15 thoughts on Death on the Nile SPOILERS

I saw my first movie in theaters since the pandemic and wanted to write a bit about it.

  1. I did not think it was Gal Gadot who died
  2. I definitely thought I had figured out the crime several times (I did eventually but only after several wrong guesses)
  3. I loved the costumes
  4. Poirot's mustache was ridiculous
  5. It was super convenient (and odd) that the staff of the boat left every night
  6. Also, those poor staff who had to deal with five deaths at their place of business and had to carry two of the bodies around like it was a normal part of their job
  7. It did take a while to get to a death
  8. Gotta love the secret lesbian reveal
  9. I wonder if in the original book there were Black characters (I'm not at all complaining that they were in the movie, I'm just curious about the source material)
  10. Sometimes the special effects just weren't good enough
  11. There was more music in it than I thought there would be
  12. I'm not sure the opening scene of Poirot during the war was necessary
  13. There sure were a lot of guns for a wedding party
  14. I want to see Murder on the Orient Express now
  15. I hope there are more Poirot movies--they're fun

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...
