Final tally? 35 pounds of uncooked squash translates after cooking into two 9x13x3 inch Tupperware containers, plus at least 6 cups extra, which were eaten.
Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All is well that ends in pizza.

“Not dead yet!”
Poor Teas!
And well do I remember the days of every bodily function being part of the daily wear.

Shir, I hope you got really good sleep. And good luck in class today. I'm sure you will knock em dead!
Hil, there ar a lot of rather interesting named town in PA. The PennDutch names are great party talk for out of staters. Better than freeway talk in LA.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
My favorite PA factoid is that in Nazareth (not far from Bethlehem) there's a cheese shop called Cheeses of Nazareth.

In good news, we are applied for Visas!
eee! You're going to India!
They never tell you that real intimacy with another person comes from knowing way more than you ever wanted to about their poop.
Sure there's the poop but it's not just the poop. It's the whole universe of caring for someone, the bathing and the tending, taking someone's temperature or wiping down a fever. Listening to them breathe at night.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My favorite Nazareth fact is that it is the home of Andrettis.
Jilli, come visit California peeps! But before Tuesday because then I am heading back home to PNW.
.(Honestly, tonight's particular episode -- if I had just awakened out of a long refreshing coma and knew NOTHING about O'Reilly, based on tonight's episode, I *honestly* would have thought it was a comedy show. [Yes, I do know that's exactly what Colbert is doing.] But *seriously.* O'Reilly was actually funny in a couple of places, and the overall effect was that of a spoof of a news show.)
My Neicelet, love her, was actually stunned that Colbert was a character and satire. She's young but people scare me.
Went to a fundraiser at the San Diego Zoo tonight and missed billytea. And having the awesome zoo membership while I lived a couple of miles away.

Thanks Cass.
Speaking of tending to someone, my little kitty girl needs some tending to. She's been having hairballs again so we need to get her groomed. I hate to do it because it's so unfun for her, but the hairballs are worse.

Thanks, all. I'm only lecturing on Tuesday, which is excellent, because I would have seriously slay someone if I would have to do it today. I only had 4 hours of sleep. I can't believe the goddamn thing worked in the end.
But I'm going to ICon (one of the major sci-fi/fantasy cons) for 3 days (including Monday, on which I'll preform the "ICon as Extreme Sports: How to Enter 4 Lectures/Seats in 4 Hours, When 3 of Them Lasts for 2 Hours" drill, and then I'm going to see the newborn of my friends. So all in all, I got some superb reasons to be exited for.
I just wish that losing sleep wouldn't make me that resentful.
