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.
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?)
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.
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.
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!
How about this, Jesse?
It would have the added virtue of post-Halloween use.

Those cupcakes are too cute.
