  • It's as Plain as the Mask on Nicki's Face

    Well this is the last of the episodes about covid!  We get the last of our feelings out and we find how we are supposed to go on with life.  I take aim at issues in and outside of Covid and we talk about how respecting each other might be the only things to save us.

     

    I also talk about how there are other real problems going on while we are in the middle of Covid and how we need to pull it together if we really want to get things back on track.  

    I want to add I recorded and edited this episode all in one day so give me some lack. 

    June we are talking about sex and we will be doing a little fund raising keep an eye out for details!

  • Nicki is Sick and Tired But it’s NOT Covid

    This week it's all about dealing with our Covid feelings.  While we hear a lot of new information some real and some fake we are also trying to figure out what is the right to personally deal with our feeling about this virus.  Now that we in our 30's have to actually be the adults who try and take care of the older and younger generations and we can get frustrated and lonely.  And, what do you do with those kind of feelings??  Does starting a new hobby make this time easier?  Does being forced into a new roll in your life come better to you if you are also baking the perfect sour dough??  Or, should we be talking about how we really feel? We maybe be angry or scared or even feed up and I think we are at the point with states starting to open up that we own these feelings and get them off our chests now before we start to blow up or fall into bigger depressions.  

     

    A side note to everyone.  I have never drank really during an episode before, but I had the bright idea to try to get rid of some wine and I think I ended up a little more tipsy that I thought I would.  So, if it's as noticeable to you has it was to me I just want to say sorry.  I'm sure I'm not the only one have an extra glass of wine these days so I hope you understand.

    The information that I give you about masks comes straight from the CDC.com

    Next week we talk about when it's time to move on from Covid being on the front of our minds and finding real ways to productively move on from constant worry about our government and being sick even if you aren't ready to be a part of the real world yet.   There are somethings you can be doing to get back into your life that aren't sickness related that aren't just spending all your money on Amazon.

  • Nicki's More than a Label

    Well we made it to the third episode in our April makeup series.  Who knew that when I was planing this that I would end up doing these episodes during a  pandemic.  Well, I think some people knew they just didn't let me in on the secret. 

    This week we get into branching out into different brands and why that is 100% necessary!  You can't just keep wearing what your mom told you to wear when you were in high school it's time to move on to the big kid world of make up there's a lot out there and I bet you haven't seen half of it yet!  I also talk about independent make up brands and I want to put in here that I forgot to mention Melt Cosmetics and I wish I would have they have great options they are independently owned and I love their pigmentation, so look them up while you are looking up more brands you may not see in the isles while you are shopping.  Also I talk about why I like brands owned by drag queens and why you should be buying their products now.  Also I call out so called drag fans who have never even taken the time to look at the products these companies have to offer.

     

    I made sure to let everyone know what during this time I am going to keep up with episodes that we can listen to and get our minds off what's going on, and if we are talking about Covid we are doing it in a away that gives everyone space to feel free enough to say what they want and keep everyone safe.  So, May will be interesting just wait a few weeks and you will see what I will be cooking up.

  • Nicki's New Look

    This week I'm talking about trying new things.  I gave you guys challenges to try new thing things or to use things that you had at home that you may never use.  Well, I went out and got some new things that I have either forgotten about, hated before, or was scared to try.  As we get older we get stuck in routines that can become a rut and while there's no problem with liking what you like it's really a good idea to shake things up and try something new.

    Now I have said many times that it's hard right now to get a hold of a lot of brands that you're used to buying, but if you're just trying something new what does it hurt to use drugstore brands and hey you might find something affordable that you actually like. I also give you tips on how to clean these products when you get home so that you actually use them without fear of getting sick. 

    I have to be honest I have loved doing this series and giving you all something else to think about besides being stuck at home or the government or whatever it is that is stressing you out right now.  I'm essential too all the things that you think about I constantly have on my own mind.  I don't want you to think I am ignoring it.  I  just don't see that point in forcing everyone to look fear in the face 24-7 when we all know it's there anyway.

  • We Can Be Nicki's Just for One Day

    Hi! I am finishing up fame this week.  I talk about heroes this time and how those are the really famous people in the world.  I get into what my heroes have been and how they affected my life. 

    Sadly the second half of this episode is about COVID-19 and at the time I recorded this I was head strong about going on vacation and how it wouldn't hurt anyone but now that's not even an option.  I didn't really want to talk about the virus in this episode, but it seemed like it was something that I needed to do.  I promise this is the last time I will get into it for this long! 

     

    In April I will be doing a series on Makeup and Beauty trends while getting older... I haven't gotten how I am going to do all this worked out yet because it's harder to get some of the supplies that I need, but it's 3 episodes so I will get it worked out.

     

    Mostly I just want to tell you guys to love and take care of each other.  This world needs kindness and I am hoping that the people listening to this choose that option.

  • Nicki's Ready for Her Close Up

    March we talk about fame, famous people, and heroes.  But, I thought we should start off talking about what fame is and who we think are famous.  Because, really anyone can be famous!  I also talk a little about what being a fan is and how that can also be complicated now that more celebrities are being exposed for the awful creepos that they are! Then I address that fans can also take their fandom too far and how as much as we would love to be famous none of us would want to put our lives in danger to get there.

    Also tweet me and let me know if you agree with my feelings about Brad Pitt's career choices if he wasn't a celebrity!

    Where do you find me to tweet me?  funny you should ask because all that info goes right here!

  • At Least Nicki Sees the Fire

    This week I am finishing up the topic of Climate Change by addressing who doesn't believe in Climate Change and try my best to understand how in God name people can look at the earth and what is going on and not see that there is a bigger problem that is man made.  I talk about some charts I got from a Yale study and a You Gov survey.  You can see both these charts on my Instagram @Nickineedsanadult.  I talk a little about trying to have a civil conversation with these climate change deniers, and why it's important to keep talking about these issues if not for ourselves but for the future that will end up with our messes.  Also I get into why Greta Thurnberg in SO important and needed for this movement.

     

    March is around the corner and we will start talking about fame and celebrity and Heroes. So, be ready you might shed a tear or too, Or you can learn something interesting about our need to be famous.

  • Nicki Didn't Start this Fire!

    This month we are talking about climate change, and we are starting with Australia.  We get into what started these fires and how they are climate related not just because of what started the fires but also how the fires themselves caused their own climate issues.  I get into what climate change is who or what is making this issue worse what we can really do to help and a lot of other really interesting facts about climate change.  And, we even talk a little about cow toots!

    The information I got in this episode is most found through Vox.com and Climate.nasa.gov

    No really that was the most unbiased sources I found in my google searches

    Also if you are wanting to help in any way toward the rebuilding of Australia or to help out with their eco system or helping the fire fighters or people hurt because of the fires these sites are doing good work with the money they are raising.

    https://quickweb.westpac.com.au/OnlinePaymentServlet?cd_community=NSWRFS&cd_currency=AUD&cd_supplier_business=DONATIONS&action=EnterDetails   This will help the NSW Fire Department
