Happy 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!
Continue readingYaaaaaaaaaaaay! Friday WatchAlong! I did work all morning, ran an errand, then came home and had a nap, and now I am all settled in for this movie! And I will NOT fall asleep (as I tend to do when we have Friday afternoon watchalongs).
Continue readingOkay, two good movies and one bad, that’s a fair trade off. I can live with that.
Continue readingWoot! Preity, Rani, Salman, crazy plot, fun songs, SWITZERLAND! It’s all the 90s/early 2000s happiness at once.
Continue readingWe have to, right? And it is the cheerful light silly and yet easy to find on streaming services movie I was looking for!
Continue readingPeople Magazine is just so smart. Their “Sexiest Man Alive” issue concept is brilliant, and releasing it right before SUPER STRESSFUL Thanksgiving is extra brilliant. Anyway, I am borrowing their idea 🙂
Continue readingHappy (?) Wednesday! My Grandpa is hitting a long low slow really bad patch in his dying process, and it’s overcast and yucky, and my allergies are exploding. EVERYTHING IS HORRIBLE!!! Thank goodness I am buying a Christmas tree this Saturday.
Continue readingHelp! I need something soothing and sunny and happy this Friday! What should it be???
Continue readingNo real reason, busy at work, hormonal, can’t seem to get enough sleep. Let’s look at dog sweaters together!
Continue readingYaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, week 2!!! And we are fully into November now, so it feels a little less silly. Also, sorry this is a day late, I went OUT on Saturday night. Into THE WORLD. And then I was sleepy on Sunday.
