Happy Monday! I had a wild weekend (thus missed Saturday Small Talk), and now I am at work, and running my dishwasher a million times (part of the wild weekend was doing a lot of cooking and using every dish).
Continue readingThis is SUCH a good episode! At least, I think so. I hope I encouraged some of you to watch it, and I hope you got a lot out of it.
Continue readingGood Morning! I am ready! I got my google chrome toggle working, my coffee is percelating, the dog got to go in the backyard, life is good! Let’s do this! Margaret watching a movie for the first time on a watchalong!!!!
Continue readingHappy November! The DCIB Christmas GiveAway has started, of course, because DCIB Christmas starts as soon as SRK Day is over. But what about the other signs of Christmas? My new shared household is having a debate related to “when does Margaret get to put up decorations all over the yard”. This is following my dawn raid the day after Halloween which removed all Halloween decorations and replaced them with a Christmas tree. The Christmas tree is allowed, but Halloween is still up also, and we are debating as to when I get to put up all my other stuff and finally hide Halloween in the basement where it belongs.
Continue readingThis is scary! Watching a new-to-me movie for the first time on a watchalong. What if I don’t like it? Or, what if I like it so much that I forget to comment?
Continue readingBeing a veteran is such a complicated thing. And being a veteran of a war fought on behalf of the colonial forces over your country adds a whole other layer of complication to it. How do we deal with that? “We” meaning those people who owe a debt to the folks who served?
Continue readingHAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Yes, you get to pick the movie this week. But also, you get a birthday post!
Continue readingWelp, not a great movie! I can describe the plot in about 3 sentences, no twists or surprises, and just not the best way to bring up the questions it wants to bring up. But I want to bring up those questions! So this is a review/discussion post.
Continue readingIt’s 25 minutes of your life! It won’t kill you! And you need to know nothing about the background of the show to enjoy this particular episode and also get something from it.
Continue readingHappy Wednesday!!!! I woke up EARLY today! It was GREAT! I went on a little driving adventure to drop off an SRK Birthday gift at a friend’s house before work and felt all awake and happy instead of depressed and sleepy.
Continue readingThe follow up to the mean post! What celebrities do we just like, for no reason related to their careers?
Continue readingWell, this was a cute harmless movie with a few good moments, but ultimately kind of a mess. It’s one thing to be Masala, it’s another thing to just be tonally mushy.
Continue readingNormally letting people have the birthday pick on their birthday week is a lovely last minute surprise. In this case, apparently FilmiKudhi has been counting on it and planning for it for weeks! So I expect her to have her choices locked and loaded.
Continue readingI was soooooooooooo happy yesterday to discover that everyone else also had that creepy bad-liberal vibe from Kamal Haasan. And now I am curious about what other celebrities have given us a similar icky feeling just from interviews and things, not politics or police cases or performances.
Continue readingI am so HAPPY! I got to wake up in SUNSHINE!!! And I woke up with enough time to walk the dog and make coffee and get dressed before work! It is the loveliest happiest day EVER!
Continue readingYes, we are DOING the GiveAway!!!! Because it is November, by golly. We do Shahrukh month, then we do Christmas GiveAway, then we do Annual Awards, and then we do Valentines Day. And thus we all survive Seasonal Affective Disorder.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! By the time we finished K3G, half the day was over!!! So then I took a nap, and then my parents came over and helped me hang pictures. And then they left, and now I am writing this!
Continue readingHappy Saturday!!! And very VERY happy last-day-before-daylight-savings. I am sick of this! Very ready for an extra hour of sleep and the sun to be up when I walk the dog in the morning.
Continue readingI survived the dentist! And then, even more important, I survived a trip to Ikea with my friend which took alllllllll afternoon. And now I am home and cozy and warm and ready to do a fun TGIF post.
Continue readingUgh, Dentist! I successfully had no teeth problems for 8 years by the simple method of not going to the dentist. And then my friend guilted me into it, and all of a sudden I have to have a Deep Cleaning and get a new filling. Dentists! The source of all teeth problems!
Continue readingIt’s Diwali!!!! And I am going to celebrate this year with my favorite Diwali songs and a discussion of the philosophy behind them!
Continue readingGet ready to slog your way through K3G again!!!!! Fun possible discussion point as the movie flows over us, how would each of the other characters arrange the murder of Amitabh and how would they get away with it? Obviously, Hrithik would challenge him to a dance off and make his heart explode.
Continue readingYES! This is a GOOD day! Even if my co-worker is sick so I have to do twice as much work, and also I overslept, and also Grandpa is still dying. TABU DAY! GOOD DAY!!!
Continue readingI’m gonna be SELFISH. We are doing Saturday morning, and we are doing something happy and SRK-y even though SRK month is over. And we are trying for something Diwali-y too.
Continue readingI thought I should bring some uplifting blank verse to our community. Great art reflects the human existance
