Shannon's Sick Day Essentials.

Heyyy guys. I'm sick right now... not sure when I'm going to be posting this, but as of right now I have a fever, sore throat and I can't stop sniffling and sneezing... so here are some of my "sick day essentials."

First off I like to have warm pajamas, cooler pajamas and blankets and robes like everywhere. This helps me a lot because I've been getting super cold at some points and then I've been overheating and its just been good to have an easy change of pajamas to fix that. Ain't nobody got time for jeans or real clothes, so the pajama switch is ideal.

Next you're going to need a puppy or a cat or some sort of animal. This is optional but seriously puppies are twice as adorable and funny when you can barely think. Everything my dog Spencer has been doing today is absolutely adorable.

I also recommend cold drinks if you have a sore throat. I like Milkshakes, there is this place called Cheeburger Cheeburger that has the most delicious milkshakes on the planet and the widest variety of flavor combos and all of that good stuff. I had a s'mores milkshake on friday and my parents got me a chocolate cherry amaretto one today... so damn good. I don't know how many of these there are, so if all else fails, caramel fraps and dairy queen blizzards are good too. Or Frosty's. All so good.

I also recommend having a parent, guardian, significant other or someone to take care of you. If I were at school right now I'd probably have to go all the way to McDonalds by myself to get a milkshake and food, but thankfully they are amazing and got my milkshake for me.

Another thing is a good dumb tv show or movie. I love Breaking Bad and would probably like watching it on a sick day... but at the same time I think watching something like Trophy Wife is wayyy better. I watched some of that before and some youtube videos, and I may watch the new Skalar Brothers standup special on Netflix, or Bob's Burger's or Benchwarmers. This is not a time to watch Citizen Kane or The English Patient. This is a time to watch something stupid and funny or something on TLC. Despicable Me or any cartoon in general is great to watch on a sick day.

I also like listening to podcasts. I had a washcloth over my forehead before and was listening to Skalarbro County until falling asleep. It was really relaxing. They were talking about some sort of Packers fan website where they think people will end up being catfished... it was interesting.

Normally I'd say read a book, but my eyes have barely been open today. I'm reading Orange is The New Black right now though.

Ohhh and tissues and medicine and water and soup never hurt either. And some moisturizer for under the nose.

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
