Να και ο Δεκέμβρης!  Το δέντρο το αγοράσουμε για φέτος πριν κάτι μέρες, αλλα πρεπει να το στολίσουμε. Φέτος το δέντρο θα είναι στο μπαλκόνι για να το βλέπουν και οι γείτονες.  Άντε να περάσουν οι 20 μέρες να αρχίσουν

 Παρασκευή και 13, και 2020 αυτό τον μήναΤρίτη και 13 και 2020 τον περασμένο μήνα!Burn some sage ;-) 

 It's voting day!  Time to go and engage with this civic duty...also time to take out the trash...

 Καλό μήνα λοιπόν!  Να και ο Νοέμβρης. Αν και ο Αρκάς το πάει πως λάσπη και βροχές, εγώ το βλέπω πιο πολύ για χιόνια. Αυτό τον μήνα πρέπει να βάλω την έρευνα στην τρίτη, γιατί όλο τον Οκτώβρη είχα κολλήσει στην δεύτερη.

Happy Halloween!Well, this one is going to be odd!  We had our first snow yesterday, it's cold out there, the coronavirus is still looming, and Salem is closed for Halloween.  I guess it's going to be quiet today...Google's doodle this year is pretty fun.  You play a browser game as a little black cat who tries to rid the land of ghosts, only to inadvertently cast them off to sea.

The other post was getting a bit long, so I am continuing it here (who knows, there may even be a part III!) Marvel's Agents of SHIELD I rather liked this series.

Να και ο Οκτώβρης. Τα φύλλα έχουν αρχίσει να πέφτουν και να αλλάζουν χρώμα.  Ο καιρός ακόμα αίθριος, και ακόμα με τα κοντομάνικα και τα σορτσάκια, αλλά μέχρι πότε;  Το Σάλεμ είναι πολύ άδειο και ήρεμο.  Συνήθως αυτό

How to Be Black by Baratunde R. Thurston My rating: 5 of 5 stars I won this book at a conference a few years back (Baratunde was one of the keynote speakers) and I finally had a chance to read it.  For someone who didn't spend all of my formative years in the US, I think the subject is approached in a humorous and approachable manner.

Star Trek: The Stardate Collection Volume 1 by Scott Tipton My rating: 5 of 5 stars This was fun to read.
