Sunday Watchalong: 11am Chicago time! Bigil! Naked Jackie, Atlee Movie, Double Role!
The people have spoken, and the people have said “I’m a little curious about naked Jackie”. So, we are watching Bigil! Starting at 11am Chicago time on Sunday.
Continue readingWednesday Watching Post 1 Day Late: What Are You Reading and Watching and Thinking and Listening to on Dimple’s Birthday?
Happy Thursday! I skipped yesterday because it was my birthday (woot!) and instead I was driving around getting my free birthday things and opening presents and fun stuff like that. But today, I’m back! A year older! Ugh, I’m 37 now and I don’t like the number “37”. I really liked the number “36”, but “37” feels spikey and awkward.
Continue readingSunday (or Saturday or Friday) WatchAlong: Atlee! For SRK’s New Movie! Mersal or Bigil?
SRK’s new movie will be directed by Atlee, a Tamil director who does great complicated fun action movies. I’ve seen three of his, and the two most recent are easily available and SUPER fun and both have Rahman scores. So we just need to choose between those two for our Sunday watch! And also decide what day to do the watch this week, for once my weekend is pretty open.
Continue readingThinky/Discussion Post: Ghosts/Spirits, What Is Your Personal Feeling About It?
Nothing particularly inspired this post, beyond my parents and I having a conversation last night about if/when we feel the spirits of our shared dead relatives. As I’ve mentioned before, the lake house I go to in the summer has been in our family for almost 100 years, and it’s also where I spent the most time with my beloved Grandmother and Grandfather as a child (and where my father spent the most time with HIS grandparents when HE was a child), so we are surrounded by ghosts of various kinds of here.
Continue readingMonday Morning Questions Post: What Do You Want to Ask Me on Vijay Raaz’s Birthday???
Happy Monday! Well, happy for you, not me. Not unhappy for me, just exhausted. Between the yards of the house-house, and the summer opening of the lake house, I worked flat out in a variety of ways all of last week (just some random examples, last Sunday I hung curtain rods, this Thursday I carried a large dollhouse down from the attic, and on Saturday I dropped a paving stone on my finger). My eyes hurt, my back hurts, and I don’t want to move. I think next weekend I will officially give myself time off and not do ANYTHING.

I just had the loveliest morning finishing this book. I put it off partly because I was super busy this week (this was Week of Getting Yards Ready for Spring), but also because I remembered it being kind of dull. Not at all! So many fun little stories in there once the book really gets going.
Continue readingDCIB Book Club Bonus: The Life of LM Montgomery’s Life
As we crawl through the Anne series, I increasingly find myself wanting to reference back to things in Montgomery’s real life. Which seems unfair since I haven’t laid out basic information yet for everyone to share. So here it is! The post where I do that!
Continue readingSHAHRUKH ALERT!!! New Teaser!!! Atlee Movie!!!!
Another Shahrukh teaser!!!! So this is 3 movies that are finally being officially announced (Pathan, Dunki, now Jawan). 2023 could be another 2016 with a new SRK movie every few months, woot!!!
Continue readingSilly Sunday on Thursday: True Crime Femme Fatale Romance for SRK, and Recasting Anne of the Island!!!!
I am sitting in a laundromat waiting for my clothes to be done, perfect time to let my imagination take flight and not really think about much of anything. Oh, and by the way, no watchalong this week, my schedule is just too crazy (my friends invited their friend who is a professional landscaper to come fix our back yard, so we are working flat out for the 3 days he is in town)
Continue readingWednesday Watching: What Are You Reading and Watching and Thinking and Listening to the First Week of June???
Happy Wednesday!!! Today I get to take a break in the middle of work and drive up to Wisconsin. Because driving at rush hour is for the birds. I would have gone late late last night, but I forgot I had to catsit this morning. Cats are now fed, and I am ready to go once the traffic calms down!
