15 final thoughts on season 3 of Stranger Things

I've now finished the season, so here are some more thoughts.

  1. Steve's character development is great (I am stealing this point from my friend Jeff). Look at him from the beginning of season 1 to where he is now. He even progressed from babysitter to friend and mentor. He also finally got past notions of 'cool' when considering people.
  2. I guess we just gave up on Kali? I kept waiting for us to summon the other magic teen, but El never did. El has the ability to find anyone in the world and when we need more help, we don't get her? Or we don't even consider getting her? Sigh.
  3. Are Joyce and her kids moving in the middle of the school year? If it's about three months after July 4th, it's early October...why are they moving then? It doesn't make a ton of sense to move Jonathan in the middle of his senior year.
  4. Where's Murray? Is he alive? Is he imprisoned? Did he move his bunker? I got more attached to him this season and so I wanted to get at least a glimpse of where he's at now.
  5. Joyce has a type doesn't she? Too bad that type is dying in front of her eyes after making huge efforts to save her and the world.
  6. I really wish we had seen some better moments between Billy and Max. It would've made his death more impactful.
  7. Erica getting the D&D books was a great moment. I hope we get to see her DM, she'd be incredible.
  8. Still not super clear what the mind flayer wants.
  9. The mayor plot line did not need to happen at all. He really was just wasted time.
  10. Now that the mayor's office is open though, I really want a character we know to run for it. Maybe the science teacher? Maybe one of kids' parents? 
  11. So does everyone in Hawkins think that their loved ones who morphed into the creature thing died in the mall fire? Or like what do they think happened?
  12. Is there going to be a mass-exodus of Hawkins? The news report made it seem like it was becoming well-known as a bad place to live. So are some people going to leave?
  13. Could Hawkins become a tourist site for conspiracy theorists or other people who believe in the supernatural? I feel like the news report could also have this effect.
  14. Who is the American? Could be Hopper, could be Billy, hell it could be Barb somehow. Why not? There better be another season cause I gots to know.
  15. More importantly, is that demogorgon d'Artagnan? He better be, that's all I have to say.

I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and t...

Starting my parental journey, part 8

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here , read part 6 here , and read part 7 here . I have begun birth control again. Now, that may sound like I'm bailing out of my fertility journey, but it's actually the opposite. In order to get everything ready for the egg retrieval, I need to hop on birth control for a little bit and then hop off. It feels a bit odd to be taking oral birth control, have a birth control arm implant, and be getting ready for an egg retrieval--but that's how it goes (for me at least--getting to keep the arm implant is rare or so I'm told). People have asked me how I'm feeling about this round of egg retrieval and honestly, I haven't thought about it much yet. I am focused on a big stressful event for work and then C2E2 (Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo--basically, Chicago's Comic-Con) which I attend every year. Because of these two events (one stressful, one fun), I del...
