HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

This past weekend of Hurricane Helene made Babushka think of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. QueQuee?? The craziness, getting supplies, the anticipation, the gratefulness that all returned to how it should be- you see the correlation? If you've been to a showing, then you know what BB's talking about, and if you haven't, get your tickets and immerse yourself in over-the-line craziness and overworked senses. Good, not so clean fun that is true 70's.


"A musical comedy horror film-The story centers on a young engaged couple whose car breaks down in the rain near a castle, where they search for help. The castle is occupied by strangers in elaborate costumes celebrating. They discover the head of the house is Dr. Frank N. Furter, an apparently mad scientist, who creates a living muscle man named Rocky. Frank seduces the couple and it is finally revealed he is actually an alien transvestite from the planet Transsexual in the galaxy of Transylvania.- " Wikipedia




So Beautifuls, that's the premise, pero not the party!!

"Nothing beats a Rocky Horror screening, where you can jump up and dance to "The Time Warp" in a live, interactive experience. Come up to the lab and see what's on the slab!

Limited preshow VIP tickets are available and include a meet and greet with Patricia Quinn, a photo opportunity and an autograph.

Preshow VIP meet and greet includes:

  • Special Rocky Horror VIP laminate.
  • A photo taken with Patricia Quinn with your own camera.
  • Bring a small personal item to autograph (such as a poster, DVD or other media item) or pick out a photo from Quinn's collection to get signed.

**Prop bags will be available to purchase at the merchandise stand and will include a variety of the classic prop list items. For safety reasons, no outside props or items will be permitted."

For those who've never seen it, or quizas a little rusty-

LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!!

Everything Old Is New Again - BB Bday, @AmeoLife , @arshtcenter, #RockyHorrorPictureShow

 


HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

Y’all know the old saying, “Everything Old is New Again”? Bueno, they ain’t just whistlin’ La Guantanamera. Two of BB’s favoritos, things she’s written before, are back in the spotlight and it’s time to write about them again.  Pero first, Babushka turned 62 in 2024. 

Wow and Woah.



BB sans Smokey Eyes

All things considered, not looking too bad if she says so herself. Have been asked many times how do I keep the skin so smooth and free of wrinkles? Primero, genetics- ya can’t beat that long reaching Asian blood. Segundo, there are reasons the ancient ways and knowledge continue to be used today. Specifically speaking of Silver and its known beneficial properties. Love the smell and the feel of the nightly face cleaning with this jabon. BB's been using it for years.





Of course a smile always makes one happier and look better too. Plenty of smiles in Babushka’s fond memories of high school; going to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show is one BIG SMILE. The wickedness, wackiness, weirdness, just Wonderful!! Perfect for a teen trying to find their own way, own form of expression. It’s been 49 years. QueQueee?? And this year they’re celebrating con ganas down in Miami’s Arsht Center.  




As we Cubans say, "Lo Bueno es Bueno siempre."  Good is always good, 

and these are not only good, but classics. 

Y si, that includes BB.  😉😊


Babushka Besos to All.

P.S.  Babushka has written about these before -

February- The Month of Love Part IV

Martinique my muse suggested I write on love and the 5 senses.  
This is part IV- the sense of Touch.


Touch.  Oh si, TOUCH.  A physical and spiritual sense.  You can touch a hand and touch a soul.  Countless are the examples, but let BB share some of her favoritos.


 Now, BB being a drama-club-member-highschooler-of-the-80's,my first thought on hearing the word "touch"  brings back memories of a dark movie theater. And for the mal pensados- JU SO FONII!!!  I meant a memory of a particular song from the movie "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"; the song where Janet sings to the creature.


 You know the song, don't play bobo- sing it with me...


"Toucha, toucha, toucha,  touuuuuuch me- I wanna be diiiirrrrrty. 
Thrill me, chill me,  fullfiiiiiiill me, creature of the night." 



Whaaaaatttt???  Random you say?  Not really. 

 If you figure it's been over 30 years since I saw that movie down in the Grove (that's Coconut Grove for you non-Miamians) and yet I still remember the lyrics , you'd have to agree that it touched me.  Of course my parents thought I was touched -in the head, but for me it was the first showing of independence and I cherish it.


You know another thing that just naturally follows this?  Money. Si, dinero, bi-lle-tes.  
Having money is independence and I cherish it.  

  "BB, you're going off topic again.  Remember, "The love of money is the root of all evil."  

Is it?  Really?

Now just unscrunch that brow and let Babushka lead in this baile.  I'll try not to step on anyone's toes.... well, not too much and not too hard. How money = independence I think you can see that, but why I cherish it and what has it to do with the sense of touch?  Let me proceed.

Primero- the physical;  I like to touch money.  The coolness of the coins, their weight, feeling the jingles as they do belly bumps- I like this.  I like the feel of paper money, the crispness of new bills and  the creases  of those that have been in circulation awhile. I like the NOW of actual currency, not the pretend of plastic.   Pretty good analogy for humans too don't you think?  Si, the physical of money- me gusta.

Segundo- the spiritual touch of money.  The true evil of loving money is wanting it all for yourself, but when you share the wealth are you not showing love?  To touch another with kindness- that is love, and vamos decir la verdad; you can touch a whole lotta  people with a whole lotta money. It's not so much what is given as the fact that someone cared about them, thought of them, that they do count and are not alone- this in our material world is shown with money.  Soup for the hungry, encouragement for the lost, skills for the seeking, beds for the beaten, and laughter for the lonely,  these are but a few ways money can touch.  Si, the spiritual side of money- tambien me gusta.


Y me gusta compartir con ustedes.  
I love to share with y'all and to prove that- another giveaway!!! 
 Yes, change of tempo, from Tango to the Pony.  That's what happens when BB plays DJ!

Let's end this post on an upnote and happy tingles; go to BB's Feibu page, and enter the 
February Extreme Cash Giveaway with prizes from $300 - $50.




Buena Suerte and remember- no matter what- SIGUES BAILANDO!!!



Babushka Besos a Todos.  Cuidensen.



P.S.  I'd like to dedicate this post to my highschool friend Frank Kercado who could do a 
Dr. Frank-n-Furter like nobody's business and was a rare, intense, and true talent.  Frankie, you left us as you had lived- with passion and in a blaze. I miss you querido amigo, but I know  you're getting many curtain calls en el cielo while you sing amongst the clouds.  Mil Gracias for your brilliance.


P.P.S.  My 19 year old read this post and didn't know whether to think it cool that her mom likes "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" or be embarassed by it.  Oh Sweet Karma- I love you!
