Update on real life plus obsession

Real Life
- I seem to have stopped doing the daily gratitudes (here plus on BlueSky). I'm not sure why but I guess I don't feel the urge anymore?
- Doris had last weekend off and has this one off too! And she is going to be working fewer hours starting in June. I am so glad for that. No big plans this weekend, but we will go to the Chinese restaurant Veggie House
- What else in the real life realm? I was happy to be able to do a favor for Chris, since he always does stuff for me. (It was computer related). Saw Ann last weekend. Work is good, but one of the new projects is kicking my butt, and I am so glad for my coworker F on this.
Obsession
- I am feeling a lot better about the whole thing. I love the duo, I can't lie. Kori has been doing a ton of Cameos and my god, he is so into this relationship. (If they are faking, they deserve acting awards). He ships them more than I do. He is constantly talking about wanting to marry Lydia, and even talks about wanting to grow old with her and "argue over oatmeal".
- They've both been eliminated from the current season now. But. There are some chances to see them again....
A. Often Drag Race does a "Lalaparuza" where all the eliminated queens get to lip sync. (Rumor is that there IS one this year. Both of them, but esp Lydia, are great lip synchers so either of them could win or do well)
B. There's also the finale, though last season's finale, they didn't do much with the eliminated queens. With all of Kori's talk about proposing and with the rumor that RuPaul has wanted a proposal at a finale for 17 years now....it might happen. (Yes, it's too early for them in terms of their relationship. But they could always have a long engagement)
C. Then we will see Lydia on All Stars later this year. I wonder how they will handle the relationship, in the edit for All Stars. At the time she filmed it, everything with Kori was way, way new.
D. I also forget if I mention, but Kori is often #1 on Cameo....like #1 out of EVERYONE on Cameo, not just drag queens. He releases a vlog once a week too. His post-Drag Race game is on point, and it's awesome since it means we get to see a lot of him
- And I finally found someone as obsessed as I am. We talk on Reddit, she digs up Kori's best Cameos to share with me. And she has the same shipping drag queens gene I have. She used to ship Shalaska, though weirdly she didn't do it till years after they broke up, so our paths didn't cross till now.
- So, no lie, if (ugh....or when) they break up, I will take it pretty hard. But I am still in the "can't control when I lose interest and get interested in something else, so I'm just on this ride and feeling like I WILL be ok if (....when) it happens." But please let it be like 5 years from now. Please?
- EDIT - did I ever say *why* I love them, apart from them being a couple? I know I said their drag isn't as good as Alaska's. But. They make videos where they say how much they love lesbians (seriously!) They are pro-woman. And maybe they aren't at Alaska's level of drag, but Lydia is creative and is an amazing lip syncher and she can sew, and Kori is witty and personable and makes tons of good videos and can act pretty well.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-01 02:48 pm (UTC)For the season, here is what's left:
- Friday there's another episode, no ButtKing
- Then a week from Friday we SHOULD get the Lalaparuza. I will literally die :) at seeing my OTP back. (And getting one last chance to wow the judges with lip synching)
- Then April 19 is the finale. I will either get glimpses of ButtKing as they walk the runway one last time or since Ru has been wanting a marriage proposal and Kori keeps talking about wanting to marry Lydia, then we might actually get a proposal OMG
If you hear me screaming on April 19, you'll know we get a proposal
