A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I need to eat, but it looks like the game is going to go down to the wire. If not past the wire.

Fine. Tacos so far. No complaints.

Happy Birthday, erika! Tacos are a damn fine way to celebrate.

Avocado Egg Salad:

Thanks to whatever Buffista exclaimed about the yumminess of this. Maybe Teppy? Finally made some today and it is quite tasty. FL avocados are quite different from the CA varieties, so lighter and sweeter, but yum.

That was me. I'm fanatical about it. Glad you like it!

ION, pumpkin stuff is starting to show up at Trader Joe's. I only bought pumpkin caramel corn (new this year), pumpkin cream cheese, and pumpkin butter. I think I should be commended for how much pumpkin stuff I *didn't* buy.

I just came from Kroger, where I saw pumpkin spice oreos, pumpkin spice milano cookies, and pumpkin spice milk chocolate Lindor truffles. I did not buy any of these items.

Queen City Kroger was a hot mess. I hope Clifton Market opens soon and is good.

Alex Kingston was a delight two years ago at ECCC.

She was a delight at DragonCon, as well!

I have done laundry, mostly unpacked, gotten groceries, and walked a few miles in the park. I'm trying to convince myself to make lunch before I slowly collapse onto the couch and remain there for a few hours.

Indeed! I think a trip to TJ's is required this week. I just got back from Publix and am sadly pumpkinless.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I can't remember if I posted here yesterday that I had my first pumpkin spice latte of the season from McDonald's. It was good. I'm usually one and done with pumpkin spice lattes, but I may get this one again.

pumpkin spice milk chocolate Lindor truffles.

I'm going to need these.

That Kroger is...something else. Have I told the story about how 2 large families (like, 7 or 8 adults in each family) started an actual fistfight at that Kroger while we were shopping? And the fight kind of travelled through the store (we didn't actually see it; but from the commotion, it sounded like the fight was moving like one of those cartoon cat-and-dog fights that's a cloud of dust that just rolls along). Good times.
