How do you nog cooked eggs, ita?
I make egg nog with hot milk. In fact, I didn't realise people drank it cold until my late 20s.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
So, in a fit of craziness, I decided to make elf hats with jingle bells for our class. 36 kids and 4 adults. I got mine and Emeline's done today mostly cause I was prototyping them. I got 15 of the kid ones cut out and sewn together today. I'll do some more later tonight, tomorrow, and Wednesday night and then put on the trim and bells.
I've also got to get a big fleece blanket made for one of my teacher's birthday on Tuesday, study for a final tomorrow, and write a final paper. And pick up cookie supplies.
Kill me now, but I love it.

Ok, I made dark chocolate chunk chili cookies and spice cookies with caramel frosting. I declare both nom. But sadly, the hostess of the party is at the ER with abdominal pain. So no party! And now I have 42 cookies and only two people in the house. Woes.

Re: FNL: It's funny explaining the ins and outs of high school football politics to Joe. His high school had no sports team and he is all like, "Dude. What the fuck's a 'booster'? What the hell are 'rally girls'?"

Well, to be fair, my high school had a football team, and we had neither boosters nor rally girls. Of course, I grew up in New England. Southern high school football madness is not like other parts of the country.

I take it you're watching more FNL. I remember thinking during that first season that I was very happy I went to boarding school.
Or, what Consuela said.

What the hell are 'rally girls'?"
What *are* rally girls? t /went to an all-girls' school
We were encouraged to try out as cheerleaders for our "brother" school, to which most girls said, "Are they going to come cheer for us? No? Then thanks, but we'll pass."

We had football boosters, but we had them for all things. Band boosters, sports boosters, etc. Basically just a group of parents that supported whatever group their kids were involved in.

Rally girls are essentially like pep squad - not the "real" cheerleaders, per se, but they essentially do things like bake cookies, make spirit packages for the players, decorate their lockers, etc on game days.
