Happy Saturday!!!! It was my birthday this week (not gonna tell you the day!) so I am having a yard party to celebrate today. It will either be me and 4 kids and 6 adults, or me and a smaller number, but either way I’m gonna have root beer and potato chips and get my new flowers planted!
Things to talk about!
For my birthday, my housemates took me out to a rotary sushi place! It was so much sensory overload! Little plates on a circling track, and 6 TVs playing different channels, and everything is super brightly lit, and then I got to spin the wheel of discounts which just added to the confusion and excitement. My goodness!
I’m watching the HBO documentary “Burden of Proof” which is amazing and really makes me want to see an Indian movie version of the story, it would even be a great SRK role. Middle aged man is determined to find out what happened to his teenage sister over 3 decades ago. He is convinced that his abusive father killed her and his mother helped cover it up. He loves his mother very much and vice versa, but this belief is tearing them apart, he refuses to see her or let her see her grandchildren until she tells the police the truth. I would love to see a serious movie in India about this with SRK as a calm middle-aged father and husband who is quietly determined to be loyal to his missing sister even if it breaks him apart from his mother Jaya Bachchan. Plus there’s all these other interesting middle-aged witnesses who used to know the sister, so lots more places for cameos from Sonali Bendre and Sonakshi Sinha and everyone else we love.
For my outside party today, which will include activities like “help me plant this milkweed”, do I wear nice jeans and a top? Or overall shorts? Or overalls? Or a dress? Which is most practical?
