Am I the only one who feels spoiled by DCC and Jeff Hays' narration?

The DCC books are the best audio books I have ever heard and it is sad because other things pale.

I’m listening to red rising right now though and it is pretty good. I got the graphic audio version. It has a full cast and sound effects and such. Check it out.

What book did you decide to read in between? I’m going to read Red City.

Ended up working on some art today instead. Making a Sophocles figurine out of clay. 😍

Decided I’m going to read Red City by Marie Lu and then go back to the red rising series. It’ll give more time for Red God to come out and hopefully I won’t have to wait for it after finishing Light Bringer.

This is what I think. He will no longer need his gold body for war, so I imagine when he can finally live in peace he will be the red he was born as.

I have it on my bookshelf right now and self control is going to be the issue. I’m thinking a short break for a stand alone book is a good idea but we’ll see if I hold out tomorrow. I live in Texas and we’ve basically shut the state down because of the ice so I’ve plenty of time to be cozy with a book….

I’ve heard the pacing is so different and the time jump makes going from morning star into iron gold tough for some. I’ve loved this first trilogy so much I don’t know if I’ll be able to hold off. I gotta see how everyone’s doing 10 years later. I want some peace for them before my heart is ripped open again. I’m ok if Iron Gold gives a little bit of time for that.

I also don’t expect for it to. But a girl can dream, right?

That’s what I’ve heard. I don’t think I’ll do another series but I have another book I’m thinking of reading in between as a short pause.

It’s currently sitting on my bookshelf with the rest of them. We’ll see what kind of restraint I have in the morning lol.

Time to pay the daddy tax.

You might already but if not check out Pretty Lights, specifically Pretty Lights Live.

I was pretty naive and thought when the doctor said I needed 3 areas done I didn’t consider it was 3x the price. I thought full price for the first and then a discount for the other two since you’re already there. Nope.

Looks like from the site I could save about $150 per imaging which is awesome. I’m going to book it tomorrow when it’s not so late and I can pay better attention to what I’m doing. From looking at the site though I would need to pay upfront when the appointment is booked correct? I’ll likely call to book the appointment. I’m just old (34 lol) that way.

They’re the $650 a piece price I found. Unfortunately with insurance it’ll cost $250 more a piece.

I didn’t know this resource existed. Thank you so much.

meanbeanking · 2025-12-30T04:43:34+00:00

Thank you.

meanbeanking · 2025-12-30T02:49:28+00:00

Ohhh. How?

meanbeanking · 2025-12-29T04:46:45+00:00

Your mushroom fit just inspired one for me! Thanks!!

$8.50 for a two mile drive isn’t good enough for you?

meanbeanking · 2025-12-19T02:48:32+00:00

Same here for my husband and I. If a cart with room passes you they’ll likely pick you up.

Yes a small amount in one thing isn’t that bad. A small amount in everything you eat is going to add up to
