Survivor San Juan del Sur - Blood vs. Water - What, Drew's Clever Plan didn't pan out? Shocking! And it was so well thought out, too... lol!

Wow, I canny believe we're at Season 29 of Survivor - amazing! lol!  Where did the time go?? So this is yet another Blood vs. Water, which, typically, I don't really like - I get fed up with seeing the same people, over and over - bleah, give us all new people...was very unhappy to see the 'Tweenies' - ugh, so loud and squeaky - but now that one of them is gone, things are much better...

Oh, here's a pic of the remaining 'Tweenie' - and Drew, the ludicroulsy arrogant guy who was voted out, tonight, after throwing the competition - what an idiot... he's pretty stupid... very pretty, and really, really stooopid.... but, he got his time on TV, sooo, you know, still good! lol!

I am a huuge Survivor fan, though - and I thank you if you've been reading me for years - lol!  Tank youse! Me appreciates you : )  I would never miss survivor, even if it IS full of people we already know, and blood vs. water... ick. I like when everyone arrives on the island, or some God-forsaken place, and romance abounds - now, that I like! haha! I loves me a little showmance!  Look at Rob and Amber, and now they have this whole very sweet little family - how amazing is that? Thanks, Survivor, for the fun romances!

And here's a little eye-candy for da ladies (and some gents - lol!) - ah' loves me a li'l Jeff Probst! Man, he never changes... someone should look into that DNA, see what's going on, there - hahaha!

So has been a little weird on survivor, already, and a little tricky to write about, since, you know, you've prolly noticed, too, who has been voted out, first... hmmm. But I cannot stand when someone is soo arrogant, they leave with an Idol in their pocket. How stooopid is that? Grrrr...they deserve everything they get, for that level of arrogance... and it's not like there won't be another Idol - have they never watched Survivor, before? But I'm happy when someone is voted out who doesn't need the money - not completely sure why that bothers me so much, but I love to see someone win Survivor, or any other game, who really needs the money - those are the people I root for - and the funny ones, and the nice ones, and the fair ones... buuut, that said, the crazy ones are fun to watch - those little loooonies are always up to something crazy - makes the game a lot of fun...

Otay, need more tea!  Stay safe - are these some crazy days where you're all of a sudden thinking about your health all the time?? Geesh!  So, stay safe, have fun, and have yourself a lovely wee treat!  See you, soon!  Your Survivor Buddy, Ailsa : )

The Rosie Project, by Graeme Simsion.  Oh, man, you're in for such a treat!

Yahooo, The Rosie Effect just came out, and I've just finished it, and can't stop smiling - it is AMAZING, a phenomenal continuation of Don Tillman's life with his new wife, Rosie...oh, man, what a great read!!  You are gonna LOVE it, for sures!

My beautiful, loving, caring, brilliantly funny daughter, Cara, got me a copy of The Rosie Effect, yesterday - and a copy for herself and her wonderful fiance...and I thought, initially, I could so easily have read their copy, when they were done, but my lovely Cara said that no, she really loved the author, Graeme Simsion, and really wanted to support him in every possible way, and so she bought two copies - how incredibly sweet is that?

So I was up all last night, reading The Rosie Effect - is soo good, I had to force myself to put the book down, and go to bed - so I finally put the book down at 3:37am...lol!  and then I got up, today (errrr, not very early, totally justified but, one, it's my own life, I'll get up when me wants to, right? It's my mother's voice in my head that tries to shame me into getting up early - hahaha!  That only works when she's in the same house as me - lol!  And, two, I was totally up really late, reading something really important, sooo, thus the sleep in day? lol!  And then I had a quick piece of pizza, started reading, got up to refill my tea cup (and have some apple pie - all lovely and cold, like I like it!), then straight back to my fantastic book, The Rosie Effect - wow, you feel like you've just gone on the most amazing journey through a year in Don's life.... oh, man, I can't recommend this book highly enough - go get it, or order it through Amazon - oh, and if you haven't read The Rosie Project, yet, grab that one up, too, and read the Rosie Project, first, and then The Rosie Effect - oh, what a treat for you!!

Oh, so sweet! And so smart!  Am I saying enough to let you know how much I love the Rosie Effect? These books are gonna make GREAT movies - oh, I'll link this page back to my first page on The Rosie Project, so you can see who I thought would be great to play Don, Rosie and Gene in the movie version of The Rosie Project and The Rosie Effect.

Graeme Simsion, the author of The Rosie Project, and the sequel, The Rosie Effect, is such an incredibly brilliant author. We were soo lucky, earlier in the summer - we got to 'talk' with Graeme Simsion on this Twitter chat thing that they had - was pretty funny, since although I have quite a few Twitter Followers, and I really like Twitter, I realy did not know how that whole thing worked, so it took a minute for me to figure that out, and end up on the same Twitter page as everyone else - haha!   But it was soo much fun to feel a real 'live' connection to such an amazing author. Graeme Simsion is, by far, one of the best authors I've ever read, and if you only know me a weeeee bit, you'll know I'm an avid reader, and always have been ...

And I don't think this book, #TheRosieProject, or it's sequel, #TheRosieEffect, are necessarily all about #Autism or #Aspergers, they are just a part of Don's wonderful and delightful personality, just the way he is, and I loove that approach. #GraemeSimsion's books are for everyone, but if you happen to have a special space in your heart for some really lovely, really special people, these books will be even more meaningful and precious to you, as they were for me : )




Oh, boy, I cannot wait for everyone to read Graeme Simsion's, The Rosie Project, and The Rosie Effect.

Okay, it's been hours and hours of living precariously through Don's life, so I have to go get something to eat - am leaning toward a lovely (and healthy, I'm assuming) piece of German Chocolate Cake - no tell Don! hahahaha!  You're gonna love the books!  Your Little Reader Buddy, Ailsa : )

#BB16 - Derrick Wins Big Brother 16!! And Cutie Cody, he got a big ol' pile o' cashola, too! Yippee!! : >

#BB16 - Yahoo, Derrick Wins It All! And Cody wins a big ol' pile o' cash, too!  Yippee, Derrick and Cody are both so worthy of the money - sooo great!!

I loved the endie bit, right at the very end of the taping, when Derrick's little family came up on the stage, and Derrick's little girl started to clap - soo cute! This money is life-changing for Derrick and his family - wow, I love to see that sort of thing... makes you feel great!

Oh, man, I was so relieved when it ended up being Cody and Derrick at the very end, for the Final Two. They were both so deserving, playing a great game - and I think it was really lucky for Cody that he won the final HOH competition, since it's really hard to say whether Derrick might have actually brought Victoria to the Final Two, but I think that could so easily have backfired on him, and I can only hope that Derrick would have brought Cody, but so great that the decision was Cody's - what a good guy. Derrick and Cody - both great guys!

Here's a little more eye candy for you, since we're not sure how long it'll be before we get to see Cody, again, but I hope Cody finds amazing opportunities out there for him, since he's such a great guy...a hard worker, so loyal, very kind. And very good at keeping his mouth shut, when he needs to - lol!  That's a good skill! lol!

So there's our Final 3 in the Big Brother house - wow, 97 days - that's a long time, and no fighting - really, that's pretty much miraculous, right? It's hard to get that many people together, and stay that calm and cheery.  Good for them. 

So Donny won the Favorite Player - you know, I really liked Donny soo much, most of the way through the game, and then, it seemed like he took a turn, and didn't seem quite as nice...did anyone else feel like that?  Interesting that Donny didn't vote for Derrick... I think Donny seemed to be so mad about Frankie and Derrick doing the Big Brother play, which I thought was really funny, and was so surprised they didn't win any money for that mission, but that seemed to be the turning point for Donny, but I'm sure he's very nice and kind.  I thought, for sure, that Frankie, Zach or Nicole, or Caleb, Beastmode Cowboy, would have won the Favorite Player...I like when there are lots of Big Prizes handed out - but that's just me - I love to see people win great things - it's great for them, and you never know how that can change their lives... so I hope this Big Brother experience propels every one of the Big Brother House Guests onto something amazing in their future : )  And I hope you have THE most amazing future, too!! : )  Big Brother Hugs! That was a really great Big Brother Season!! Yahoo, The Good Guys Won!!  Yippee!! Ailsa : )
