Shiny keeps up on nail care. She'll paint her nails any colors she wants (usually black or purple), file them, and generally take good care of them. They may not be 'sassy secretary' long, but she makes sure that they're long and sharp enough to look pretty and cause damage if needed...

Eddies big lift!!

SALLY:Well it’s a showstopper of an idea, Julie, I’ll give you that. But I just don’t believe it’s possible!

JULIE: No, it’s true! I swear, I swear!

POPPY: Ohhh, dear what’s happening my darlings is everything alright?

JULIE: Oh, hi, mama! I thought you said you were going to spend a quiet morning making costumes!

POPPY: [concern] How could anyone effectively do anything with you two talking so loudly at one another? I thought you two were fighting

SALLY: Our most clownarific marvelous Juliet here insists that the local porcelain mailman is enough of a powerhouse to lift every! Single! Neighbor! In the neighborhood!

POPPY: [With the tone of someone who’s heard this before] Oh, Julie, not this again…

JULIE: It’s true, it’s true! Popppyyy, you’ve seen it too!

POPPY: Now, Eddie is… Fairly capable what with carrying all his packages and such around, but--

JULIE: [Loudly Interrupting] So you agree!!

POPPY: I did not say-- Julie, we spoken of this Eddie is too fragile to be lifting our neighbors much less myself Barnaby or howdy

JULIE: [Triumphantly shouting] EDDIE! CAN! LIFT! A! HOOOUUUSSSEEE!!

POPPY: ohhh Julie

SALLY: Well, I simply can’t accept such a boast without proof.

JULIE: Oh, I can prove it! Look, here comes Eddie now! Watch this!

POPPY: What do you mean you can prove--

EDDIE: You got mai- oh dear

JULIE: [Overlapping him, running off in his direction] EDDIE, EDDIE, EDDIE, CATCH ME! QUICK! CATCH ME!

[Sound of packages hitting the ground and Eddie going “oof!” as he catches Julie.]

JULIE: TA-DAA!! See? See??

SALLY: díos mío!

POPPY: Julie Topsful! That is very dangerous

JULIE: oh come on-

POPPY: [in the deadpan of womanWho Is Sick of This Conversation] We’ve talked about this! He’s way to frail to be doing these stunts my dear

Eddie: wait- what?

SALLY: Although I love to see your shenanigans play out, Eddie is very fragile

EDDIE: what- hey! I’m perfectly capable of doing stuff on my own!

SALLY: fine! If your so capable then lift me come on [Snapping her fingers] Up, man! Up! Lift! Higher now-- with your knees-- all the way up-- there!!

EDDIE: [Overlapping with Sally’s directing] What, oh, uh-- yes ma’am!-- [Strained, lifting] oof-- here we go-- uhf-- alrighty-- hup! [A little “ta-da!!” jingle plays to signify Sally being fully lifted.]

SALLY: Hm. Passable, I suppose. But I’m still not convinced.

JULIE: POPPY NEXT! POPPY NEXT!!

EDDIE: [chipper, Man On The Job] All right then!

POPPY: Don’t you dare Eddie I don’t want you to crack!

EDDIE: [Tone exactly the same, backing off] wha oh come one I’m not helpless

JULIE: Oh, look! Wally, Franky [gasp] BARNABY AND HOWDY!!! THIS IS GREAT

Franky: What’s all the commotion about?

BARNABY: yeah we were in the middle of a joke contest

HOWDY: and I was winning!

WALLY: Hi, Julie. Hi, Sally. Hi, Poppy. Hi, Eddie. What are you--

JULIE: [interrupting Wally mid-greetings; he keeps going underneath her dialogue] EDDIE! LIFT WALLY INSTEAD!

EDDIE: Oh, okay! Up we go, little buddy- hup!

WALLY: Oh, I’m up here now.

SALLY: [Scoffs] That’s nothing! Wally weighs three apples soaking wet. Here, watch-- mailman, put him down.

EDDIE: Alrighty?

WALLY: I’m on the ground again.

SALLY: And hup!!

[Another “ta-da!!” to signify her lifting Wally.]

WALLY: Oh, and now I’m up again.

BARNABY: Life’s sure got its ups and downs, eh, pal? [less performer-y inflection] Uhh, but seriously, Jules, what’s this new game of yours?

JULIE: It’s not a game! I’m proving to Sally that Eddie can lift everyone in the neighborhood!

BARNABY: Ohhh, why didn’t you say so? Eddie, ya shoulda started with me. Seein’ as I’m such a tiny li’l pooch and all.

EDDIE: [voice wavering, seeing the writing on the wall here] Uhh BARNABY: I mean, it wouldn’t be much harder than liftin’ a couple envelopes, huh? Pickin’ up a li’l guy like me. It’s hardly even worth showin’ off at this point, when you’ve already managed guys so much bigger! But might as well just so you can say honestly you’ve managed the full collection, right?

FRANKY: woah! stop right there! Eddie is a porcelain doll he is much too fragile to be doing such things!

EDDIE: now wait a minute-

POPPY: he’s right my children Eddie is not like the rest of us

EDDIE: hey!

BARNABY: aaaah your right he is just glass ain’t he

HOWDY: yeaaah as entertaining as it might be we can’t have him breaking

EDDIE: [angry stomp] you know what…[grunt of effort] Hup-- all right-- little more--shoo--

[Big, forceful, weightlifter-style exhale as he gets Barnaby lifted; little “woah!” from Barnaby.]

JULIE: [overlapping others] YES!!

SALLY: [overlapping others, little applause] Oh!

FRANK: [overlapping others, accidentally being Genuinely Impressed a second] Oh my!

WALLY: [overlapping others] Oh, now Barnaby’s up there.

[One solid beat. Then, swoop! Before a big tumble Barnaby is swooped away by howdy while everyone else keeps Eddie steady]

BARNABY: Wow, uh-- I don’t even got a joke for this one. That was impressive, Ed. You all right?

EDDIE: [out of breath, audibly Not Just Fine also very upset] Oh, yep, j-just peachy, Barnaby. Thanks for askin’.

SALLY: Well I still say it’s only just passable but that was a big scare!anyhow [theatrical] Barnaby! Get over here! I’ll bet you I can lift you over my head!!

BARNABY: [in the tone of a man who wants to see how this plays out] Yeah, all right.

FRANK: [sternly] NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. I’m ending this right now! We almost got Eddie crushed!!

JULIE: Oooh, let’s go see if Eddie can lift Poppy and Howdy next! We can save Home for the big finish!!

SALLY: Not if I can lift them first!!

BARNABY: Well, I know what I’m doin’ with the rest of my day. C’mon, li’l buddy, let’s catch this show!

WALLY: Eddie’s going to lift up Home? That’s the most. We can go to Howdy’s together and Home can pick out his own trinket.

POPPY: children thats enough! That was incredibly dangerous we must all remember Eddie is porcelain hes fragile

Franky: he’s a bit helpless as well

EDDIE: [his expression looks sad] I’m not helpless…

[Long beat.]

FRANK: [Frank looks at him, rotating his head a bit as if to shake it.] your to fragile for these games Eddie

EDDIE: Wha? Huh?

FRANK: it’s true Mr.Dearest we can’t have you breaking truly

EDDIE: I’m not!- [he sighs defeated] whatever here’s your mail julie..[he hands Julie a box walking away]

The Mirror's Eye

I don’t recognize the eyes of the womanWho stares from the mirror’s cold glassAn almost imperceptible changeThere, then gone, like a shadow’s soft pass My face, with the scar beneath my right eyeAnd wrinkles that mark the passage of timeThe same smirk, shoulders still too thinBut the absence in my reflection feels like a crime Her hair is shorter, curlier, and a cooler shadeLips fuller, cheeks…

Kafka on the Beach

I cannot imagine him on a beach.."Kafka on the Beach" #poem

I cannot imagine him on a beach,in a bathing suit, under an umbrella.He seems always on shore, in Prague,sitting at a desk writing another storyor writing a letter to a womanwho would never answer or marry him.Though, perhaps, I can see him walkingat the very edge of an oceancontemplating all of it and knowing none –a horizon that is not the end.

I Need To Write

I need to write twenty poemsI don’t care if they are good-If they make you cry-or vomit like a womanwho does not yet know she is a mother. I need to write twenty poemsmaybe about how it smells likeit’s going to rain outside, or aboutthe dog’s rusty chain-as I carry the groceries in from the car. I need to write twenty poemsto market, to market to-read a fat poem.Not twenty words, not twenty…

[vatt-world]

You understand? You understand? No, you don't

understand. You think just because you have a Ph.D. and a

framed certificate on the wall, that you magically know what I'm

feeling? What a load of crap. You've just doing your job --

making your money. You probably never cared about anyone in

your life. Well I do. I care too much. That's why I'm going crazy.

I feel like I'm losing my mind. Every time I see a womanwho

even slightly resembles my mom, I swear she's gonna turn

around and it will be her. Alive, here, now, smiling at me. But it

never is. I keep waking up in the middle of the night, screaming,

all drenched in sweat. Yesterday, I put my fist through the

window and shattered it into pieces. my mom would take me to movies , plays..she was a brown actor but she wanted me go one step further and just be a actor.My mom is dead. She's dead,

and I can't even cry. Cause if I do, it'll mean I accept, really

accept, that she's gone forever. I don't want to do that. I can't do

it. Can you understand that? I can't let my mom be gone.

Aaron Carter had a homeless living in his house

Aaron Carter had a homeless living in his house

Since Aaron Carter died, various details of his sudden death have come to light. One of them is the woman who was in his house at the time it became known that something was wrong with him. The Los Angeles police revealed that it was a homeless, a homeless womanwho had been living in the singer’s house for between two and three weeks in Lancaster. Apparently at some point Aaron Carter left home…

So last year I got put in three classes that conflicted because our school is incapable of reading emails.

And now, I find out I've been moved classes (which is fine, maybe I'll actually have a functioning timetable this year). However, I have been removed from my old bio class and now cant access five months of notes.... And I'm not in the new class so I cant get to theirs either...

Rest of 2021 Watch List

With only six and a half months left of 2021, it’s time to get serious about my drama watching habits. I’m so behind and there are several things that are (supposed to be) coming out in the later part of the year. So, here is my list of things that I want to start/am interested in. Granted, some of these things may change as more information comes out about them. Or I may just decide not to watch them. And some may get pushed back into 2022. 

Already Aired:

Lucifer: season 5b (USA) - Though the first half of season five left us on a cliffhanger, I just cannot seem to sit myself down to finish out the season. It may be the mixed reactions of long time fans or the knowledge that season six is the last, either way, I’m having a hard time getting back into the show. 

Youth of May: (South Korea) - This romantic, moody, slice-of-life drama. I was waiting for it.The ending is going to break my heart, so I have to be ready for it. I hear the preformances are amazing, but I know I’ll be crying. 

Word of Honor: (China) - Everything I’ve heard about this drama makes it sound amazing. And while I know things will be heartbreaking - I just need to prepare. 

Currently Airing:

Doom at Your Service: (South Korea) - I watched the first four episodes (I think?), but I am waiting to binge it after it ends. Why? The first few episodes were so good, I want to be able to watch it all at once. 

The Penthouse: War in Life, Season 3: (South Korea) - I was super excited for this one...then I heard about Logan’s “brother” and, uh...maybe I’ll just watch the clips of my favorites?

Mad for Each Other: (South Korea) - I know very little about this drama, but it looks amazing and I’m hearing good things. 

Mine: (South Korea) - So, it sounds like two daughter-in-laws of a rich family work together to get what they want. It looks good.

My Roomate is a Gumiho: (South Korea) - It just looks fluffy and adorable. And I need that. 

Coming Soon:

June:

Ancient Love Poetry: (China) - It just sounds sweet and sad and I love a good Chinese drama that will make me smile and eat up the angst.

Nevertheless: (South Korea) - Honestly? The Netflix trailer looked interesting. 

July:

The New Version of the Condor Heroes: (China) - I love this story and the 2014 one was a hotmess. The promo pictures look good, though they were released in 2018. Rumor is the drama has been shelved, but we’ll see what happens. 

The Devil Judge: (South Korea) - You have Ji Sung staring in a dystopian drama, where he is the as the head judge of the highest court in the land. The court has become a TV reality show, with viewers invited to participate in a live. The one person looking to take him down is Kim Min Jung as the director of a corporate social responsibility foundation. And then you have two childhood friends: Park Jin Young and Park Gyu Young, idealist who want to make their world better. I look forward to Ji Sung and Kim Min Jung battling it out, and maybe corrupting the idealist cop and younger judge.

Boku no Satsui ga Koi wo Shita: (Japan) - This one may not ever get English subtitles, as Japanese dramas aren’t really subbed anymore...however, the story sounds amazing. A young man finds out his dead foster-father was a professional killer and this young man decides to take up the “family business” to avenge for the father.  The young man approaches a womanwho is his assassination target. Despite his skill as a hitman, he can’t ever kill her, not matter how hard he tries. Instead, he ends up protecting her and the two fall  in love. This could go so many places and I want to see it.

August:

Red Sky: (South Korea) - A beautiful and genius painter meets a blind officer in charge of astronomy, geography, art of divination, and meteorology. The two fall in love. And it’s marked as a “historical romantic fantasy”? Yes, please! 

October:

The Red-Stained Sleeve Cuff: (South Korea) - The story of Sung Deok Im, a court lady.  She catches the eye of Crown Prince Lee San. Once the prince becomes king, he wants Sung Deok Im to become his concubine, but she refuses. Yet, Sung Deok Im becomes the concubine of King Jeongjo. This could be angsty. Also, it stars Lee Jun Ho (who you may remember from Just Between Lovers) and Lee Se Young (who always brings it). 

December: (or 2022...?)

Twenty-Five Twenty-One (South Korea) - The love story of two people, who have really bad-timing, told over the period of four years. Personally, I’m hoping for a poignant human drama ala Just Between Lovers or Come And Hug Me. (Minus death and murders),

Return: (South Korea) - This is literally described as: “A fantasy drama about the stories of young magicians who deal with heavenly spirits.” It will be on tvN, which usually has really solid dramas. There is a cast of talented up-and-comers: Lee Jae Wook, Arin, Park Hae Eun, and Hwang Min Hyun. There are also some talented vets in the cast: Yoo Joon Sang, Oh Na Ra, and Joo Sang Wook. It’s beingdirected by Park Joon Hwa Everything looks great on paper. It’s just - the drama will be written by the Hong Sisters. During my early days of Kdrama viewing (way back in the mid 2010s), these ladies wrote some of my favorites. And while I did love Hotel de Luna and A Korean Odyssey - it has become very clear over the years that these writers don’t do well during the second halves of their dramas and they aren’t always great at endings.

Snowdrop (South Korea) -  It takes place in 1987, and follows students at a prestigious university in Seoul. It will be written by Yoo Hyun Mi, who wrote SKY Castle and The Bridal Mask. I’m looking forward to it, even though I heard there was pushback (which has resulted in the show airdate being moved back a couple of times) from the South Korean citizens'  who believe that the drama distorts facts related to the pro-democracy movement of the 1980s in favour of the authoritarian regime. This was based on an incomplete version of the plotline that had been leaked online, which describes one character as a “spy” and another lead as working for the NSP. We’ll see

At Some Point in 2021/early 2022...?:

The Umbrelllla Academy, Season Three
