Hoping to get to it this weekend. <br /><br />The Wire will go on my list. I don't mind depressing if beautifully done. <br /><br />Yes, ma'am. Stranger Things Season 2 WILL be watched. And the British shows will go on my list. Burn Notice sounds familiar. And Brooklyn sounds like something Adam and I could possibly watch together. We have a hard time agreeing on shows to watch. We did get into Ripper Street and a few other series (Vikings and such) but he tends to fall off the wagon at certain points then we are stuck watching reruns of Top Gear, American Pickers or Bizarre Foods. Old married life.

But get back to me when you've watched it, please - I think you'll want to talk.<br /><br />Let's see, favourite shows. Best show I've ever seen? The Wire. Universities and colleges could just get rid of their sociology, psychology, criminology, journalism and legal programs and run five seasons of The Wire instead - it's an education. It's also the most depressing thing I've ever watched in my life. Real hard watching.<br /><br />But seeing as I'll probably never watch The Wire again (absent the discovery of watching the story play out, it's too - here's that word again - hard to go forward knowing where everything ends up, as expertly crafted as the show may be) I'll say Buffy, yes, although it hasn't held up as well for me as, say, Angel, which I actually preferred both then and now (also off Netflix!) As you *may* recall (because I haven't talked about it AT ALL) I loved Stranger Things. Lord, my hopes are high for season 2. Couple of British shows - Misfits and its gentler little sister, Crazyhead (both currently ON Netflix!) Misfits is a dirty little show, though - definitely not kid-friendly. I adored all but the final season of Burn Notice; it was such a fun show. And right now I wish there were about a million seasons of Brooklyn 9-9 - fun cop procedural sitcom starring Andy Samberg, Terry Crews, a hilarious Andre Braugher. Alas, there are only four. It's just a fun show to watch. And if you could ever find them, Wonderfalls (a one-season, um, wonder) and Greg the Bunny, hilarious and weird, both.<br /><br />Cripes, novel much? ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-80964073656160890112017-04-06T07:06:40.866-04:002017-04-06T07:06:40.866-04:00Oh man.

Now that a friend above told me about the Serenity movie I am happy to see him just a little bit more. What are some of your fave TV series other than Buffy? (Which Netlix pulled off the roster April 1st too... booo).TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-66613687789973511782017-04-06T06:59:05.079-04:002017-04-06T06:59:05.079-04:00FUN!!!

I have been having a weird nausea/dizzy spell lately and I am hoping it will pass. I feel like it is always something sometimes. But the Jeep came back last night with the floor mats but still waiting on them to detail it like they promised (the previous owner definitely did some off-roading and the engine and under carriage are caked in clay/mud). But she is coming together. <3 Hope your week is going well. Any plans this weekend?TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-85449381330620625792017-04-06T06:56:28.894-04:002017-04-06T06:56:28.894-04:00Hey Sarah!!! YES! I am glad you liked it too. Oooo...Hey Sarah!!! YES! I am glad you liked it too. Oooo Serenity?! Movie?! I am going to search for that on Netflix and Amazon. I need to watch that. I plowed through my lotions and the ones I bought recently have been mini 2 ounce sizes but when my Cosmic Cleanse order comes I will be wading in it. I hope you are enjoying using it. :-) Yes! Revisit those samples and please tell me any favorites you have of hers that I should check out. I have Filthy Viking and Death in the Afternoon coming to me. What I am wading through is my wax (all the wax drawers are full now!) and sheet masks. I know I will use most in the summer when I can wear one a day. I just get so bogged down with day to day work that I don't wear them like I want to. What is Ajevie? I must go check it out.

There is always the good with the bad for ...Thanks. There is always the good with the bad for sure. Sometimes I can brush past it and other times it snags on my outlook and is hard to escape from. <br /><br />Emma Frost sounds good! Ginger. I think I have had one too many bad ginger experiences from CFTKR to want to see it in any scent notes unless there is pumpkin pie involved. I should fix that. Get out of my box. Glad you could get that candle to work out. I was worried it was going to be a flatline dud. <br /><br />Oooo! Nice show recs!!! I really should watch the Gilmore Girls. I get overwhelmed when there are more than about 3 seasons of a show and feel like I will never be able to watch it through. But I will persist. <br /><br />Hoping our April is full of more highs than lows. <3 Thanks for being a friend!TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-15369270511314917632017-04-04T19:33:11.807-04:002017-04-04T19:33:11.807-04:00Firefly!

Love in that my husband loves it, so therefore I must love it also (this is totally a thing that happens; we take on their DNA ;) ) But hate in that I was a huge Buffy/Angel fan, and Firefly diverted Joss Whedon's attention from those shows to Firefly, which of course was cancelled pretty darn quickly, and then everything just tanked from there. So I side-eye it pretty hard, although Nathan Fillion is a grumpy cutie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-43300350198157799592017-03-31T16:03:52.757-04:002017-03-31T16:03:52.757-04:00Yes to watching Firefly, I'm mentioning it in ...Yes to watching Firefly, I'm mentioning it in my Best & Worsts! (if I ever finish it, bc I seriously may not get around to it) How weird is that?<br /><br />Self esteem issues, we all have em. I failed my Wellness Challenge, or will soon, as it ends Monday. As fun as it is being a woman, sometimes it just SUCKS!<br />Focusing on the positive, your Jeep kicks butt and so do you:)Jaybirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15849863681125100236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-80430447578347423362017-03-31T09:15:08.905-04:002017-03-31T09:15:08.905-04:00I just finished watching Firefly myself....it was ...I just finished watching Firefly myself....it was SO good. I've heard the movie Serenity will answer most of those questions ;). Still working my way through my stockpiled indie lotion and bar soap and I need to re-visit all the Arcana samples I've purchased through Ajevie.

Sorry to hear there have been a few struggles along the way though. Try to keep your chin and spirits high, don't let anything dull your sparkle! Cheesy I know but its true. The world can be very weighing sometimes if not all the time so its hard not to worry/be doubtful/down. I hope things look up for you soon! <br /><br />With wax cravings I've been a little all over the place here recently. My favorite of the month being Emma Frost from ST. Something about that Sparkling Ginger and VBN blend. <br />My miss would be my Walnut Ave Candle Country Market yet I do have an update. I was able to get it to throw STRONG, like headache inducing strong in my candle crock.<br />Watching: Gilmore Girls(Netflix), Call The Midwife (SO GOOD)(Netflix), Re-watching Golden Girls (Hulu).<br />Lows would be stress, anxiety and low self esteem (you are not alone).
