Thoughts on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 8, episode 1

Season premiere! 

  1. Great season preview
  2. Prime creepy music to start off the Forrest and Sheena storyline
  3. I mean, this relationship would not be my vibe, but Forrest really seems happy
  4. Okay, Forrest, I'm not 100% against your mom and stepdad going to the Philippines with you, but does Sheena know they're coming?
  5. Emma! You're trying on wedding dresses at your friend's appointment?
  6. Emma, you're only 27...there is so much time for marriage
  7. How old is Izzi? (Ah, they're twins)
  8. You're both too young to be getting this much Botox (IMO)
  9. Emma, get thee to therapy (not as a slutshaming thing, as a "I fall in love right away" thing)
  10. Okay, Emma, if you even admit you've had a bad track record with guys, I think it's 100% fair that your sister is suspicious of Ziad
  11. Wow, I really don't get how a dude saying 15 minutes into a first conversation that you're his future wife is not a huge red flag
  12. So like, nothing against Morocco, I'm sure it's great, but why are you so focused on Morocco, Emma?
  13. How does Ziad know you if he doesn't know that you've been engaged before? Like that feels like a huge piece of backstory
  14. Laura, talk to friends, not AI (that reel was wrong)
  15. Laura, I do approve of you reading and writing dark, smutty romance novels
  16. So, Laura's work that she reads isn't groundbreaking, but I think it's marketable
  17. Wait, why is Laura not dating Michal?
  18. Laura, you're more than 20 years older than Birkan
  19. Okay, Forrest's mom (Molly?), you should NOT be picking out a sexy present for his partner
  20. Emma, you and Ziad haven't met yet...I think it's fair that he may not be ready to get engaged
  21. Rick, those mannequin heads creep me out
  22. Rick has cute kids
  23. My god, Rick, Trisha is is like half your age
  24. Rick, how do you not know what city Trisha lives in?
  25. Rick, you didn't know Madagascar was real?
  26. Rick, you got 5 kids? Also, you expect that Trisha wouldn't want kids of her own?
  27. Ah, well, if Trisha ghosted you, Rick, I do see why you're hesitant to agree to kids
  28. Molly, I get being hesitant about the idea of Forrest staying longer in the Philippines, but he is an adult
  29. Emma, you'll also be able to buy stuff in Morocco if you need--you're going to Marrakesh, right?
  30. I'm sorry, Emma, your INTERNATIONAL flight is an hour and you're not even at the airport
  31. Yeah, Emma, you shouldn't bring the dress your ex's mom made for you...
  32. WOW! 20 OTHER GIRLFRIENDS! HOW DID HE KEEP UP WITH THAT?
  33. Sorry, Emma, but you said it took you a long time to get over your ex, but I feel like the math on that isn't mathing (especially since you said there was overlap)
  34. Laura, why do you think Birkan is "the love of your life"? You have not met him
  35. Wait, wait, wait...Michal might come to Türkiye?
  36. Ah so Michal didn't want you, but doesn't want anyone else to have you
  37. I hate watching people cry
  38. Ah, okay Forrest does have a past of getting scammed
  39. Emma, you're wild for moving your sister's mirror while she's driving
  40. Wow so Emma was fired
  41. Emma just gave her sister's number for free checked bags
  42. Wait, Rick, so Trisha didn't 100% ghost (not that 98% ghosting is great, but I thought she'd gone radio silent)
  43. I mean, Trisha probably is lying to at least some extent
  44. No shame in being on a budget, Rick, but like...it's expensive to bring someone to the US...are you aware of this?
  45. Rick, did you hook up with someone who wasn't Trisha?
  46. Ho boy, Ziad, what did you not tell Emma?
  47. Can production not help Emma?
  48. Okay, Ziad, pretty sure in this very episode that I saw you say Emma could kiss you at the airport (ah we get a nice confirmation of this)
  49. Not sure I believe if Ziad is being truthful when he says he meant Emma could give just a cheek kiss
  50. This season Emma gets on a camel
  51. This season we meet Jovon and Annalyn and learn too much about Jovon's poop
  52. This season we meet Lisa and Daniel (who didn't sexually perform well)
  53. This season Aviva and Stig (who is a famous rapper in Belize)
  54. This season Aviva's aunt confronts Stig about other ladies
  55. This season Michal DOES come to Türkiye even though Laura did not tell Birkan
  56. This season Ziad asks Emma about the time period that Emma was dating (and getting engaged to) her ex
  57. This season maybe Sheena has been lying to Forrest
  58. This season it really seems like Daniel is forcing Lisa to withdraw cash from an ATM
  59. This season there are quite a few fights and/or breakups
  60. Looks great!

15 facts about my dad

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
