2018 Movie #4: The Big Sick

2018 Movie #4: The Big Sick

Three cheers to the best "awards movie" I've seen thus far that has DELIVERED. Guys...this is two movies in a row that I've really, really enjoyed! If you haven't yet seen The Big Sick, get on your amazon prime account and watch it! I'm not sure it's exactly...

2018 Movie #3: Hidden Figures

2018 Movie #3: Hidden Figures

This one was an awards contender LAST year, but I never got around to see it...well, I'm glad I did this year! I found this movie to be surprisingly moving. I honestly wasn't expecting it...but I guess I'm a sucker for stories about people receiving recognition...

Day 1,536: Quicks

Day 1,536: Quicks

Quick one tonight because it's past midnight again. We watched the rest of Disjointed part 2, the second set of 10 episodes, and it's seriously really, really good you guys. Watch it. I promise you, you will enjoy. Did work for Study.com. Watched the Warriors beat the...

Day 1,535: Hooman Again

Day 1,535: Hooman Again

Oh, happy day...I felt better today! The fever is gone...for me. It is decidedly not gone for the Ho 🙁 She's where I was three days ago, or so. The only thing I can hope for her is that her immune system works faster than mine did. It's weird getting decently sick,...

Day 1,534: Sick as dogs

Day 1,534: Sick as dogs

Sick as dogs. Don't know where that phrase came from...not sure I actually care to know, now that I really think about it. It's probably something terrible 😛 Have you ever noticed that about old turns of phrase? How so many of them are, like, super racist or just...

Day 1,533: The Plague!

Day 1,533: The Plague!

We're dropping like flies over here at the Ho-Heinichen household! The Ho...now has the sickness. Poor thing. She was all bundled up on the couch actually shivering with the chills. My fever never got quite that bad, but hers has. Sigh. She was actually doing some...

Day 1,532: Still Sick

Day 1,532: Still Sick

It rained today in LA for the first time, really, this winter. Rained all day pretty much, and there's more rain in the forecast. I always love it when it rains. Makes me think of home in NorCal, where it basically rains every day from November through April. Still on...

Day 1,531: Quick One

Day 1,531: Quick One

Making this one quick. It's 1am because my whole sleep sched is off due to the sickness. I read today, which was nice. I haven't in a couple months because I'd been so focused on writing. I shouldn't ever stop doing stuff like that because of writing...it's not a...

2018 Movie #2: The Shape of Water

2018 Movie #2: The Shape of Water

Of Guillermo Del Toro, I will say this: he is a maker of *films*. He doesn't just make movies, he always has an eye to doing something artistic, meaningful, and unique. He has what those of us in the writing business would call a "voice." The Shape of Water didn't hit...

Day 1,530: Barf

Day 1,530: Barf

Barf. Sick. AGAIN. Legitimately, too. Uuuuggghhh. Fever spells today and everything. But, good news, I'll live. I know you were worried 😛 I feel remarkably chill about this bout of the sickness. I'm not gonna stress over it, just let it pass, like all colds do. I'll...
