Squashes

Going into the 4th week and I think I finally see some routine in the chaos. I really can't believe I'm almost a quarter through the semester. Time flies when you're having fun. Read: Time flies when you have your face in a book for 23.56 hours of the day. I really am enjoying it though. And I'm finding that I'm becoming more interested in public administration/politics too. I realize that's backward. Aren't you supposed to pursue a career in something you already like? Well, probably. The point is, I was watching the Today Show this morning, and they were talking about Keynesian strategies and the state of the budget. And I didn't mute it. I find that the more I learn about something and understand it, the more vested I become.

Enough about that.

The weather today is a huge downer. I was going to hit up the 8a CF WOD, but I had no desire to go out in the rain. Although, now it's kind of died down. What a lose-lose situation. Because now I have to go run.

Win-win situation: Me making friends with the squash man at the north side farmer's market. Every week, I go see him, because he gives the best deal in town on winter squash. He charges not by the pound, but by the whole squash. $2 apiece. Squash peeps, you know how awesome this is. Butternut, acorn, spaghetti. You name it. Last week I bought 5 squashes. (Squashes? Really, is that how you write it?) Then he went on to tell me that at the end of harvest season, he's going to unload all he has left on me if I want it. This probably means I'm going to turn my balcony into some sort of cave-like squash menagerie. Hell, I might do that even without the squash Christmas that's about to come to me.

With that, I'm out.

Bring it, Tuesday.
