I have things to do that are more important than SRK, so much more important that my brain doesn’t even have space for him. It’s not that he has become less important to me, it’s that for the first time in 20 years there is something going on that is so much more important I honestly forgot.
Continue readingHello! I have nothing to report that is Indian film related, I’ve been taking a sabbatical from all that. But I can give y’all a life update! Niki just commented and I was so happy to hear from her, it made me hope I could hear from more of you. And think that I should let you hear from me!
Continue readingAfter rescheduling multiple times, I finally watched it! Because it looked fun and harmless and why not? And it was, indeed, fun and harmless.
Continue readingAnd it went well! I think? What do you think?
Continue readingYou get to help me with my new job! Give me music that will make me productive.
Continue readingOn Saturday! At a Holi event! I also got covered in Holi colors by a nice group that adopted me and my friend.
Continue readingHappy Monday! Today was the first day at my NEW JOB! Now I am decompressing after getting home and walking Albie Dog and I thought “Hey, I want to talk to my blog friends! And also, Hulu just added the original seasons of Law and Order and I want to talk about THAT.”
Continue readingOkay, I’m taking a leap into NOT my area of specialty, so forgive any mistakes I make in descriptions and correct me! But I find these two stories really interesting.
Continue readingNaina emailed this to me, and I don’t fully understand it, but also don’t want to research it (because of my busy schedule drinking coffee, playing solitaire, and going for long walks in the sunshine). So I shall put up a post and you will explain it to me!
Continue readingFilmiKudhi texted me this morning to let me know, and I knew I had to put up a post about it, this is just too big not to talk about.
Continue readingWell, this is a gutpunch of a week. First I want to say that I love you, all of you, even the ones who only read and don’t comment. And second I want to say that this is not The End. Picture Abhi Baki Hai Mere Dost.
Continue readingHAPPY SHAHRUKH DAY! I have to either buy or make a cake and, hopefully, friends will be coming over to eat it tonight! Saturday’s are tricky, especially since a lot of my friends are performers.
Continue readingWhat a strange day! For one thing, it’s over 80 degrees in Chicago, but just today and tomorrow. I hate those random funky weather days, it makes everything feel just slightly off, like minor notes in music. For another. my plans for today changed last minute about 3 times and I HATE when plans change last minute. So now I am trying to be all caaaaaaaaaalm and fooooooooooooocused and do something nice with SRK.
Continue readingUgh! I really want to watch an SRK movie with y’all! But I’ve got pumpkin patch tomorrow, a spooky seance show tonight, and I have to squeeze in a sewing project somewhere. I’m sorry! I’ll make it up to y’all!!!
Not sure where we landed on who can and can’t make it at this time, but it works well for me so I’m gonna be selfish!
Continue readingEvery SRK Month I get a few embarrassed comments from folks saying “I truly just don’t get it, I’m sorry!” If that is you, or if you have such people among your friends and family, this post is for you!
Continue readingYES! I’ve been slacking on celebrating this magical season (doing stupid stuff like walking in the forest and applying for jobs instead, booo!), so we haven’t had a single SRK Month WatchAlong yet!
Continue readingThis is very very less minute, less than 24 hours notice! But hoping to still grab some people.
Continue readingPoor SRK, ignored in his birthday month just because I’m going through massive life changes. I hope hope hope that at least some of you are available sometime this weekend for a Zoom Discussion in his honor. Of a movie I am SURE none of us need to rewatch.
Continue readingI am currently seeing the world through the lens of “would I be able to get that job?” So this has brought in a whole new aspect to SRK films for me!
Continue readingOh my gosh, weddings are exhausting! There was the run up week, and then the following week with the clearing up and organizing and still hosting international visitors. But now, FINALLY, things are sort of back to normal and I can switch to focusing on SRK Month.
Continue readingThe grand finale of Wedding Week! I’ve driven miles and miles on errands, I’ve met and re-met many many out of town friends, and I’ve rethought my own outfit multiple times. And now the day is here! The final stretch!
Continue readingMy Housemates’ wedding is 5 days! Tomorrow the first international house guest arrives, another one on Wednesday, and two more on Thursday. Yesterday one of the brides went to her last dress fitting with her Mom, while I drove the other bride around to get those vital last minute wedding needs: 42 bottles of Prosecco, gold spray paint, duct tape, and lightbulbs. My parents came over for dinner last night and went home with two huge boxes of table linens and orders to deliver them to the venue 2 hours in advance on the day (the 42 bottles of prosecco kill a lot of our car space). It has taken over our life to the point that when we were shopping yesterday and the store was extra crowded, I thought “of course, everyone has to do extra shopping in honor of the national holiday of Wedding Week”.
Continue readingHappy Wednesday!!! Week 2 of unemployment for me! Luckily, my housemates’ wedding is next week, so they are keeping me busy (they got married legally in January 2020, and have been waiting 4 years to have their big blow out wedding reception). Today, I get to go pick up 200 candles, and on Saturday I take delivery of a deep freeze (no leftovers will go to waste! Not at these prices).
Continue readingHappy Monday! I have now organized my apartment from the front wall to about 20 feet back, including the living room, front hall, and front closet!. Next step, my bedroom and the guest room! Just gonna keep moving backwards until I’ve covered the whole space.
