  1. So. Not an extravagant midwinter revels so far, but in many ways this is the best in years.

  2. (And how the hell did that even happen, I ask you.)

  3. Another gift, tonight: being able to see (almost) all the good college friends, in one place and at one time. We're grownups now, somehow?

  4. - and a copy of the 20th anniversary edition of STRANGE DAYS, which I have always longed to see.

  5. Gave away a lot of books to local (or Briefly Returned Emigré) friends as gifts. Received two tenner book tokens & a diary & tea flowers -

  6. Giftmas this year: gentle and relaxed (apart from the Experiment In Duck, which worked out well), and oddly happy.

  7. Sleeps With Monsters: Books To Look Forward To In The First Half Of 2016 via

  8. ...but first I think I should get started on this review of a poetry collection.

  9. So I wrote the terrible DAI fic I promised for a present today. I think I owe a terrible fic present too...

  10. It is actually A FILM that mostly works, though, which is more than can be said for, oh, the whole prequel trilogy.

  11. They should've given Carrie Fisher more snark, though. Definitely felt the lack of Carrie Fisher snark.

  12. I saw THE FORCE AWAKENS. More fun than I was expecting. Less sense, more nostalgia, and verging on Skywalker Family Farce. But fun.

  13. Retweeted

    There was 60 years between the appointment of the first and second woman to the Irish cabinet!

  14. And now I reap the consequences of a surfeit of food. Oh, man. Why do I never remember the consequences early enough to avoid them?

  15. Tea is soothing, tea is right. Tea for morning, tea for night. Tea so lovely, tea of might.

  16. Duck success! Now I must catch up on all the other things that need doing before the end of the month.

  17. THE MASKED CITY by Genevieve Cogman

  18. Today I am cooking a duck. Pray for my soul, for this is my first attempt upon duck.

  19. Retweeted

    the problem with Christmas is the same as the problem with everything else: not enough sorcerers

  20. Maybe I should work a little harder on this paper.
