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.

Nice. Still have not found my copy but still certain it is around here somewhere. Many such cases, alas

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

It's 60 degrees here, which is absurd for Christmas, but it's better than 10 degrees.

I was at the dentist earlier, and they weren't playing Christmas music at all; instead it was a lot of Peter Frampton, which I honestly didn't hate.

The absurd thing is it’s apparently going to be warmer in Denver today (where my friend headed back to) than in Palm Springs! Still warmer here than Seattle though. And more daylight hours.

Got it, dcp, thank you! I think that probably makes two PDFs (maybe three) and one hardcopy that I have stashed various places, which should increase the chances of me actually being able to find one when I want it. This one is going into the obvious place where I look first...

It is not supposed to rain here until, like, 11 PM! We're under a flood watch and high wind advisory until Friday, so I was not expecting this.

we're prob getting rain. I'm kind of glad...it's been too warm. Pleasant, yet kind of creepy at the same time, right?

cereal: and if you're thinking that describes both me AND the Phoenix suburbs from which I sprung in general, you're not fully wrong.

I was gonna demur that you aren't creepy, erika, but then I remembered that the Addams Family theme song says they are so in that sense, I guess we all are

Hey, our vending machine has Chex Mix! Not in 25-lb bags. That would not work well.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm in NJ now, mostly just hanging out and watching the snow. Trying to get some work done -- I need to record a bunch of new calculus videos before the new semester starts.
