Wednesday Watching Post: What Are You Reading and Watching and Thinking and Listening To As I Go Out of Town?
Happy Wednesday! I am doing a week at the family lake house. Which is nice on it’s own, but is particularly nice right now because I am SURROUNDED BY BOXES. And the lake house has nice solid furniture and things that have been immovably in place for the past 100 years.
Continue readingHappy National Black Cats Day! SRK and Matching Cats!
This is gonna be a fun post! At least, fun for me to put together. And fun for y’all if you like cats and/or SRK.
Continue readingCOURTNEY! What Movie Do You Want for Your Birthday and When?
Not gonna forget! Courtney, it is your pick this week, both day/time and film. A late birthday present. And yes, you can choose “Spin” on Disney if you want. Or Shershah. It’s your birthday!
Continue readingThinky Post: Why So Many ABCD Teenage Female Stories in American Popular Culture All of a Sudden?
Another thinky post! I’m spoiling y’all! Someday I may actually review a movie again and it will be too much joy to handle.
Continue readingMonday Morning Questions: What Do You Want to Ask Me the Day After Independence Day?
Happy Monday! I should be finishing building a linen cabinet and/or taking out trash and/or emptying and rearranging boxes. But I’m not! Instead I am sitting here peacefully writing the Monday Morning post like usual, because I gotta get back to real life.
Continue readingHappy Birthday India! Let’s CELEBRATE!!!
Oh my goodness, such an important birthday! Almost as important as Courtney’s birthday last weekend! Let’s celebrate with songs!
Continue readingSilly Sunday: 3 Ideas for the Alia-Kat-PC Movie! Amar Akbar Anthony Remake and Others
I’m gonna get back on a SCHEDULE!!! Through out the pandemic, keeping to a blog schedule has kept me sane. Throwing it out the window during moving week was NOT HEALTHY. So I’m gonna make an effort and do the posts that are supposed to go up on the days they are supposed to go up. With that in mind, Silly Sunday!
Continue readingSaturday Small Talk: Chat Away While I Organize a Kitchen!
Well, I’ve had a very productive day! Did the watchalong, did laundry, organized my bedroom, got my haircut, started the process of organizing my kitchen, and then remembered I forgot to do the small talk post. Which brings us to here and now.
Continue readingSaturday Morning Watchalong: Mom! For Sridevi! 7:30am Chicago Time on Netflix
Woo-hoo! I am beginning to feel like I am getting back to regular life! Watchalong, I made my own coffee, I’ve started laundry, life is good.
Continue readingWatchAlong Tomorrow Morning! Mom, With Sridevi, at 7:30am Chicago Time!
I know I know, super last minute. And this was supposed to be Courtney’s week too (sorry Courtney!). But life kind of got on top of me, so instead I am doing this last minute Sridevi pick!
Continue readingAnyone Wanna Watch Mom With Me Tomorrow? For Sridevi?
It’s okay if you don’t. I know it’s a bit of a dark movie (but the vengeance is so satisfying, I don’t care). But it’s Sridevi’s birthday weekend, and I kind of want to rewatch it somehow.
Continue readingSridevi Birthday Post: Who is Your Favorite Female Star and Why?
It is inarguable that Sridevi was the greatest female star India will ever see. Dominating every major industry simultaneously, and making it look easy. But there are other female stars too! Let’s pick our favorites.
Continue reading13 Days of Moving! Home Stretch!
I’m not done-done by any stretch, but after today I should be over the biggest humps. I hope.
Continue readingVivah Review: A Long Sweet Love Story
I have been so blog-lazy this week. I didn’t even remember my daily posts, because I’m not thinking in terms of days of the week, I thinking of “scrap metal day” followed by “painter day” followed by “plumber day” followed by “movers day” and so on. Anyway, I need to give my mind an escape from the complicated logistics of moving, and Vivah is the BEST escape.
Continue readingThinky Post: Fantasy Versus Reality With Toxic Romances
The plumbers coming at 7am tomorrow and I can’t sleep, so I’m gonna distract myself by trying to write a thinky post and see if I can get my thoughts straight.
Continue readingSaturday Small Talk: Chat Away While I Get a Bed Delivered, Yaaaaaay!
Bed, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!! I’ve been going along mostly okay for a month and a half without a bed, but last night it just really got to me. The sofa at the lake house, the floor bed bedroll, they just aren’t the same. I want a REAL bed. And today, I get one! Unless the delivery is delayed! In which case, I cry!
Continue readingSaturday WatchAlong: Watch Gupt/Make Margaret Sit Down in a Cool Room for 2 Hours
I don’t have to do work-work today! Which means I was up at 6am doing housework!!! And now if I don’t sit down for a bit in a cool room I will throw up! But I can’t stop! Thank goodness I scheduled this watch along to force me to be in one place, sitting down, in the only air conditioned room.
Continue readingSaturday Late Morning WatchAlong! GUPT! For Kajol’s BDay!!! At 10:30am Chicago Time
I know, I’m just all over the map. But I’ve got soooooooooo many things I’m juggling right now! Dishwasher was delivered, painter has started, bed is coming tomorrow (knock on wood), and sink is still lost somewhere in the world but I have a plumber scheduled for Tuesday because I am counting on having it by then. Anyway, tomorrow I will get up early, walk Albie Dog, buy cleaning supplies to scrub out the kitchen cupboards really really good because the TRASH PEOPLE left all their stuff behind (broken bread machine, full set up silverware, plastic bags of things I couldn’t identify), and then settle in to watch a nice movie with you.
Continue readingAnyone Up For a Movie This Weekend? Saturday Morning, Sunday Morning, Sunday Afternoon?
Home ownership is HARD y’all!!! I was up at 5am today because it was supposed to rain and I had to bring my yard waste bags into the garage, and then it didn’t rain. What with one thing and another, totally forgot about the watchalong this week. And yet, also really really want a watchalong!
Continue readingBo Derek and John Corbett Got Married, Huh
American news, not Indian, but mostly HUH! And I guess some interesting gender stuff and stardom stuff????

Happy Tuesday! See, I do know what day it is! Yesterday was insanely busy, starting at 6am, and also a bit depressing. You will see why in the following photos. Sigh.
Continue readingSunday WatchAlong: Raabta! Reincarnation and Jim Sarbh! 1pm Chicago Time
Happy Sunday! I already walked the dog, took the bus to the house, bought coffee on the way, walked over, saw my friends’ new couch and got my hairbrush from where I stashed it, took the bus back, walked the dog again, and now I am going to watch a movie with you lovely people. The random extra day of homelessness is just going to FLY by!
Continue readingIt’s My Nephew’s Second Birthday!!!!!!
