May is my least favorite month of the year…you’d think it would be a happy month, on account of my birthday being in May. But May will always be associated with my grandpa’s death. And since it was about 10 days before my birthday, I always associate the two, probably because I was still grieving.
Last year, for pretty much the whole month, I randomly cried, felt really depressed, and didn’t want to get out of bed at all. So far, nothing out of the ordinary, and hopefully it’ll stay that way.
I’ve been listening to this one podcast called Greetings From Nowhere, which I heard about on this other podcast, and it’s hysterical. It’s these 2 women who live in Wenatchee, Washington, talking about their lives in Wenatchee and what it’s like living in a small town. I’m slowly starting to catch up, but they make living there sound like so much fun! The Viva La RLF, Schwanbeck Stories, and the CBS, you rat bastards episodes are my 3 favorites episodes so far. I totally find myself responding to what they’re saying, and other times, I’m laughing hysterically at something they’ve said.
I still need to catch up on Inside The Podcasting Studio, which will happen after I catch up on Greetings From Nowhere. There aren’t as many episodes, and they’re about half the length, so it won’t take as long. From there, I’ll probably alternate between Accio Potter Wizard Radio and the Jane Austen Podcast until they’re both done.
I have a nice stack of library books too! Most of them are by Alison Weir, plus a David Starkey book. And I checked out the first two books from the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, to balance all of the long, non-fiction books I decided I needed to read. Yay for being busy!
