This is an interesting Weekly Wrap up this week if ever there was one... But yeah... here we go!
Favorites
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert- I think over the next 4 years... I'm probably going to watch just about every late night tv show out there... because if there is a silver lining to the next four years, its comedy. And thats what I want to do. I would love to have a late night show. A lot of people would probably hate me. Lol. But yeah, Colbert has been really great. I've been watching segments on youtube and then on Wednesday I watched it live.
Lin Manuel Miranda- Specifically I've been listening to the Hamilton Soundtrack all week pretty much. Its very relevant in this day and age. I just think Lin Manuel Miranda is brilliant. I'm really excited to see Moana. I've been reading Hamilton: The Revolution and reading his side notes and getting an input on his writing process. Its interesting how he put the musical together. He's brilliant. He's the hope I have for this world.
Leslie Odom, Jr. Simply Christmas- More Hamilton stuff... I love Leslie Odom, Jr. The Room Where It Happens is probably my favorite song in the play. I love his christmas cd too, he has such a great voice. I'm not a big fan of jazz music, so I don't listen to his other cd that much... but I love this cd. Its a little early for Christmas Music yet... but his voice is the best and its just the best Christmas CD. His Ave Maria really brings tears to my eyes.

Life Scribbles
Monday I went out with my mom and we went shopping and I think we ate at TGIF.
Tuesday was Election Day.
Wednesday I went to pick up Candy Corn at a place because I won a guess the Candy Corn Contest. And we went out for dinner.
Thursday I think I went to Starbucks 2 times... which will be a theme with the BOGO free starbucks. Lol.
Friday I went to Sephora at the fancy mall and went out to dinner. And again, got 2 Starbucks!

News and World Events
The election happened on Tuesday and the winner is Donald Trump... I can't believe I just typed that. I really had a little more faith in my country... but it is what it is. These are sad times. Our choices were terrible, and its going to be a longggg 4 years. If you support him and you can't take a joke and don't understand satire or parody... might be a good time to stop reading this blog. I can be a pretty nasty woman when I want.
And Jane The Virgin was good this week!

Thoughts
I don't even know what to think. Be nice to everyone you meet. Love everyone, don't let the election get in the way of your friendships too much... but if someone says something that's offensive and they're stressing you out... its okay to delete them. Just be nice to people.

How is American Horror Story Connected?- I don't necessarily agree with everything in this theory... but I liked the video anyway. It mentions that Shelby is a witch... which I did mention in one of my AHS reactions... but I think its more of a "cosmic balance of the universe" thing than a connection.
