NM got the e tool

12:37 am

I'm almost ashamed to say it....fireworks.

12:37 am

oh!! I see why......duhh

12:37 am

Yeah peach!

12:37 am

hooray for peach!

12:37 am

Look again Aloha - I did the same thing. Route isn't in the grid.

12:37 am

well now I don't.......route

12:37 am

fireworks and thanks to anyone who cares to go to http://communityforce.natwest.com and place a vote for Friends of Williamson's Tunnels project 5132 to win £6000 funding for preservation of historic unusual site in Liverpool. Thanks all

12:37 am

aloha that is what we call a phantom

12:38 am

a phantom? but why?

12:38 am

aloha, the o doesn't touch the r so route doesn't work

12:39 am

It's a phantom because you keep seeing it even tho it's not there.

12:39 am

oh yes....ok........<lifts wine>

12:39 am

wd scouser

12:39 am

<--- joins in a toast to aloha

12:40 am

and the more wine you drink the more phantoms you see - voice of experience

12:40 am

tks eh? <grin>

12:40 am

"sprout" is a phantom too

12:40 am

lol jil.....I see that now........tks for the help

12:41 am

yw aloha

12:41 am

Why is the paint fluid OK in plural but not in singular?

12:41 am

no neil tonight?

12:41 am

its abbreviation

12:41 am

as enable, roses

12:41 am

*ask

12:41 am

was looking for neil..........old friend

12:41 am

hi ruru

12:41 am

grammar it is abbreviation

12:42 am

is there a way to go to enable to ask?

12:42 am

don't think so, roses

12:43 am

Strictly the fluid should not be in the grid but it is very accepted usage of an abbreviated word

12:43 am

hang around, aloha -- he may show up

12:43 am

strange cos even the plural word is an abbreviation

12:43 am

but neil will breeze through this in about 5 seconds

12:43 am

Oh, one of those things that just is, huh?

12:44 am

presumably it was originally short for t***entine spirit(s)

12:44 am

I hang ....I know.....I played scrabble with him, Mr. word

12:44 am

lots of slany abbreviations are okay here, it seems

12:44 am

*slangy -- sheesh

12:44 am

well Sunday morning here - will get on with the day and see you all tomorrow

12:45 am

Aloha you have to learn all the currencies of the world too

12:45 am

Bye ursh -- au demain

12:45 am

aha..........tks for that clue

12:45 am

I am really stuck

12:45 am

I looked at the dictionary abbreviation, and apparently the plural is something altogether different, a slang that for some reason is OK.

12:45 am

what you stuck with ruru?

12:46 am

I need one a in the corner .. I have as4

12:46 am

aloha, if you click on my icon and scroll down a bit you will come to an imaginary description of Enable, the supplier of the dictionary used here.

12:46 am

as 7/32, ruru

12:47 am

I'm an ijit........all my words are 4 letters long

12:47 am

just extend the as4

12:47 am

thank you jilli

12:47 am

yw ru

12:47 am

ru carry on from what you have and go up one then down and down left

12:47 am

I have sp 4 on the s.. in the corner missing?

12:48 am

Clued earlier ruru. Don't recall what time.

12:48 am

OH MY!! thats' good to know jillibus.......I love Salt Spring Island :)

12:48 am

add a masculin pronoun to the sp4, ruru

12:49 am

so you've been here, aloha???

12:49 am

thank you jilli

12:49 am

I have me4 what's the other m?

12:49 am

I grew up in Canada.......Alberta, but I know BC well...lived in Vancouver for many years

12:49 am

never mind

12:49 am

wow, aloha!

12:50 am

ruru, it's another me4

12:50 am

12:50 am

12:50 am

12:50 am

12:50 am

ruru, hoot means it's me 4/6

12:51 am

hi jilli - been a while -how are you?

12:51 am

I am.........I manage a small resort on Maui

12:51 am

yep - out of practice cluing

12:51 am

whoa -- that's good to know!

12:51 am

think cats ru

12:52 am

Hello Aloha welcome to the insane asylum

12:53 am

I've been to Maui once -- stayed at a huge hotel -- Aston Kaanipali Shores

12:53 am

thanks hoot.......nice to be welcomed ......aloha!

12:54 am

oh Jilli......you need to stay at my place :) small, cozy, affordable, <not sure if advertising is allowed>

12:54 am

always glad to see a new sucker.:D Have they warned you about Enable ideosyncracies?

12:54 am

I liked Napili beach better than Kaanapali

12:54 am

I live in Napili

12:55 am

Ka'anapali is known as "dig me beach" for obvious reasons :)

12:55 am

aloha, that sounds divine -- maybe another year -- how perfect!

12:56 am

I'm going to Australia this year.

12:56 am

help with the ou's?

12:56 am

I've not had the inclination to go to OZ, but I LOVED New Zealand..........was there for a month a couple of years ago

12:56 am

nm

12:56 am

I need to win a lotto or something! I wanna go too!

12:56 am

got them

12:57 am

the as was the worst ru - rest a piece of cake

12:57 am

The only reason I went to Ka'anapali (sorry I missed the apostrophe) was because a nephew and his wife had won a trip there and my bro- and sis-in-law and I joined them.

12:58 am

I have cousins on OZ -- and mrpresident and Lickety are there.

12:59 am

lucky me -- I knew the as7 word (pre-med comes in handy sometimes)

12:59 am

lol.........on the apostrophe.........most folks don't GET the glottal, but hope you enjoyed Maui.....my daughter is Hawaiian.....

1:00 am

When I was living in NY some friends moved to Oz. Sold their house and everything in it and took off. He ahd a job lined up and everything.

1:00 am

Fireworks! Wow, I am impressed with myself! No list or anything!

1:00 am

that was in about 1998, I think

1:00 am

Oh good job, roses!

1:00 am

so ...how to upload a pic and make a profile in here?

1:00 am

A month later they were back saying the bugs were HUGE! Chickens!

1:00 am

<even tho I can only find 4 letter words>

1:00 am

Thanks Jilli.

1:01 am

Welcome Aloha.

1:01 am

tks roses :) nice ....everyone is so friendly

1:01 am

You must pay a one-time fee ($14.95)...

1:01 am

you have to go "pro" first, aloha -- costs about $15 just once in a lifetime.

1:01 am

Sometimes the four letter words are hard. Need to remember some of them. aka Babblets.

1:02 am

Aloha - babble take patience. Enable is weird. You'll get used to it and plenty of people around to help!

1:02 am

I just did that

1:02 am

Wow!

1:02 am

Sweet dreams all. I'm off. See you tomorrow.

1:02 am

not like I'm a real pro, but I did pay for that

1:02 am

aloha roses

1:02 am

you paid? Someone wake up DrGod!

1:03 am

lol.........maybe he'll cash my check tomorrow :)

1:03 am

Do you see "My Account" in the upper right corner of the page?

1:03 am

I do

1:03 am

WAIT A MINUTE Roses I'm sorry - welcome to bable!

1:03 am

ok.........lol........dare I click on that?

1:03 am

Well, aloha, fill in your profile and check the litle box, upper right in your My Account -- then your flag will show and you will get info on getting an icon.

1:04 am

Yup!

1:04 am

tks Jill..........lol........I'm off for now, but will check that out. Please, if anyone sees my favorite little reprobate, Neil, pass along a hello and a smooch

1:05 am

Will do, Aloha...

1:05 am

Will do, Aloha -- bye for now

1:06 am

1:13 am

*Is

1:13 am

Bye, jilli

1:13 am

1:14 am

No thanks!

1:14 am

Fireworks!

1:14 am

ok, I'm gone then...*poof

1:14 am

Thanks for the offer!

1:14 am

YAY jellen!...*repoof

hi, anyone left for this shortie - the game not, me - well, actually, me ;)

1:25 am

lol - hi shortie

OUTIE is a word! how else to describe that sort of bellybutton?

hi, yourself KT!

1:26 am

prezactly

1:26 am

I have a pathetically sporadic connection, so please don't be offended if I keep disappearing

s'OK

1:28 am

Don't think I'm going to go further than 27 - I'm stumped

these small ones are stinkers. I've got all of 17.

off to lickety

1:30 am

There's a thought - if my connection can handle it :)

well, if opens in another tab, so once you have it you can toggle back and forth.

1:33 am

The tab is just spinning. Oh why did I leave Joburg and move to this hick town? :(

ah, just checked your flag! are you stuck with dial up?

27 so far

1:36 am

No I had HSUPA (broadband) or 3G - but that's not available here apparently, so it's picking up something it calls GPRS whatever that is. Belongs to one of the mobile groups

1:37 am

We're near some mountains so I was hoping there'd be a signal tower nearby, but apparently not

ah, I don't know from wireless.

Amazing the things we take for granted, such as chatting halfway around the world! :)

1:40 am

Well, I'll find the service provider in town someday and ask their advice in setting up a better connection. I guess it's a small sacrifice to make when living in such beautiful scenery

1:41 am

good morning all. What is the verdict? Small and so over, or tiny and tight?

1:41 am

Johannesburg is such a metropolis I did take it for granted that I could chat to anyone in the world. Forgot there are places that can't do the same.

hi sprite, the second half is tricky, i'd say.

1:41 am

Small and a headache, sprite. Good morning :)

1:42 am

hey melon :D Ok, diving in then!

Good evening... what's left of it. Or morning.

1:42 am

hi Kaytee!

when you get a good connection KT you can post photos on flickr. Would love to see where you live.

Geez, this is small.

Glad my date didn't say that to me last night.

1:42 am

hi neil, too small! We will have to do some letterblox today to keep in form.

Yesss sprite!

hi, neil!

1:44 am

that would have been... painful

Hi melon! :)

My first phantom: slouch

mine was spurt, and outre.

1:45 am

This is too frustrating - both the grid and my connection. So I'll say cheers before it spoils my mood. Have a lot of unpacking to do still, so as the day begins, I'm going to be productive rather than pull my hair out. Have a fabulous day (or night) everyone

Aww. Too badk Kaytee Jay.

Too bad, even.

1:45 am

I hope the better connection will work out, KT. It is nice to have good internet, wherever you live ;)

likewise KT. Keep your hair and come back tomorrow ;)

1:46 am

you too, KT.

"Outre" is a word my dad's g/f likes to use... for him. She just doesn't know what else to refer to him as.

1:47 am

as in 'my other'?

is he rather bohemian?

Yes, sprite.

33 down. I'm guessing the ou6/7 starts with OUT but after tha I'm stuck.

Ummm, a little maybe, but not really? He's on G+ if you wanna check him out.

1:48 am

well, it isn't that bad. I keep it simple, my husband, friend, pal, mate etc I simply call my love.

s'OK. I have G+ but it's one network too many.

Aren't we connected there? Thought we were?

Or am I all confused?

sweet, sprite.

If not we should, since you're there anyway.

I don't log on regularly, will have to check tho not now.

I thought we had... but could be losing my mind.

1:49 am

lol melon, but for some it is confusing. They think I have a husband AND a love, and that the love is my lover. Well he is, but he is one and the same.

lucky you! Remeber Mary Well's songe "Two lovers"?

What's your Google/Gmail username? Same as on your Yahoo address?

That's good, sprite. :)

1:50 am

not from the top of my head... will check it out, melon

1:51 am

I remember the song, melonhead

it should be my actual name.

OK, I'm going back to the grid. tty L8r.

1:52 am

teys

got the ou 6 &* 7 :))

1:52 am

sorry

I'm on lastfm right now - Coltrane!

1:53 am

it is playing now, melon :) WTG on the biggies... was your assumption about the start correct?

hi joey!

1:53 am

hi joey

All three names, melon?

Phillies fan I see. I like both Tony LaRussa and Ron Washington (Ron's an ex-Indian) so I'm watching the WS for the game, not rooting.

I'm logged in there now [just posted an update] so I could send you an invite to connect.

all three

1:54 am

hi all. spent 4 hours at Rangers stadium tonight, watching the game

1:55 am

Hello

1:55 am

hey Jellen :) *hug* How are you today?

1:55 am

i was really hoping for a Rangers - Phillies WS.

1:55 am

I'm okay, sprite. And you?

Ok melon... trying that. Hi, Jellen! :)

And joey. :)

1:56 am

yeah, am ok too.

so, you wallow. I loll.

hi Jellen

1:57 am

my phantom of today is courtesy

1:57 am

isn't that the truth... Courtesy has all but gone away.

Ok melon... send it, hope you got it ok?

Too (sadly) true, joey.

1:58 am

alas, too true. But the occasions you come across it are all the more valuable.

Very true, sprite.

1:58 am

Neil, has anyone told you that a friend of yours just joined Babble?

1:58 am

you are so right, sprite

Huh, Jellen?

Messenger?

1:59 am

Guess not :-P

6 to go

1:59 am

lol

1:59 am

go melon gooooo

re: watching the game, joey, how fun!

Uh, I knew Blue had joined a while ago, Jellen... but not that she went pro. Very cool. :)

oh-oh, the red bar of death!

re: watching the game, joey, how fun!

re: watching the game, joey, how fun!

Yep. The "hiccup".

Did you get that G+ invitation ok, melon? Hope I had the address right.

2:03 am

melon, just the regular hiccup

2:03 am

it was fun - I have tickets to tomorrow and Monday also.

2:03 am

Love your icon, melon!

2:03 am

sounds good, joey :)

Several other Babblers are on there in our network too, melon... you'll see them.

Jellen, my sis gave me that name years ago. I took it to heart!

2:05 am

it is a grand name, melon, I love it

ah, we're back no more red box of death. I was letterbloxing for a while there.

2:06 am

evil hiccup

4 to go!

Oh, you joined OMGPOP? :)

I didn't get a notice that you had... weird?

Did you see what I asked you further down the chog, melon?

2:10 am

8 to go and no brick wall yet... could be worse for a tiny.

dunno. Neil, I'm an old lady, there's only so much multitasking I can do!

2:11 am

I know the feeling, melon!

2:12 am

fireflies! Except for the biggies and the ^%&$^%& catsound, not a hard grid.

uno!

2:13 am

go melon go go goooooo

feu d'artifice!

2:13 am

Hooray for sprite!

taDah to sprite.

2:13 am

wtg melon and thank you Jellen :)

And moi.

2:13 am

Hooray for melon!

Aww. You are not old, melon. And I saw you were on OMGPOP when I logged in just now, but now are not. sprite and several other Babblers are members there. I should send you their page links, so you can connect with them all. :)

But what I asked you, is if you got my G+ invitation ok? I hope I sent it to the right address?

לילה טוב לכֻלם

2:15 am

wow... that looks impressive. A good day or night to you too, melon :)

which is to say bonne nuit à tout mes amis! nite nite! {poof}

Oh ok.

Lailah tov!

2:16 am

Bye, melon

2:16 am

I am off too, have fun all!

2:16 am

Bye, sprite

there you are, Neil {re-poof}

I'm here, but you're repoofing?

לילה טוב לכֻלם

האם אתה כאן או לא, מלון?

Ugh. Why did Babble put the question mark at the wrong end of that?

2:20 am

9 to go, maybe when I get up, I'll finish!

Ok, I'm poofing too... take care everyone.

2:20 am

G'night, mom and Neil

2:21 am

Think I'll try for some sleep now...

2:21 am

*poof*

2:56 am

I can't believe how small this sunday grid is! :(

3:19 am

ridiculous for a sunday! how are you doing?

for real??? the T is the letter with the most words of 6?? urgh

3:19 am

mey mrp, big FAAAAT thank you for the list, the list is a watershed thingy - with it, the game is heaven, without, it's hell

3:20 am

hello, gort. I never use it so always get stuck

ah gort! thanks darling! I guess less people would play babble without the list, but it was available before lickety's list... only not in the format it is presented in :))

3:21 am

10 left, one of this, one of that

3:21 am

hey there ruby. how have you not nibbled your own arm off in listless madness?

3:21 am

9! just my nails

gort, ruby uses clues from babblers hunny

3:21 am

yes, but I still don't finish

3:22 am

(not today, mrp)

we all play different. did you know that some people think that listing and getting clues off the chog is cheating??? LOL!!! i haven't seen the rule that says that!

3:22 am

yeah me too, and cool as they are, they're just not enough, but then i am more cute than smart

3:22 am

I love when they come off the chog, but today, nobody was here when I came on

hi kids (((hugs)))

sue, pearl, une, deb et al :))

6:44 am

how have you been doing, mrp?

doing it tough deb... have to move in less than 3 weeks, and have nothing to move into! store my stuff and live in a hotel/motel??

6:46 am

oh dear!!! you could store your stuff here, but I'm a little far from Australia :)

I can barely watch TV anymore (unless it is sport) cause all I see is the 'enriched lives' of advertisers telling me that I can get a smile from their product.... I can get a smile from looking at my children and getting a hug from them! ha to them spending so much money on nothing (in my opinion anyway) LOL!!

i did facebook an emotion, and will continue to work to getting happier.

how are you going deb?? things ok with you hunny?

6:49 am

I agree mrp!!! I don't have TV at my house - didn't like most of what was on and hated commercials. I live pretty simply. what do you mean about the facebook emotion? I'm doing pretty well, thank you :)

deb, i put some info out on my profile... about situations that happen... and those that can and can't be helped

6:54 am

i'm on FB, want to be friends there?

6:55 am

if you do just search for debbie jedele

sure deb... i am there as michelle matula. wearing my black ref outfit :)) so sexy! LOL

i really enjoy FB friends from Babble... has been so refreshing to read up on what is going on, be a part of lives and enjoy the love.

deb, do you have a white cat on your profile pic in FB

you know when you are really chronic? when you are a true babble addict?..well a few min ago,i actually caught myself looking at my finished grid for more hidden words lol

4:12 pm

tee hee

4:13 pm

I found more than half my words using my phone before I got up. Also a sign of addiction, I suspect.

4:13 pm

i still think there is a spot for a 10x10 5000 word monthly grid along with the regular one:)

4:13 pm

sadly there are many signs sue

4:13 pm

monthly would be about right. And then we'd have a month to find all the words, right?

4:14 pm

babbling with a tablet while going potty is another one

4:14 pm

ever been in a waiting room and telling the doctor to take his next patient as you we on your last word?? another sign

4:15 pm

taking a subway to the stop after yours just so you can finish a grid..another sign

4:50 pm

hello crossy! How are you, dear?

4:50 pm

4:51 pm

no, nef, I have hardly been playing. I am teaching two drama workshops in addition to normal work schedule, and secondo's field hockey schedule this week is NUTS due to rescheduled games that were rained out, so this is my calm before the storm.

4:52 pm

well done crossy! I assume you are then chatting with me whilst also surfing web sites planning your long-awaited visit to meet up with all us babblers in Boston, right? :)

4:53 pm

4:57 pm

Yes, and maybe you and Elegant will too!

4:58 pm

no; DH's Aunty just passed away after an illness and a fire in her building; so she was living here. DH and my grandson also require more attention (DIL has health problems too). My hip is healed well though

4:59 pm

I am happy to hear about your hip, nef, but wow....that other stuff is a lot for any soul to bear. I am thinking of you....

5:01 pm

thanks, Trifi. Being retired helps a lot! :-) I'm doing okay with it so far.

5:02 pm

are you finding you are adjusting well to the different pace of retirement?

5:04 pm

I'm hoping I will soo! :-) I retired Sept. 9th; Aunty died Sept. 29th; the funeral was 10/5 and burial (up north) was 10/ 14. I'm hoping that things will settle down now

5:04 pm

whew! I hope so too!

5:05 pm

5:07 pm

6:32 pm

lol

6:33 pm

hey neill.. you'll get a kick out of my icon

Haha! I have to let you know who know about that. I'll send him the link to your profile.

I still see your dog icon in here. Refreshing.

I bet that little dog in your icon picture would do better than some.

6:46 pm

certainly better than Chris -whatever his name is..

Allen. And it's "Kris".

6:49 pm

no wonder I"ve already forgotten him..lol

6:50 pm

fireworks - and no list

6:52 pm

hi all

6:52 pm

hey JMC

6:52 pm

whoo hoo wv

Hi jmc.

6:53 pm

<---really bored with the fireworks thing

Bored with it?

You want balloons? Streamers?

Confetti?

6:54 pm

for me only.. not for others.. I just don't make a big deal about it anymore.

Oh, yeah. I don't announce it.

6:55 pm

so many fireworks.. so little time..lol

6:55 pm

i do -- don't get it that often

6:55 pm

get what?

I was saying that for a while too.

6:56 pm

fw

Until this weekend.

Oh, fireworks!

6:56 pm

oh.. well.. you just have to apply your self jmc..lol

6:56 pm

nah i apply myself to what i care about

6:56 pm

good for you neil.. those are the best fireworks

Yep. :)

6:59 pm

if we can't make ourselves known in the chat without your putdowns - i guess it is just best to withdraw from the chat

7:00 pm

what?

7:00 pm

i am sorry wv i didn't see a put down and i hope you will not withdraw from the chat

7:00 pm

I was just saying that is just for me teach..

7:01 pm

people have been awfully sensitive in the chog lately--i wish we would all give each other the benefit of the doubt

7:01 pm

A lot of people still get excited about finishing.. I'm happy for them.. I mostly enjoy the chat

7:03 pm

well the chat has been getting kinda of thin and i hoped it was the grids were too overwhelming

7:05 pm

I have noticed people being a bit touchy in the chat lately..wonder what is going on there?

Whose putdowns? Huh, wvteach?

7:06 pm

well i am not sure but i have had several side conversations where people accused others of being rude or ignoring them

7:06 pm

who knows neil.. she might have misinterpreted something..

I can't see anything?

Maybe whatever it was has scrolled off the viewable "chog" page?

7:07 pm

i have tried a few times to suggest we should give each other the benefit of the doubt and assume that people mean well and not take offense

7:07 pm

i think that ruru's comment about not being into FW came right after wv's announcement about getting fw, and it was just bad timing. two separate convos...

7:07 pm

good plan jmc

Oh I see, yes. ruru doesn't put anyone down.

7:07 pm

i suspect you are right hoya

7:08 pm

okay who are you and what did you do with the real ruru?

7:08 pm

I try not to .. that's for sure

Aww. Sorry to see that happen, ruru. It's a shame if anyone takes you that way because I can tell how well-intentioned you are.

7:08 pm

neil you have never been on with ru and kje?

7:08 pm

i am teaching my 5-yo about giving people the benefit of the doubt. makes for a more pleasant existence.

Not sure, jmc... think I might have. why?

7:08 pm

It's okay..she'll be fine...

7:09 pm

kje picks on me...

7:09 pm

and you NEVER pick on kje ;-)

7:09 pm

*blinks*

7:09 pm

me?

7:10 pm

haha!

7:10 pm

how many points today?

Yes. I was jumped on one night this past week when the conversation was about limericks, and all I did was mention that Laura [Fauxmage on here] had written a hilarious one about me. Was going to share it... not because it's about me, but because it's so funny/witty. But got asked if everything's about me. So I didn't bother after that, sheesh.

7:10 pm

*pokes ru*

7:10 pm

389

7:10 pm

ty

7:11 pm

no kidding.. that means mondays' is gonna be huge

7:11 pm

and in some countries the weekend is thursday and friday

Haha, jmc. Well, true.

7:11 pm

gotta have time to do the sunday crossword

7:11 pm

i am sorry i have been lax..it is now time for the ever popular crossy,s tidbit of the day!!

7:12 pm

Rain has never been recorded in some parts of the Atacama Desert in Chile.

Not necessarily, ruru. Most of them seem to be disappointingly small lately.

7:12 pm

*does little mary sunshine dance*

Uh oh. Bracing myself.

Really, crossy? Wow.

7:12 pm

surely that is not the only desert where that is true crossy

7:13 pm

must list with 2 words left!

7:13 pm

go hoya go

7:14 pm

and i give you a bonus tidbit for free...

7:14 pm

. Koalas and humans are the only animals that have finger prints.

7:14 pm

i love bonuses

Listening to some good tunes here. [Last.fm]

7:15 pm

i was into last fm for a bit...good site

7:16 pm

and since it meshes with our babble,it is even better

Sure is, I use it a lot.

Yep.

7:16 pm

wow! just checked..it has been 1098 days since i have used last fm..and that is sad;(

I've been using it since June of 2009.

7:17 pm

i am listening to gunsmoke

7:17 pm

fireworks!

Haha. I don't think that's accurate, crossy. It says I was "last seen" in August... but I'm on there now and often am. Have been many times since August.

7:18 pm

whoo hoo hoya!

Congrats, hoyamd!

7:18 pm

thx - last word was one i was sure i tried 3 times already

7:18 pm

i know how that is hoya

7:19 pm

my next-to-last was the me4/6 - a random collection of letters.

7:20 pm

*tips hat to her monkeys

7:20 pm

(i think they want bananas)

7:21 pm

ha!

It's the sound a cat makes, hoyamd.

7:21 pm

then they get my keyboard all mucky.

That's just one of a few acceptable spellings of it.

7:22 pm

well they are done for the night--let the poor things live it up

"Miaou" being one of the wierdest.

7:22 pm

ty neil

Oh, yw jmc. :)

7:23 pm

ok ok i will float them a banana to share. they only had to find one word.

Well I think they deserve at least one banana for that. They were helpful after all.

7:23 pm

that seems fair to me! haha

Is crossy still here? And ruru?

7:24 pm

hehe - gn all - off to veg in front of the tube.

7:24 pm

bye hoya

They show as "online".

7:24 pm

hey all

Good night, hoyamd... take care.

7:24 pm

hi jen

Hi Jen. :)

7:25 pm

small grid, huh?

7:25 pm

yep

7:25 pm

i am 1/2 through after only 20 minutes

7:26 pm

i haven't found 1 yet!

Yes, it's a pretty easy grid... especially for such a small one.

7:27 pm

finally!

7:27 pm

haha you will most of the a pretty normal

Yep.

7:27 pm

wtg jen

Wonder what happened to ruru and crossy?

Maybe they're too busy monkeying around.

7:28 pm

they are probably checking email or something simila

7:28 pm

r

Could be.

Or messing around on Last.fm, like me.

7:29 pm

there you go

morning all :)

Hi mrp! :)

7:29 pm

hi mr p

How are you... and how's it going there?

ok thanks, bloody hot!

Oh yeah?

7:31 pm

it was lovely and warm her i gots lots of gardening done after meeting for worship

I have some dishes to wash. I'm procrastinating.

And then dinner to make.

Ugh. I guess I should tackle that and get something on to cook.

got lots of organising done on the weekend, the packing part is always a bugger.

Oh good, mrp.

Yeah. Do you know where you're moving to yet?

7:32 pm

packing?

yeah, thanks neil... no idea where we are moving to... we don't have a place

Oh man. How soon do you have to move?

7:33 pm

oh dear!

Or is that dependent on when you find a place?

3 weeks today

Oh shit. You have to move then?

And you don't have a place yet?

have to move and hand in keys on 15th November... no ifs or buts

OMG. I hope you find a place SOON!

7:34 pm

why?

No place. no place to rent. there is just nothing out there and it is prohibitively expensive in Sydney.... this city is top 5 in the expensive city list

You must be stressed out by that alone. :(

7:35 pm

hi all

You might have to move somewhere outside of Sydney then, mrp.

Do whatever you have to.

7:35 pm

hi bfs

oh yeah! that is a stress that i struggle with

Hi bfsog.

hi bfsog

I bet, mrp. It would stress me out.

I've just moved myself, a couple of weeks ago.

if i don't get a home, i will end up in a hotel and all my stuff in storage. and moving out of sydney isn't an option.

Hey bfsog... we're the same age. That was a good year.

7:37 pm

well i will hold you in the Light mr p with all of your struggles

7:37 pm

1985 ?

thanks jmc :)

Yes. Same here, mrp.

Oh, no... December 29th of 1984.

7:38 pm

I am 1985,

Ok, so not the same year. I was just about to mention that actually, wondering.

7:38 pm

you are the same age as my son bfs

Since I'm right at the end of '84.

Then so am I, jmc.

7:38 pm

Turning 27 next year, crazy

7:39 pm

7:39 pm

hard to imagine for me really

Oh, I see. We're almost a year apart then.

Yep. I'm turning 27 in 2 months' time.

I'm sure I'll survive it though.

7:40 pm

i did

i remember turning 27... it was the year I got married

I bet, jmc... my mom says that about us all the time. We're 29 and 26 now. She says it was like yesterday to her, when we were kids.

7:40 pm

congrats mrp

7:40 pm

it was the year i started law school

actually, it was the year I was turning 28, but I was 27 when I got married :)

7:40 pm

im actually thinking of popping the question to my gf this year/next

I see, mrp. :)

Oh wow. bfsog. :)

7:41 pm

well i hope that turns for you then bfs

I hope I'm that lucky one of these days.

Gotta meet Ms. Right first.

7:42 pm

Not sure about this one.

7:42 pm

ms.?

Uh, I didn't mean that, bfsog. Haha! Don't swing that way.

Well yeah. "Miss" then.

7:43 pm

my father (Douglas Bass) sayd this is a very hate-filled babble grid

What do you mean, jmc?

Huh?

*said

7:43 pm

What photo of me could've given you that impression? Making me wonder now.

I didnt say it! My dad did!

7:44 pm

that photo of the event in arizona or somewhere

You mean that silly Hallowe'en pic where I'm dressed up in "drag" with makeup very badly applied? lol

I kinda agree with him

no hate here

7:44 pm

i was just wondering what he meant by that

the words are pretty easy I think

Oh that one! Haha. Well my gay brother dressed me funny, ok? I was there with him and his b/f at the time... and some friends of ours.

That was in Nevada though.

But no, I'm straight.

7:45 pm

oh okay well that explains that--not that it makes any diff i was just confused

ugh my headache is so bad! Its like my head is in a vi4!

7:45 pm

lots of people have had me pegged as a lesbian so whatever! haha

7:45 pm

i am so sorry pop!

Haha!

7:46 pm

to be kosher it would have to be made under the supervision of a rabbi -- there is a special kind but i forgot the name

Yeah, I've heard of that but I'm not exactly worried about it.

8:14 pm

so instead of being a hardass with cigarettes you'd be a ?

8:14 pm

cigarettes do not have a split hoof nor chew their cud

butt? Haha.

8:14 pm

I've never heard of anyone being concerned about the kashrut of their cigarettes.

We have Kosher Vegemite .

Exactly, Eva.

Not that I'm very observant anyway.

8:15 pm

why would anyone go to the trouble of making something as disgusting as vegemite kosher?

8:15 pm

you are in the minora-ity neil

8:15 pm

grona

*hits ruru*

8:15 pm

groan

8:15 pm

LOL

I've still gotta decide what I'm hitting you with all the time, ru.

Because Vegemite is awesome and the last time they tried to ditch the Kosher there was very unhappy Jewish people

Ok, back to the stove for a few.

8:16 pm

don't have the energy to check the list to see eactly what I'm missing

8:16 pm

apparently there are no kosher cigarettes

We also have kosher nutlex

8:17 pm

is that like nutella?

8:17 pm

apparently many rabbis believe that smoking is forbidden

No. It is nutty butter.

8:17 pm

is nutlex anything like netflix?

Sorry it has no dairy in it

8:17 pm

yes, for squirrels who love cinema

8:18 pm

what a nutty question ru

No Ru it has no movies :(

8:18 pm

haha eva!

Well you learn something new everyday. There is Kosher Meals on Wheels

8:19 pm

rats just as the chog is warming up i have to go be a good hostess!

8:19 pm

I worked for an organization which supervised a kosher kitchen for 11 years....cant tell you how glad I am to be away from the kosher nostra (i.e. vaad ha rabonim)

Of course there would be, herin. We get old too.

Or unwell.

8:19 pm

reminds me of my old jewish lady joke

It was something I never thought off

8:19 pm

I'm afraid to ask

I bet, Eva.

Uh oh.

Brace yourselves!

8:20 pm

it was rough when i had a strictly obsevant orthadox jew on my board

8:20 pm

*sits down for ru's joke*

That would be, jmc.

8:20 pm

you've never lived until you've made travel arrangements for orthodox students

Be warned, ruru... I found something to hit you with.

8:21 pm

hurry up ru i really must be going!

8:21 pm

there was this old jewish lady walking up the street in manhattan and stops and looks at a man and recognizes him and says" Moisha.. is that you"?

8:21 pm

i bet eva

No thanks, Eva. Making them for myself is enough work at times. :P

8:21 pm

he replies: "Yes Sophie.. it's me .. how are you"

Ok... and Moishe says?

Right...

8:21 pm

She says.. Moisha.. How long has it been since I've seen you.. 5 years?

8:21 pm

NO Moishe say ... longer

8:22 pm

just in case you ever wanted to know...there is a kosher ecological retreat camp in Costa Rica.

8:22 pm

She says ..has it been 10 years since I've seen you?

8:22 pm

*one foot out the door to the chog*

8:22 pm

He calmly says It has been 20 years since yo've seen me..

8:22 pm

don't go jm!!

lol jmc!

8:22 pm

20 years shes says.. how can you be so sure...

8:22 pm

He says I just got out of prison

8:23 pm

she says Prison.. why were you in prison?

8:23 pm

*leaning towards the outside of the door*

8:23 pm

He says. for murdering my wife...

8:23 pm

she pauses and says' oh! so you're single now

Haha, jmc. And thanks for the email!

Oy vey!

8:23 pm

lol

8:23 pm

haha

8:24 pm

must run *poof*

8:24 pm

How can you tell when a Jewish fetus is viable?

8:24 pm

Uh, how?

8:24 pm

8:24 pm

8:26 pm

bye herin

Ok herin. Take care.

have funs

Yes, I laughed out loud... my neighbors probably heard me.

Mind you, they hear me cough, sneeze, burp, etc. in this building.

8:27 pm

etc?

8:27 pm

a tzadik dies, goes to heaven and has an audience with God. He says "there is just one question I always wanted to ask...what exactly does it mean "thou shalt not seethe the kid in its mother's milk?"

Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a little. But I sure hear their TVs and stereos whether I want to or not.

8:28 pm

And God answers.... "thou shalt not seethe the kid in its mother's milk"

8:28 pm

Oh, says the tzadik....you mean we should have one set of dished for dairy and one for meat"?

8:29 pm

No, God says I meant "thou shalt not seethe the kid in its mother's milk"

8:29 pm

Oh, says the tzadik, you mean that we should wait three hours before having dairy after we have had a meat meal?"

8:30 pm

No, God says, I meant "thou shall not seethe the kid in its mother's mil".

8:30 pm

Oh, says the tzadik, you mean that we should never eat meat and dairy at the same meal?"

8:30 pm

"Have it your way" says God.

8:31 pm

Okay, I promise I'll stop now.

Haha!

Hey, email me any other gems you have, Eva. I collect them.

And then I can inflict some on you too.

Like....

In the winter of 1926, Thelma Goldstein from Chicago treated herself to her first real vacation in Florida. Being unfamiliar with the area, she wandered into a restricted hotel in North Miami. "Excuse me," she said to the manager. "My name is Mrs. Goldstein, and I'd like a small room for two weeks." "I'm awfully sorry," he replied, "but all of our rooms are occupied." Just as he said that, a man came down and checked out. "What luck," said Mrs. Goldstein. "Now there's a room." "Not so fast, Madam. I'm sorry, but this hotel is restricted. No Jews allowed." "Jewish? Who's Jewish? I happen to be Catholic." "I find that hard to believe. Let me ask you, who was the Son of God?" "Jesus, Son of Mary." "Where was he born?" "In a stable." "And why was he born in a stable?" "Because... a schmuck like you wouldn't let a Jew rent a room in his hotel!"

8:32 pm

going to run and cook up some dinner.. Bye all

8:32 pm

cute neil.. cute

Pick Up Lines For The Jewish Holidays: 1) Do you wanna see my haftorah portion? 2) I got a trust fund for my bar mitzvah, what'd you get? 3) Do you want to spin my dreidle? 4) Your father must have been a rabbi because he stole the vowels from the Torah and put them in your eyes. 5) What's a nice Jew like you doing eating scrapple like this? (Note: can only be used when the person in question is eating scrapple). 6) That's a nice-looking yarmulke you're wearing, but it would look even better lying next to my bed tomorrow morning. 7) Can I put my Torah in your ark? 8) Is that a mezuzzah in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? 9) Can I part your red sea? 10) I've got ten commandments you can follow... 11) Going out with me is like having Chanukah all year long. 12) Want to wander through my desert? 13) I've got Ramses in my wallet that wants to put you back in slavery. 14) I've got six pieces of gelt and a grogger in my pocket. 15) Why don't you slide your matzoh balls o'er here next to my gefilte fish. 16) Why should we recline tonight instead of on all other nights? Cause I'm holy, baby. Real holy. 17) Some guys use whip cream. I'm a potato latke man myself. 18) Why is this night different than all other nights? I'll show you why... 19) Hiding that matzoh is only half the fun.

8:34 pm

LOL-I really did. Great one. Do you have the Big Book of Jewish Humor? There's a great one about some cossacks interrogating a Jew who claims to be Christian-something about the resurrection of Christ

No, I need to get a copy of that!

8:34 pm

oy!

Feel free to send me any gems you have, Eva. Email on profile.

Please and thank you. :)

8:36 pm

Ok, replied.

So now you'll have my more direct email address, Eva.

8:58 pm

hi neil

The hotmail pops into Gmail... Gmail is the primary one I use but I didn't want to put it in here.

Haha, maybe if I had mean parents I would've been named Nell, Eva.

Check the second link in my signature, Eva. You may find it amusing.

Your cats have interesting names, littlebit!

9:04 pm

thank you, they are interesting cats!

9:05 pm

Ah, East coast.

Yes. My stepmom has a few.

I'd say Dad and stepmom... but he claims they're not his, lol.

9:09 pm

yeah, my dad never claimed ours either :)

Haha! Is that so they can get out of litterbox duty? That's my suspicion.

9:16 pm

probably! :)

Can't really blame him there... not a nice job!

9:18 pm

no it isn't, i got that job since i liked the cats and am the one who talked them into keeping them!

9:20 pm

i am done!! and it is past my bedtime! thanks for the chat neil...see ya later

sorry about the typos am working with a bandaged finger that is doubling my letters and just giving some innovative spellings

10:16 pm

lol

10:18 pm

hey there andree and bethn :)

10:20 pm

hi Seain!

Hi Seain and bethn.

10:23 pm

hi neil!

I make typos and "innovative spellings" without the excuse of a finger bandage, bethn.

If it wasn't for spell-check to catch them, I'd probably be out of a career.

10:25 pm

you know, when anyone else has a typo, I just assume they are typing fast and hit the wrong keys, when i make at typo it makes me crazy

10:27 pm

Oh, just dropping in before supper -- spotted neil so:

Hi jilli.

Yes bethn... same here!

10:28 pm

Hello neil, a message for you From your old pal, Alohablue!

10:28 pm

we had a fun Fri. night - my son is in a musical at an improv theater in NYC it had its opening fri night, a very good time

10:28 pm

Hello jillibus! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.

Oh? She can email me. She has actually and I have yet to respond to it... got a pile of email I'm working my way through.

10:29 pm

hi jili and min!

Oh nice, bethn. My brother did musical theater for years... from the age of 10.

10:29 pm

She was on last night, hoping to see you, but you were too late -- she had left before youarrived.

What is the production he's in?

Well I've had company all weekend, jilli.

That's why I haven't been on at that time.

10:30 pm

She has joined this bunch of addicts already so may appear after the flip.

10:30 pm

Hello bethn! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid.

Yes. So I understand... she upgraded. :)

10:31 pm

So has your company left, and you'll be here at flipstime?

She has gone home, yes.

So unless I pass out before then, I should be.

[I'm sooo tired.]

10:31 pm

Ooooohhh, SHE...

Uhhh, yes. :)

10:32 pm

Trave started a little later, 13, but he really loves performance of any kind, singing, acting song writing, guitar etc. It is "Nightfall on MIranga Island" and original musical by two of his friends from school- all original music very low budget but it should make it into the Fringe Festival this spring

10:32 pm

tired, hoho!

10:32 pm

*Trav

10:33 pm

Aloha called you Mr Word, neil.

That's great, bethn. My brother wouldn't stop singing... he was doing that all the time. Music was everything! Parents got him into vocal lessons at the age of 7, theater classes a couple of years later, then he started performing the year after that.

Haha, jilli.

That's Blue.

That's her name.

10:34 pm

I have about five minutes. Anyone need clues?

10:34 pm

the last thing they put on was a spoof on the nyc spiderman production which took months and millions to open, they wrote, scored choreographed and staged a mini spiderman in 30 days with a _)_ budget and got rave reviews

10:35 pm

Now I need to make my dinner -- see y'all after the flip...toodles

Wow, bethn. :)

10:35 pm

that would be a -0- budget, not an ass budget : (

Ok jilli. Bon apetit.

10:35 pm

see you later jili

Yes, bethn... I account for typos. ;)

I make enough of them! Haha.

10:37 pm

Yay, fireworks. Hellooo everyone.

Hi and congnrats, Roxbi.

10:38 pm

I know you blog on the political climate and candidates have you done any research on our charming gov in nj - Chris Christie? 8 P

10:38 pm

Whoo Hoo Roxbi

Uhhh, no. Why?

Well not much "research" as such.

10:39 pm

The country dodged a large bullet when he refused to enter the rep,. race

Oh! I have to send you something... you may find amusing. Hang on.

Ok, check your email, Beth.

10:42 pm

will do

It's four years old now... but recently re-posted, after my website got hacked last year and wiped out on me.

Just read that first instructional entry, and you'll know how to navigate the rest.

Oh what am I thinking? Haha, you are on there yourself... you have a Blogger Blogspot, so you'll know what to do. Not everyone does though.

So I felt that might be an idea.

Ugh. that first instructional entry has the wrong date on it. I'll fix that pronto.

Ok... fixed.

10:51 pm

I dont have a blog spot that i Know of but i have read others on blog spot. Iwill read these thru tomorrow, an inside look at the machinations of the hill will be informative and enttertaining

need my magnifying glass, this grid is so small!

Oh, you don't? I must be confusing you with another Babbler then... sorry!

Oh yes, I am! I just realized who.

Don't ask how I did that... but I'm so tired right now it's a wonder I remember my own name.

10:53 pm

does someone have a bllog with my name? I hope "I" am not blogging about pornographic escapades :?. MY children will disown me, but my husband will know it is an impostor .....

No, bethn! I just confused you and someone else, in my present state of exhaustion. Sorry!

10:54 pm

this is a quickie gwen

I thought the same thing, Gwen.

There should be bigger grids on weekends, no?

18 to go, you right beth!

10:57 pm

thats ok neil, I was just curious as to what I was blogging about :) , There is one blog site I frequent that has great recipes, but the author intersperses them with really raunchy texts and suggestive pictures. then she talks about her kids. They are going to set fire to her bed when they get older and read the crap she has posted. They should however save the recipes 1

Haha, Beth. Not to worry!

That's weird. And kind of inappropriate?!

10:58 pm

I would really like a steady diet of @ 250 words. that is enough to sink your teeth into without having to give up your entire day

Oh, warning: when you read my blog, you'll find some of the entries peppered with expletives... but in the context of humor and being amusing. I hope.

So just don't mind my language. Actually, one of the entries, entitled "Frak" is just about THAT.

I have a warped sense of humor.

i like a 250 grid myself. way more fun overall

And bear in mind I wrote it all 4 years ago... when I was 22. I hope I've grown up and improved at least a little as a writer since then

I concur, Gwen.

11:00 pm

it is very weird, and really inappropriate, I have no problem with expletives, cant use them in the house, the dman parrrot picks up everything that is said loudly and with feeling. But no one has ever accused me of having a delicate vocabulary. I don't however use it when it would embarrass someone else, I have a vision of my mother sitting on my shoulder....

11:01 pm

*damn

i have a personal policy of not putting anything on the net that might come back later and bite me in the ass LOL

11:02 pm

book, i wish i was so controlled! LOL

11:02 pm

I only had heard her swear Once in my growing up and that was only damn.. However as her dementia increases, she is becoming slightly less inhibitted

11:02 pm

i want to smack my husband up the side of the head right now!! i hope that bites me in the arse!

11:02 pm

Hey! mr p, How are you tonight

Oh no, mrp? :( What's going on?!

And I haven't been bitten in the ass yet... uh, by anyone on the 'net, that is.

11:03 pm

that is a given if you are married, mrp, it is just a matter of what you are going to smack him with , somedays it is a bigger heavier item than others

11:03 pm

hi beth! you better get out the whipping belt cause I am sitting here in 38 degree heat and poured myself a spritzer (1/3 wine, 2/3 soda) and didn't I get the 'headshake' from hell from HIM!

11:04 pm

hahahhaha neil

Haha, Beth! Yeah, anyone with a parrot has to be really careful. I'd be in sooo much trouble if I had one.

You got a headshake for what, mrp?

11:04 pm

our last one swore appropriately, and with great feeling when the situation

11:04 pm

called

11:04 pm

and a half sermon that was cut off with me telling him to FO, I wasn't HURTING anyone but his pompous stance on being sober for 27 days

11:05 pm

for it

For having alcohol? A spritzer wouldn't make a child drunk!

I enjoy wine spritzers myself, incidentally.

Yes, Beth... as I hope I do.

Oh, your last parrot? Haha!

11:06 pm

i enjoy a wine spritzer... don't drink wine 'straight'... and if he doesn't like to see it, he can go into another room... I have had enough in the last month

Birds are so amusing and comical!

11:06 pm

it is very hard to have him be sanctimonious under the circumsttances mrp.

Geez. What's wrong with a spritzer? I used to drink them as a kid occasionally [well 10 years and older] with my parents. Never gave me the slightest buzz.

11:07 pm

beth, anyone would think i was waving it under his nose!

Yeah, Beth... no kidding.

Just because he has a problem with it, no one else can have any?

11:08 pm

our african grey would yell "sh**" when he would fall off his perch, and after asking several times to go outside, he would scream "I WANT TO GO OUTSIDE DAMMIT"

11:08 pm

i don't know neil... if I have a spritzer, I am evil at the moment! grrrrrr

*eyeroll*

Oh how funny, Beth!

He probably did know what he was saying!

11:09 pm

this too will pas mrp, but it doesn't make it any easier to live thru at this point in time

11:09 pm

yeah, and he can just FO right now... cause if I want a glass of wine, it is my business and I am not hurting anyone... so stuff it up his pipe that he smoked and leave me the hell alone

Exactly, mrp. You are an ADULT.

11:10 pm

i know i know i know... but someone coming out of depression, into AA and 'knowing it all' now is hard enought

No kidding. But you shouldn't have to suffer for it. You're not the alcoholic. If you want a spritzer, you have a spritzer. He has to learn to deal.

11:11 pm

well, if I look at alcohol, i must be an alcoholic in his mind right now. sad for him

11:11 pm

I am not excusing him mrp, but that is a really typical response to what he has done, there is nothing worse than a new convert. think of newly exx-smokers, or new converts to a religion, they are more religious than the born to

Yep, Beth.

That's ridiculous, mrp. Just because he is, you must be too? *headshake*

nbt woot

WTG, Gwen.

11:13 pm

god, mrp, after what you have been thru both physically and emotionally you can have a spritzer if that gives you some peace and relaxation

11:13 pm

woohoo Gwen!

11:13 pm

too right beth... still makes me want to smack him up the side of the head!!!

Yes to what Beth just said.

I bet, mrp.

11:14 pm

is he going to meetings ?

11:15 pm

hi, bak. hi, mrp, bethn, gwen, and neil

11:15 pm

here he would probably be doing 90 in 90

11:15 pm

i've spent a lot of time studying and editing my tutees' thesis

11:15 pm

hi seain, you're back!

hi Seain.

11:15 pm

what are you tutoring them in?

11:16 pm

Spanish

11:16 pm

at what level?

11:16 pm

he's writing a thesis on how Martín Fierro came to me a national hero in Argentina

11:16 pm

he is skating on very very thin ice... if I want to have a drink, he can say whatever... i know I am venting here! BUT... i am not the one that did drugs, lied and deceived my family into thinking i was working when i wasn't... i did not spiral out of control... I did everything to keep this family together over the last month... so if I have a spritzer, FO!

11:16 pm

El Gaucho Martín Fierro is an Argentine poem from the early-mid 19th century

11:17 pm

and I now take my bow and go back behind the curtains.

Right, mrp.

11:17 pm

darn tootin' mrp!

11:17 pm

316 319 class this semester. this is for the 319

Just tellhim that and be done with it. And enjoy your spritzers!

11:17 pm

don't feel you have to hide, if you need to vent let it out here, if it helps keep the peace at home

11:17 pm

it's been enlightening as i started university Spanish at the 350 level.

11:18 pm

i echo what bethn just said

11:18 pm

This is a spanish major? what is his end goal? teaching, translation?

11:19 pm

i've been trying to get that answer, he's not very directed, but has improved a good amt this semester.

fire-the-works!!

11:19 pm

though he stil has trouble with matching articles and adjectives for gender and number

11:19 pm

congrats, Gwen :)

11:19 pm

My neice, started her German at that same level seain, finished her major and graduated in 3 years

11:20 pm

UAYYYYY Gwen!

As do I, Seain.

11:20 pm

*YAYYYYY :)

[echo what Beth just said]

read the wiki on wine spritzers or would o' finisher faster 8-)

11:21 pm

wine spritzers are a happy

11:21 pm

Seain, did you come by your spanish thru school or at home?

tee-totaler here

11:21 pm

school, starting in Kindergaten, all through elementary school, a year of MS in Spain.

although i accidentally drank some rum a few months ago

Was it accidentally good?

ugh, no

11:23 pm

and i've spoken partially to mostly in Spanish in most of my jobs.

Oh? I like rum.

And yes, Seain... about wine spritzers.

i like chicken

Same here... but how does that relate to alcohol?

11:25 pm

I am not teetotaler, but don't drink much. 3 uncles ruined their lives and their families' and i watched that as i grew up, neither of my parents drank at all, I went thru the teenage drinking thing, back tthen it was legal at 18 so you could get it easily at 16, but i only ever liked things that tasted like koolidd ie Boones farm or Annie green Springs, as aan adult i only dring a few times a year and then only one drinkd. I am happy nwith myndiet coke

no, it relates you your statement, that you like rum. i thought i could say, well, i don't like rum, but decided to say something positive 8-)

Oh, ok. lol

11:25 pm

i drink a fair amount, but nowhere near as much as my mother did when she was full-blown alcoholic. She served as a useful object lesson on that count.

I don't drink a lot either, Beth. But I enjoy a drink.

i have a lot of food allergies and some serious food phobies too, and being drunk i did once, and did not enjoy

phobias, that is

I don't have alcohol every day. Sometimes not for a week or more. Just depends.

I don't drink alone that often... just a glass of wine or two or maybe the odd beer when I'm on my own.

my vice is coca-cola, with sugar and caffeine in it

11:27 pm

I envy you your fluency seain, my fathers mother is russian, and i grew up in a russian community, but the russian we learned in school from the 3rd grade was not the colloquial rus. that my baba spoke. I continued it in HS but not in college. I can still read it at least a little, but not fluently

11:27 pm

i loves me Comfort and Coke :)

Yeah, I don't enjoy being drunk [and especially not hung over] either. Although I have a highly embarrassing photo of me horribly drunk on Flickr. Don't look... it's not a public photo. lol

11:28 pm

my mom and her brothers ended up monolingual in a household that spoke czech, slovak, hungarian, welsh, and english. My mind boggles at that.

see, now that's just what i was talking about! LOL

Huh? To which?

Yes, Seain... that would be weird.

putting a photo of your drunk self on the net. now you can never erase it ever!

welsh! (perk)

Oh, but nobody can see it except family and friends... and me.

And yes, I can erase it easily, if I choose to.

"Delete".

11:30 pm

Gwen, my mother's father's mother's mother was from Wales, and the language survived down to my grandfather.

there just might be a backup copy of it somewhere . . . (she said, trying not to sound paranoid)

11:30 pm

odd bits of mostly food words made it down to my generation.

No, Gwen. Haha!

i was named after a welsh fictional character (Gwyneth)

11:31 pm

Several years agoat christmas time my parents were here visiting, it was before we realized my mother had dementia. She was being extremely difficult. we traditionally go out for xmas eve dinner. I sat down and as soon as the waitress came over I cut eevery one off and said I need a cosmo" the entire table was silent they had never seen me with a drink" My son save the mood with "well if youre drinkin, i'm krinkin" sometimes a diet coke isnt enough

11:31 pm

I know another Gwynedd :)

Do you have Welsh background, Gwen? Your name is Welsh.

11:31 pm

that would be ago at

11:32 pm

that's wonderful, bethn :)

Oh duh. Just read your post about your name being Welsh, yeah. I'll be alright.

no, no welsh background at all, but big fan of British stuff in general

I see.

I don't have any either.

11:33 pm

11:34 pm

11:35 pm

Haha. Check your Yahoo email, Gwen.

Haha, like I'm worried?

But that's pretty bad, huh?

i agree, embarrassing photo!

I know, I know. But good for a laugh.

are you lying down or is the photo sideways?

11:39 pm

To answer your question? It's not sideways.

Haha, you wanna see it too, Beth? If you could use a laugh....
