OCD in full effect!

I did go back to watching Once, but I did take a break on Monday to watch last week's episode of "Agent's of SHIELD"...problem is, it was such an AMAZING episode, I have literally watched it over and over and over again all week long! It is the absolute PERFECT Fitzsimmons shipper episode and it is the episode that the fans have been waiting for since the beginning (well, at least this fan)! I know how the Fitzsimmons cannon goes, and I'm fully aware that there is some horrible disaster waiting one or two episodes from now, but for the moment, I'm still basking in the glory that was episode 06x06 Inescapable! There are already numerous fan videos popping up on YouTube for it, almost as many as there are for the entire Fitzsimmons history...which says a lot about the episode, but this is one of my favorites because it ties some flashback scenes from older episodes into it (although I wish it had some of the funnier moments with their "alter bad selves...

Back to Once and Stitching (well, sort of)

I am fully back to Once Upon A Time...after a week of watching every single horror movie left in Amazon Prime's arsenal of junk horror (and, believe me, it's a massive arsenal). I found where they have added "Wings"...one of my favorite shows from the 80's, and one of the few American sitcoms I ever watched. I tried to watch it, but I noticed that, in the middle of season 1, I was suddenly in season 2 and then back to season 1 again, only to jump back to the episodes of season 2 they had already played. I gave up and just decided that was my clue that it was just time to settle in and watch Once again. I have "Wings" on DVD anyway, so it's not like I can't watch it anytime I want, it was just kinda cool being able to stream it! Anyhoo, by Sunday afternoon, the stitchy bug struck again and, even though I didn't do much, I guess it's better than nothing! I don't usually take my Ritalin on the weekends and it's harder for me t...

Well...still no stitching and NOTHING left on the planet to watch!

I have literally watched EVERYTHING that Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu has to offer as well as most of YouTube! There is nothing left that I either have never seen before, or don't already own! I watched the third (and final) season of Jessica Jones this weekend. It ended kinda blaa for those series. I don't want to give spoilers for those who haven't seen it yet though, so I'll hold off on details for a while. I watched enough horror movies to make me question my sanity because ALL OF THEM ARE THE SAME! I watched tons of reaction vids on YouTube as well as more space docs and I am just worn out! I do think it's just time to head back to Once and start stitching again. I think I have just exhausted all other options. I know I didn't want to get back into that OCD loop again, but it's comforting, it helps me stitch, and seriously, what harm does it actually do? Just because a behavior is technically bad on paper, does that necessarily mean it's...

Coolest thing I've ever seen!

So, in my daily news check today, I ran across a news article about one of my favorite childhood actors (one of my first major actor crushes) and how he snapped back at a couple of Canadian politicians for using his grandfather's name to push their political agendas (article HERE ). I'm not on Twitter myself anymore, but I do read quite a few celebrity tweets on a daily basis (because some of them are actually intelligent people who think a lot like me and aren't afraid to say what's on their mind), so I decided to check out his Twitter page too and, as I read through, I discovered he has a blog , which I headed over to as well, just to see what he had to say. I have to admit, I was quite impressed! I know a lot of celebrities have blogs, and that in itself isn't such a great feat...some of them are good, some of them you can just tell their people do for them, but this one just snagged me right away (and not just because he STILL has "it" in my book). ...

Still searching for the "perfect" stitching show (and failing), but working on pissing off the world

I decided to do a Starz free preview this week (I can do numerous movie channel previews for 7 days through Amazon Prime, and I thought I had done most, apparently not). My Sister has been going on and on about "American Gods" and how much she thought I'd love that show, so I thought I'd give it a go. And warning, this post might be offensive to some. I don't mean it to be, I'm just being my usual blatant Asper self! Religion is one of those topics that you can't have an open conversation about because, despite their teachings to the contrary, it's a very selfish and personal thing and people get violently defensive about their religion. It's a behavior I just don't understand, but here we go anyway because I feel a rant coming on! One thing to know about me...I was Christened Catholic and raised Southern Baptist, so when I got up to a certain age (16 to be exact), and started questioning everything. My mother is the kind of person who ...

Just a quick Netflix rant followup

Just a quick funny story...this week I've been watching a documentary called "One Strange Rock" on Netflix...basically a science/astronomy documentary from Darren Aronofsky that talks about our planet, our solar system, and our universe from the view of astronauts who have spent time on the International Space Station (and, unfortunately, it is narrated by Will Smith, not a favorite of mine, but still). It's been an AMAZING show and now I'm looking for other new space documentaries to watch, not an easy feat since I've watched most of them or they are too old and out-dated. Thankfully, the recommendations are actually changing to reflect this (shock). But in the list of ACTUAL science shows, is a documentary on flat-earthers and how their beliefs are spreading into a real movement. Seriously? I expected the UFO documentaries to start next (because I think I've made it clear how I feel about flat-earthers and their "science"...seriously, WHAT...
