Natter 78: I might need to watch some Buffy for inspiration

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.

Our wings are not tired.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Aw, brenda, I'm sorry!

That sucks, Brenda. Feel better soon.

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

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

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 terrifically busy with my ennui.

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.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I’m about to head to bed. I finished one more book tonight.

Happy new year.

We ordered Mexican for dinner and I had posoles and the best guacamole I've ever had in my life. I am ruined for all other guacamole.

It's almost 9 pm, and I'll be lucky if I make it to midnight.
