Weekend Reading 10.31.26

look at this boy!

Happy Halloween! It has not been a very productive couple of days as I have a guest. His name is (tentatively!) Arlo, and he is staying with me for a few days — I got him as a gift for my parents. My dad is not too keen on another cat, so there is a small chance that I will keep him, but I am so in love with him already. He is the friendliest little snuggle bug, greets guests when they come over, just the best. Tyrion and Jaime aren’t thrilled but are actually handling having a visitor pretty well, all things considered.
