Another December, and while I hate to see the snow and ice return, there’s always some joy to be had in the lights and various decorations around the town. The snow can indeed be pretty as well, but as said, less so when you have to deal with it every day. My holiday season just got a lot better however since I found out SpaceKitty is coming down from California to spend the New Years. It’ll be a quiet celebration with some dinner, perhaps taking in the local festival of lights, and probably some fun out in the snow. Short of being back in San Diego, I can’t imagine a better way to spend the occasion.
Finished up The Subtle Knife and now I’m on to The Amber Spyglass. Subtle Knife ended as action packed as it began, I think it will be my favorite book of the series. Thankfully Amber Spyglass is quite lengthy, so there should be plenty of room to finish the story properly. I have to say, I’m already wondering how the movie will possibly do this series justice. Having rewatched the trailer after finishing the book however, I believe they’re going to make a very good attempt at it.
The first of the new Futurama movies are out, and while I haven’t watched it yet, I will soon. SpaceKitty is a huge fan of the series and has already seen, she says good things about it. I’m glad to see more episodes of the series, but the lackluster return of Family Guy often makes me wonder if these shows ought to simply stay dead. We’ll see, I guess. Reminds me that I really ought to check out the Serenity book after finishing up a few other picks, some day soon.
