Rose: Someone was actually able to deceive me once.
Sophia: Do tell, Rose.
Rose: St. Olaf's most famous OBMAG.
Dorothy: What's that?
Rose: Obstetrician-Magician. The Amazing Shapiro. He delivered Bridget. But it was so confusing. "It's a girl! Now it's a dove... Now it's a glass of milk." I don't know how he got her in that deck of cards, but there she was right after the King of Hearts. "Is this your baby?"

Rose: When I get nervous I put my head between my knees.
Dorothy: No, that's for nausea.
Rose: When I'm scared I'm nauseous. Remember the time that guy tried to steal my purse?
Dorothy: Worked better than mace.

Travelers Club International Restaurant and Tuba... →
Went there for the first time and I freaking LOVE it. Great atmosphere and delicious food that they try very hard to make with local products. I’m amazed I haven’t been there sooner, considering I’ve driven by it thousands of times. There are also a bunch of tubas everywhere, which is also pretty swell.

An unstoppable force.
Yesterday the only ones running the farm were women, with the exception of the two little boys who are to young to do anything. The guy intern left last weekend and “E” was at work for a couple days in the city, so what remained were four women running a farm and we ran it well. We even hosted a group of volunteers who were also all women. We put in a full 6 hours of working the...

A girl at my internship asked me to sew her pants back together.
She tore them on some barbed wire while on an adventure with a boy.
The barbed wire ended up breaking her pants a little.
Then the boy had to leave, probably forever.
That ended up breaking her heart a little.
But he didn’t escape from the adventure unscathed.
He got attacked by a swarm of angry bees.
As I was sitting...

A night-time discussion among interns, Part II:
Guy: (to girl) How can you headache feel better when it was kinda imaginary in the first place?
Everyone: oooooh!
Me: You just don't understand because you have such a big head that you can never feel any of your headaches!
Everyone: Oooooooooh!
Guy: Now, why you gotta go after my head like that?
Me: You were going after her head!
Guy: That is true. I guess that's what we do, we stick up for each other.
Me: Yup, we stick up for each other by insulting each other. It's like a cycle.
Everyone: *agree*
A night-time discussion among interns.
Girl: Yah, there was definitely a time in my life, when I was younger, where I would get such bad headaches that the only way to get rid of them was to eventually throw up. It was horrible.
Guy: Oh man, I know what you mean.
Girl: Really?
Guy: Yah, I had kinda the same thing but with stretching. I just could not do it without throwing up.

Tonight I ate some home-made ratatouille while watching Ratatouille. And it was all topped off with some home-made gourmet apple pie and vanilla ice cream. The only reason it was gourmet was because it was fancy looking. It looked more like a baked apple pizza than an actual pie. It was delicious. And the ratatouille was simply unexplainable. You know in the move when the critic eats it and...

The entire house has had a look at it and the evening has been full of hypotheses. We all agree that it is an organic matter, and most of us believe it is some sort of plant. An eight-year-old boy suggested it might be a coral or some sort of anemone. That idea was considered. My boss lady thought it might be a fish. That idea was rejected fairly quickly. Here are the things we know about it:
