Fifteen Minutes of Scrawl

Not sure what we're in for because last episode ended with a season preview instead of an episode preview. Shekinah...just leave this other couple alone Sarper...do you really think this therapy is going to help you two? OMG they had to blur Guillermo's tongue Also, Russ, have you tried even just starting with using a toy on Pao? I mean, Guillermo's hard line wouldn't be my hard line, but if that's his boundary then that's his boundary I kind of get what this therapist is saying, but I'd say Guillermo should treat Kara more gently than a random person in the world because she's his child's other parent Kara, give Guillermo space No, Kara, Guillermo has the right to establish physical boundaries Why is Sumit cooking? Guillermo brought arepa flour to the resort? Omg this cannibalism discussion between Guillermo and Kara is hilarious, but also a bit disturbing Guillermo, I will say if Kara didn't wipe, there isn't as much of a need... Kara, you ...

I saw an online challenge to "ruin a book by adding a word" with the example Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret Thatcher . So I decided to take up the challenge but I also allowed myself to slightly alter one word in the title as well. The Tale of Peter Rabbit Stew The Kite Runner-Up The Girl with the Temporary Dragon Tattoo The 7 Habits of Allegedly Highly Effective People What to Expect When You're Expecting In-laws White Pride and Prejudice Charlie Sheen and the Chocolate Factory Where the Crawdads Sing Karaoke The E-Book Thief Fifty Shades of Greyhound The Old Man and the Seagull The Divine Comedy Stand-up The Busboy in the Striped Pyjamas The Cat Burglar in the Hat The Joy of Sexting (Prompt by me) Photo by Gaspar Uhas on Unsplash

Time for some surprising allegiances.  Marissa, Edward is hot...he doesn't need this coaching Also, you two don't HAVE to match outfits Marissa, sorry, I do think the dudes would be perfectly happy talking to Edward about just baseball for the first time they meet Marissa! Maybe try speaking in Spanish and see how "intellectually stimulated" you can make Edward. Like fuck off Wait, wait, Catie's family is in her life? Also, Catie, you told Josh you didn't have a favorite chicken, but there was an evil one who plucked out your favorite chicken's feathers...girl... Josh, your accent is fine Wait, Catie and Josh haven't talked about religion yet? Also, this could just be the edit, but I do not think we've seen Catie talk about religion, being Lutheran, or even God this whole season Catie, I will say that Josh traveling may take longer cause of visa stuff so I get his stress Also, like, yeah, Catie, you may have some issues with traveling because of yo...

We're gonna keep having hot days! Drink iced drinks Plop a cube of ice on your head Drop a cube of ice down your shirt Get paper towels or wash cloths wet and put them around your wrists and neck Purchase a neck fan Put your hair in an up-do Avoid higher levels of buildings (if possible) Eat only cold foods Dress as minimally and breezily as possible Sit in the shade (when able) Jump in the lake (or whatever body of water you have) Take a trip to a cooling center (for Chicagoans, this is the city's map of cooling centers ) Go see a movie in a movie theater for a play at a theatre (these places are always super cold) Take a cold shower For sleeping, get a towel wet with cold water and use it as a blanket (Prompt by Eleanor Pratt) Photo by Giorgio Trovato on Unsplash

Because of who I am as a person, I recently thought to challenge myself to write a parody of "Elizabeth Taylor" by Taylor Swift to be about our 12th president, Zachary Taylor .  Zachary Taylor Do you think you're a bygone? The view of your second tomb was on my mind when I heard the this song by Taylor Swift-y Ooh, oftentimes it doesn't feel so enduring to be thee All the right ranks Given they'd sway Voters sans bloc They bolstered away Your campaign Your second tomb was on my mind yet no one will know why Cause your presidency weakly passed by None did notice your term Zachary Taylor Tell me for real Do you think you're a bygone? You were our twelfth prez, but none could name you And you died from too many cherries... Or was it cause you were given poison You're only as known as your impact, baby You were our twelfth prez, but none could name you And you died from too many cherries...ooh Hey, what could you possibly do with the third shortest duration an...

Not too long ago, I saw Toy Story 5 with friends! Here are some thoughts.  As always, the Toy Story  team did a great job I was happy for Jessie to take center stage The legion of Buzz Lightyears was just too funny I genuinely appreciated that, in the end, technology is not the evil initially thought, but rather it's how and why kids use it that makes the difference It was moving how Jessie's first kid named her daughter after Jessie, but that said, I can't think of a toy I'd name my kid after (but perhaps that's because my toys have names like "Tiger Kitty") I was able to predict a few moments in the story, but there were some genuine surprises The non-main toys were all excellent comedic relief I feel like Bonnie and Blaze had way more creative play than I did as a kid (not that I didn't have fun, creative times, but I don't think I constructed like a royal ball where there are spies, one of whom turns out to be the bomb they're trying to fi...
