Friday Five

1. After 4 shows at 54 Below over the last year and just as many awkward encounters there, I've decided that it's my very favorite concert venue.  I'm planning to avoid all other venues now in favor of this beautiful supper club : )  So fun!

2. Usually Melissa McCarthy doesn't really make me laugh.  I'm sure she's a lovely person, but her brand of comedy isn't my thing. However, when does "Spicey", she makes me howl with laughter.  It cracks me up!  So when I saw that she was "casually driving around Midtown on a motorized podium dressed as Spicey" I could not stop laughing.  Every time I see the little Instagram video, I start giggling.  

3. I may sound like a broken record, but I've told everyone I know to watch the show Speechless because I'm just in awe of it.  It's funny and sweet and most of all it handles disabilities respectfully.  But they also realize that living with loved ones with issues is just a part of everyday life.  Everything about this show is perfect and to see it get a second season, was such a happy surprise.  It was the only new show I was worried about.  None of the others have the same heart so I'm so happy that it'll be around for at least another year - though I have a suspicion it might be a bit longer.

4. Netflix is doing a 10 episode prequel of The Dark Crystal!! This is not a drill, people!  I cannot wait to have more Froudian creatures on my screens.  Now, once this show amazes and astounds, they'll just have to do a follow-up to Labyrinth, right?

5. Now that I've got the AC on and it's working well, I can finally say that I'm happy to see the sunshine and the super hot temps back again in Maryland.  I hate the winter, and the 45 degree "spring" days were not my cup of tea.  I'm liking the 80-90 degree days because it means summer is just around the corner.  Thank goodness for that!
