And GISHWHES 2015 is officially over.

In the past week I have dressed children up as robots and leash-walked them, covered my friend in butter, taken my aunt to the house where my mother was born, eaten a popsicle for dinner in the parking lot of an after-hours taxi company, held a going-away party for a board game, vacuumed my lawn, yarn-bombed in the name of marriage equality, made a dress out of construction paper, and done at least two things that I swore I would never do.  And I have loved every single blessed, sleep-deprived minute of it.

I am so incredibly lucky to have been part of such an amazing experience, and while I'm glad to have the time to sleep and eat again, I kind of miss the event itself already.

For those who are interested in seeing what my team accomplished, links to our youtube and imgur albums are here:

I'm not sure where there's an official list of items, but if you have questions about anything, I'm happy to answer.....

Those are glorious. :)

(The "eating cake" one reminded me of a certain LARP...)

It looks like it was fun. I can see why you wanted to join up.

How did your group get the police to breakdance?

I have no idea. One of our teammates pinged the group to ask if it'd count if we used cadets as long as they were in uniform, and the next day the video showed up in our shared drive. :)

That is a truly excellent bunch of people you've fallen in with, here. Lots of fun looking through the photos! (The "how to carry a coconut" story is especially delightful.)

Now I'm even more curious what some of these were about, though. (Eg, the violin?)
