I went to the post office to buy stamps for my bag full of cards for #HolidayCardSwap.

All I had to do was buy stamps, put them on the cards, then mail them.

I bought the stamps and made it all the way to my car before I realized I had forgotten the last two steps.

Doh!

Don't worry, Littens, the cards are on their way despite my absent-mindedness.

tracey38 Hey, it's been that kind of year! 4y

I mailed out my #allhallowsreadswap package to @Wastedmindsx this morning. Sorry Elizabeth, I just realized the card never made it into the box.
Anyway, the 📦 is from me and I hope you enjoy the treats.

CloakNQuill Thank you! No worries, I‘ll keep my eyes out for it. 4y

Oops! I said I was only going to see if there were any Ishiguro books for sale and leave if none...two books and one DVD later...🙊

LauraBeth This looks like a very restrained haul! Congratulations! 👏👏 5y
Ruthiella @LauraBeth Thanks! It could have been worse! 😉 5y
Aimeesue If there are no Ishiguro books on offer, you have to console yourself somehow! I mean, that's a terrible state of affairs. 5y

My storytime thing I am doing on YouTube, which was supposed to be starting there today, is only having a soft release today. I was not able to get my channel up and running soon enough, so I can't stream there yet. I'll post it tonight after I stream it on Facebook, but feel free to subscribe now for updates! (Book will be The Secret Garden!) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJA1K5F84tRxN8b8R1d1ikw?view_as=subscriber

So, this is interesting, I ordered a book called Old Baggage, but this is what I received 🤔 The inside is The Tattooist of Auschwitz too! What really bothers me is that if the incorrect title hadn‘t been embossed on the outside I might not have noticed the inside pages were wrong - makes me want to check all my unread books!

Welp, it finally happened. Frankly, I‘m surprised it took this long. I finally dropped my phone in the toilet. 😱💩💀 It‘s working right now... but chances that it will continue working aren‘t good.

We‘ve decided to search for used phones on Amazon instead of buying new devices at Verizon, which may take a small chunk of days. My presence may be scarce on Litsy for the next week or so. Any tips on dealing with the shakes? #kiddingnotkidding

CouronneDhiver Rice! Does that bag of rice trick still work for water damage? 6y
monalyisha @CouronneDhiver I stuck it in rice & it seems to be doing okay but who knows what tomorrow will bring! Cross fingers! 🤞🏻 6y
callunakeep I second @CouronneDhiver I have saved many a saturated phone and a drenched laptop with rice! 6y

callunakeep @monalyisha each time i kept my wet devices in the rice for 24-48 hours and they lived out their normal lifespan without fail! 6y
Librariana Fingers crossed that the rice solution works 🤞 We shall all send positive thoughts in your direction in hopes for the best 🍀 6y
CrowCAH Hope you find a replacement soon, so the withdrawal period isn‘t long! 6y
monalyisha Thanks @CrowCAH ! I just saw you got a new phone, haha. Phones, phones, phones! 📱 6y
CrowCAH @monalyisha yup, mine was 2.5 years old and slow and the battery would drain like none other, so it definitely was time. 6y
monalyisha @CrowCAH Mine went through a phase recently where it would, totally unprompted, call emergency numbers. 😆 This was probably a blessing in (porcelain) disguise. 6y
Bookish_AF The rice trick worked for me to keep a phone functioning after an incident with a bathtub. Of course I‘d had a previous incident with a puddle where the phone did not survive so I had learned a few things to increase my chance of success 😜 It was time to replace the bathtub phone anyways but it kept working until I got the new one! 6y
monalyisha @whippoorwill815 That‘s exactly what I‘m hoping for! Functionality until the replacement arrives. 🍀🐇 6y
DimeryRene I dropped my phone in the toilet at home once. Was getting in the shower and lowering the toilet seat to put my towel on top of it. But I was lowering it with my hand that already had my phone in it. Thinking, “Don‘t you drop this phone in there.” ... plunk 💦 6y
Jilly6183 Another trick is leave it on something that blows out light air. Like the vent on a cable box. I dropped my phone in the toilet once and that worked for me! 6y
Burghbookaddict I did this a few years ago and tried the whole "put it in a bag of rice" thing. When I took it into the Verizon store (still in the bag of rice) the guy laughed at me and was like, "yeah, that doesn't actually work." ☹ Also, I buy all of my phones off Ebay now because I'm not paying $900 for a phone. 6y
Reviewsbylola Oh nooooo!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 6y
Ddzmini Look on “let it go” also sometime you can find phones on there that are great prices and in good condition 6y
monalyisha Thanks @Ddzmini ! We‘ve also been told to look at gazelle.com (info which I‘ll share in case anyone‘s in the same boat). Crazily enough, my phone is still working! 🙏🏻 But its time for new phones, anyway. Regardless, it may not effect my Litsy usage, which, let‘s be honest, is all I really care about (just kidding 😆)! 6y

And here we go again! Maybe this one will be #rebelliongate? Anyway, some video game developers from the UK want to trademark rebellion for use in virtually all art forms from video games to movies to books. Someone had already started tweeting out instances in which books have used rebellion in the title. I‘m pretty sure there‘s at least one Star Wars video game or show that has rebels or rebellion so it‘s gonna be a tough sell.

CocoReads First #cockygate and then this? Pretty soon no one will be able to say anything. 🙄 (edited) 6y

Weaponxgirl Oh for gods sake! Do people just actively want to be hated? 6y
jpmcwisemorgan @Weaponxgirl Maybe? I think it‘s an overreach but it‘s starting with video games so I‘m gonna ignore it for now. 6y
rubyslippersreads I'll be very interested to see what happens when they go up against Disney lawyers. 😂 6y
jpmcwisemorgan @rubyslippersreads Yes, but I couldn‘t find anything with rebellion in the name, just rebel(s). I didn‘t look very hard for it so it could be there. I thought of Star Wars when I saw this (so Disney) but regardless it seems like they‘re going a little broad. They want to protect their “universe” but I‘m not sure how they‘re going to manage that.

A few oopses:

First, I meant to post this yesterday and forgot. So, how‘s everyone doing on the #MountTBRchallenge? How many books chipped off that mountain to date this year? If you‘re on a book buying ban or have a book buying limit/reward in exchange for TBR books read, have you been able to stick to it?

Me, I‘ve now finished 13 TBRs of 16 total YTD.

2ndly, I basically utterly failed to hold completely from my book buying ban: 6 new books

Beckys_Books Great progress on your tbr! 7y
AnneCecilie You're doing great. I haven't finished any books yet this month, in the middle of 2, so still 8 tbr out of 16 read books. April is a new book buying ban month, but so far it's easier than in January 7y
DivaDiane @Beckys_Books @AnneCecilie Thanks! That‘s the number since January. I‘m just about to finish 3 more, but one is one of the new books I bought. 7y
See All 17 Comments
Pamwurtzler You‘re doing great! It‘s been a while since I read one of my #MountTBRChallenge books - I‘m distracted by the shiny and new. I did start one just last night though! 7y
AWahle I've read 15 out of my goal of 36. Luckily some of my book club books will count cause I already owned them, but hadn't gotten to them yet. 7y
BookishTrish I‘m at 12! And I‘ve bought like 30?!? 7y
Laughterhp I‘ve only read 6! Participating in #FreakyFriday has delayed my progress! However, next month I‘ll get back to reading off my shelves! I think I‘ve only bought 4 or 5 books this year so far, which is good for me! 😊 7y
Velvetfur I'm currently on number 4 of #MountTBRChallenge, but I've been distracted by reading 2 from #LitsyPassportChallenge and 2 from #LitsyReadingChallenge (the 'bingo' one!) and I'm also currently on a 3rd from that one too. So, soon it'll be 10 books read so far this year, which is more than I read in the whole of last year! 7y
Velvetfur Oh and I got a book from the library too which wasn't in any of the 3 challenges so it will soon be 11 this year, not 10 😂 Well done on your progress as well! 👍 7y
DivaDiane @Velvetfur You could probably count the other challenge Books toward #MountTBR, depending on when you bought them. “Overdue” or renewed library books can count too. It‘s up to you. 😊That‘s wonderful that you‘ve read so much already this year no matter which way you look at it 7y
Ash.on.the.line I‘m around 60 so far! I have plenty more though lol! I have bought books but I‘ve read more than I bought which is what I want! 😁 7y
ju.ca.no 20 MTBR books so far :) I did buy a few new books, but so far it‘s been a managable amount😊 7y
Velvetfur @DivaDiane Thank you! 7y
Cailey_Mac I haven‘t put myself on a book buying ban (hahahahaha I know I would instantly break it) but so far this year I‘ve read about 5 books that have been on my radar for quite some time, and hopefully I‘ll be able to wrap up the Lunar series soon so I can start either the Grisha series or An Ember in the Ashes! 7y
Smarkies I have slowed down a little since I now have book club books I need to get through first. But YTD, I have done 10 books. I have bought books but bought a whole lot less than what I technically would have bought previously. 😂😂 7y
mrp27 I'm proud of myself! I just completed a book today and that brings me to 5 books. If I keep on track I should meet my goal. 7y
SleepyDragon I've read 8 TBR out of 9 books YTD, but I unfortunately stumbled backwards a bit and bought a couple books at Dollar Tree. Also, I'm going to have to cheat on my TBR again (and with another political book - no less!) because my mom loaned me a book when she was visiting and will eventually expect it back. The last few weeks have been a setback, of sorts. Also, been too busy to have much reading time. 😕 7y

Mowen036 They‘re paper books. I work for a library and sometimes I can get them from the publishers. I get them at library conferences. I enter tons of giveaways (Goodreads, bookish first and book riot) and then I also do blogger programs. I have a lot from netgalley also and have gotten paper books via netgalley before. The publishers will sometimes offer paper arcs in their approval emails or follow up emails. 7y

When the paper ARC you‘re reading has what looks like a typo (pretty sure this is supposed to be “deeper in DEBT” 🤷🏻‍♀️) and the finished ebook has the same error 🤔 If you have a finished hardcover, I‘d love the know what word your copy has. Last page of chapter 28 (page 272 of the ARC). #theimmortalists

This is a prompt from last week‘s #friyayintro but I somehow missed it. 🤷‍♀️ I‘m also only going to address the last question, which is “Ask your own question!” so I‘m kind of the worst.🙈

My question is: Do you have a great idea for a bookish-something that you wish you could get off the ground (readathon, swap, etc)? What is it?

I‘d love to do a weekend readathon where everyone rereads their childhood favorites! I‘d also be into a sock swap.

Clwojick I will definitely be hosting a #bujosupplyswap and a #coffeeandteaswap in the new year. Would also love to do a bookish tee swap. 💗 I love the childhood favourite idea!!! I would join! 7y

Yesterday I had to tell my dentist there was a typo in their marketing materials.

Lwiesman Oops!! What did he say? Did he notice? I think I would be a little upset with the marketing company! (edited) 7y
Suet624 One woman said "it wasn't me - I don't know how to spell the word". The hygienist was aghast at both the comment and the typo. @Lwiesman (edited) 7y
LauraBeth Whoops! It happens. 😂 7y

Suet624 @LauraBeth I find typos everywhere and am so surprised when I am the first person to comment on them. I had to tell Blue Cross that they had a typo in their standard claim form. 😳 7y
Laura317 Well, they know about the Oxford comma. So that's somewhat telling. 7y
Suet624 @Laura317 great point. 😁 7y
saresmoore I suppose that's an easy spelling error (even if it's glaring), but I have no forgiveness for the font choices and the unnecessary capitalization! 😣 7y
Suet624 @saresmoore yes, you're absolutely right. 7y
Leftcoastzen So frustrating! A medical information sheet from my doctors office , "ect" instead of etc. 7y
Suet624 A School principal told me that 70% of the resumes and cover letters he receives have misspellings in them. @Leftcoastzen (edited) 7y

A friend introduced me to Yuri On Ice on Easter. I've now watched it twice and am figuring out how to squeeze in a third viewing. The depiction of anxiety in one of the characters really hit home for me. It's also really gorgeous and romantic (they have a ice skating choreographer). I almost want to start watching figure skating again. I'm now 2 books behind on my annual reading goal AND I still haven't completed this month's book club book. Oops.

Well, @KilgoreTrout , it seems the mystery of my missing #cupidgoespostal package has come to a frightful end. The only thing that made it was the valentine from your niece -- which I'm super glad wasn't lost -- and your note! 😂
I hung the Valentine on my fridge. Thank you!! 💜

Eyelit Wow! 😳 8y
Cinfhen 😱 8y
Lizpixie How does something like this happen?? 8y
KilgoreTrout Oh nooooo! I was wondering why I never saw anything posted on here about it, but just figured you were busy! I'm so sorry!!! What a nightmare! The books are missing?! UGH!! 8y
ChasingOm @KilgoreTrout I thought they'd just been lost because we'd been moving, but apparently the package was destroyed in the mail. 😢 But the two pieces of paper survived! 8y

Argh! I totally forgot to take a picture of my #cupidgoespostal package. But it's in the mail and should be there on Monday, just in time. Sorry to cut it so close, @Nomad_Student - moving made everything topsy-turvey. And, honestly,I am a master procrastinator. But at least you haven't had to spend WEEKS resisting temptation, so silver lining? @BookishMarginalia

BookishMarginalia 👍🏼 8y
Nomad_Student Aww, thanks @quietjenn, I'm so excited!! 😃And no worries, moving throws everything out of whack. Not having had to resist the temptation to peek is definitely a plus! 😉 8y
quietjenn @Nomad_Student I'm glad you understand how these things go. And I *really* hope you like things when you get them! 8y
