I once had a colleague that was looking for a word and said, “I’m just a crumb munchkin. I don’t know if that’s the right word. Erin will probably yell at me.” It was curmudgeon. Yes, my eye twitched. Since that point in time, I always giggle when I hear that word and secretly whisper to myself, “Heh… crumb munchkin…” 

My favorite crumb munchkins.

So, how does this relate to anything in the natural world? Well, I’m embracing my inner crumb munchkin this week. We’ll be covering my intense dislike of the ending of Edward Scissorhands, my defense of Andrew Lincoln in Love Actually, and a recommendation for a film about Christmas. Yes, I’m all over the place. But you secretly enjoy the ride; don’t deny it.
