Throwback Thursday: My First Valentine's Day With My Boyfriend

 Alright so... my boyfriend and I have always had a fun Valentine's Day. We don't always like to celebrate big on the actual day because our half-anniversary is on the 16th. So the first year we were together we didn't think we'd be able to celebrate on Valentine's Day... so we were going to celebrate on the 16th... and last year I closed on Valentine's Day- so we couldn't really do anything until the 16th. This year I'm not really sure what we're doing but... idk. I'd be happy doing something any day. The half year marker... idk I still kind of like celebrating it even though we've been together a while... so I like that Valentine's Day falls around that time. 

Anyway... so I don't want to tell the whole story of the first year... but I'll tell the funny bits of info that I think you'll laugh at. 

So... he was supposed to have jury duty... but they ended up not needing him... so that all in its own is kind of funny that our first Valentine's Day could have been him in Jury Duty. 

But...yeah it was good cause I got out of work early and we ended up going to the movies. And he had some coupons so we went ALL OUT on the snacks. We got the large popcorn... I think we got one large drink to share and we got a pretzel. And the Pretzel was taking a really long time to get or maybe it was the popcorn or something... but we were already kind of late and at this point we missed the previews... but anyways... it was all good. 

So when we were grabbing the soda... I think they filled it up a little too high with ice... or maybe we just messed up but knowing the movie theater we went to... it was probably their fault. And I'm not one to blame the service industry for stuff... but... yeah. I think it was their fault. 

ANYWAY I digress... of corse when the soda is handed to us it immediately SPILLS ALL OVER THE FLOOR! And everyone just looks at us and laughs. THEY LAUGH! Lol. It's funny. One woman commented "That is how this day is." Or something... which seemed insulting but Aspen and I are just the cutest couple ever so clearly that's not it. 

Anyway... that's our kind of cute story of our first Valentine's Day. And I hope we'll have another fun story this year! But it won't be us spilling anything at the movies because we only watch movies at home for the time being. 

Bye!

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...

September 2015: It List

Now that I do weekly favorites, I feel like these will be less surprising... but still. Some good things. 1) Pumpkin Spice Lattes- Its the most wonderful latte of the year! Lol. All the yes. Soooo much yes. Its so creamy and pumpkiny and delicious. It was what has been missing from my life for a long time and now its back and I think they get more and more delicious every year. And I know last year people were like "pumpkin spice isn't cool anymore." Have you had any? It is delicious!!!! I'm a big fan of the PSL. 2) Arrow- I've been wanting to watch this show for a while. The guy that plays Oliver is not only hot, but he was really funny and good on a talk show I saw him on... so that made me like "ohh I need to watch this." I'm also not super into comic books or anything, but I do like Batman and DC movies at least more than anything else and I didn't really realize that there were so many tv shows in the DC universe right now. There are a f...
