Hump Day & Chill

Grace Jones

"I'm not perfect, but i'm perfect for you, Now i'm right on time, I'm not perfect, but i'm perfect for you, I feel right on time" - Grace Jones, I'm Not Perfect

"Yes" Minions we are gonna Hump Day & Chill to Auntie Grace Jones song I'm Not Perfect. This has been something I've been ruminating on of late. Life isn't perfect it's up to you to find your own bliss and not live by what is basically the perfect illusions you are given your whole life. 

"Just Let Go" of all of it find out who you are and what works for you. Because what makes you happy may not be conventional, but it doesn't have to be. 

Now without further hyperbole let's Hump Day & Chill to the amazing Grace Jones and I'm not perfect after the jump!!!

Jamie Lee Curtis For The Win

Yes!!!
Jamie Lee Curtis

I predicted Jamie Lee Curtis would win Best Supporting Actress for Everything Everywhere All At Once at the Oscars and I was correct indeed! (it's clear by Angela Bassett's reaction she thought otherwise.)

"Yes" I am a big fan of Jamie's and not too coincidentally a HUGE fan of the Halloween movies starring her. She's been long overdue for this kind of recognition and by damn she finally got it.

Of course she gave a heartfelt and amazing speech, that's always the icing on the cake of these shows, the speeches (for the most part.)

While I am a fan of her work outside of the Halloween series as well, one of the best parts of her speech was when she thanked the fans of the franchise. Rightfully so, it's because of the success of the 2018 Halloween reboot that she had a career resurgence that opened doors for new opportunities including the role that lead to her winning an Oscar.

Not only did I predict she'd win, I was rooting for her!!!

Michael's Musings

Michael Shinafelt

No full column today, many things on my mind of late. My Mom's Birthday was yesterday it's the first one she hasn't been with me and my family.

Lots of memories came flooding back, especially those of my recent visit with her at the end of January just prior to her passing. Lots of self reflection too.

Today's Musing came out of all of that.

Have a successful day!
