Thanksgiving Time~

Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving, everyone!

GAH
I'm stuffed

Like...like a pillow. Is this how ravioli feels?

November 24

  • Met someone younger than 8 who pronounced my name correctly on the first try. Actually, four people. Go cousins. 
  • Ate too much. :P
  • Had coconut cake. Informed by brother eldest that it contains rum. Determine that it is merely rum flavored because otherwise 50% of the guests would be talking funny. 
  • Decide that they called it Mortal Kombat because "test your might! Test your might! Random Skirmish!" didn't have quite the same ring.

  • Stayed home to avoid Black Friday madnesses. ZOMG amazing

November 26

  • Had Thanksgiving lunch with Grandad and his wife Judy
  • Went fishing. Score: Grandad 1, Dad 1, Jake 1, Mom 0 Ben 0, Chandler: pictures of a birdhouse.
  • Had pie. It was pie flavored. *cue guitar*
  • The pie was too sweet. No longer liked pie. 
  • Forgave the pie. Liked pie again.
  • Played some Creatures. Made a world containing every breed I have that works. Except for Fimbul Norns. They be Nornian rabbits and will spread their genes of grouchy amongst the colony. 
I believe I now have acquired the nutrition required for hibernation. And that is what I will do, come December: hibernate much in the fashion of a...polar bear.

Happy Thanksgiving. people

Happy Thanksgiving. We now eat unhealthy quantities of pie and stuffing.

So for our Thanksgiving, I made cinnamon muffins and then in the process of making the muffins, one turned into a mutant, and I tried to wash the entire container of salt in the sink, and then I accidentally tossed the rest of the nutmeg into the trash, where it disintegrated into dryer lint. Then, after baking the muffins and bringing them to my grandfather's house, I discovered that they were dry and slightly egg flavored. I think I will make them as dog treats from here on out.

And then once we got home, Mom announced that we are going to stay up all night!
Shortly afterwards I accidentally broke my tablet pen while trying to fix it. The little plastic thing on the end that lets you draw had worn down, so we replaced it with another one, and now I can't do anything with it because it selects text when you're trying to click on something, and it can't even draw a circle correctly anymore. I can probably fix this by replacing the battery.
So now my tablet and my culinary skills are broken, along with my computer and this laptop's sound recording program. (it says there isn't a memory card when trying to play back a recording. might be because I possibly accidentally deleted the required files.) At the very least, the speakers on the laptop still work. If they didn't, then I would likely be literally insane by now. Have you ever tried to stop listening to music for awhile? I did, and after about ten hours, everything was slightly gray. A bit scary, really.

So, to end this post, I give you a short list of words that look stranger the longer you look at them.

Gray
Accumulate
Symptom
Symphony
Dalmatian
Chihuhahua
Ewok
Artichoke
