I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

I would be too, but I suck at it.

I'm currently stuck on level 15.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I lost interest in The Event pretty quick. Lost ruined shows like that for me; I feel like I'm wasting my time with a puzzle that will never be satisfactorily solved.

I'm enjoying The Defenders and Chase; I've been recording Detroit 1-8-7 but have little interest in actually watching it. I think Chase will fall away eventually; In Plain Sight does this storyline better, and the lead on Chase is so intent and fraught and humorless, she makes me tired.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

You guys, I might be addicted to Angry Birds.

The first step is admitting you have a problem.

(The second step is redoing all the levels to get three stars and the third step is redoing them again to find all the golden eggs. What?)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The Boy is currently ordering a Superman t-shirt online for Halloween. I convinced him to wear his suit with the t-shirt under it, and when people ask him who he is, to rip open the button down shirt.

That's more or less my costume idea! Except Wonder Woman. And probably no blouse. Apparently I have to buy this crappy $50 costume, which I am annoyed about, but can't find a better option to get the accessories.

Also annoying: Having a bus blow by me when I am literally feet from the bus stop, and not having the next one come for at least a half hour. I really wish I had gotten up my gumption to ask some semi-strangers for a ride. Oh well.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm currently stuck on level 15.

I can't get past level 8

Because books.

I can't get past level 8

Between that and Pocket Frogs, I think I might be glad I don't have an iPhone.

I just found Ben walking around the house listening to his MP3 and singing along to "My Way," the Sinatra version. Well, all right then.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

You know there are a billion levels of Angry Birds, right? And when you get to the golden egg level, you have to often go back and revisit the other levels? AND then they add more.

Angry Birds = evil.

In other news I think I'm making these [link] and [link] for Noah's Halloween party next week. If I can't be the ever-present mom, I can at least bake the coolest stuff.

I have a problem with level 20, I tell you what. Die, pigs, die!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

How about this, Jesse?

It would have the added virtue of post-Halloween use.
