All (or some) About Amy
Added 2022-10-03 05:23:38 +0000 UTCHey everyone! I have been buried in two back-to-back book edits basically from June until 9:00 on Friday night. I. Am. SPENT. But, that means I can breathe again and hang with y'all much more than I've been able to, and that fills my bucket so much! So, I found one of those questionnaire thingies that's floated around Facebook a few million times and thought that would be fun way to say "Hi, everyone! Here's a 'lil bit more about me!" If you have any questions about the list, want to commiserate about something on the list (or want to ask me something not on the list, like how many vacuums I own), toss it into the comments!

Thanks for the shout-out Amy!!

2022-10-17 15:08:26 +0000 UTCIt's so fun to see where everyone's tastes lie. I have a problematic love for BoF, but I don't rewatch. I just loved it at the time, mostly because I had just discovered Lee Min-ho in The King: Eternal Monarch, and I was consuming anything I could where he existed. LOL.

2022-10-11 15:04:39 +0000 UTCThis is a pretty eclectic group so will put this out there on childhood books. Anyone ever read Mrs. Piggle Wiggle? She would help parents with some "cures" for poor behavior and I remember the "never go to bedder cure', the "wont pick up toys cure", the "radish cure". Loved these but it was a different time and world back then. Probably wouldn't be appropriate for today's kids ;).

2022-10-10 19:50:19 +0000 UTCI have dropped many dramas: Jirisan, Boys Over Flowers, The Killer's Shopping Cart List or Something Like That, Cheese in the Trap, Inspector Koo. My least favorite drama so far has been Boys Over Flowers. The whining! The next Korean food I would like to try is hotteok. Guess I am in the mood for pancakes! I tried hwachae over the summer after watching In the Soop. I was skeptical about mixing milk and Sprite, but it turned out to be pretty good. Two thumbs up from me! Favorite Drama: Our Beloved Summer, but Reply 1988 and Hospital Playlist are close contenders.

2022-10-08 23:22:27 +0000 UTCInteresting! I loved thirty-nine! For me it was problematic because life is messy, and imperfect people make tough decisions, not because the characters were toxic (well, at least not the main ones). That's a subtle yet important distinction for me. I haven't watched the other 2 you mentioned, but I've heard mixed reviews about 1% of something. For me it seems like it's always the case of so many dramas, too little time. 😅

2022-10-04 22:02:10 +0000 UTCYou’re not weird (otherwise I am too 🤣). While I loved PMY as Chae Young Shin in Healer, I haven’t been able to relate to her characters since then.

2022-10-04 21:05:11 +0000 UTCI can't believe there are so many Park Min Young fans! ... I love her dramas, yet somehow she never really moves me as an actress. I might just be weird though.

2022-10-04 15:31:31 +0000 UTCI love this, Karen! Cottage cheese haters unite! LOL. Take on Me by A-Ha is a fantastic ear worm. It's in my head right now!

2022-10-03 22:31:56 +0000 UTCEdits were a beast, but glad they are over. And I've been meaning to thank you! You were the one who recommended the Con Air episode of How Did This Get Made, weren't you? As promised, the Monday after our Zoom, I listened on the way to work, and the people driving next to me must have thought I was having some sort of nervous breakdown because I was cry laughing the whole way. Jason Mantzoukas maintaining the whole way that the movie worked and was flawless had me 🤣🤣🤣. Thank you so much for the rec!

2022-10-03 19:05:00 +0000 UTCHi Amy! Glad that you're back, and glad to read your survey. How'd your edits go?

2022-10-03 18:41:25 +0000 UTCHi Becky! Thanks for asking! I've moved out of public education to corporate training. My official title is Instructional Designer. Basically, I'm creating eLearning modules the employees can work through on their own in our learning management system. We still do a lot of live trainings, but the eLearning stuff will supplement that and be able to serve those who work out of state or who get hired on after a live event happens and still need to access the materials. Sounds riveting, I know. LOL. But for me it's still in the teaching realm, it's creative, and it's given me WAY better work-life balance. I get to work from home two days a week. Today is one of those days which means I can pop on Patreon in the middle of building a module on hydraulic digger and bucket trucks. 😆

2022-10-03 13:29:16 +0000 UTCHi Amy! Glad to hear you’re getting some time back. Yay! How’s your new job going, and can you tell us more about what it is?
Becky
2022-10-03 13:21:09 +0000 UTCI WISH! That would be the ONLY reason to ever adopt three at once again (not gonna happen, though). Adopted the cats 5 years ago before I knew my one true love, and my kids insisted we keep the names the humane society gave them (though they deny this now). So they are Carp, Walleye, and Agnes. LOL.
