Stuff that REALLY happened this week! (3/30-4/6)

I hope you all liked yesterday's post and appreciate me trying to do a late April Fool's prank... now on with the real news of the week!

1) JK Rowling to make Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them a Trilogy- Is anyone else peeing their pants with excitement over this news? No, just me... well alright then... April fools again... maybe... I didn't actually pee my pants but metaphorically... You know what I'm just damn excited for this and you should be too! This is a spinoff of the Harry Potter movies based off of a spinoff book that Harry, Ron and Hermione had to read for class. We knew that they were going to make one movie... and I think I even said back in the day that there would probably be sequels to this movie and everyone thought that just having one movie was good news enough... but yeah 3 >1. And it's being written by JK and... ugh. I'm excited you may notice.

2) April Fools Pranks all around!- Drew Carey and Craig Ferguson switched places, American Eagle is saying it's designing clothes for dogs called American Beagle Outfitters (which is to support the ASPCA) Google maps designed some sort of Pokemon game, google chrome did something to I believe. I posted a fake blog about fake news stories that didn't happen at all. The world is a funny place for the week.

3) Miley Cyrus loses her dog- this is sad to me. When I say loses I don't mean like "missing dog" I mean that the dog passed away. I recently lost my dog Lucky and I still miss him every day. I wish that Spencer had gotten a chance to meet his big brother, I think that Spencer would love him too.

4) Michael Strahan offered GMA job- this was news that we clearly weren't supposed to hear about yet. I think they're trying to get someone to replace Josh Elliot and Sam Champion. I think he maybe wanted to leave Kelly and Michael first. He's saying it would be part time and that he could do both. I don't really wake up early enough to watch either show, but meh still interesting.


5) Always Sunny in Philadelphia gets picked up for 2 more seasons- this is exciting news! I love Always Sunny and I think it's really cool that it's super-renewed! I mean it's not the best, it's a little hit and miss sometimes but the hit episodes are some of the funniest things on tv!

6)John Hamm was on a dating game show years ago and got REJECTED!- Apparently John Hamm used to be super cheesy and not nearly as attractive as he is now. There was an embarrassing video that just surfaced. The woman that didn't pick him doesn't regret her decision, hasn't seen Mad Men and is married. It's just kind of funny that even someone as beautiful as Jon Hamm got rejected. Also I just saw the video of  Aaron Paul on The Price is right, so I think that's kind of funny.

7) James Franco tries to Insta-hook up with 17 year old fan- James publicly admitted that he did in fact start flirting with a 17 year old girl from Scotland via Instagram. And while he did invite her to
his hotel room...he got caught and admitted it was a bad idea. I find this slightly creepy and he is still my biggest celeb crush... It's kind of brave that he admitted it. I also think it may have been a weird marketing ploy for his movie in which he plays a man interested in young girls... Or it may be to cover up that he is common law married to a Japanese Body pillow... We may never know.

8) Goomies 2 is apparently a thing- why are so many 80s movies sequels coming out. They recently announced Beetlejuice 2 and now this? Idk I didn't really love the original Goonies from what I saw (sorry!) so I'm not all that excited.

9)Bryan Cranston announces he will be writing a memoir- you can probably guess I'm super excited about this. I'm a huge breaking bad fan, the memoir is apparently mostly about his years on Breaking Bad and it's just going to be freaking cool! Soooo excite!!!


10) Hbo 2 showed Game of Thrones all weekend- I love GoT but I'm not as obsessed with it as others and I haven't seen it since Season 1. Either way pretty damn cool that it was on all weekend. I'm guessing it will still be on now if you're just reading this and you didn't know about it... Not quite sure. And of corse season 4 begins tonight and there will be even more character deaths now than ever probably. They kill a lot of people off all the time I mean damn! Also Silicone Valley starts tonight which I'm pumped for! Maybe I'll have a review later in the week!

Byeeeeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
