And. . . after a warning light on the capsule's toilet this morning, all is back to normal bio-ops, inside.
It apparently was just a software glitch (all resolved), but it allows me to run a favorite 'Xmas Vacation' gif, at right.
Please forgive me the middle-school vulgarity. Ahem.

Eddie is hilarious; only thing that matches is Bill Murray in Caddyshack and the candy bar in the pool
Agreed -- in a haz-mat suit... "Its no problem, its just... a Baby Ruth" -- then he bites it -- and Sapulding's granny/aunt... faints, dead away!
Typo -- that would be "Spaulding" not misspelled. And here -- just to close the silly-ness out. . . is the final update on the toilet issue, per NASA:
"...Reports suggest that a blinking fault light on the toilet signaled that a mechanical failure occurred about two hours into the mission. Specifically a urine extraction fan jammed....
The fan’s purpose is to pull the urine away into a collection container, avoiding urine microgravity issues. Thankfully, one of the astronauts managed to clear the jam and get the fan spinning. NASA has confirmed the toilet is back online..."
Indeed -- the shitter was full. Out.
