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!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
