IT SNOWED!  Okay, it was more like itty bitty styrofoam pellets were being hurled from the sky, but essentially, it snowed.  I guess this means I gotta get serious about Christmas.

I have decided to get serious about Christmas by hosting a cookie baking party.  Have any of you ever done it?  Do you have tips and treats to share?

I saw an ad this evening for a six-hour, three night televison event - Childhood's End, based on the Arthur C Clarke work of the same name.  I got unreasonably excited.  I've never even read it.  But when sci-fi things are great, they are amazing! (And when they are not, lord lord LORD! they are not - I am looking directly at you, Falling Skies - hang your head in shame.). Here's hopin'

Aren't these cupcakes insanely cute?

If only God had given me patience instead of so much beauty.

Anyone watch Jessica Jones?  If so, what's the verdict?

I have to sleep now. Night night!

Jessica Jones is fantastic!

Talk about an anti-heroine...and David Tennant as the bad guy? Yes sir, I'll have another!

Do I have to watch Daredevil for Jessica Jones to make sense? Or is it just a 'same universe, not much crossover' thing?

Does Master of None get better? Because I tried to watch the first episode and I think I got about 12 minutes in before I thought "oh shut the fuck up already you whiny..." and turned it off. But I know sometimes the pilot/first episode isn't completely representative of the whole series.
