Weekly Wrap Up 2.12.17


Favorites 

Jane The Virgin- I started this week out with watching Crazy Ex Girlfriend again... but then with the twist on Jane The Virgin I decided to watch that again... I think I'm going to do Throwback Thursdays on both of them because there's stuff I noticed and basically... everything leads up to the twist that just happened. Same with Crazy Ex Girlfriend... which is next on my list... it's just a great show. 

Crazy Ex Girlfriend- So I just caught up to what is probably the best episode of the series: "That Text Wasn't meant for Josh." Maybe I'll do a Top 5 favorite episodes of this too because this is just a great show. I'm so excited for next season... there was a lot in the first season that sort of hinted at Rebecca's past. 



News and World Events

George Clooney and his wife Amal just announced that they are expecting Twins! They will join Beyonce's twins in being super awesome twins of famous people! Congratulations to them! 

Betsey Devos tweeted that she did her job for a day and asked where the pencils are! People tweeted her back saying "We pay for pencils ourselves... get your own!" So... she was just kind of asking people to troll her. 

Nordstrom and TJ Maxx both dropped the Ivonka Trump line from their stores. Trump's campaign manager gave an illegal-ish plug to the brand and was confronted about that because... it is illegal-ish. Just either way... I don't necessarily think "Ohhh we need to buy Ivonka Trump to show our support" or "Ohhh I need to buy from Nordstrom to show my support." Make much sense. Just buy whatever you want. If you had something that you wanted from Nordstrom or from Ivonka's brand... buy it? I don't exactly think Nordstrom or Ivonka is struggling... so just buy whatever the heck you want! I do like the insurgence of celebrity tweets about what they're buying at Nordstrom... mostly because I like to see what they're buying and it's adorable that Kristin Davis is buying shoes from the SJP line. Plus the Chelsea Handler picture with the Muslim Man and the Gay man in front of the white house with Nordstrom bags... I'm not really a fan of Chelsea Handler... but that's kind of cool to see. 

Tv Highlights 
Jane the Virgin and Crazy Ex Girlfriend of corse. 

How to Get Away With Murder is just a little too late for me to really pay attention too... ugh idk why my attention span is so short with TV now... but I can't pay attention to Superstore, Powerless, Life in Pieces and then How To Get Away With Murder... and maybe Scandal. I really like Scandal... but I prefer Life in Pieces. Idk lol. 

The Goldbergs and the ABC shows were all new... I missed the Tuesday ones I think... but the rest were all good! 

Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown was on and really cute and good. The newer one that they showed after the original cartoon was very badly animated though. Charlie just looked different and... it just wasn't very good. 


Noteworthy Snacks 
I ate a lot of leftover Chili from the Superbowl. 

I also had Pizza rolls that were really good... Devil Dogs and things like that were all good this week. We found Oatmeal Cookies with Icing from a few months ago... it's just all good! 


Music
I've been singing the Eliza songs from Hamilton all week! I wrote a blog about it... and I just like the songs. I sing along to them too and I just really like them. Burn was particularly powerful to watch performed live... it was just really good. 


Quotes
"If somebody talks about you behind your back, just fart." something I saw on instagram. 

Thoughts 
Sometimes you need to re-watch tv shows to get all the little details... that probably isn't the best life advice ever... but that's what I've got! 



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
