@JustJesscaa Sparrows?! That looks like the right icon! 😲

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@DarthInternous It's funny... I definitely notice it in the writing of others (and it bothers me), but I'm most annoyed when I do it myself. Papers when I was still in school, cover letters while I'm job hunting (for entry-level publishing roles, go figure), and even with casual texting.

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

We'd have the windows open, but my brother's allergies are horrendous, so it's a good compromise. =]

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

Officially fall with all of the lovely temps and warm foods/beverages, and yet we're still running the a/c because it's always warmer upstairs, and lymphedema is weird.

Thankfully I live with understanding people and a somewhat understanding cat. ;]

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@JustJesscaa Or me with all of the sites that make my favorite spooky things, and all their dang sales right now.

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@altonbrown Daily photos of perfect grilled cheese sandwiches?

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@JustJesscaa Man... game industry... publishing... it all stinks. I don't even mind the interview process, I'm just sick of checking the same sites 30 bajillion times a day to try and be one of the early candidates, and not even getting an auto-response "no" on some of them. 😭 It's draining!

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@MarkHamill I love how they wait their turn! 🥰

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@GailSimone Omg, so exciting! Put this on the list of things to buy when I'm employed again. ❤️

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@TerryBrooks @DelReyBooks @goodreads Hmm... book release on my birthday... I feel like I win either way, even if I don't get an advance copy. =D

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@vortexglitter Hmm... might be more beneficial to use mind control to convince them to let me work remotely, but I appreciate the sentiment. =]

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

I wash a handful of dishes and then have to rest my feet because of lymphedema, but please, tell me again why you think I can/should relocate to NYC to work in person for an entry-level job in publishing. Because, yannow, I wouldn't be spending ANY time on my feet for that. 🙄

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

C'mon, folks. Remote opportunities in #publishing need to be more common, especially editorial. You want a more diverse staff to help create more diverse books, this is a HUGE part of that.

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

The kicker being the editorial roles where all the work is done online, and all the meetings are being done on Teams/Zoom.

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@Keizaron An ice cream social, however...

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@AlisonIsBossy Today must be "moms bringing over strawberries" day. ::laughs:: Mine did the same thing, but fresh! =]

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

It should be noted that I'm looking for that extra special unicorn, as remote is my only option. Ahahahahahahaha!

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

Refreshing the job boards like I used to refresh Ticketmaster for concert tickets. 😵‍💫Whooboy...

@BookRiot Love the TMNT love and catching Daredevil references, but there's one more! =] Don't forget about Splinter (a clear call-out to Daredevil's mentor, Stick).

Also, if you, too, still cringe over Venus from "The Next Mutation," check out Jennika from the comics... she's great. =]

[Lindsay @cinnamonclouds]

@racheldoesbooks I hope you had a happy birthday! =]
