mad_tea_partyToday was a mixed bag. I wasn't feeling well for the most part, and then I had the bright idea of having my friends come over. I love Jeanette and Howard, but my biggest pet peeve with them is that they smoke way too much. They don't do it in the house, but still. What's the point of trying to do anything when you're going to go outside every five minutes to do smoke? Hardly anyway to be productive.
So after they left, I tried to lay down for a bit. But then I realized that my hard cover copies of the Splintered series had come in.
These are just the jackets! Aren't they gorgeous? :) I am so jealous of the author having such a wonderful cover artist. But if I thought the jackets were gorgeous....check out the covers by themselves:
The fourth book is called Untamed, and I didn't take a jacket cover pic of that one, but it's just as gorgeous.
I also watched a live stream of a Miss Crustacean Pageant for hermit crabs today. And I was sickened by the conditions these crabs were made to be in, and I was so glad that we had a representative from the Crab Street Journal there to give out proper care sheets. I was very upset by the whole thing, and will probably never watch one again.
AFter that, I started looking through the tank gently because we aren't supposed to really dig around the substrate when they're down in case they're molting. But what I was looking for was a tunnel, or sign of life that they were okay. I found a tunnel under the same dish I'd found Kit under the other day. That made my night even though I still didn't see a crab tonight.
Carpal tunnel is acting up so I'm going to get off and read. I love you guys, and thanks for reading and commenting. It's nice to know someone out there gives two shits about what I'm thinking about and feeling.

Date: 2017-08-17 10:27 pm (UTC)Cigarette smoke was the hardest part of living in Tennessee as there's still a lot of bars that allow smoking indoors, which blows my mind. It always makes me queasy. (That being said, while I've never smoked, I've been craving something... I dunno if it's just stress, but I've been thinking about the cigar I tried once and just wanting something to busy my mouth.)
My knees have bothering me like hell. I know we're supposed to be getting rain tonight/tomorrow. How often does the weather trigger your carpal tunnel?
