We can only hope that Cookie Monster made ANOTHER pie just for him and Grover.

Er. Sorry. Should have attached a spoiler warning to that.

Though one major mystery remains:

Did GROVER get any pie?????????

I haven't seen anything in the show so far that suggests that Bridgerton will tell that story well. So.....like you, I'm not overly optimistic. Just for different reasons.

Oh, I think it's going to be just background in season four and possibly season five, but the showrunners have confirmed that the show's been renewed for seasons five and six, and those characters will get their own season - either five or six.

That doesn't mean they will tell that story well.

(do I think my upcoming December publication has any sort of shot at an awards nomination? no. but it makes me feel even MORE twitchy about doing an eligibility post, if that's possible given my ALREADY HIGH TWITCHINESS LEVEL.)

.....this is probably NOT in reference to Chase Bank but IT SHOULD BE.

OUTSTANDING CHOICE.

.....and here I was telling people over the Thanksgiving holiday that I didn't think we were going to have a Hugo Award for Best Poem in 2026, but I was hopeful for future years.

....really?

Wow.

I did NOT know! I had resigned myself to not having a poetry Hugo in 2026, so failed to prepare ANYTHING!

I shall try to have some sort of limerick ready once official Hugo voting starts up.
