Weekly Wrap up 9.3.16



Favorites 

Pumpkin Spice Latte- I'm ready for Halloween now... lol. The PSL is back and it is really delicious! I'm working on my 4th one as we speak. I've had one iced and the rest hot... even though its been pretty hot out this week. I'm just a fan. I'm excited to try the Mexican Hot Chocolate-type drink!

Stuart the Minion- I love the Build a Bear minions, and as you might know, I built another one last week and he's just as cute and cuddly as the others! Yes... I cuddle minions when I go to bed... It's been more comfortable to me lately and comforting... and I'm happy to have Stuart now too. I know... its a silly thing for a grown woman to have as a favorite... but you know I love minions and cartoons... so I love him!


Life Scribbles
-Monday I didn't do too much but I was in a pretty good mood. I had a good starbucks. Good dinner, my cousin got Prailenes from New Orleans and I had one of those... just one of those it shouldn't have been a good day but everyone seemed to be in a good mood and I was in a good mood... so it was good. Maybe I just had a good weekend and that's what I needed to recharge or whatever... I dunno! Not gonna question it too much. 
-Tuesday I had tacos and they were delicious
- Wednesday I didn't feel that good... slightly unrelated to tacos... but I felt better later and made nachos and I was ok.
-Thursday I went to the Alex and Ani store and had my first and second PSL of the season.
-Friday I went out to dinner with my family and friends and that was good.
- Saturday I didn't feel well and stayed in bed most of the day and watched The Office and The Incredibles... Which I will have a Throwback Thursday on in the kind of distant future.

TV Highlights 
I caught up on American Gothic! Which I really like how its going. I think it is a good show... and although I stick to my initial review saying the writing wasn't great and some of the costume choices are just odd... I really enjoy it!

Noteworthy Snacks 
PSL

Nachos

Pumpkin Spice Keebler Stripes cookies

Pumpkin Spice Cheerios...

News and World Events 
Anthony Weiner is involved in another "sexting" scandal and his wife is now separating from him because of it. Don't blame her, Weiner seems like an extremely self destructive crazy person... who is probably not a bad politician... but he's so self involved that he'll never have any position in office. And that's kind of a tragedy. I really don't know much about his politics... so maybe he was bad anyway... but still. Good or bad... sad situation. I really want to see that documentary about him it sounds really interesting. 

Also I reread that and didn't have sexting in quotes and I was like "okay... this looks ridiculous. I'm just going to put that in quotes." 

Gene Wilder passed away this week at the age of 83. Wilder is known for Willy Wonka, Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein and he will be missed dearly by his beloved fans. 

The Comedy Central roast of Rob Lowe was filmed this week and for some reason Anne Coulter, Jewel and Peyton Manning were all there... and none of them like Anne Coulter... so that should be interesting I guess... I'm weird with Roasts. I don't always get roasts because a lot of times they're very uncomfortable and usually they have people that aren't comedians doing comedy... so I don't want to say I dislike them at all... I love Jeff Ross and I thought the James Franco Roast was one of my favorite Comedy Central Specials... but it isn't always my thing I guess.

There have been clown sightings in South Carolina that are scary. Usually these are hoaxes... but according to some headlines they are going after kids... so be especially careful with your children if you live in South Carolina. Or just in general... there are too many dangers in the world.

Amy Schumer was heckled on stage by a man that wanted her to take her clothes off... and she shut him down. She roasted him onstage... I'm guessing she said to show the audience his thing and she gave him one chance to sit down and enjoy the show before throwing him out... and she threw him out. I've seen Amy Schumer live before... and she wasn't quite heckled but people were shouting things at her and it had nothing to do with her set. Some woman was waving and yelling "Jennifer Lawrence" and "Madonna"... and its like really? If you are in the audience... you aren't a part of the act. If its not something the comedian had planned... they're not really going to talk about it. If they ask "Hey what should I talk about now" then you can shout stuff... that doesn't happen often at professional comedy shows though... so just sit down, shut up and enjoy the show. Comedy Shows are expensive and no one is paying to see a sales man in the audience. Leave it to the professionals... you can go be Michael Scott in your own office!


Thoughts 
I'm ready for Halloween! I'm not in a rush... but I'm ready.

Clickables 

Walt Disney World Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular - As I said... I'm ready for Halloween and I love Disney... so My Clickables will have a lot of links from The Dis because I thought they did a really good coverage of it. 

Mickey's Boo-To-You Halloween Parade - I haven't actually watched this yet... but that's what I'm going to watch next. 

Happy Hallowishes - The Disney World Fireworks for halloween look amazing! 

... There were a lot of videos I really liked this week. Maybe I'll do a whole thing just for videos I liked this week.

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
