Alright y'all please go watch this show. It's funny and cute and sad and oh so true all at the same time. Props to Hulu because they did an outstanding job with this series. This show spoke to me on so many levels it is insane.

For basically my whole life I've been bigger. Obviously, now that I'm working out and watching what I eat I'm losing weight and inches month by month. Even after I lose the weight I want to lose, I will still have a fuller figure and I'm OK with that. I think I was just naturally born with a bigger frame and curves. I will always have them.

Watching this show was honestly like watching my life unfold before my eyes. In the show, Aidy Bryant's character, Annie, is a fun loving, smart and funny young woman. She struggles with seeing her self-worth so despite not seeing her self-worth she dates and sleeps with men who don't treat her right. Hello, Palmer, you went through that phase 3 years ago.

In the show, she is not trying to change her body but she is trying to change her life. Her progression shows her becoming more confident than ever and that speaks levels to me. Now that I am finally becoming the confident women I always wanted to be, I binged the whole show in 24 hours (oops, not sorry). Seriously though, If you've ever been remotely having thoughts like this or you just need a reminder that you're beautiful in every way and you're smart and funny and awesome go binge this series!

At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
