What I Read This Week: June 10, 2018

on

This week started out just fine. It was work and being home. You know - basic week stuff. Then, ooooooh then, then it was glorious.

On Thursday night, my hockey team, the Washington Capitals, somehow managed to make the Vegas Golden Knights drop four games in a row... and win the Stanley Cup. Thursday was a wonderful evening with cheering and happy tears and so. many. awesome. reaction. GIFs. If you need a pick me up, just go watch videos or GIFs of Alex Ovechkin. Even if he's not on your team, it's hard to not be happy seeing him. The joy is addictive.
  • Books
    • I nearly managed to get halfway through The Lying Game by Ruth Ware. So far it's just as additive as her other story. She's leaving breadcrumbs throughout the story and I'm just loving how it is all coming together.
