I have the honor to be, Sir @yourobedservant-blog - Tumblr Blog

My mom called me to tell me she had a dream in which I was pregnant and told her I was naming the baby Hamilton. In the dream, she said, “I know it’s none of my business, but I don’t want people to think my grandchild is named after a sandwich! People will call him Ham!”

After we got off the phone she sent me this:

#Hamilton #my obsession is well known by those who love me

Giveaway goodies going to the post office tomorrow!

A friend of mine works for a media outlet and knows that I am 100% Certified Hamiltrash™ so he’s lending me an advance reader copy of a historical fiction book about Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler and I am SO PUMPED. I’ll let you all know how it is once I get it.

I get why people want to write women this way, but I’d like to see less perfect cinnamon roll Eliza and see more Eliza written with some undesirable traits, like a real human. Like what about her relationship with her Christianity? While her being Christian is in and of itself not an issue, it led her to some questionable moral choices, like not accepting children into the orphanage whose parents weren’t married (yeah). How about more cases of an Eliza who’s not chill with Ham’s relationship with Laurens? Or patronizing problems that arise from her being born upper-class? Make her more well-rounded.

Can we talk about Lin’s puppy dog eyes when Hamilton arrives in New York?

In another sign that the Broadway smash “Hamilton” has become a cultural phenomenon, you will soon be able to buy branded T-shirts, caps, water bottles and hoodies far from New York City. Bloomingdale’s said Friday it will carry “Hamilton” memorabilia in its stores in Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Santa Monica and New York’s Long Island, as well as online. That’s in addition to the retailer’s two Manhattan locations on 59th Street and SoHo. Bloomingdale’s is the exclusive retailer beginning June 1 through July 31.

& of course, there is always the online store. (while shipping cost is a thing, I’ve also had very good experience with their customer service – I actually had ordered myself the incorrect hoodie design, sent them a panicked e-mail, it all got resolved very smoothly.)
