Woo-hoo! Friday WatchAlong!!! Grandpa’s family funeral weekend, and yet I am maintaining normalcy! Also, I’m pumped to watch this movie with y’all.
Continue readingThis is one of those things that isn’t quite a pun, or even funny, and takes longer to explain than to see. And yet, it amuses me!
Continue readingWoot, Advent 2!!!! On December 2, so on time! Let’s see what I can come up with.
Continue readingI’m doin’ it! I’m adding a new thing to my December to-do list! Because responsibility is FUN! At least, responsibility for my DCIB folks who I love. Yes, I am doing an Advent themed post EVERY DAY.
Continue readingIt’s DECEMBER! Which means ADVENT CALENDARS!!!! And also, family competition.
Continue readingThank goodness, the people decided for me so I didn’t have to decide what to watch or when to watch it. And it’s a nice movie for us to hate on! Let’s talk Vows, and Promises, and True Love, and all those things that ABSOLUTELY TOTALLY EXIST. And also, how believable/unbelievable SRK is as a 25 year old.
Continue readingOkay, now that I have a couch, I am feeling barely capable of writing a post on a TRAILER. It’s not even an actual film! How is it this hard for me????
Continue readingI got my couch!!!! FINALLY! Such joy, such beauty!!! And now I can sleep in the living room with all the Christmas lights on around me. Take THAT, grief and Seasonal Affective Disorder!!!!
Continue readingHappy first day of Advent! I already gave Albie Dog his Advent treat (video to follow), but I am saving mine until after coffee. And my nephew sent me a wonderful Advent greeting of him saying “Happy Birthday Jesus”. He’s big on birthdays right now.
Continue readingHappy Tuesday! I saw Om Shanti Om IN THEATERS last night! It was the weirdest thing, this very esoteric and pretentious film group in Chicago randomly has a reel of it and they showed it in the most esoteric and pretentious way. But whatever, me and my friends hooted and danced along as you are supposed to. And today, I am sleepy.
Continue readingI was gonna write a post actually about Indian film, you know, the thing this blog is supposed to be about. But instead I got thinking about this post and once again FAILED.
Continue readingHappy Monday! Last night I got to help pick out Grandpa’s funeral clothes. Did you know he has to wear pants? Doesn’t that seem kind of silly? In fact, doesn’t all of it seem kind of silly when you think about it? Anyway, today is Monday! No funeral stuff until Thursday! WOO-HOO!!!! And on Wednesday I am supposed to get my much much MUCH delayed couch!
Continue readingYaaaaaaaaaaaaay, the first non watchalong winner! See, there is hope for everyone. Eva commented a whole 14 times this week (so, an average of twice a day). And even with that little bit, she wins!
Continue readingHappy Saturday! We got through family Thanksgiving, and then second Thanksgiving, and now all I have to do is go get a massage (scheduled a month ago, because I am smart) and then have a friend over to help put up my tree and eat leftover pie. SO MUCH PIE.
Continue readingYaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, White Christmas! I’m gonna be sitting here eating left over mashed potatoes like someone who lives RIGHT.
Continue readingWell, sigh. A bit of a rough start today. But nothing I can’t handle! But also, sigh. I wonder if my car insurance office is open the day after Thanksgiving?
Continue readingWell, now I am worried no one else will show up! Oh well, Kirre and I can always have fun together and everyone else can read the comments later.
Continue readingHappy Thanksgiving! In about an hour, I am going to leave to pick up dinner and then go to my parents for the day. But right now I am going to take a moment and talk about how thankful I am for DCIB.
Continue readingThree very different men! All of whom have birthdays in the same one week period! And all of whom kind of hit a different taste level as movie stars. Let’s set them against each other!
Continue readingHappy Tuesday! And it’s MY week to pick a movie! Because my Grandpa died. So I am using my sympathy vote and forcing y’all to watch a sappy holiday movie. Because I looooooooooooooove sappy holiday movies.
Continue readingThe worst thing about a slow death is that it steals from you memories of who the person was before they started dying. So I am going to write a post that remembers the whole Grandpa, not just who he was these last few weeks
Continue readingHappy Monday!!! Saw Grandpa yesterday, his teeth look big. Which I remember as a Death thing. That’s fun. And today I have my annual Lady Doctor appointment, which is NOT fun. Being a woman is uncomfortable sometimes. And thus ends Margaret’s Oversharing Section
Continue readingI was already thinking about this as a fanfic and then I realized it was Helen’s birthday! So it’s EVEN MORE perfect!!!
Continue readingAnother WatchAlong winner! I’m telling you, it is KEY. But also, I never have more than 5 people on a watchalong, and we’ve got like 9 weeks, so you can still win.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! I am fighting my feelings of stress and sadness and so on with LOTS OF CHRISTMAS. Our whole household is going to a Christmas tree farm this afternoon, this morning I am going to put up lights in front of the house, and I have a stupid holiday TV movie going while I do a Christmas puzzle right now. CHRISTMAS! Jesus was born to make me happy!
