I have a loaf of pumpkin chocolate chip bread in the oven right now.

And I was literally just talking about getting some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies on.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

Let the pumpkin wave continue!

Update: pumpkin chocolate chip bread is very tasty. Especially warm, when the chocolate chips are all soft and gooey.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'll have to make pumpkin something else, since I only used part of the can. Oh no whatever shall I do.

the only music they were playing was Christmas music, which just rubbed me the wrong way for some reason. Probably because it's almost 60 here.

You should go listen to the end of yesterday's NPR Politics Podcast. At about 21 minutes in, Miles Parks starts talking about this very thing. [link]

I will start with Christmas decorating tomorrow. Today I was out and about. Got gifts for 4 people, warm white lights that ALL F*IN MATCH for the tree (the last two years have been mis-matched bright white and I hates it), new christmas pjs for me, some books, and dog food. 4 small stores, 2 box stores. Plus 2 meals out from small local places. all in all pretty good.

Mac worked from 8-4.

Tomorrow he does that shift again and I really wish he could get on it permanently.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Xmas music has been playing in the lab since last week, at least when my supervisor is there.

How's Mac doing, msbelle?

My outside lights are apparently not working but I don't feel like dealing with them now.

Jesse, he's doing well. Working 20-30 hours a week. Taking a free online class in music. saving a tiny bit of money, but that should build up much faster after the first of the year.

That's great.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Well, I went to Trader Joe’s to pick up a wreath that I could decorate for the door, and they were out. I went to put up my outdoor lights and they weren’t working. I bought new ones and couldn’t find the outside extension cord. So I said, “Screw it,” and finished up the leftover Thanksgiving pie while reading fic.

I’m glad to hear that DCJensen is home, though.
