When you try to watch too many series at once......

 I am currently working my way through Feels Good to Die, My Lovely Liar, and Vincenzo. Yes, I know it may seem like a lot but I got it. In fact, I am almost done with one of the series. 

Feels Good to Die is a workplace Rom-com involving time loops. I like the way they actually do progress only to time loop each time our female lead's boss dies. You can almost feel her frustration. 

My Lovely Liar is about a woman who is a living lie detector and a man falsely accused of murder. The drama, the comedy, the cutesty romance, the mystery......... Cause you know, murder. Also the music here is so incredible. Hwang Min-hyun (formerly of Nu'Est) is our male lead and let me tell you, his jazz piano scenes are sublime. I want a recording.

And last but most definitely not least, Vincenzo. He is a Korean - Italian consigliere who is just trying to get his 15 tons of gold back from its hiding spot. When a corrupt company illegally purchases the building where his money is stashed, he finds himself with no other choice but to take them on using mafia tactics. It's a crime drama with a hefty dose of dark comedy. Not my usual type of show, but I'm liking it. I actually think my dad would love this show. So I will probably recommend it soon to him.

As always, feel free to tell me what you think below. Any one out there got a k drama suggestion for me?

We're getting a new deck!

 Our new landlord recently decided to approve a new deck and fence for us. The old deck was deteriorating and was a concern. I always said a little prayer before stepping on it. The fence had been damaged by years worth of storms and broken tree branches. We had a few gaps and the whole thing was doing a Leaning Tower of Piza impression.

Workers have already ripped the deck and fence down. Tomorrow, building should start. Honestly, I was a little emotional seeing the old deck go. I spent what felt like a whole summer drying clothes on it when our dryer went on strike.

Oh, funny thing about that! Our dryer chose now to go on strike again. Like, you couldn't wait until we got the new deck built? You had to stop working now!?!!?! It's a headache and a half.

So while we wait for the new deck, we got to keep the Littles from gravitating to the back door as it is currently a Two to Three foot drop. And as much as I love my normally bright younger siblings, they do some dumb stuff in the name of fun. I don't even want to imagine what ideas they might come up with.

Loveless the band, not my relationship status

Loveless is an alternative Rock Duo from LA formed in 2020. Multi-instrumentalist Dylan Tirapelli-Jamail and vocalist Julian Comeau are who make up this incredible duo. They have collaborated with Citizen Soldier on their song "Worst in Me". I featured it in a post a little while ago. I stumbled upon them when I got stuck in a Elly Duhé 'Middle of the Night' cover wormhole. It is safe to say they pulled me out of one wormhole and into another.

Their sound is a mix of Emo/Punk/Pop/Rock. I know that it sounds like that won't work but trust me, it does. Dylan makes me wish I was talented when it came to instruments and Julian is on my list of #VocalGoals. The way he manages to sound gritty and smooth is a skill I want to figure out.  *sigh*

Below are a few of my favorites from them.

I hope you all enjoy that. You know, even as I'm writing this post, I'm listening to Loveless. Feel free to leave your thoughts below.

Assistant to the Villain partial Audiobook review

 I am currently going through a bit of a "Villain" phase fiction wise. For some reason, I am finding myself drawn towards characters that are most often vilified and hated. Probably because I enjoy seeing all the nuances that went into such a complex creation. That was most likely why I immediately got Assistant to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer. 

I am only halfway through it. The blurb said it was like 'Once Upon a Time' meets the 'The Office'. This was not an exaggeration. I was cracking up like a loon as I cooked dinner while listening. Blurb below:

ASSISTANT WANTED: Notorious, high-ranking villain seeks loyal, levelheaded assistant for unspecified office duties, supporting staff for random mayhem, terror, and other Dark Things In General. Discretion a must. Excellent benefits.

With ailing family to support, Evie Sage’s employment status isn’t just important, it’s vital. So when a mishap with Rennedawn’s most infamous Villain results in a job offer—naturally, she says yes. No job is perfect, of course, but even less so when you develop a teeny crush on your terrifying, temperamental, and undeniably hot boss. Don’t find evil so attractive, Evie.
But just when she’s getting used to severed heads suspended from the ceiling and the odd squish of an errant eyeball beneath her heel, Evie suspects this dungeon has a huge rat…and not just the literal kind. Because something rotten is growing in the kingdom of Rennedawn, and someone wants to take the Villain—and his entire nefarious empire—out.
Now Evie must not only resist drooling over her boss but also figure out exactly who is sabotaging his work…and ensure he makes them pay.
After all, a good job is hard to find.

Yeah, if you're looking for some serious chuckle material, look no further. Feel free to tell me you're thoughts about Assistant to the Villain below.

P.S. I finished it! It is definitely worth the listen (or read, if you prefer). Let it be noted that this tale ends in a cliffhanger. Part two come out fall of 2024. Yes, I was bummed out. You would be too. I want to know what will happen next.

When you go down wormholes.......

 There is such a thing as a YouTube wormhole. Once you enter, it may be hours or days before you come back to the real world. I am prone to this pitfall.

Studio Choom is one of my wormholes. The moment I watch the latest choreo, I suddenly find myself watching past videos and from there looking at all the latest choreography from other dancers. 

Another wormhole of mine is villain music. You know those playlists that some people make that are full of wonderful songs that seem to perfectly fit your character's backstory. Well this I one weakness of mine. I can spend hours looking into songs that fit the feel.I'm looking for.

Of any of you have wormholes that suck you in, tell me about it below. Or just say hi. Up to you.

Plans........

 It has come to my notice that 128 GB may be to little to hold every movie my dad wants. He needs an upgrade. And yes, I will be paying for it. Having his data scattered causes loads of mental stress. I'm paranoid that I might somehow lose his stuff and how would I explain it?

I am also sorry I forgot to post on time this week. It was another busy week and I forgot until now. I will try to be on time next week. As always, fell free to leave a message below.

Eric Nam's new album releases Sep.8th

 As some may know, Eric Nam is on my playlist. So when I heard that he had a new album coming out, I was beyond excited. I was ecstatic. Getting to hear more of Eric Nam's voice is wonderful. Sidenote: My autocorrect hates his last name. It kept changing it to Ham or Man.

So far, he has released to two music videos for songs that will be on the album. Please check put below.

Does it pass the vibe check? I think so. Also, sorry for the late post. Life got in the way. As always, feel free to leave a comment below.
