Fifteen Minutes of Scrawl

How many episodes will there be this season? Kathy remains a gem The ladies are getting drunk So Tom has a conservator Kyle is not helping anything Erika is being weird Lisa should've worn a swimsuit like she said she would Sutton's pineapple sunglasses are great This poor captain "My problem is shut up" Wow this is pretty Next time is the finale Next time Garcelle goes on a date Next time Crystal throws a party Next time Sutton and Erika make up? Can't wait! (Prompt by me) The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills  Bravo Promotional image source

Finale time! What mountain is Darcey talking about? I'm pretty sure Darcey and Georgi are still together This doctor is so reserved Babies don't suck out breast tissue, Darcey Cleopatra was way before the 1500s These twins are so weird Darcey and Stacey have some deep issues Starcey Octavia should've gotten some paperwork  The bandages are distracting Florian is so tepid I guess we don't see Georgi and Darcey get back together Huh I expected to see a reunion with the girls as the end I also expected to learn more about the one girl's pageant Well...season done I guess (Prompt by me) Darcey and Stacey  TLC Promotional image source

 I didn't watch live this time. Wow Steven and Alina are actually meeting with a lawyer DON'T HITCHHIKE Alina, you are being followed by production (thankfully) Providencia is ravaged I want Jenny to make friends Armando, I do think your mom is still struggling I think Victor should come to the US like was originally planned Steven, how do you know that you want to get married? Steven is seriously talking about watermelon when they were talking about marriage These opening bits of footage are getting longer Kinda seems like you missed the praying, Sumit Wow you're straight up saying it was for the papers, Evelin No one explained this process to Ari I want this conversation with Armando's dad to go well Sumit's sister-in-law is the most chill Sumit's parents have a point Why don't Jenny and Sumit move to the US again? The house is in shockingly good condition Is this the friend that said he was in love with Evelin? Did Jenny know Corey was married? Why did Je...

Ice fishing time! I can believe Zoom increasing desire for beauty treatments Ski biking is new to me Hot cocoa through straws is crazy Jen may steal your identity Mary is weirdly pushing the army on her son Jennie's kids are adorable Wait it's dangerous and Jennie's husband still wants her to do it? Heather's kids also seem great Whitney is pulling a Regina George The trout running is pretty funny Jen...just own up to it *Awkwardly drinks cocoa* No next time on? Well I bet it'll be good Can't wait! (Prompt by me) The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City  Bravo Promotional image source

This is just a post to mark that I have drafted my short film. Let me know if you want to read what I have so far (I'm writing it in a program that formats everything correctly but that means it would look like a nightmare on this blog)! Even if you don't, what should I name the main character and his daughter (currently they're named Victor and Cindy)?

Still Garcelle and Dorit fight time! "By the way, I have you in a shoe" "The Lady" Do they need this much space? Kathy remains my favorite Allegedly? Garcelle is right, they all can be shady Poor Garcelle Oh wow they want to put Tom in a home Please don't say that Erika has a motherly connection to her husband, Lisa Next time we go wine tasting Next time there is some support amongst the ladies Next time doesn't look that exciting... ...if I'm being honest Oh well I'll still watch!

So me and a friend of mine have a pact to make a short film together so I gotta get brainstorming. So far I have...a title and a general premise. I like the title and will not change it :P . Some of this is copy and pasted from my first brainstrom . Alone in the Moonlight About dementia Dreamscape Images to include In a rocking chair by the window (maybe looking at moon?) Post-it notes with different reminders, repeated, with shaky handwriting Caretaker appearing and vanishing in different places in the room Child appearing and vanishing on couch Seasons seeming to change constantly (or maybe not at all though the calendar has changed) Half-read books (as shown by bookmarks or books left open) Half-done crosswords Clutter  Clothes Newspaper Mail Charging cables Glasses (maybe blurry shots when lost?) Half-eaten trays of food Mirror The moon (maybe opening and closing shot?) Scenes to include Walking in the snow in slippers Maybe in leaves if we shoot in the fall or just outside dep...

Now I'm caught up! Jen seems sweet with her nephew Jen should leave Brooks alone Mary's house is insane Jen...things can be mean instead of funny Jennie's daughter is precious A billion dollar company, Whitney? Start smaller Robotic sex imitation The ice castles look amazing Why do I want Heather and Jen to make up so badly? I can believe Jen is treated differently because of her race So their bond is just rap lyrics? I don't think you throw churros into the fire Next time Jennie's husband wants more kids Next time they go ice fishing Next time Meredith goes off (Prompt by me) The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City  Bravo Promotional image source

New season! Somebody ratted out Jen Shah Do the ladies know something? Jen didn't own the Shah Chalet? Jen almost got a divorce?! "I haven't gone to jail yet" SPOOKY Is everyone moving? Whitney did not learn her cake lesson Everyone has a podcast these days New housewife alert! I'm sorry, Meredith Jen...you are doing some rude stuff This season we talk about Jen's crimes This season they wear penises on their heads This season Jennie throws down This season we talk about sex This season we talk about Mary's cult This season maybe Meredith tipped off the feds This season looks wild Can't wait On to the next episode!

 I didn't watch live this time. Wow Evelin didn't want to get married So they were married when Corey got a girlfriend "I got my nuts and I'm ready to fly" I feel so bad for Alina's mom and grandma Ari you didn't know that you weren't going to end up with Leandro until just now? Ah Ellie speaks Spanish, good for her Poor Ellie Ha people have to navigate around Steven's dropped suitcases Cassidy and Hannah are so cute together Aw Armando's dad loves him Why don't Ari and Biniyam move to the US so he can see his son? Sumit really should've gotten a new passport a while ago Steven, the camera crew is kinda like a chaperone Evelin's sister are devious Why did we watch an extended sewing scene? Do you know that Biniyam is a better match for you, Ari? I think the hostel looks cool Next time Ari and Biniyam go to a holy water site Next time Ellie and Victor go back to Providencia Next time Armando tells his family that he's having a we...

 Still Turkey time! She came barrelling down the stairs You shouldn't glue teeth back in by yourself God do we need to watch this part? Their teeth before were fine Did Amos call Georgi, George? Amos talks like he's reading new lines for the first time "Big belly and beers" Amos has a big mouth Georgi should've known that Florian would tell Stacey about Jesse Florian is so tired on this call That heel is ridiculous I don't care about this pageant coaching Coffee reading seems fun I thought the demon was Jesse Pretty sure Darcey and Georgi are still together though... Georgi, you also didn't call Darcey Oooh Georgie smokes Next time we're still in Turkey and getting lots of treatments Next time Georgi and Octavia meet up Next week is the finale!

Garcelle and Dorit fight time! Gotta love an extra invitation style Kathy remians my favorite I don't wish these kinds of accidents on anyone Keith is hot Okay, Erika is likely still Tom's POA so it's not weird that she'd be notified if he went in the hospital Sutton has a boyfriend? Kathy brought her architect? I thought it was the designer's designs, Dorit... The flower girl dress is precious I'm not a fan of Dorit's designs (the Woman is the best though) Finally we get to the disagreement between Garcelle and Dorit Garcelle is genuinely upset Next time Erika keeps making things confusing Next time Dorit and Garcelle are not done arguing Can't wait!

I'm using Google Docs to write it so it's not published, but you can read my draft here.: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PGHYTW1CKsMHmOSBZuwnEl3eP2unSVoQ2gU1_SWIMPM/edit?usp=sharing  This section starts at “Chapter 10” and ends with: “She then saw him again.” Also, what should I call the diner?

Now I will say that I have not done research into what it is actually like to work at/with a lot of these companies so perhaps they wouldn't actually be a great fit. Also, I fully acknowledge that the organizations may have problems. PAWS--I love animals One Tail at a Time--Again, I love animals The Field Museum--It holds a special place in my heart Princeton University Press--My friend there is having a great time Albert Whitman--My grandma worked there Publishers Weekly--I have respect for them Planned Parenthood--I believe in their mission Southern Poverty Law Center--Again, I believe in their mission Equal Justice Initiative--Again, I believe in their mission National Museum of the American Indian--I think it's an important museum Animal Planet--A childhood dream Lincoln Park Zoo--Another childhood dream Critical Role--I love it and would love to be a part of it Libellud--They made my favorite board game, Mysterium Dark Horse Comics--They published the Firefly  comics (Prom...

Still Turkey time! I like Darcey's blue dress "It's a yacht, right" *highest voice* "Yeah" This photo shoot is insane This boat ride does look beautiful Is there crew in another boat? Darcey just flashed the crew Darcey is trying so hard to be supportive Positive thoughts won't change if it's cancer It's weird to see Darcey's kids and dad without her Doors down? Sonic product placement This kid is straight up asking for money (and it worked) Watching the twins come down the cobblestone and ramp is hilarious Okay I see why Florian may distrust doctors So the cyst is fine Oof this is rough news for Stacey Georgi wants to fix his relationship problems with botox...he and Darcey belong together When you scrunch your face up...lines happen, it's normal even on young people Do the twins have matching panther rings? Stacey...let Florian talk Next time they get new teeth Next time they get coffee cup readings Next time is pageant training Next ti...

 I didn't watch live this time. Wow Jenny might actually become a devotee So Ari and Leandro didn't even really break up until she was pregnant Ellie has a nice house There's something very surreal about not being able to find out what is going on on an island Wow Kenny had only spent a week away from his kids before this move Kenny, you should tell Armando when you're depressed I'm not surprised that the missionary visa isn't working out for Jenny Will Ellie be able to keep her friend posted? This fighting "practice" between Leandro and Biniyam is uncomfy Oop Ari begged Leandro to come So Leandro does still have feelings for Ari Leandro is not answering the question about if he had sex with Ari Corey...no... IT WAS YOUR SISTER'S PROM DRESS? Alina, this is a wild plan Also, Alina, Steven will see that you're a mutual friend  Ah she has a plan for that Ari, if you're so worried, I do think you hooked up with Leandro Biniyam, Ari has said eno...

Well I promised I'd be more open on this blog so here it goes. There are two main things that I feel (emphasis on feel) are holding me back right now. One is more within my control than the other. First, the thing that is more out of my control. My dad is dying. There is no way around it, that's how it is. Now exactly how quickly he is dying is up for much debate among every doctor we talk to, but the prognosis isn't good is what they all agree on. I feel (again emphasis on feel) this holds me back in a few ways. One, I feel (boy I'm saying that a lot) that I need to stay where I am in a lot of ways. I want to stay in my apartment because of how close it is to him (although I did consider moving but nothing could beat this place and I never considered moving out of my neighborhood and certainly not my city). I want to stay in my job because it provides me the flexibility and bereavement leave that works for his condition and my team is very understanding (for other reas...

So me and a friend of mine have a pact to make a short film together so I gotta get brainstorming. So far I have...a title. I like the title and will not change it :P Alone in the Moonlight About dementia Unclear that main character has dementia in beginning ideas on how to demonstrate have the main character ask repeated questions have post-its all over the place that have phone numbers and other reminders on them have the main character talking about holidays that are out of season based on calendar and/or how outside looks through a window maybe it's one long conversation cut up to look like multiple try to make the movie dream-like Other possible characters in film Child of main character Care taker of main character Main character is unsure why they're there Maybe character realizes they have dementia during it, like they journey with the audience to realize it Maybe the last scene is just like the first scene Possible topics to cover in conversation between main character...

Night begins. It is time. *** Purple mist hangs in the pinkish air. It is either daybreak or sunset, hard to tell. Maybe it's no time at all. Maybe it's no world at all. I wander and inhale, the mist is scented with lavendar and lilac. Perhaps every color is tethered to senses here. The pink air does have a hint of rose. The ground is yellow. Absently, I reach to grab some of it and bring it to my lips. It tastes of sunflowers. The world is all flowers I find. The dreamer sits a ways off, digging absently with one hand in the yellow earth. The motion is repetetive, compulsive. The dreamer does not seem as calmed by the atmosphere as I am. I approach the dreamer, but, as always, the dreamer does not see me. They dig, and dig, and dig with one hand. The other rests at heart center. I wish to ask what they are digging for, but they wouldn't be able to answer me. Instead, I observe more closely. The hand on the heart is digging into the chest ever so slightly, the finger nails ...

Dramatic dinner at Kathy's time! Erika is furious Yes, we needed a Patrick shot here "I'm not threatening, I'm promising" Lovin' all these Patrick shots Lisa, saying thank you in the moment is plenty This jewelry is nuts These poor store people Oop a dig at Kyle and Dorit at the same time Kyle, are you saying that it's Sutton's fault that Erika went after her weakness? PK, you're not crisis management though "I didn't grow up in a fish family" Garcelle looks incredible Crystal is right, Erika and Sutton aren't friends Next time Tom has a series of mishaps Next time Garcelle and Dorit get into it (Prompt by me) The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills  Bravo Promotional image source

Turkey time (I think)! Turkey stock footage! "My cankle has a Charlie horse" Surprise cat! Snow soccer is pretty funny Aw poor Georgi This villa is gorgeous Darcey, you should stop reaching out to Octavia Stacey, you haven't told Darcey about trying to have a kid? Like you've talked about it on the TV show... Shorest consultation ever I did not ask to see this dental work up close Those nubs are nightmare fuel High Darcey is hilarious Florian is a trooper Georgi, contacting Jesse is not helpful Georgie is right that Darcey's trust issues are deep-seated No, Jesse, I don't believe that she was dating both of you at the same time...I believe she was talking to both of you at the same time Jesse, you just want more screen time At least Georgi realized the call was a mistake Next time we're still in Turkey Next time Stacey opens up to Darcey Next time Georgi gets botox Next time Stacey gets an update from the doctor Next time looks like a journey Should be goo...

Dear Hoban, Sorry for writing this a day late, but somehow I don't think you'll care. Or at least I hope you won't. Anyways, it's been a year already. Can you believe it? It seems both fast and slow to me. In some ways it feels like I have had you in my life forever, but yet we are still working on some things (like the barking you were just doing). Was there really a time that I thought I could give you up? I think a lot of that came from getting you a bit too quickly after Velma's death. Yet if meant to be is a thing then I got you exactly when I should have. I still had so much love to give after Velma and I knew I could provide a good home. Some of it also came from your, let's call them quirks. I know you want to protect me (from joggers, cyclcists, cars, dogs), but we really had some stuff to work on. In training you though I have learned so much and we have bonded a lot. Some of it also came from my own insecurities. I still worry that you could be so muc...

I didn't watch live this time. Can't Sumit get a new passport? Ari is still in love with her ex... Whoa Ari isn't even wearing her ring What is this music? Wow Alina's family is really worried about the Mormon thing Evelin wants her friends to be jealous...cool How much money does Corey have? Corey...there are chiller ways to talk about the price of a wedding Aw Kenny and Armando have a kitty on a leash Kenny...did the engagement beat out your kids being born? Aw a wedding vision board Armando...to be honest...is your family going to come? Ellie...how could you not have told people? Ellie, his cheating was soooooo bad Ellie! He has a domestic violence charge?! Ari...that wasn't a funny joke Steven asked to date other girls? This is a wild plan to get someone to try and seduce Steven Seeing a lawyer is such a solid idea, Sumit and Jenny...I'm honestly surprised This is insane Hurricane foreshadowing Steven, you haven't talked about living arrangements and you...

Dramatic dinner at Kathy's time! I don't like the Pearl I don't like the Moment I don't like the Actress The Woman is okay On Real Housewives, renewing vows does seem to be the kiss of death for a marriage Do you not know what a guinea pig is, Crystal? I don't think Erika and Crystal were saying that Sutton wasn't important, I think they were saying that the gossip won't affect her Aw Mauricio is being sweet Mauricio and Kyle are cute "I'm a fluffer"--Kathy is gold Kathy is trying to have a nice dinner Poor Patrick This dinner got so awkward I would be Lisa in this situation, just playing with the dog No next time on?

Last one! What if they let the queens vote on the winner? Lol Kylie did miss the purple memo Aw Ginger's got a sweet husband I love all the queens just being sweet I don't get Kylie's dress tbh Ginger has a good perspective on things Ra'Jah, you did amazing Eureka has grown I wish Kylie had worn her monster outfit during the talent show Twas a great season! (Prompt by me) RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars  Paramount Promotional image source

Finale time! So Trinity voted for Ra'Jah I love Ru's suit Do the queens get some of the money for Ru's songs that they write a verse for? The queens are so excited for Tanya Tucker Ra'Jah's section sounds like it will be the deepest They're all struggling a bit with the choreo Is Michelle going to talk during these interviews? Aha here she is talking The four posing together was adorable Ginger can really sing Kylie looks phenomenal Ra'Jah made the best use of her time Eureka looks amazing Ginger looks beautiful Kylie looks sexy, but I dont think it's enough Ra'Jah looks great, but I want more for the finale (though I think it's significantly more than Kylie's look) I like this part where everyone just says nice things Oh they already know that they're going to make them all lip sync Making them all go separately is a bit odd to me because it makes it much harder to be unique I like Ra'Jah's lip sync look better than her runway lo...

Finale time! Oof Sonja...that was a lot "She's got WAP energy" I love everyone's confusion Are the servers still here? I kinda can't believe they all went topless I'm glad they're hugging Leah I kinda want to break plates now I fear how this identity swap thing is going to go These poor cooks So far the identity swap is funny Wow who knew the identity swap would be sweet? I thought Lu already had a non-alcoholic rosé she liked I want Eboni to be happy Next time is unseen moments? Not sure I'll watch it tbh (Prompt by me) The Real Housewives of New York City  Bravo Promotional image source
