It List! February 2017

1) Crazy Ex Girlfriend- I bingewatched the second season from my tivo in about a day... and it was really good! I think the first season was a little funnier... but I liked the second season so much that I actually went back and watched the first season again and now I'm watching season 2 again... even though I just watched it all... the CW is an awesome network to watch on netflix... highly recommend.

2) Jane The Virgin- Jane the Virgin is a very quick show... storylines happen and they're very dramatic and none of them ever really get solved but it's all very quick because it is a telenovela and it does follow that style... I'm guessing at least. American Soap Opera's are a lot slower than this... but this is all quite quick... I feel like Jane's relationship and marriage to Michael kind of slowed everything down a bit... and the stories were really cute and nice... but then... that storyline ended and now it's kind of back to being very quick and dramatic and they just did everything in a nice way. I really like it!

3) The Great Comet of 1812- After seeing Hamilton in January and re-watching Crazy Ex Girlfriend I realized I just really liked musicals... and this one is what I've been listening to a lot lately! I'm listening to the original off broadway musical cast because the Original Broadway cast recording is not released yet... I'm sure it will be... so Josh Groban isn't in what I'm listening too... but Philippa Soo is and that's awesome! If you look up the Comet of 1812... the venue is actually really cool. It was shown in a small dinner theater and the actors were running around the aisles and it made it almost interactive... I think the broadway version does that as well... but that must have been super cool to see!

4) A Dog's Purpose- I saw this movie and it was really really cute. I cried more than I cried in any movie ever... it was really good. I have a review on it somewhere on this blog... so I won't get too into it... but it's a good movie!

5) BLT LunchBreak Podcast- This is just a super funny podcast. I watch The Tim Tracker on youtube, he's in this podcast and it's just a really fun one! I like it a lot! It's just 3 friends catching up, talking about theme parks and dunkin donuts and other things... it's pretty cool!

6) Joanne by Lady Gaga- I love this cd! I'm seeing Lady Gaga pretty soon, so I've been listening to it in anticipation and excitement... but it is just a really really good one! I love it!

7) Dr. Teal's Relax and Refresh Eucalyptus Spearmint Soothing Bath Soak w/ Pure Epsom Salt- This smells really nice and it's just a very relaxing scent. I've really been loving it this month... I think I'm actually almost out... so that is a little bit upsetting... but it is a really really good bubble bath. Epsom Salts are supposed to be good if you have sores... I don't love bath salts... I prefer bubble bath... so this just works really well for me.

8) Daytime TV- I kind of like daytime tv... I like game shows a lot. The Price is Right and Let's Make A Deal are great... Millionaire is pretty good... I LOVE The Chew... Carla Hall is queen... and I've just sort of been watching it a little more. I've been at my sister's house a lot and usually The Chew, Millionaire and Right This Minute are on... so that's what we watch (along with the baby) and it's pretty good. It's something I think is worthy of a favorite this month.

9) Life in Pieces- This is always kind of a favorite on these It lists because I have it on a lot and it doesn't really get old. I don't get tired of it at least... it's a really funny show... I would recommend checking it out!

10) The Santa Clarita Diet- I forgot about this because I watched it all in one day... but it is a really great show and deserves to be mentioned on this It List! I really like it, highly recommend watching it... it isn't really that gory and it's just easy to watch all in one day. It's a little creepy... but it is a good one!

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...

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...
