Good morning, and happy hump day, folks! How's it going here in SG land?


I've been a bit preoccupied lately, but I want to stay somewhat active, so I decided to just post this selfie of me having coffee with my most recent enemy. I also have a bunch of sets and others' posts to catch up with soon. But for now, this mid-week selfie

@amra I definitely want to see you waking up!!

@amra Starting the morning with you would certainly be a blessing! ❀️ You could always "fake it" and take a photo of one of the cups you usually choose, lol

My next THREE reads! I've already worked my way through a few book series this year, but the roulette decided it was time for me to read another one.

What we have here, are the three first books in the crime series featuring Detective Jessica Niemi, written by Finnish author Max Seeck. There is technically a fourth book too, but I got the Norwegian translation

Oh damn. If you saw him in the Start Trek Deep Space 9 episode playing the grown up Jake Sisko, you got a sense of his tremendous acting ability that his most famous roles never revealed. So intense and so touching. He was truly a great actor.

Totally forgot to post this here yesterday, although I posted about it on FB and IG.

Behold my next read! We have another debut novel on our hands, by Sunyi Dean. First published in 2022, so I'm a little behind, but hey, books are portable time capsules anyway.


I'm intrigued by the premise: There is a secret line of people who feed on books (so

β€œNo tears, please. It’s a waste of good suffering.”

I've been a fan of the Hellraiser movies for basically my whole life. Being the bookworm that I also am, I'm ashamed that I haven't read the source material yet. But that changes today. I present to you: The Hellbound Heart!

I do know that the movies go in a direction that is severely different

You wanna know if I've started to take my coffee game seriously? Does the fact that I'm now collecting cool mugs answer your question?

I have a standard set of mugs from the supermarket πŸ€” I like to go to cafes to get my caffeine dose. This is how I can control my addiction to this drink β˜•βœ¨

Wow, blast from the past! I don’t I’ve heard about him since the early 90’s. I liked his more raw, punk sounding, singing on the early Maiden albums. Rip.
ojtheviking:
@skisby Sadly, his career was very on and off in recent years. He had a lot of health issues, had to amputate a leg, and was in a wheelchair. He was a victim of his own vices, unfortunately, and kept declining. But he still released music on occasion. His most recent album with Di'Anno (the band) was earlier this year.

How goes it, everyone? How has this week been? And what are your plans for the weekend?

I've had some downtime this week. Nothing too dramatic, sometimes I just have to readjust and redelegate my energy, and I've spent some time trying to fix my sleep schedule, and catching up with my own writing process, as I was a bit distracted for a while. I...

@littlejohn22 I've been far too good at disappearing in the past, and just erasing any trace of myself. Just look at my profile here on SG and how I've had to start over after I thought I was gone forever last year.

@skisby Yikes! Yeah, raking leaves is a lot cheaper.
