    @mrsellars – {sigh}


    Dead dog party tonight. Fly home tomorrow.  Right now, want nap. REALLY, REALLY want nap. Think I might set alarm clock and have one.

    @mrsellars – Walkies… Rain… Walkies… Rain…

    @mrsellars – Drip… Drip… Drip…

    @Con_Registration – Raining out there?

    @mrsellars – Nope. I took a shower but couldn’t find my towel.

    @mrsellars – Meet Maria William, artist guest of honor and her husband, Chris. Have dinner with faculty advisor, some alumni, and other GoH’s… Good conversation, good noms.


    @mrsellars – [Mingle Chat Mingle]


    7:30 PM boop, boop, beep, bahp, beep, beep, boop, bahp, bahp, beep, boop… Ring… Ring… Ri!

    @EK – Hello.

    @mrsellars –  It’s here.

    @EK – What’s here?

    @mrsellars – Snow. Flakes the size of compact cars flying sideways. I just saw one take out a cow.

    @EK – Did you get any steaks?

    @mrsellars – Locals beat me to it.

    @EK – You let them get there first? Remind me to beat you when you get home.

    @mrsellars – Yes ma’am.

    @EK – Next cow that goes down you get me some steaks. Got me?

    @mrsellars – Damn, I think a family of badgers just flew past the window.

    @EK – I’m not fond of badger.

    @mrsellars – Yeah, rumor has it they’re afraid of you anyway.

    @EK – They should be.

    @mrsellars – So, according to the weather service Western Nebraska has been completely annihilated. Storm says it is planning to kill all of us too.

    @EK – Hold on just a second. [skree-skrshhh-chunk… riffle…riffle…riffle…] Hmmmm… Okay, I’m back.

    @mrsellars – What’s up?

    @EK – Just checking to make sure your life insurance is paid up.

    @mrsellars – Is it?

    @EK – Yes, sure is. So you can stop whining. Why don’t you go for a long walk.

    @mrsellars – It’s whiteout conditions. You can’t see across the parking lot.

    @EK – Sounds like a good time for you to go exploring, don’t you think?

    @mrsellars – O_o


    @Faculty_Advisor – …And that one, and that one, and maybe that one.

    @mrsellars – I dunno, there isn’t much meat on that one. Maybe a soup bone.

    @Faculty_Advisor – That might work.

    @mrsellars – We’ll need salt. Being students they might be a bit gamey. Gonna want to salt ’em down for a day or two before we cook ’em.

    @Faculty_Advisor – I’ll check the cafeteria.

    @mrsellars – While you’re there, see if they have any garlic and fava beans. No reason for us to be barbaric about it.


    8:00 PM  – Masquerade Contest – GoH’s judge.


    @mrsellars – Whoa mama, E K needs a costume like that… Cool… Good workmanship… That’s one’s neat… Hey, I bet that one took a lot of work… Wow… That one is impressive… Man, that one is cool… Hey, she sings good… Hey, she’s pretty funny… Wow, he put a lot of work into that…
