Well as most of you RHOBH (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills) fans have heard Lisa Rinna is out for season thirteen.
"Yes" I know LVP (Lisa Vanderpump) posted my "ding dong" byline on Social Media, and it's accurate, not to mention funny!
Once upon a time Rinna was a agent of chaos in a loveable, F#ck Up type of way. Somewhere along the trail of breadcrumbs she left she evolved into someone quite malevolent and increasingly problematic.
Let's face it Minions she was downright uncomfortable and despicable to watch for a few years now. Especially this past season.
While I am sure some are sorry to see her go, I for one am not.
Hey Rinna, don't forget your broomstick on the way out...!!!
"I've been looking so long at these pictures of you, That I almost believe that they're real" - Pictures of You, The Cure
Pictures of You by The Cure has been my earworm for the past three days. Thus I poured over the lyrics in detail to find out if there was anything of significance. Well I found some, for me at least it is all about parting ways with who I used to be and welcoming who I am now. Yeah, I know, pretty deep for me, time to head to the wading pool!!!
FYI I can love me better than you can, the more you know...
Toddlers are suppose to run around the house, not run the house
I'm 100% going to see M3gan since the movie is a 96% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.
Which brings up the question what will they call M3gan 3???
Fine. I'll be house speaker, sheesh!
Did you know the song Short Dick Man by Gillette has a bawdy remix? Excuse me?!?!
The phrase "I laughed my ass off" has got to go. No one has ever literally done this, thus it is annoying when they say they have
Stop fighting your demons and start working with them. Demon love Minions, it's a thing

You can dance, or you can get pampered at a nail salon, for inspiration! Let's Hump Day & Chill to the amazing Selma Blair doing just that.
Selma has starred in a few of my favorite films, my most fave being Cruel Intentions. Oh, her doing the splits (in a naive sexual way) and the make out scene with Sarah Michelle Gellar were so divine.
Not to mention she recently came in at number twelve on Dancing With The Stars, and that was with multiple sclerosis. See where a positive attitude can take you???
BDE = Selma Blair
Hump Day & Chill, and repeat this mantra because Selma is 100% that bitch!!!
LA-raised singer-songwriterSophia Mariehas released the first single off her upcoming sophomore EP.
Sophia says, “Femme Fatale is an 80s-inspired ballad that depicts a narrator engaging in reckless, degenerate, and overtly flirtatious behavior because the one man that would make her calm, steady, and stable doesn’t love her back.
It’s a song that attempts to hide its insecurity but then blazes it out in the open, describing the narrator’s process of morphing into something she despises just to stoke envy in her lover’s heart. I was inspired by my own experiences, exaggerating my changes in personality when I became jaded or disillusioned with love, but I also drew heavily upon iconic historical and literary femme fatale figures like Cleopatra, Helen of Troy, and Moulin Rouge’s Satine to give it a sexy ambiance that causes dissonance with its depressing words.”

Sophia Marie's music is autobiographical. Each of her songs tells the story of a young life in progress. From leaving the sunny, casual west coast for a more buttoned-up DC life at Georgetown University (where she studies International Politics) to a life-changing semester abroad in Dublin, to unrequited romances and lovesick travels, each of these experiences is vividly documented in her music.

Singer and songwriter Sophia Marie George is a Los Angeles native and senior in the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University. Harboring various passions, she finds herself oscillating (sometimes rather chaotically) between many different realms: her major in International Politics, her authorship of creative works, and her love for acting in addition to her music.
Sophia often feels like an ambitious, lust-for-life, nomadic kind of girl without a particular direction, one who doesn’t know exactly what she wants to do or who she wants to be, or where she wants to end up, and her storytelling reflects that indecisiveness, that impulsiveness, that desire to do everything while she’s young. Drawing from her identity as a self-proclaimed “hopeless romantic,” Sophia has a penchant for romanticizing historical figures and events, contemporary lovers, and foreign cities, weaving in the story of her West Coast roots in sunny Los Angeles, her university life in the political and cosmopolitan mecca that is Washington D.C., and her role as an expatriate in foreign cities.
A shamelessly emotional person, Sophia’s vulnerability stands out, with witty lyrics and asides giving comedic, realist commentary on the different places and situations she finds herself in. She is a girl still very much figuring it all out, the kind of crazy soul who seeks out every opportunity and every emotion life can offer. A wildness that sometimes contradicts her inexperienced and naive demeanor, a romanticism that contradicts her occasional feelings of disillusionment, and a performative personality that often contradicts her desire for authenticity.
With all the fanfare that is January 1st, I began wondering does January 2nd have anything going for it, or does it get lost in the holiday shuffle?
As it turns out January the 2nd is National Science Fiction Day. While sci-fi is not my favorite genre there are some works that are a member of the family that I like.
Thus to commemorate it we have a poster of Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
I haven't seen it since it first came out (Yes, I was once young) and probably should watch it as an adult as I am sure I would comprehend it more now.
However twelve year old me remembers being awestruck by it. I'm sure it was mainly the visual aspect of the film, but hey, whatever works.
So today grab your favorite sci-fi novel or play one of those movies you have in your collection and blast off Minions!!!
