1. Work continues to be discombobulating for just about everyone. I'm trying not to slide into depression or paranoia. I keep reminding myself - public agency, member of a union.

2. Reading slump continues. The book I'm currently reading spends far too much time on the YA romance, and not enough on the far more interesting problem at hand, ie. the Evil Eye Manifestation/Hauntings, and mythos. I'm frustrated with it - and like it best when we're not focusing on the somewhat juvenile romance. The two characters act like they are twelve.

I need a good horror novel to read. (No puppets or dolls - so How to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix is definitely out. Hard pass.)

I may try Nettle and Bone by TKingfisher.

Or I need a good thriller. I'm bored. I'm tempted to start reading Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children.

3. Spare by Prince Harry is better - I'm listening to his memoir. It's good, for the most part. I'm feeling sorry for him, although it's hard to feel that sorry for someone who can pretty much fly anywhere and do anything.
