Day 3, Evening Edition…
The following takes place between… Awww, fuggit.
4:45 PM
@mrsellars – Fuggit. I’m wearing my sweats for the rest of the evening. Miserable, cold rain… Not going to make pretty.
@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 – Dry… Dry… Dry…
@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…
@mrsellars – [Deliberate] [Discuss] [Deliberate] [Discuss]
@mrsellars – Need to stop visualizing E K in that costume…
@mrsellars – Night all… I’m too old for this shit, I’m going to my room to settle in.
@Con_Folks – Goodnight, Murv!
@mrsellars – Walkies… Walkies… Walkies…
@mrsellars – Walkies… Walkies… Lean… Stagger… Lean…
@mrsellars – Walkies… Walkies…
@mrsellars – Stumble…
@mrsellars – [unlock door] [go in] [lock door] [turn on computer] [raise blinds]
@mrsellars – {exhausted sigh}
More to come… (Or, not…)
