There's fires burning outside of the area. The smoke and ash are winding up here making it hazy and smelling like a barbecue - time to whip out Apocalypse Now remark. Seriously, I'm grateful to not having any pre-existing breathing issues or living near the fires. The heat's let up some (smoke and ash overcast helps cut the sun's power some)and my brain feels up to composing an entry.

1) Binge watched all available episodes of Blood Drive. Fat Elvis and Clown Dick, we hardly knew you. Rib Bone, cause you got a cute little doggie that needs caring for, I'm not counting you out yet. Aki and Julian, will you marry me?

2) Prime Day was a bust for me. The dream router I wanted never happened. I consoled myself with a 10lb bag of diatomaceous earth and a discounted for the day Criterion Collection dvd of Grey Gardens.

3) Wynonna Earp second season keeps getting better and better!

4) Read The Missing Ones: An absolutely gripping thriller with a jaw-dropping twist steaming pile of crap (How the hell did you ever make Detective Lottie you will never be Olivia Benson Parker Book 1, DEAR GODS, NO, NOT A SERIES). Why does it have so many frickin stars on Amazon and Goodreads???!!! To give you the tip of the shit-berg: Our so-called detective goes off by herself on foot (she frequently walks around alone during the investigation, and it's winter with a ton of snow and ice on the ground) from a crime scene. She gets mugged and nearly strangled, but goes home and waits to report it the next day???!!! Also victim blames one of the deceased right after mugger gets scared off. This is all within the span of a chapter and a half. Lucky book, you are on my kindle, so I can't throw you against the wall.

5) With American Gods done, canceled Starz monthly subscription and got one to Shudder.

6) Got Princess Jellyfish 5 yesterday.

7) Congratulations, 13th Doctor. Who writers, DON'T screw this up.

8) RIP George Romero and Martin Landau :(

9) Third season of Rick and Morty on July 30th.

10) Wubba Lubba Dub-Dub!

I don't buy anything that advertises itself in the title anymore. Too many stupid characters, ridiculous plots, and "jaw-dropping twists" I figured out in the first ten pages.

I almost got a Shudder subscription so I could watch Jordskott. In the end I ordered it on DVD. I really liked it though.

Well I'm glad you found me. I am on tumblr but I've been getting burnt out on it so I decided to come back here. I'm doing hurt/comfort bingo which has me writing fanfiction again after a long time.

Aw, thanks for the reminder that I still haven't watched Grey Gardens or Wynonna Earp. And I somehow completely missed Prime day.

I didn't know about Romero and Landau :-/ But at this point, especially after Carrie Fisher, I'm just numb to all the losses.

I am so glad Moffat isn't going to be in charge of a woman Doctor.

I guess it's time to get caught up on Rick and Morty...

Stay safe!

Hope the fires don't come closer to you.

Amazon reviews can be ... hit and miss? Or I just have a different taste than everybody else ...

We really enjoyed Wynonna Earp too :O) Hoping a third season will occur.
The RIPs and for me esp Martin Landau, I really enjoyed his acting and from what I understand he was a really great guy.

Oh, have you watched iZombie? We really enjoy it and it too gets better with each episode.

I knew about George Romero, but how did I miss the news about Martin Landau? :(

I had a trial subscription to Shudder and I dug it!

I'm tickled that you're enjoying Blood Drive! I love Rib Bone's little dog - so cute!

I think that's one of my fears regarding Doctor Who, that the writing will not work. Because even if it's a female Doctor and whatever else, the Doctor still has to be The Doctor, who is a wacky person. Or something.... I know what I mean! :)
