Whee!

My bitchy user feedback bore fruit! The Ceeb has updated its This is Wonderland page!

Oooh, with actual descriptions and everything. I'm very glad to learn that Zona isn't gone. I was worrying.

So consider this my first official pimpage of the year: Season 3 of This is Wonderland starts November 23 at 8 p.m. on CBC. You should really watch it. For many reasons, but mostly because it rocks.

- Got the helmet column done. As always, turns out my abject panic was unnecessary -- chief editor and ghostwritee both liked it a lot. I wish I was a judge of my own writing. I still think I could have done better. On the other hand, I think that about everything I write, so there you have it. Squeaked through to publish today -- I'm embarrassed at how little time I gave the guy to review it.

- I am behind on almost everything else, but somehow I don't mind as much.

- My Amazon snark has produced results! More than I expected in fact -- all I really wanted was confirmation of my ship date and some reassurance that it wasn't, in fact, going to be May 11, 2006. This is what I got:

- On a similar note, the This is Wonderland site admins finally got around to noticing the DVD was out. I tellya, fan sites are much more on top of these things.

- They also mentioned that CBC is going to be rerunning "selected episodes" from TiW Season 2 and I know scab TV sucks (TM pretentiousgit) and I must be strong but aaaaaargh.

- Working on the house tomorrow -- new regime for September!

- I really, really have to pack.

Cousin J just phoned to tell me she saw Cara Pifko on King Street. She couldn't place her at first (do I know her? should I say Hi?). Sounds like she handled it in considerably cooler fashion than I would ("OMG I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE BACK FOR ANOTHER SEASON! Also, that Alice finally got laid! Oops, that was my outside voice, wasn't it?").
