Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh no, Brenda! That sucks.

I am probably going to a dance event tonight but making it to midnight is still doubtful

Our wings are not tired.

Oh no, Brenda!! I'm sorry.

Still vibing for Vortex.

My big plan is to walk across the street to the beach and watch the waves roll in while listening to fireworks and partyers. I might get some champagne, or I might finish off the crémas. It's in the low 80s now, and the forecast is for 73F at midnight, so I expect there will be a lot of people on the beach, both locals and vacationers out and about.

The tv has been tuned to the Samsung holiday music channel to keep the dog entertained when we aren't here. The music has changed to pop hits, but the background images remain holiday scenes. This amuses me. Yes, I am easily amused.

Turkey post

After a momentary power glitch I went back into my computer and the WaPo Hurdle remembered where I was on the 3rd word! I had already forgotten the first one, but knew the second one. Phew. It was an end-of-year miracle.

That sucks, Brenda. Feel better soon.

I’m going to watch the new Star War and then go to bed tonight.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

We're both working today and don't have plans for tonight. Odds are good I'll make it to midnight and then immediately fall asleep.

I'm making squash fritters. They better be good, considering the work it's taking to squeeze the shreds dry.

I could probably go to sleep right now. Maybe a nap after work and then try to stay up? Maybe I'll just get a second wind after I leave.

What kind of squash, Dana? Although I think I just generally like fritters, that sounds pretty tasty whatever the squash is.

Spaghetti squash.

First batch: not worth the effort. I'll try to do better with the second batch tomorrow.
