Fifteen Minutes of Scrawl

Season premiere/bracket 1, episode 1!  The patches on Ru and Michelle's jumpsuits are fun Morphine Love Dion as a ladybug is so beautiful I'm so glad Lucky Starzzz is back because we did not get enough of her on her season (and her look is just ART) I almost didn't recognize Mystique Summers, but wow glad to have her back (and looking great)! I was expecting Morgan McMichaels's look to have a Ruveal I remember really enjoying Dawn on her original season and this look is pretty fun A'Keria C. Davenport's look is ethereal and immaculate Aha so only 2 queens from each bracket will move forward Lucky is a bit intense I mean, I'd be nervous if I was Mystique or Morgan cause I'd feel like the producers put us int he same bracket together cause they wanted to get our story done without having to advance us I do agree with Mystique that you need charisma for every challenge, but this challenge seems to require some dancing (and other specific) skills So glad Mor...

Can you believe this is post 2801?  Wow, it's been over 7 years! I like my current balance of listicle and longer form post I do have a goal to continue my cryptid novel and to make more time for that I also want to dedicate more time to my podcast idea ( Don't Name Your Kid After Me ) I'm always in want of prompts, so please send me some (especially listicles!) I know I can see how many people read each post, but I rarely think to do it so I actually often forget that people actually read my posts That's not to say I don't appreciate you for reading--I really do appreciate you! It just means I am sometimes surprised when folks comment on a post because with the volume of posts I do, I genuinely forget that folks engage with any I want to try some more creative prompts (are there any new kinds of challenges I can take on?) At times I've considered doing posts less frequently, but I think if I don't aim for posting every day, it becomes too easy to put it off...

Okay, I've finally started writing the novel that I did some stream of consciousness posts about ( "Stream of consciousness about a novel idea I have, part 1" ,  "Stream of consciousness about a novel idea I have, part 2" , and  "Stream of consciousness about a novel idea I have, part 3" ). Now, I want to keep it unpublished, but I also want credit for working on it (lol). So, with that in mind, I'll do a post like this when I've worked on it for a bit, and you can shoot me a message if you'd like access to the Google doc.  NB: While there will be multiple posts in this vein, I will not link them to each other because the text will remain the same, so linking to part 1 from part 2 (etc.) won't yield any new information.

Time for some kissing and talking about kissing. Uh, so Philip seems like a nice enough guy, but this living situation is bizarre Okay, be real, does Wayne work for like a UK tourism board or something? His dates are AWESOME So, Jamal, I see your point, but if someone asks how it was growing up as a single child...you did grow up as a single child... Ugh I still don't like Tony Vanja is hotter than you, Tony, you are correct Hey, Cortney, you didn't have to be transporting Colt ANYWHERE So, Villa, I get that you fell for Liz, but Liz was not exclusive with the guy back home and you two had not had a talk about intentions or plans, so I don't see her as having done anything wrong Pedro, just like give up on Sophie...she is NOT ready for a relationship Wayne seems like a good guy Uh, Tony, you could've prepped Vanja JUST A TAD earlier Gosh, Vanja, I just want you to be happy Tony's mom is very pretty So, Vanja, I'm like you in that I'm not religious. But, if I...
