Look up the definition for the tr5!

<brain melts out of ears>

So... Column 1... R

1:27 am

don't know about 1066, MissO?

Ibarely know australian history :P

1:28 am

They don't teach British history in Oz?

wasnt something i opted for at school, i was more at one with human sciences, art and music

1:29 am

well, history was mandatory when I went to school

1:30 am

so never mind. Are you not using Lickety's list, MissO?

that thing scares me lol

1:32 am

It's a BIG help! Tells you the first 2 letters of the word and how long it is and the point score.

oooo

now that i know how to read it... :P

1:32 am

and if you type the word in at the toop, it goes to the right place in the list.

ooer genius

1:32 am

*at the top

i would never finish a grid, I think, if I didn't have Lickety to tell me that that **7 goes between THESE two words, and that there are three **4's right together, and - oh, well, I'd just fold up and die if I couldn't look at Lickety - or another two-letter clue list, but filling the words in is SO helpful - for the last however many!

lol

Good night all - enjoy the goat's ear.

7:12 am

lol indeed

7:13 am

name that proper noun: vegetarian entree staple made from processed fungi

7:13 am

I am sure most of us go through the same stuff with our kids... we just think that everyone else's lives are somehow different...

7:15 am

well said, mom 2....

7:16 am

It always brings a smile to my face when someone tells me about their kids and I think... OK... way worse! LOL!

7:16 am

i count my blessings,my teenager is doing fine in school and not smoking,drinking or playing with drugs

7:16 am

Puts it in perspective, right?

7:16 am

amen, crossy, amen.

7:17 am

OMG Crossy... I am with you there.

7:17 am

I have a friend in town who buried her 9 year old last year, which NO ONE should ever have to do. On my worst days, I try to remember her, and breathe, breathe, breathe

7:17 am

I have this friend, lovely woman, who cannot be on the phone for more than 3 minutes without something going horribly wrong with her 10 year old and her 13 year old, either separately or together...

7:18 am

Trif... so true... so true.

7:18 am

I wished we lived closer, crossy - I can't help but feel that our sons would be great chums

7:19 am

All I know is that I get glowing reports from her teachers and parents of her friends... so I just accept who she is at home, LOL.

7:20 am

once they finished peeing themselves laughing over the fact that I thought they would be "chums" that is....

7:20 am

most likely trif,my boy is good that way.open and honest..but would chat with jack the ripper if i didnt warn him.see the good in everyone he does

7:20 am

OMG>.. Trif... I texted "kewl" to my daughter the other day and she was like... "MOM!"

7:20 am

hi everyone

7:20 am

hi hego

7:21 am

can you say more about that, mom2? I struggle with that GREATLY with tertiare - she is a beast at home, but angelic in school, so a lot of her issues go unresolved, as the don't present near a counselor...it's really frustrating

7:21 am

kids dont know or are too young..we invented computer speak in the 80,s lol

7:21 am

crossy, Are you still wearing the bacon hat and the whipped cream?

7:22 am

sorry hugo..ate the hat

7:22 am

More about what? The dichotomous personality disorder of the average teenager?

7:22 am

hmm - she is just 10, though

7:22 am

One of my kids friends texted me the meaning of LOL recently.... can you imagine??? She thought I would not "get" it... LOL!

7:22 am

Now if you eat the cream it will really get interesting.

7:22 am

crossy, did I tell you about this year's science project yet?

7:23 am

do tell triff;)

7:23 am

Trif... I often think of the Billy Joel song, "The Stranger"... we are all like that on some level... show different parts of ourselves in different places, etc... kids are not different... also, better to act out at home (not for us, of course).

7:23 am

sorry phone

7:23 am

did i miss anything good?

7:23 am

hi hego

7:24 am

Just talking about our kids...

7:24 am

Last year Primo and his mate made a model wind turbine, and tested it for efficiency and such. The actual name for the technology they used is "hawt" which stands for high (something) wind turbine, so they called their model "hawt stuff"

7:24 am

good morning all - my first word was an st 8. good or bad omen? :-)

7:24 am

poor mom did you text her that IMHO u r an ageist?

7:24 am

Hi jmc, you did. Crossy streaked the chog

7:24 am

That's cool Trif.

7:24 am

This year, they are doing a similar thing, but want to hitch the turbine up to a hydraulic component, to measure the efficiency when wind and water are added together.

7:24 am

what? do it again! *gets out the reddi whip*

7:25 am

jmc... I should have! I'm not that quick, though!

7:25 am

sounds neat trif. :-)

7:25 am

I thought they were being all cool and ecological - turns out they are doing it because they want to call it "hawt dam"

7:25 am

Trif... how old is he? That sounds like a very advanced project, which is a good thing!

7:25 am

lol trif,last year i helped my son with a project,he made what is know as a trench radio(just google for info) dont know who had more fun,him or me;)

7:25 am

probably means you will streak through wolvie

7:25 am

OK... now that is clever Trif.

7:25 am

I laughed SO FREAKING HARD when he told me!!!!

7:26 am

I learned something about muck fires in Florida when my daughter had a project recently.

7:26 am

he is 16.5

7:26 am

did you text him ROFLMAO... and then explain what it meant?

7:26 am

Wow... he sounds very intelligent and clever.

7:26 am

are they like bog fires mom?

7:27 am

or, 198 months....remember when we used to give our kids ages in months?

7:27 am

I don't know... I had never heard of them... apparently they are underground fires caused by lightning and fed by minerals in the soil...

7:27 am

cool beans mom I never heard of that

7:27 am

OMG... I don't even like to say she is 13 y ears... don't want to convert it into months... makes me feel very old.

7:28 am

interesting mom,reminds me of that town in the states they had to close because of underground fires in the coal mines

7:28 am

Neither had I... I like when I learn something.

7:28 am

wow, that is cool mom2! The earth is an endlessly fascinating place, isn't it?

7:28 am

OK. Crossy... Never heard of that either.

7:28 am

There is a town in NJ that is no more as of a few years ago due to flooding.

7:28 am

thing has been burning for 20 years now

7:28 am

mine is 24 years as of tuesday so month conversion is not happening

7:28 am

sometimes I like to add up my kids ages, to see if I have been parenting longer than I have been living.

7:29 am

Yes Trif it is.

7:29 am

oo i remember that crossy it was scary

7:29 am

I only have the one so that would not work for me, Thanks God.

7:29 am

where is that Crossy?

7:29 am

anyone get the ro5?

7:29 am

sec wolvie....

7:30 am

The newest thing is that they want to get a dog here... not happening.. they are just big old kids who never grow up... and I will have the darn thing long after my kid graduates from college, LOL.

7:30 am

centralia PA

7:30 am

No jmc... too busy chogging.

7:30 am

secondo and I were discussing the red spot on Jupiter last night, which always bends my mind - how could a hurricane be storming for millions of years?

7:30 am

not yet jmc - just started. :-)

7:30 am

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centralia ,_Pennsylvania

7:30 am

is it the ro5/16?

7:30 am

ty Crossy

7:30 am

yes mom

7:31 am

If it is... think of a monk's haircut and substitute the r for the t.

7:31 am

good grief! it has been burning since 1962!!!!

7:31 am

Centralia does ring a bell Crossy.

7:31 am

ty mom2

7:31 am

Really? Wow.

7:31 am

I had forgotten that town's name crossy - scary stuff

7:32 am

lots of fuel to burn in a coal mine

7:32 am

yvw

7:32 am

that's a monk's haircut? I thought it was a chef's hat....the one with the T, that is....

7:32 am

OH, maybe you are right Trif... well, in any case the clue worked.

7:32 am

the spelling i have is too many letters but i will get it

7:32 am

actually, I think you are probably right.

7:33 am

OK JMC... think of the chef's hat, LOL.

7:33 am

like the beginning of cheese...

7:33 am

Now i will have to look it up.

7:33 am

7:42 am

7:42 am

oh, lol, thanks

7:42 am

ah. see, I am old so I don't get all this computer lingo you kids use these days....

7:42 am

not quite hego. ;-)

7:42 am

Oh, sorry

7:42 am

trif - i am certain i am older than you by a good bit

7:43 am

I am going to make an attempt to add things to my iPod my own self this morning...

7:43 am

but it was cute hego - no apologies needed. :-)

7:43 am

go mom go!

7:43 am

go mom go!

7:43 am

If I am successful it will be a banner day here...

7:43 am

it's easy mom

7:43 am

ty trif and wolvie

7:43 am

left collumn greyed

7:43 am

Great minds think alike.

7:43 am

you pile on that lawrence welk, girl!

7:43 am

wtg annie

7:44 am

I am in an ongoing heated discussion with some members of my meeting about the title of a workshop and keep getting distracted

7:44 am

hego - i tremble in fear just contemplating doing it. I will have to try tho. :-)

7:44 am

ty too hego

7:44 am

what is the focus of the workshop, jmc?

7:44 am

hego... every time I try to do it I get frustrated... so I decided that today is the day I am going to master it.

7:45 am

it is a discussion with members of the freshmand class of the annapolis naval academy

7:45 am

novel navy?

7:45 am

but the workshop was entitled Life in the Service as though the military was the only form of service to our country

7:45 am

If I can do it, I know you folks can. And the rewards are great.

7:46 am

first year fears? putting the U in USN?

7:46 am

I will give it a go - i see great things in this little gadget

7:46 am

Well, I am sick of being the only one in the house who does not know how to do it... then I have to wait for someone to find the time to do it for me... so I am trying to do it myself.

7:46 am

life in the military would be fine with me

7:47 am

go mom and wolvie!

7:47 am

holy crap. the fi 5/22 i just got was a pure monkey. lol

7:47 am

I tried to update mine yesterday, mom2, and couldn't do it. I could charge my ipod fine, but the computer couldn't see the ipod itself, so I couldnt sync it. totally mystified.

7:47 am

i dont know why you would think that jmc....the word service has always typically referred to the armed services....why are you letting semantics upset you?

7:47 am

the navy way of life?

7:48 am

Most apple software is really user friendly and intuitive. Just remain calm and follow the prompts.

7:48 am

life the navy way?

7:48 am

first legend you should understand that i work with the military daily and that i am a quaker

7:48 am

trif... they have it set up for "autofill"... which I think is the problem on some level... I don't know. I need iTunes for Dummies.

7:48 am

i do hego - it's just so many years of PC use - lol. I am on a mac now too

7:48 am

and your point is?

7:49 am

my objection is that military tries to own certain words such as THE service. It is A service tothe country not THE service to the country

7:49 am

I'm on a pc but I have no trouble with itunes

7:49 am

own the word? thats a little silly

7:49 am

politicians and bureacrats and teachers and police officers all provide service to the country

7:49 am

I don't think iTunes is the problem... the problem is the user of iTunes, LOL.

7:50 am

ah. well I got tired of PC issues, so went with mac - it's been fun. :-)

7:50 am

its merely a convention....generally accepted

7:50 am

then why does the military insist on calling itself THE service

7:50 am

why not?

7:50 am

hello legend

7:50 am

my BIL works in computer service, and they often use the acronym "PEBKAC" which stands for "problem exists between keyboard and chair"

7:50 am

its a silly thing to take umbrage over

7:50 am

I believe it should not be accepted and that is my point -- it demeans all the other people who give service to this country

7:51 am

If it is conventional to assume that the military is the only service, then perhaps it's time we change the convention.

7:51 am

hey vic

7:51 am

ty vic my point exactly

7:51 am

demeans?! good grief....

7:51 am

i agree vic

7:51 am

Good morning, all!

7:51 am

Hello, all!

7:51 am

hi judi

7:51 am

Yes Trif... that is where the problem is occurring here.

7:51 am

hi judi and vicuna

7:52 am

i don't think it demeans anyone else

7:52 am

morning all, not liking this grid

7:52 am

you may think so the but language is a very important part of culture and the way it thinks

7:52 am

morning peri

7:52 am

maybe "demeans' isn't the exact right word - maybe "excludes" would be less incendiary?

7:52 am

its NOT the military that does it! lol....

7:52 am

I think it is the military that does it, legend

7:52 am

wasn't thinking incendiary thoughts. ;-0

7:52 am

excludes?!?

7:53 am

the military does self describe as THE service

7:53 am

OK.. I am off to screw up my iPod... LOL!

7:53 am

hi peri

7:53 am

yes -- using THE service to only refer to the military does exclude all the other people who serve our country in different ways.

7:53 am

they have to have a hook to get volunteers ya know. some folks will naturally have that calling or ambition, but a lot don't. :-)

7:53 am

Good luck mom!

7:53 am

have fun Mom!!

7:53 am

good luck mom!

7:53 am

man you dont know much about the military

7:53 am

Good luck, mom2han! Or maybe I should say bad luck with the screwing up!

7:53 am

bye mom

7:53 am

thanks... bye all... I might be back for advice!

7:54 am

well, lets see, legend - my dad served for over 25 years, so I like to think I know a little something

7:54 am

thats right the fact that i have practice military law for 10 + years has left me woefully ignorant The

7:54 am

my family has been military for a long time. Think I might know some things too

7:54 am

i doubt if most of those other occupations doing good service to the country would agree...nor would they take umbrage

7:55 am

28 years active duty here...

7:55 am

what branch, legend?

7:55 am

I didn't say they should take umbrage, i just think i am tired of everyone doing the THE thing. even frigging universities do it now

7:55 am

Navy....naval aviatoin

7:55 am

good going Legend. :-)

7:55 am

thank you for your service, legend

7:56 am

guess you would get tired of how californians refer to their roads then...THE 10, THE 405, THE 91

7:56 am

based in annapolis?

7:56 am

and when is the last time you used that phrase for someone not in the military trif?

7:56 am

it is all a tempest in a teapot..my granfather served in ww2 and when the blitz was going on and he was putting out fires,i dont think he gave a damn about the way what he was doing was worded,he did it for live,for his family and for his country

7:56 am

agreed crossie...nor did anyone else

7:56 am

for love*

7:56 am

i did get tired of it - the 10 would have been fine, lol - it's THE emphasis i don't like

7:57 am

i do what i do for my family and my country crossy

7:57 am

I thanked the fire chief and some members of his department last week, jmc, and I thanked the cop up at the bus stop a couple of weeks ago.

7:57 am

hey crossy! i thought you had left

7:57 am

and they DO call govt employes CIVIL SERVICE

7:57 am

good for you trif!

7:57 am

nope,was checking the bacon supplies...

7:57 am

as opposed to MILITARY service

7:57 am

legend, have you served on any submarines? I used to have a friend down in Norfolk who did, and I have lost touch with him - wouldn't it be amazing if you knew him? He is about your age

7:58 am

ah! doing choc covered today crossy?

7:58 am

if the program had been called life in the military service i would have had no objection

7:58 am

ahh the silent servie;))

7:58 am

i will leave to let the chog cool down

7:59 am

sorry i brought controversy but i merely replied to a question

7:59 am

8:09 am

tread carefully -- it can be a right old black hole

8:09 am

Good morning, jmc. What the heck is a babblet inmho?

8:44 am

okay, babble nation - opinions please: it will cost at least $800 to fix the bumper on my car, with my deductible being $500. Bought the car in April, I think. Go ahead and get it fixed, or live with crumply bumper?

8:45 am

Trif, what is the year of the car?

8:45 am

rusting probability, Trif, if it's not fixed?

8:46 am

2009. not sure if it will rust - bumper is fiberglass, I am thinking

8:46 am

I would fix the bumper.

8:46 am

sigh. Yes, I guess you are right.

8:47 am

Mr. hate is gonna have a FIT. Right before christmas too. sigh

Mr. hate's fit is HIS problem

I'm new at Babble- have been addicted to Wordsplay.net

I am working on the next to last section of the paper and will finish by noon (that's the plan). then I will take a break and attack the first revision. with luck I will be done with the paper by 9 pm and ready for the day tomorrow. *smoking pipe of no one knows what*

12:22 pm

oh Enomis, I am so sorry you are under the weather. I am just motivated by using the time I have allotted for play in the best way...

12:22 pm

I am impressed...

12:23 pm

I am home because of tummy trouble... otherwise would still be in the classroom observing.

12:23 pm

but I'd rather tummy issues than sneezing and head cold issues.

12:23 pm

ok I bow to your superior time management skill - as for me, I will go to the list like a good girl!

12:24 pm

good thinking, Enomis!

12:24 pm

My father was in the AF for 22 years.

I am a brat

1:44 pm

ohhhhhhh so that's ... it all makes so much more sense now. thank you for your service, and i'm sorry the gov't has been so cavalier about using that service.

1:44 pm

Thank you for speaking up about such important issues, BR. I've a vet friend in Nebraska who is getting treatment through VA for her PTSD, and is maintaining a job, though as you mention, it's due to her daughter that she does that.

Hi DC - who is that in your flicker photos? What happened to him?

1:46 pm

that's my Tom, immediately post-up from a Septal Myectomy - a form of open heart surgery. They''d just extubated him, and had not hung a PCA yet.

1:46 pm

he's looking MUCH better since then :D

1:46 pm

more soon photo-wise

1:47 pm

Goodmorning everyone. Hurshy - a niece! how lovely

1:48 pm

hi, lyn

1:52 pm

oh, yes. :) she is now 36 days old.

1:53 pm

She is sister for your nephew? her coloring seems quite different

1:54 pm

adorable, hurshy!

1:55 pm

she is and it is! people can't believe they are brother and sister!

Glad he is better. How scary

1:55 pm

how many words today?

1:55 pm

lyn, people don't percieve my sister and i as siblings always. She got dad's family's olive complection with mom's family's blonde hair. i got mom's light skin and dad's dark hair.

1:55 pm

1:57 pm

Yes Ata

1:58 pm

ty

Wow, lil monkey, just looked at the flicker photos from the babble party! How fun! Wish I were closer!

The next time I know I will be in the area, I shall make an announcement - maybe we could all meet!

2:01 pm

oh the party at dorens house? yes me too! i think they were meeting about the same time you , Tom & I were slurping soup at the vietnamese place

2:01 pm

we're very much looking forward to it, lil*

2:01 pm

and that would be lovely, science

2:01 pm

oh sorry, not you sciencegeek, I meant the same time dcsein and I were meeting

2:01 pm

sorry got confused there

2:01 pm

yes, they met at the same time we were having ur sopu

2:02 pm

geek, if you live in Texas, you can arrange a meet-up with kje. she lives in Texad

2:02 pm

kje is a lot of fun

kje lives in Dallas I am in Houston!

2:04 pm

How far apart are they?

2:04 pm

what's that, like 2 hours apart?

now more like 5

texas is only the size of a country

2:05 pm

maybe you could meet in the middle, and each drive 2 hours

2:05 pm

so you meet in Buffalo, that's about halfway

2:05 pm

there's a Buffalo in Texas?

right buffalo we could hang out at the sonic!

2:06 pm

yes, monkey

there is nothing in buffalo

2:06 pm

i figured :)

We have Buffalo, Milano, Paris, etc

all small towns

2:08 pm

dcseain, is there much flooding near you right now?

2:08 pm

no, just rain so far

2:09 pm

and i took flood-prone roads to Vienna last night. wet, but the runs aren't very high

2:09 pm

It's terrible here... several bridges are closed, tunnels are closed, everything's flooded. We were let go early at work today, and no work tomorrow

2:10 pm

wow

2:10 pm

seeing as you're closer to the source of rain we're getting, and you're lower, that makes sense.

2:10 pm

chesapeake bay bridge tunnel closed

2:10 pm

no tunnels, not much can happen down there

2:10 pm

Is that normal for ths time of year LilM? sounds bad

2:10 pm

that storm is swirling over us and it's stalled

2:11 pm

they are predicting a lot of gloom and doom, esp for high tide today at 5

2:11 pm

(((((((EVERYONE))))))) lunchtime, break for me, I HATE WRITING PAPERS!

2:11 pm

no not normal Lynxx, it's a nor'easter ( a big storm like a hurricane)

2:11 pm

wait wait -- they CLOSED the BAY TUNNEL??? *gasp* that sounds really scary. I have been through it zillions of times.

2:12 pm

they showed pics of the beach eroding at Nags Head, and they showed a house on stilts collapsing into the waves

2:12 pm

nasty! keep safe (and dry) LilM

2:12 pm

Mother used to hate driving through the tunnel.

2:12 pm

yes stid, we're having a bad nor'easter

2:12 pm

Hi Stid

2:12 pm

oh gee monkey -- are you okay? I know seain's further inland.

2:12 pm

I wonder if my bestest friend is okay back there. she's a teacher, though, probably in school.

hi stid!

2:13 pm

I"m OK, I live right on the York River in Yorktown and it's flooding here but I'm high and dry, thank goodness

2:13 pm

i'm also 3 hours further north, stid

2:13 pm

so, down to 28 earlier, about 15 minutes to play right now.

2:13 pm

no, stid, all school is cancelled today and tomorrow

Well we always get the horrible hurricanes and tropical storms. flooding is our first name here

2:14 pm

I am glad for that Monkey, we lived in Newport News. I remember some bad storms as a child (water flooding the streets) but nothing like what you are describing so close to home.

2:14 pm

hello science!

2:14 pm

okay, so she'll be at home. Maybe I will call her in a bit and just check on them.

2:14 pm

stid, I live in Yorktown village... just a little north of Newport News, closer to Williamsburg.

2:15 pm

ah, okay, I know where you are then. (((hugs))) hope the trees stay put, that was our biggest worry in storms, the tall white oaks in our neighborhood.

2:16 pm

hello stidmama...15 left for me...too nasty to go out and play today so guess I'll just babble...

2:16 pm

hello MPittore.

2:16 pm

yes me too! already many tree branches on the road when I left work... they let us go at 10:30

2:16 pm

glad you are at least at home, I would find it hard to work in weather such as you are having.

2:17 pm

i have 1 qu4, 2 qu5 and 1 qu6... what am I missing?

2:17 pm

actually, having trouble working with a sunny day (unusual) ... I HATE writing papers.

2:17 pm

another qu5 (just found it myself)

2:17 pm

thanks lynxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

2:18 pm

go lynxxx! go monkey!

2:18 pm

stid...I don't have those worris anymore...retired from NIH when I was 55 6 years ago...how did I ever find time to work--LOL-- life is good! *happy face*

2:18 pm

thanks for the qu4...

2:19 pm

typo should have said worries...

what is the topic of your paper, stid?

2:19 pm

happy retirement, MPittore! i have about 30 years before I retire... unless I flunk out of this program. (considers ditching paper and flunking out)

2:20 pm

It's a ghastly synthesis paper, the full details of which were not given until a week ago tomorrow, and last weekend with one thing and another I got very little done. trying to write a MAJOR term paper in three days is not fun (and I don't have the health to stay up late and still function days)

2:20 pm

whew, finding that other qu5 has strained my lil*monkey brain cells

2:20 pm

O Nobly Born, O you of glorious origins, remember your radiant true nature, the essence of mind. Trust it. Return to it. It is home. —The Tibetan Book of the Dead

2:20 pm

no go go go stidmama...lay down that foundation so you can retire early like I did...it was worth the work on the front end!

not fun and not easily accomplished!

2:21 pm

I won't retire early -- will be 75 when I retire! at least.

2:21 pm

(((BR))) you say the sweetest things! *grin*

2:21 pm

you said it, science!

if you like writing, however, it may flow easily. sometimes i work best under pressure (procrastinator here)

2:21 pm

Hello, stid

2:23 pm

it flows, but I also need to support the statements with data from the assigned readings. the notes I took are inadequate to the task. previous writing that was supposed to be easily modified to suit this task came back with little feedback and is useless. *grumble*

i also believe you will not be short for words!

what class is this for???

2:23 pm

it's the master's in teaching program. we don't have "classes" it's an integrated full-time thing.

2:24 pm

there. under 20. listing.

2:25 pm

so, when you get you get your MA, you cannot say Class of 2010?

2:25 pm

stid keep the faith oh mighty young one...news flash for you-- 75 is the new 55 *grinning ear to ear*

oh yes i had in friend who did that also. too much work for me!

2:26 pm

nope. cohort of 2011 -- it's a two-year program.

2:26 pm

on the other hand, if I survive, I will be better prepared to teach than many beginning teachers. I hope.

2:27 pm

c's complete!

2:27 pm

Bye everyone

2:27 pm

(((lynxxx))) have a lovely day

2:27 pm

hello, lyn

2:27 pm

yes MPittore, I am counting on having a few golden years when I retire to sit and do nothing at all.

2:29 pm

be well, lyn

two year program here also. i just thought it was way too much work for not enough salary increase. don't think that it would impact my teaching much at all

2:29 pm

stid, i'm sure you'll do smashingly

2:30 pm

we spend about one of the years actually in classrooms, science -- student teaching and observing.

it was also an expensive program....5k

2:30 pm

there's the alarm. down to ten. will take a nap, write some more and back around 6 your time monkey and seain

that's the good side of it - anything practical is useful and meaningful. i did not learn anything in my "teacher" classes

2:30 pm

yes, VERY expensive, science. but the extra 15 G or so a year will make up for it.

they dont pay us 15k for taking the course. only 3k/yr

2:31 pm

stid...well I'm not much on sitting and drooling here I find myself running most every day, we travel, play, what ever we want...it is a blast...

2:31 pm

thanks for the support, friends. this is "one of those days" for me, and i really appreciate it.

go stid go!

2:32 pm

LOL MPittore! you and jill and flosey and my mother ... seems people who babble never really stop. (I am doomed). LOL see you-all later! *poof*

2:35 pm

later stid...go rest those thinking cells and refresh your mind and get that paper off your shoulders just start writing...proofing and editing will take care of any garbage...sometimes you just have to jump into the middle and churn out something...you can do just a little confidence will build you up! Sunshine on you stid!

2:42 pm

6:12 pm

I bet jmc needs fi + a mispelled pool stick

the R at the bottom left is ra 4, it's like a sort of prince, I think

6:25 pm

ooo more bourbon

6:26 pm

6:26 pm

I have about three more minutes to play...

6:26 pm

the exact quote about change is:You are less interested changing the world than in dealing with things as they are. Unlike those who spend all their time trying to solve problems, you prefer to zero in on things that work and stick with them.

9:54 pm

NEFFIE!!! you are not boring!

9:55 pm

Nef is still smarting from her psych test!

9:55 pm

but th epoint is I am never normal so I would not know that

9:55 pm

9:56 pm

oh Nef- I did not know that ! I would have used a different word. hope i did not offend

11:52 pm

yvw Jee...

11:52 pm

congrats, stid!! :)

11:52 pm

I will review it one more time in the morning to see how bad it is, and turn it in when class starts at 10. If I am well enough to go to class, I was NOT well today.

11:52 pm

another clue anyone?

11:52 pm

hope you're feeling better tho, stid!

11:53 pm

I hope so too pini -- it's not influenza or a cold, it's either an allergy or a bacterial bug I picked up.

11:53 pm

if you've finished your paper...why look at it again...it will only make you anxious if you find something but don't have time to do anything about it - you don't need to second guess yourself, dear!

11:53 pm

well, stid...throw it back!

11:54 pm

(the bug, I mean)

11:54 pm

I need to check one last time to be sure I expunged all the notes to myself that were inline. And to check the citations for format again. I was pretty tired, and had left all that for last.

11:54 pm

I will have time to fix minor errors, and it's actually supposed to be merely a draft... though one of the teachers was insistent we treat it as final.

11:55 pm

well, ok then...

11:55 pm

anyone got any good music cranking atm? I have a mix of Cog, Butterfly Effect, CandleBox and The Fray :)

11:55 pm

So I have treated it as final, which I hope means there will be fewer last-minute changes later

11:55 pm

not me, MissO...it's nearly 10pm...and I don't want to wake Koda ;)

11:55 pm

and I still HATE writing papers.

11:55 pm

ah fair call Pini, its 655 here

11:55 pm

I'm listening to Il Divo

11:56 pm

oh nice Flos, havent had my Divo on, in aggges
