Get 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.

I went store bought this year, I think I did last year too? Pandemic birthday parties are hard to get myself to cook for.
Continue readingHAPPY SHAHRUKH DAY!!!! How Are You Celebrating?
Happy Shahrukh Day! I am celebrating by working super hard to make up for being off yesterday/distract myself from Grandpa. And also distract myself from having to do a virtual party AGAIN!!!! I was gonna go in person this year, and then at the last minute I just couldn’t ethically do it. Too many friends with kids/elderly parents. Stupid kids and the elderly. Ruining my fun.
Continue readingHAPPY SHAHRUKH DAY!!!!!!!

Happy Monday! Or rather, exhausting Monday! I had a wonderful Halloween, sitting on the porch for 4 hours and acquiring a total of 28 trick or treaters! Well worth it. And then today was a lot of family stuff ending with a drive to the airport which is always a wee bit stressful. I am looking forward to going back to work-work tomorrow and relaxing.

I am continuing my podcast binging. So soothing! So fascinating! All these crazy unexpected people with crazy friends and relatives who hire hitmen and stuff. And that got me thinking, what would be the most fascinating Shahrukh character/setting for one of these nutty “a seemingly perfect family in a perfect town, but then MURDER” stories?
Continue readingLittle Things Review/Spoilers: Final Episodes!!!! 7 and 8, Ends With a Whimper, Which is the Point
Ha! This whole thing turned out to be the same lesson my parents always told me, “you have to live together before you get married”. It’s TRUE!!!! You get through all the horrible messy angry stuff before you make that lifelong commitment and then you know you really want that lifelong commitment.
Continue readingDCIB Book/Movie Club Reminder: Meet Me in St. Louis! Discussion This Sunday! Available on HBOMax, and For Rent
This is a selfish pick. I just love love love this movie. And it has a nice big Halloween section, so that’s fun. On the less selfish side, I think I can guarantee, this is a movie everyone on DCIB will enjoy. Great songs, amazing costumes, lots of family romance plot, just a total joy. Watch it with your family! Or remember when you saw it previously with your family! And come ready to discuss why Judy Garland is, or is not, the best character in the film.
