orderly part of my brain is still twitching a little bit over the fact that New Year’s Day missed Monday by such a small margin. How perfect would it have been if the Full Year Reset happened to coincide with a Monday…

  • And Away We Go!

    It’s here, it’s here The new year is finally here! And while I’m not really down with the whole “2016 was so shitty!” thing (certain aspects of it was, of course, but I had a lot of wonderful things happen to me personally in 2016, and, really, as my boyfriend said when I asked him…

  • Everything is Illuminated, but maybe we should turn down the light a little.

    In my rush to finish up as many books as I can before the beginning of 2017 (where I shall strip my “Have Read” shelf clean and start anew), I’ve finally managed to finish Jonathan Safran Foer’s Everything is Illuminated. Foer’s made some waves in the literary community, so I was pretty stoked to finally…

  • Last Monday before Christmas.

    Man, this time of year is always so crazy; I even completely forgot to do a Monday Morning Reset Post last week. I didn’t realize it until Wednesday night, and, at that point, it just seemed silly to post it on Thursday. But I only do it to myself, having decided on December for releasing…

  • Back on Track. For now…

    Last week, I didn’t get the chance to put up my a Monday Morning Reset post. I’m not exactly sure what happened, because the last week was kind of a blur for me, but I’m sure it had to do with my mad dash to get my master draft for the World Unknown Review Volume…

  • Work, work.

    Titled so because that blasted Hamilton song has been playing on repeat in my head since Saturday evening, but also because I’ve genuinely been getting a lot of work done in these past few days, thanks to an inordinate amount of time off of work-that-actually-pays-me. I can hardly believe it’s already Monday, but I’m happy…

  • When Monday nearly passes you by…

    Oh, shit. I was so wrapped up in the new story I started today that I just about nearly forgot to make my Monday post today! I might have completely skipped it out of negligence if I hadn’t received a rejection email and got up to mark it on the board, and it rushed back…
