Hump Day Update! 11/22/17

What I'm Watching 

I watched all of the Community Christmas episodes over the weekend... there might have been one or 2 that I missed... but I watched the first 3 seasons and I loveeee that show and their holiday episodes are the best!

I also watched Corky Romano with my friend this week... weird movie... but a good one.

Tonight I'm really excited because Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is on and after that they're showing repeats (I think) of Modern Family and American Housewife.

I also watched Fresh Off The Boat and The Middle. Those were good this week. The Middle isn't my favorite show... but I do really love Fresh Off The Boat.

So happy Life in Pieces is back... I also watched Mom and I watched some of Curb Your Enthusiasm... so so funny!

That's about it!

News

Charlie Rose is the latest person accused of Sexual Harassment and has since been let go from his show CBS This Morning and his show on PBS. He didn't deny allegations, but he also said what he did wasn't horrible and that he believed he was pursuing shared feelings.

I think what makes me angriest about all of these terrible scandals is that the men accused aren't apologizing... they're making excuses. And what they did was wrong and inexcusable. I'm sorry. I watched Charlie Rose for a few years now... I really like the CBS This Morning Show... and I really liked the way Gayle and Nora handled everything. I really admire both of those women and I'm happy to see them on the show.

In happier news: On ABC they always show a reporter reporting on the balloon inflating with their kids... and the last few years Michelle Charlesworth has gone out with her son and daughter to report. There was a little girl from digital with them... it was really cute. I always like seeing that- I feel bad because my mom and dad were out getting dinner (our traditional pre-thanksgiving KFC feast. Lol.)

Food and Drink 
The Thanksgiving sandwich at Starbucks! They only have it until Black Friday... so you only have a couple days to get it... but it's great!

They have good peppermint bark there also... they'll likely have that all through christmas.

I ate Greek Food with my friend... she got a gyro and I got a souvlaki pita pocket... tzatzki sauce was amazing.

I had some Turkey Chili which was delicious... and tonight I'm eating KFC and Starbucks!

Favorites 

Community as I've mentioned.

I watched a few videos of the Universal Studios Christmas at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and that's really exciting.

I filmed a couple youtube videos I'm excited about.

Leslie Odom Jr's Simply Christmas Deluxe Edition is a great Christmas CD... as is the Muppet Christmas Carol Christmas CD... I tried listening to that with my niece before and it got her to sleep. Good stuff!

Other Stuff 

My niece has been so playful lately and she's been laughing and smiling... I know I've mentioned that but I love playing with her... she's just so fun.

I like hanging out at Starbucks... it is just really really fun.

And I'm excited for black friday deals!

Byeee!

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...

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...

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...
