Boris Johnson reminds me of Edgar Alabaster, the brother in Angels and Insects played by Douglas Henshall. Too obscure a reference? Think Giovanni in 'Tis Pity She's A Whore, but much baser. I'm not a specialist in Brit politics, but I do love London - doesn't it deserve better?

Neil Gaiman at the Spike awards made my young one happy. Neil Gaiman being kissed by Jonathan Ross at ComicCon made her confused. She's a fan and very open minded (she's my daughter) so the question wasn't why he was being kissed by a man. No, the question was why by Jonathan Ross - she thinks Mr. Gaiman could do better.

Pushing Daisies still delights. Not so hot for Olive and her singing, but I can tolerate it for the sets alone. txvoodoo I thank you for being such a cool enabler.

December will be a sink or swim month for me. I'm going to a clinic with the idea of getting stronger so I can pack my bags and go around the world. Yes, the world. After two years stuck here I'm going to visit every person who will have me over. Since, mercifully, I do know quite a few people, I'm hoping my travels take me around the world. Including China *waves at Serena*. So fingers crossed.

Christmas is almost here. Again. If you have moved since last year, or would just like to receive a nice non-denominational card from Brazil, send me your snail mail address. It will be my pleasure.

A Dutch biologist "discovered" a new kind of peccary (looks like a pig) in Brazil. It takes a gringo to come here and discover something the natives had been eating for as long as anybody can remember. I'm told it doesn't taste like chicken.

Nerds are in. You live long enough and suddenly the kids are asking where you got your official Star Trek t-shirt and shiny Academy button. Who would have thunk owning a Dalek would make me the cool mom?
