Migraine this weekend, still sort of hanging in there. Despite same, was incredibly productive Sunday for everything but writing my Yuletide story. My mom hates baking so much that when she got obligated to bring cookies to something-or-other this upcoming weekend, she phoned me up and offered cash money if I'd bake cookies and send them to her. They went out via UPS this morning.

Blarg.

ETA: Oh, I know the thing I was going to say. myrialux and I watched the first 30 minutes or so of Syfy's Alice, were bored to tears by it, and ceremoniously deleted it and the second half from the DVR. The vague consensus on my f-list seems to be that people liked the first half but were bored to tears by the second, which makes me wonder just how soul-draggingly boring myrialux and I would have found it.

I liked it, but I have something of a greater tolerance for what many people consider boring. I think "Tinman" was better, though.

I started watching Tinman, but it didn't grab me, and I never got back to it. I've heard good things about it, though.

If nothing else, Tin Man doesn't spend 4 hours telling you what an awful awful thing it is when women are in charge instead of men.

Didn't see Alice but have been driven to distraction by the nasal, whiny, smug android-voice intoning, "Syfy: imaginnnne greaterrrr."

I think my biggest problem with Alice is that the original story is a masterpiece of nonsense and the Syfy* version put boringly mundane plot and motivations in there.
