Hola squirrelfriends, welcome to another Lizzy recap of RuPaul’s Drag Race, Season 6 episode 8: “Drag Queens of Comedy”. The queens write and perform a stand-up bit for an audience made up of random geriatrics, the usual panel of judges, and guest judges Bruce Vilanch and Jamie Pressly (whenever I see Jamie I always think of her “My Name is Earl” character drawling “The wide wide world of webs“).

Notables for this episode include LaGanga’s COMPLETELY over-the-top runway/stand-up outfit and bit (“They’re drag queens–what do you expect?” pointed out my husband) and eventual (spoiler alert!) dismissal. Thank the Lord, because she was getting reeeeeaally annoying. I expected to be bored to death by Trinity’s stand-up but lo and behold, she pulled it off! And I loved her little Asian dress. Fabulous. Bianca Del Rio blew EVERYONE else away in the stand-up challenge, but else would you expect? I loved her runway/stand-up outfit too–a towering orange wig, fabulous 60’s-esque dress and neon orange eyeshadow. It was all working for me, Miss Rio!

Apparently we’re behind–I noticed last night episode 9 has also been posted, so perhaps I will watch that tonight and post my recap tomorrow. I’d like to watch it right now but I have to wait for Joshy. We do these things together.

Today is rainy and blustery–a perfect day for an indoor jog on the treadmill. Of course I still have to figure out something to do with these pets. Someone at work today said, “It’s been driving me crazy…you look so familiar. I know this sounds weird but…were you ever a Scottish dancer?”

Pretty random, but I took it as a compliment. She added something about the way that I carry my body, and I told her that ever since I started doing Pilates I’ve noticed a real change in my posture: I don’t slouch as much! My spine is straighter! This was the first time someone pointed it out to me, and it made me feel good. Maybe all the Pilates has been reversing my slouchy computer posture…that would be grrrrreat. Thanks Blogilates!
