Animation Saturdays
Christmas on Tor.com Saturday Morning Cartoons.The Legend of the Turning Stone: A creepy french yuletide.
A super charming CBS spot from R. O. Blechman.
And, the original Frosty the Snowman from the most awesome UPA. (There is something both joyous and a little maddening about all the bouncy pep in Frosty's step.)
Halloween
While I regret skipping World Fantasy this year, it has made room for a perfect Halloween. Rebecca Guay and Matt Mitchell kindly invited us up to Amherst to go trick-or-treating with them, Scott and Teresa Fischer, and various ninjas, witches, mermaids, and three eyed monsters. After the sugary loot was hauled back, it was off to Holly and Theo Black's for a feast Tim Burton would applaud -- bone silverware, worm and cricket soup, needle injected palette cleansers, and brains for dessert. (For the record: I did not eat the bugs - in fact, I considered myself very brave for just eating around them -- but the consensus of the table was that crickets taste better than worms. Just so you know.) The best part, however, was sitting around a candle lit room and having the likes of Holly Black, Gavin Grant, Kelley Link, and other storytellers doing what they do best: tell stories. Of a ghostly nature, of course.
Happy Thanksgiving
Giving thanks for the unseasonably warm day, I took an untraditional Thanksgiving bike ride to the beach.Everyone, eat pie. Even you non-Staters out there.
