October 2016 in Review

Things that Happened in October

  • First of all, is October really over already!! Where did October go?
  • I had my first really bad glutening in quite some time yesterday. It was terrible. People have also been questioning my food choices which prompted this Twitter thread.
  • As I am working on this, I have such a terrible headache that I hope this manages to look half-way decent when it posts.
  • Grad school has been exhausting me on top of teaching and everything else I do.
  • I just started a Facebook page for the blog but there isn’t a whole lot there yet.
  • I didn’t get as much read as I should have this month. I am falling behind on grad school reading and ARCs.

Things I’m Looking Forward to in November

  •  Thanksgiving, even though I can’t eat any of the traditional foods… 🙁  It will be a nice break from my students though I know I will be working on graduate school stuff.
  • Hopefully, no more glutening… like this is ever going to happen, but it would be nice.
  • ADVENT STARTS SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Can you tell I am a bit excited?)
