• Day 3 – Holidays and Horse Sh*t

    Where do I even begin. Very little surprises me about why the holidays get canceled for me. Working retail, the last two months of the year is an absolute shit show. Ranging between customers complaining about sales to now ring worm kittens, celebrations have never been a good time. Yes I am a full on scrooge, but after 5 years of this nonsense, who wouldn’t be?

    Looking at my books bring both excitement at the prospects of reading them and reviewing them, and the dread of reading them and reviewing them. I am struggling to think of this as a fun process for my mental well being and as a distraction from this hell scape holiday season.

    I think I will be doing a number generator for selecting the twelve books, doing it by the shelves. I’m gonna focus primarily on physical books for the twelve of the year. I have a shit ton of Mangas and will exclude though from the series just because I know how manga and web comics work. Some of them are never ending.

    Now on this mess of a book shelf I counted 80 books ((I could have sworn I had more – maybe that’s what I get for not counting the Mangas ha)). I have read a handful of them already so I’ll exclude those ones if the number lands on them

    So I’m gonna go through a number generator!

    I’m excited for the 12 books of 2026 so wish me luck its something good!

  • Day 2 – When the Abyss Flirts Back

    Well, this may be harder than originally thought of. Naturally that is more often than not the case when starting big passion projects.

    I figured I would go through my inventory of books across all formats- nook, Kindle, and physical. I doing so I realized how many duplicates I have. Whoops. Currently I am writing a list of all the books on my nook account, seeing how that one is the least active.

    I love Barnes and noble, I just wish their e reader experience was a bit more friendly. Having to log into the account on a computer to purchase books, just adds to the steps. I would much rather support Barnes and Nobel however, its just not as easy. I do however will drive an hour to the nearest store and wonder the aisles like a child in a candy store.

    Kindle made their formats way to convenient and synced together. The ease of purchasing or downloading books makes choosing that app the obvious win. I just don’t like Amazon for what it is, although I use that website like its life support most days.

    Physical books are amazing and I love seeing them all on my book shelf, collecting dust, untouched for who knows how long. Sigh. I am a sucker for a good art cover and if I heard little snippets of the plot, I shall pick it up.

    This is where I get into the danger zone of having all the duplicates. Now I like the concept of trophy books, having a copy of one book you finished reading. But I do need to get in the better habit of actually reading said books. That’s why I’m excited for the next year of picking a book at random and just leaping into this project

    I should sit down and put everything in in one of those random wheel things and let fate take the wheel to pick books. That or some random generator. Because at first glance, this is rather daunting.

    Trying to keep the spirits of a new project is rather challenging this time of year. Typically I can bottle it up and just deal with it. But now that I have a semi creative outlet, I should be feeling better.

    I am off to count my books and shelves. Weeeee.

  • Day 1 – Plotting the LoopHoles

    Yeah, so no clue what to do really. Been thinking about doing something like…. this?? for a while now.

    I love the whole alter egos, masked self shows true self nobody knows you’re a dog on the internet, sort of motifs. And I have no idea how I landed on this Bunny themed persona. Either way here we go.

    GOALS

    • Book reviews
    • Art Work
    • Independent Writtings
    • Showing off my DustMites ((they’re cats and they are cute))
    • Doing anything beyond laying on the floor in Cheetos dust doom scrolling instagram
    • Money conscious, health conscious, food conscious
    • Touch Grass!

    And I am sure there will be others beyond that.

    SCHEDULE

    • Preferably daily life updates, focusing on random quotes from the current read
    • Once a week a bigger review on chapters completed
    • Once a month, more or less an essay and review on the book of the month.

    I want to do something for once in this grand year of turning 34. To have something that I made to look back on. And for it to be substantial enough for myself to remember. I barely recall what I did last week.

    After weeks of drowning in retail ground hogs day, I just – want something different.
