Friday: Got a bunch of pumpkins and invited Kelly and her boyfriend for a little carving party with Charles and I at my house. They left afterwards and then Charles and I began cutting up the remains and putting the pieces in a bowl, while I separated the seeds from the guts.

Saturday: Got the stuff from the fridge/bowl on table and started gathering the ingredients for pumpkin pie! Charles made the crust while I roasted seeds (one batch salted, one unsalted). After finding a suitable supliment for cream (we had some cream, but it expired 4 years ago), we began smooshing up the pumpkin meat, pressed and strained it, and then mixed in the rest of the ingredients. After realizing that it NEEDED to go into the blender to prevent it from looking more and more like VOMIT, we blended and poured and it took twice as long as the cookbook said it would for it to cook. But when it cooled off properly, it turned out amazing!! BETTER THAN STOREBOUGHT OR CANNED!! We've decided that his house needs pie, too, so we're planning to go over there for more baking.

Monday: Went to KMFDM, but got there too late to see Bella Morte :( I did get to see Ross though. We talked for a little between sets and I gave him a skull ring (or a bat ring, I forgot. I was handing them to all my friends). I got to see [livejournal.com profile] keeblerx which was quite pleasant :) I got to see Brian who snagged some stickers that had my name on them (apparently, the shit band that played before KMFDM has this mellow side-band called Fawn).
When Andy saw me, it was like he recognized me from the last show in Ithica, or recognized me as Ross's friend from the last show. He gave me a big hug and smile (with a tongue sticking out at me first) and it was so adorable. Anyway, no meeting KMFDM this year, and no going to Vertex afterward. I was getting tired and had school in the morning.

TODAY I DREW BLOOD FOR THE FIRST TIME from a fake arm with flowing blood through fake veins, in Med Lab class. Mr. Anih says next week we'll be doing it on the real thing. I'm nervous. I really fucked up the first time, but the second time I tried I got it nearly perfectly! And I'll tell ya, tying a toornequit the right way looks way easier than it is.

Tomorrow, I start my internship.

fawn doing phlebotomy seems like a bad idea. considering that you used to freak out when i put my arms near your head due to the veins therein.

bwahahahahahaha. I remember that. GROSS! No, I'm getting better. Drawing actual blood next week will determine if that's the job for me or not.

You MUST go!! They're awesome to hang out with, too, so convince them to stay a while and hang out at the club :)

Ooh! I must have the instructions for the Harry Potter drinking game! I shall play a round in your honor!

And I hope when you draw blood from a live person you are more confident in your abilities. I'm sure you'll do fine.

It's a basic game, like the LoveBoat drinking game. Everyone picks a name and when you hear it, you drink. Don't pick Harry (or Potter, or any combination of Harry and Potter) or else you'll die of alcohol poisoning by the time they even get to Hogwarts. I also don't suggest Ron, unless you're picking the name for someone else and you have a mean streak ;)
Decide on a group drink word (like, Hogwarts).
And make up a rule (like, figure something out for when the black kid talks about Sirius Black). And that's about it... Getting a group together is awesome... but careful on the hard liquor... it runs out fast! Grab a few six-packs and party hard!
(oh, and hopefully, I'll do fine on drawing blood. I was much less nervous the second practice run).
