15 thoughts on Untitled Vampire Play

I was lucky enough to see Untitled Vampire Play w ritten by Kevin Douglas and directed by Devon de Mayo at Lookingglass Theatre. Here are some thoughts. Overall, I really enjoyed this production! I was especially impressed with the bat sounds as it really did sound like bats flying through through the theatre in a natural, scattered way Gotta love that it was set in Chicago I got nervous about actors appearing directly behind me during the production when it was announced that actors would move throughout the audience, which did happen, but luckily I noticed without being super startled (that said, I was impressed with how silently the actor had moved) While none of the costuming was elaborate, I did think it was all thoughtful and effective I know it was just a slight of hand thing, but I was genuinely impressed each time a vampire "caught" a crossbow bolt The set, while simple in appearance overall, was well done in terms of utilizing the space and clearly took a lot of pla...

Thoughts on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 11, episode 10

Time to find out who the final queen in the semifinals is! I think it would've been funnier if Michelle is bald and Ru is wearing a Michelle wig Dawn and A'keria look awesome! Side note, let me see more of their runway Crystal's look is great! Silky's fascinator is my favorite part of her look Kennedy looks divine Jasmine is stunning I also enjoy Sam's belt look Joey looks so great and I am genuinely excited to see her, but it is wild that there are 4 queens from bracket three Oooh this could be a fun twist Wait why can't A'keria even acknowledge Silky??? I do enjoy this scheming A'keria...you know stand up is not (usually) "Knock, Knock" jokes, yes? Lol Jasmine is just lying The queens are pretty funny Okay, to be fair to Crystal, everyone else was initially given a prompt Lol the Tina Burner wig Hrm well I'd obviously need to see the full back and forth between A'keria and Silky, but I am inclined to say that, from what Silky said, it...

Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé: The Last Resort season 3, episode 5

Time for a bar brawl?  Guillermo, I get that the situation sucks, but Kara seems to be wanting to provide for your son Sumit is kinda into Pao? I'm sure Shekinah had Sarper undergo STI testing Gah Russ and Pao are so awkward And we're going after Sarper's ear size again Zied, did you sincerely ask what flirting meant? It is telling that Sarper apologizes to Zied and not Rebecca Zied is giving VIBES As is Sarper Rebecca, Sarper has flaws, but it seems like he did give Zied his moment Okay, this time, I think Sarper should've apologized to Zied for takin ghis moment But, yes, Rebecca, Sarper should've apologized for the "Boot Laugh" Seems like Sarper is trying? I am kinda amused that Sarper is dancing for Jenny with Shekinah's approval Aw are Kara and Guillermo going to kiss? That hand kiss meant so much to Kara Shekinah, is Patrick the MOST SUPERFICIAL man you've ever met? Really? So, Shekinah, you don't have to like Patrick, but I don't qui...

15 tips I have for surviving the home buying process

I am far from an expert, but here are some tips I have from my experience (which did include a total of bids on 5 places and 3 accepted bids). Work with folks you trust (for me, this meant getting personal recommendations, but for you it might mean reading reviews) Don't be afraid to ask those trusted folks for their opinions (as a newbie to this process, I made sure to ask questions, even if they were perhaps silly) Try to determine what are your musts, what you can wiggle on, and what are just bonuses (e.g. a must for me was two bedrooms, I could wiggle if there wasn't a bathtub, but I could install one, and outdoor space was a bonus) Part of this is figuring out how much home renovation excites you vs. burdens you (I find the general idea of major renovations stressful, but some people find it exciting--if this is you, you will have way more options) Additionally, there are some less checklist-y things to consider like  Before determining a rough budget, take a look at what ...

Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé season 12, episode 8

Time for talking about issues with alleged loved ones with others.  Yeah, Edward, I'd be upset if Marissa called me a child too Marissa, Edward is trying Marissa, maybe get Edward warmer clothes so he can adjust to the different climate? Marissa, if you want your fence to be professionally fixed, hire a professional CATIE! YOU THINK  YOU'RE GONNA MARRY JOSH?! HE MOVED HERE FOR YOU Ryan, you CAN say no to Catie though Catie, I'm like genuinely concerned for you Rasit and Mallorie can make cleaning compromises I think Mallorie, tbh, you could've warned Rasit Holy shit! Seeing the car crash is ROUGH Oof, I'm so sorry Rasit couldn't be with you during that time Aw Rasit and Mallorie really do love each other Ashia, I think Maxwell knows better how to dress in his home country than you do Ashia, altering Maxwell's appearance is not "making him a better person" Ashia, yes, Maxwell's mom is mad at you because even though Maxwell has told you how to re...

I closed on a condo on Friday! Here are 15 things I like about it. It has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths It has a bathtub It has a dishwasher It has a gas fireplace It has a small patio It has a washer and dryer It has central AC It has hardwood floors It is close to friends, restaurants, and a grocery store It is on the first floor It is part of a courtyard building It is part of a dog-friendly building Its appliances are all fairly new (including a thermostat installed this year) Per my inspector, there are no hazards (only some minor things that need to be fixed) While it doesn't have parking, it is near a lot you can rent by the month (Prompt by me) Photo by Jakub Żerdzicki on Unsplash
