Quarantine Post #42: Goldberg’s Bagel Company & Deli
As you guys know by now, I spent my early childhood up north. NYC, Massachusetts and the like. I can remember my mother buying fried shrimp for us to eat on the bus when I was about 2 or 3. Good times. My family and I eventually moved to the south… where we have been […]

Quarantine Post #40: M. Night Shyamalan. The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Split & Glass
I have a love/hate relationship with M. Night Shyamalan and his movies. Some of them I love… some of them I hated… (Avatar anyone?) This post is about some of the movies I loved. After a few movies, he became known for his twist endings. His movies were some of the first that I watched… […]

Quarantine Post #39: High Speed Rail Anyone?
When you have been stuck at home for over a year, you find the most random things to read about online. Did I ever think that I would be that passionate or intrigued about mass/public transit? Absolutely not. I ended up visiting Denver for work about 2 years ago and I loved it. Mostly because […]

Quarantine Post #38: Netflix’s Black TV Shows
Thanks to Netflix, I have been able to watch some of the black shows that I had not watched as a kid. There was a time that I wasn’t as into watching tv and now that I am older I am going to say that I totally missed out. Being at home since March 2020 […]

Quarantine Post #37: The Irregular at Magic High School
Have you guys ever watched a show based on one character? Well that is what brought me here. One of the great things that has happened this year is the release of season 2. It is releasing week to week which I am sort of bummed about because I really would love to sit and […]

Quarantine Post #36: Goosebumps
Prior to the phenomena that is Harry Potter took over my life, it was hard to get me to read as a kid. My mother picked things and while I read them… it really didn’t hold my attention. At 2 years old, I was watching Tales from the Crypt with my mother… Good Times. So […]

Quarantine Post #35: Scooby Doo… I want a talking dog
Having nephews and a niece makes for fun times when they introduce me to things they love that are new to them but not me. So far it has been Power Rangers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Ducktails. Mostly because Ducktails just got a reboot. It is pretty good actually. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has […]

Quarantine Post #34 – Samurai Champloo
So as I do all things slowly and well after other people… I watched Samurai Champloo years after it debuted. But it was like a 2 day sit down because I love the show. Of course it was the first thing that was recommended to me when I decided to get back into anime. And […]

Quarantine Post #33 – Ip Man
Usually when I am taking a watch break from anime, I am usually watching something on Hulu or Prime Video. I have always paid for Netflix but I don’t normally watch it that often. They probably get a kick out of customers like me who pay their $8.99 month after month and don’t watch for […]

Quarantine Post #32: National Novel Writing Month- November (NaNoWriMo)
So I have not been writing blog posts lately because I have been challenged to take part in NaNoWriMo. My friends and I are avid readers but some of the issues we discussed were that there are not a lot of characters that accurately reflect us. Especially within romantic genre. I do a lot of […]

Quarantine Post #31: Summer and Winter Olympics and X-Games
There has been a lot of time to sit back on my haunches and reflect on my life as well as reconnect with some of the things I used to love. That tends to happen when you have been working from home for 8 months. I will say that I enjoy strolling back down memory […]

Quarantine Posts #29: The Mighty Ducks
Thank goodness for Disney Plus. One of the great streaming services in my house because it gives something for my niece and nephew to watch. Sometimes at the same time. Thank goodness it can be upon several screens. (All things Spiderman for him… and all the princesses for her. Yes they choose what they want […]

Quarantine Post #28: 2017 Universal Studios / Volcano Bay Trip
In my previous posts, I talked about the trips I wanted to go on as a kid. There were a lot of us and things that other people got to do seemed out of our reach. It was something that I got used to over the years. But now that I have nieces and nephews […]

Quarantine Post #27: Assassination Classroom
Now here is an anime that I didn’t know would affect me as much as it actually did. You ever watch a show that states out the outset the premise of the show… and when that happens you’re still heartbroken even though you knew it was coming. Yeah that was me. By the end, I […]

Quarantine Post #26: Noragami
I know I am supposed to be doing more anime posts. During my quarantine I have been trying my hand at many new things but I am back to anime/manga. Noragami. When my old anime pal suggested it, I wasn’t 1000% percent sure that I would like it. Although, I am not sure why. He […]

Quarantine Post #25: Travel Destinations Bucket List (Canada Edition)
Travel will always be something I want to do. In this case, Leah bought it up in passing and this is something I look forward to as soon as the border opens up. Leah has been to Toronto before but for some reason or another I so what to see that city. (Poor Leah.) She […]

Quarantine Post #24: Not the Girl You Marry
I am back with another book review. Needless to say, Audible has gotten me out of my rut and it actually makes some great suggestions for me. I am a bit behind in reviewing this one because I originally did not know how I felt about it. I have had this saved in drafts for […]

Quarantine Post #23: Food Wars/ Shokugeki No Sōma
It has been a while since I spoke about anime or manga. So let me get back to that. I have recently gotten into Food Wars. It is my love of the Food Network and anime/manga rolled into one. Culinary Battle shonen. (It gets a lot of flack from meatheads but I enjoy whooping ass […]

Quarantine Post #22: Bucket List Travel List (Japan Edition)
I think that in the back of most anime fans minds, they long to visit Japan. There is a lot of history and great food. There is no downside. I have always thought there is nothing better than seeing the world and how other people live in it. There is a lot to do in […]

Quarantine Post #21: Travel Destination Bucket List (China Edition)
So I am back for another bucket list travel edition. I have given serious thought to the different countries I will be traveling to when we are given the green light to move about the world again. My last post was about traipsing all around Great Britain… well this one will be all about my […]

Quarantine Post #20: Muffin Top by Avery Flynn (The Hartigans Book #2)
Alright, I figured that I need to add this book to my postings since I have read it a few times now. (Once with my mother.) She and I never like the same things so shout out to Avery Flynn again for something else that I can debate with her about. If you have been […]

Quarantine Post #19: Bucket List Activities
I have had plenty of time to come up with more things to add to my bucket list. Not just because I have been quarantining for 6 months… (Who thought is was going to be that long? Ugh!) When I was younger, money was tighter so there was a lot that I wanted to do […]

Quarantine Post #18: House M.D.
My love of Sherlock Holmes led me to a very particular medical drama. Prior to watching House, I wasn’t a fan of the genre. I didn’t watch E.R. or Grey’s Anatomy and still haven’t. In fact, I could argue that House left me unable to watch any other medical dramas in the future. I will […]
