Just, FYI, I've given up on twitter. Feel free to follow me on insta and YouTube though. Pickles Reads on both. 😜

When your comfort show is about ghosts, demons, and things that'll literally rip your heart out:

I can tell if you grew up working class if you check inside the oven before turning it on! Iykyk.

High rise jeans are great, until you have to sit down.

I keep oscillating between wanting to read more books and wanting to pull back to do other things. And then getting frustrated that I can't do both.

I left for work at the time I usually wake up at because I was expecting major delays due to construction. Now I'm sitting at work in my car at the time I'd usually leave because the construction hasn't started yet.

I went to two specialty grocery stores today and stocked up on some tasty things! Some Korean goodies and some gluten/corn free snacks from the Kosher section.

Came home from my long overnight to discover cat vomit on my comforter. That sounds like a more awake Courtney's problem.

My desk just collapsed. I mistakenly thought it could hold a bunch of books as I'm reorganizing my shelves. I'm hoping I can fix it!

Justifying eating chocolate pudding for breakfast by adding raspberries and granola!

Why did I think I could work, do groceries, and then come home and clean? I've never been able to do that but I still think that I can. Ugh.

If you're interested in cults, there's a documentary coming out tonight on Prime about IBLP, the cult the Duggars are a part of. I'm glad they are finally being exposed.

I woke up tired because I had a dream that I couldn't sleep.

[Courtney Pickles @picklesreads]

I also bought some fiddleheads and I'm looking forward to a tasty lunch later. Books and greens are the comfort today.

[Courtney Pickles @picklesreads]

Tempting fate with a Starbucks order this morning because I felt like a treat and I just got off a 16 hour shift and am heading straight to a book sale!!

[Courtney Pickles @picklesreads]

Home in bed. I bought 34 books for $68. I'm gonna worry about logging and shelving them after a nice long nap. Might even film a haul later.

[Courtney Pickles @picklesreads]

No reaction and just waiting for them to uncover the books. Then I get to go home and crash for 2 days.

When you eat your safe food and suddenly have a reaction.
