Frozen 2 (November 22) I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS MOVIE. This one and Avengers: Endgame are the two movies I've been most excited for this year. I loved Frozen. It was so good. I don't remember exactly, but I think I might have cried for the entire end of that movie. Even my dad… Continue reading Two upcoming movies that I am excited for
Super long non-fiction books
For the past three years, I've read one super long non-fiction book every year. I wouldn't call it a tradition yet because I feel like it takes a solid ten years for something to become a tradition, but it's at least in its toddler stage. (A toddler tradition!) In 2016, I read Team of Rivals;… Continue reading Super long non-fiction books
Four great short documentaries
For Christmas last year, I asked for a subscription to the New York Times. One of my favorite things-maybe the favorite thing-about being a subscriber is the Op-docs.

Saying that makes me want to do some quick calculations and figure… Continue reading Three more podcast recommendations
If you’re needing more funny people in your life
Ryan Higa (nigahiga) and HigaTV // a guy with a Youtube channel messing around with his friends Ryan Higa is my favorite Youtuber. His videos are insanely creative and detailed. But then he has a second channel, HigaTV, and that channel is a different world. On that one, he and his team (aka his friends)… Continue reading If you’re needing more funny people in your life
A short and tentative to be read list (ft. new fall releases!)
This list only has three books on it right now because as I'm writing this, ModernMrs.Darcy (aka the book-world authority I look towards for this type of information) still hasn't posted a guide to 2019 fall releases yet. As soon as that drops, I am sure this list will expand. And it's a tentative list… Continue reading A short and tentative to be read list (ft. new fall releases!)
