7:15 am

no sprite, not back to normal yet

7:15 am

darn, phone

7:15 am

aww, ty to Terra

7:16 am

Annie, so sorry to hear it. Was afraid of it, it was really bad, wasn't it :( Still no power?

7:18 am

yes, it was bad but we have generators and that is supplying the power. However, they go out from time to time.

7:19 am

for the media, it seems to be 'old news'. But for you guys it is still very much the actual situation.

7:20 am

Yes it is. The wires and transformers in all 5 buildings are being replaced at a cost of 5 million per building.

7:21 am

omg... that is so much money.

7:21 am

how many floors per building?

7:21 am

23 floors and I am on the top floor

7:22 am

oh wow

7:22 am

you don't want the power to go off while you are in the elevator

7:22 am

good grief. You must have iron legs from walking all those stairs by now :(

7:23 am

The elevators are running due to the power from the generators.

7:23 am

but you said the power goes off periodically?

7:23 am

aloy, yes, that has been in my mind about get stranded in an elevator.

7:23 am

*gettin

7:23 am

**getting

7:24 am

scary

7:24 am

not fun at all; when is your building rewiring scheduled for completion?

7:24 am

Tomorrow the generators are being turned off so they can do regular maintenance. Being turned off from 1pm to 3 pm

7:25 am

Annie, hi. You are still having power issues

7:25 am

Hopefully, aloy, by the end of December

7:25 am

hi bichon

7:25 am

yes, I am bichon

7:25 am

Hi sprite, aloy

7:25 am

You must be so stressed out

7:25 am

the salt water must have ruined the wiring

7:25 am

hi bichon

7:26 am

aloy, the transformers and wires were in 6 feet of water and destroyed

7:26 am

clue for fo6/33

7:27 am

You think your safe in an apartment house, not

7:27 am

maybe transformers shouldn't be in the basement

7:27 am

Aloy, Everything is being rebuilt near the ceiling in the back lobbby

7:27 am

sounds like a plan

7:28 am

7:37 am

7:38 am

and merry Chriffmaff!

7:47 am

so what is new in babble land?

7:48 am

I live in a craaazy state: To exempt or not to exempt college campuses when it comes to storing firearms in cars – that’s one question dividing Republican lawmakers preparing to revive a so-called “guns in parking lots” bill.

7:48 am

new and improved, lol. I have new meds... not sure if I told ya already? They are working very well, seem to clear my head and make me feel more energised. Upping the dose tomorrow.

7:49 am

needless to say, the college admins are OPPOSED

7:49 am

wonderful, sprite!!

7:49 am

of for S*** sake une... and YAY for sprite!

7:49 am

jeezzzz... Une! *hugs*

7:53 am

55 to go and taking a breakfast break -- back in a bit :-) *poof*

7:53 am

Hey all

7:57 am

hi Jan

7:58 am

Morning, all...hope everyone is doing well.

8:00 am

hi Mimi, hope the same for you :)

8:00 am

{{SPRITE}} Have a 3 hour round-trip 2-bus travel day, unfortunately. Glad I have a good book!!

8:01 am

ouch... that is a lot of time in travel :( Yay for books.

8:01 am

hopefully your trip goes smoothly, mimi!

8:02 am

Thanks, mael....was your dr. visit OK yesterday?

8:02 am

hi mel

8:02 am

mael*

8:02 am

pretty much a waste of time, the dermatologist is not concerned but recommends removal of the mole, so he's referring me to a surgeon

8:02 am

hi sprite :)

8:03 am

isn't that at least a bit of a reassurance? Or weren't you worried?

8:03 am

so I have an appointment for january, which is fine. I;ll be traveling for the holidays and I really don't want to deal with stitches

8:03 am

Did he even do the biopsy? He should just to be sure. Or is the surgeon going to do that?

8:04 am

I was worried, a little, but mostly about getting it removed because I'm a big wuss

8:04 am

<--- just as big a wuss

8:05 am

the surgeon is going to do the pathology after removal, apparently. So we'll know. It looks like an atypical mole but not like anything serious. What's sad is that I was all geared up and ready for him to remove it and then he refers me, haha

8:05 am

so I'm going to need to get geared up again

8:05 am

good morning

8:05 am

Hang in there, mael!

8:05 am

As I told you, dear, the one I had removed on my face just under my left eye was not bad at all....you'll be fine. Hopefully, you have someone supportive to go with you.

8:05 am

that is a real shame. Would have been nicer if it was behind you now

8:05 am

hi car, good morning!

8:05 am

hi car.ee :)

8:05 am

{{CAR}}

8:06 am

Hello Mael, Sprite, Mimi!!! {{hugs}}

8:06 am

*hugs* right back at ya

8:06 am

it doesn't hurt, the needle to numb it hurts more than removing it

8:06 am

hi lideola

8:06 am

Hello lideola!

8:06 am

Morning, lid!!

8:06 am

my husband will come with me, but he's a bigger wuss than I am. :)

8:07 am

hi

8:07 am

yeah, luckily I really have zero problems with needles. I had a fibroadenoma removed when I was 18 and the freakiest part was feeling the knife but not feeling pain, actually

8:07 am

Isn't that usually the truth....can you even imagine most men going through childbirth, not to mention the nine months of "possession" that precede it?

8:08 am

phantom: augment

8:08 am

well... I think my husband would have done just fine, to be honest. And he helped me all of the way.

8:08 am

yeah... thanks car.ee... for putting that one on my retina...

8:09 am

two things my husband (who is awesome and supportive) is not going to be able to deal with: needles and childbirth

8:09 am

You obviously have a superior man, sprite!

8:09 am

Sorry! :p

8:09 am

handpicked, Mimi, grin :)

8:09 am

well done sprite :)

8:09 am

So was mine....but I must have been drunk or insane at the time.

8:09 am

*grins at car.ee*

8:10 am

I stayed for 23 years anyway.

8:11 am

*hugs Mimi*

8:11 am

Isn't ugli a fruit?

8:11 am

here's my revenge: phantom = guinnea(s)

8:11 am

yeah, car.ee, it is. But modern. Alas, not in enable.

8:12 am

oooh! TY for that phantom sprite! It led me to two words. HAHAHAHAH!

8:12 am

English is a strange language, isn't it? Kind of all over the place.

8:12 am

lol car!

8:13 am

Damn! This game would be so much easier if I could spell and type....

8:13 am

Mimi: amen to that!

8:13 am

english is a weird, weird beast

8:13 am

but car.ee, think of all the words you would miss... all those words you typo in and they take!

8:14 am

lol, sprite, that's the upside

8:14 am

morning all!

8:14 am

I would be improving my vocabulary if I looked up all the words I didn't know from Babble. Too lazy, though.

8:14 am

I love that sometimes I can type in italian and it'll be a word that ported over to english at some point

8:14 am

{{SUE}}

8:14 am

usually music or food related :)

8:14 am

hi sue! how are you today?

8:15 am

Hello uusue!

8:15 am

hi double U sue :) How are you today? And how's your love?

8:15 am

Sue, can you tell me how you uploaded the pictures in your profile? And how are things going?

8:15 am

we are good, sprite! I am about to go to work, he has a PET/CT scan this afternoon

8:15 am

WORK!?!?!?!

8:15 am

true, mael. Even some dutch words. Lots of french and spanish, and some german... japanese words too... very flexible language, english.

8:16 am

Mimi...I can tell you that...use Flickr.

8:16 am

<---- writing excuse note for uusue so she DOES NOT have to go to work....

8:16 am

I tried, car...could not figure it out.

8:16 am

yeah, who knew, car?

8:16 am

Keeping fingers, toes and bowels crossed for him, sue.

8:16 am

Did you create a Flickr account?

8:17 am

you'll have to make a free account on Flickr, and then link it to your profile, Mimi

8:17 am

the twqo of you are in my thoughts, sue

8:17 am

there's a college senate meeting today, car (all the department chairs, and there are only 6 of us) and then our department holiday party, where I should put in an appearance, being the chair and all

8:17 am

then upload pics in Flickr, and then they will show in your profile

8:18 am

you could use a clone of yourself, sue...

8:18 am

If at ANY time you feel tired or you don't feel well...PLEASE promise me that you will go home.

8:18 am

Glad you all knew what mimi was talking about. I was about to write a long screed about how to get the astronomy photo of the day as your icon picture :-)

8:18 am

and yes, car, it will be a short day for me anyway

8:18 am

:D

8:19 am

I love APOD, sue

8:19 am

I was an astrophysics major in college, I miss it most days

8:19 am

Oh mael! HOW COOL!

8:20 am

y?

8:20 am

Hi again. Back from breakfast.

8:20 am

8:20 am

Hi hurshy!

8:20 am

8:20 am

Hello Bichon!

8:20 am

How is Watson?

8:20 am

What are the stats for the 5th column e, third one down, pls

8:20 am

One of my best friends is an astrophysics prof here. He gets all kinds of funding from NASA and travels all over the world for conferences. He also just was asked to consult on a script for a new science fiction movie--they want him to advise them regarding travel at the speed of light. Too cool.

8:21 am

I don't have any of those E's...too confusing for me!

8:21 am

8:25 am

car.ee!!!!!!!

8:25 am

hint for the in 6/21, pls

8:25 am

oh, yes, that was just awful and totally crazy. That was at youth training. Nothing to do with taking a sport seriously even... just total craziness and violence by some teenagers.

8:25 am

How are you, dahling?!?!? Are all your essays done/

8:26 am

in + not somewhere else, bichon

8:26 am

my essays are done...my teachers apps done... been approached by profs to go for MA PhD and seeing a cute guy ;)

8:27 am

awesome carlee!

8:27 am

hehehe its been a good fall car.

8:27 am

very shocking to us all (the soccer thing)

8:27 am

thanks mael

8:27 am

( what was the soccer thing..i mised it..been in a news bubble last few days

8:28 am

merry christmas seems a better option than a trip to the preacher

8:29 am

a couple of teenager kids at soccer followed and beat up the referee at a soccer game. The man died later in hospital. Imagine giving your time and energy to those kids and being killed for your efforts.

8:29 am

I am not into Xmas, as you know, BabbleRabble, but for once I fully agree.

8:29 am

seriously??? there are no words

8:30 am

Stats please for the second N on the left?

8:30 am

no trips to the preacher here

8:30 am

no. It is one of those things you think will never happen he**. But it did.

8:30 am

Horrible. :(

8:30 am

8:32 am

I sing christmas carols .... carol carol carol .... but not much for decking the halls ... too hard on the hands

8:32 am

did u get that car.?????

8:32 am

:p

8:32 am

*grins*

8:34 am

with our kids at their resp. ages, we asked them how they would like to celebrate Xmas this year. Looking forward to hearing their suggestions.

8:34 am

that's a good plan, sprite

8:34 am

Oh nice! Keep me posted!

8:34 am

I'm creating my own words again....meef. Want to create a definition?

8:34 am

it is what my cat said when he was miffed, Mimi

8:34 am

How about a meeting that is brief?

8:34 am

LOL!

8:34 am

will do!

8:34 am

the sound a cat makes when stretching

8:35 am

a cross between meat and beef

8:35 am

Good one, sprite. And with mael chiming in, it is a decidedly cat-related word.

8:35 am

Hello blueheron! You are in the grid today!

8:36 am

hi bluehe5, you are in the grid :)

8:36 am

Hi, blue!

8:36 am

Wow! I guess I am! Hi all:)

8:36 am

hi blueheron

8:37 am

Gotta go have breakfast and prepare for my 3-hour bus rides and LONG day...have a good one, all. Back later. Hugs all around.

8:37 am

Your dragonfly is lovely!

8:37 am

Bye mimi! {[hug}}

8:37 am

bye mimi!

8:37 am

bye Mimi, enjoy your book. *hug*

8:38 am

I should download the real photo's I took of draggies this summer.

8:38 am

I need help with that EO please?

8:39 am

eo + most of what Tarzan likes to swing around on

8:40 am

I can't make it connect...

8:41 am

try the bottom EO

8:41 am

I am using the bottom EO....

8:42 am

keep going NW

8:43 am

What are the stats again? I am sorry I am having trouble...

8:43 am

eo + obedient: comp****t

8:43 am

eo 6/18, relates to the wind

8:44 am

no problem. Stats = eo6/18 E + mixed up fatty liquid + m**kind

8:44 am

Good grief! I was trying to make it with a vINE...what Tarzan swings on!

8:44 am

TY!

8:44 am

curse G's!

8:44 am

car.ee... li5/10 :)

8:45 am

TY.

8:45 am

With shamed face, I shall now leave and do my work...

8:45 am

the Gs are awful today, for me

8:45 am

*hugs car.ee*

8:45 am

bye car!

8:46 am

Have a wonderful day everyone! {{hugs}} all around!

8:46 am

the Gs aren't too bad once you find one of the GU series. GU + vowel + number

8:46 am

bye car

8:46 am

you too, car.ee :)

8:46 am

ah, that's one o' them RNA components!

8:47 am

yep. Play with the spelling.

8:47 am

oh man, the substance! got it :)

8:47 am

gl 4/6 --- white part of the brain that does some work similar to what neurons do

8:47 am

i gots 3 with playing with spelling, is that it? have 2 unrelated gu and 4 gl

8:48 am

yep, hursh, and the gu4 that is unrelated but looks like it is related

8:48 am

ah

8:48 am

gu5/6 combo has to do with pretending to be different than one is

8:49 am

right those were the two unrelated ones i had

8:49 am

good :)

8:49 am

thanks, everybody!

8:49 am

gu 4/7 ... first part of the Cuban gulag

8:50 am

and for the rest: ge6 = like the touchy-feely E5. Drop last letter for the ge5

8:50 am

ah thanks those are weirdos

8:50 am

still missing one which I suspect is a play-with-the gu7 spelling one

8:50 am

drop the e

8:51 am

yeah. But babble words, been around before.

8:51 am

thanks, that was it hurshy!

8:51 am

Good morning, dahlinks!

8:51 am

gu 6/27 -- add prep to the gulag

8:51 am

hiya Judi :)

8:51 am

clue for se8, anyone?

8:52 am

grant, it is an element.

8:52 am

qu 7/40 -- add vowel to gulag and preposition and then plural'

8:52 am

hah, my real name's in the grid today, se6 :)

8:52 am

nice name, mael!

8:53 am

Oh, TYVM sprite

8:53 am

gu 5/16 ... cunning; pl

8:53 am

yvw grant :)

8:54 am

thanks, sprite :)

8:54 am

i feel so bad for kate

8:54 am

wait, hold on, enable doesn't think SEEN is a word??

8:54 am

yes it does.

8:55 am

hold on. What's up, hursh?

8:55 am

mael... try again, lol

8:55 am

weird, it told me it wasn't

8:55 am

tried twice, got it the third time

8:55 am

sorry, free word everyone!

8:55 am

either a typo or a crooked byte

8:56 am

kate, nee middleton, having acute morning sickness as she is now pregnant (under 12 weeks!), and meanwhile some jerky radio show called the hospital where she is and pretended to be the queen and got them to tell info about her condition!

8:56 am

checked for typos because I was incredulous :)

8:56 am

bad enough that she has to have severe morning sickness without people being like that.

8:56 am

yeah, hurshy, I feel bad. Sounds like she;ll have a rough pregnancy and to be in the spotlight like that...

8:56 am

sounds pretty stupid and unfeeling, hursh :(

8:57 am

although i have heard of some people who have really bad first trimesters and then the rest goes great.

8:57 am

fingers crossed for her

8:58 am

I don't think that early pregnancy severe morning sickness means a ad pregnancy

8:58 am

In fact morning sickness does protect a fetus, I've read

8:58 am

*bad

8:59 am

protect it? like immune wise or...?

8:59 am

*clueless* What's an "ad" pregnancy?

8:59 am

I always feel so bad that I can't get more excited over royalty. It sounds like fun

8:59 am

i think i heard what you heard but can't recall the details

8:59 am

It's supposed to protect the fetus from toxins in the diet. I can't remember the specifics

9:00 am

I have heard it is a sign of strong hormonal change.

9:00 am

regular morning sickness, yes, but the women I know who were diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum is different

9:00 am

Judi, meant "bad"

9:00 am

oops, two different thoughts. It's more sever and can last through the entire pregnancy

9:00 am

lol bichon... same he4. But they are persons, and I certainly wish every pregnant woman a good pregnancy.

9:00 am

But IV can help for severe vomiting

9:00 am

Actually, I had a bit of a giggle over that prank. I don't think the royal family was impacted at all. I do feel a bit bad for the hospital staff/nurse who got flustered and gave out information.

9:01 am

i just don't think i would enjoy a prank being made out of my suffering.

9:02 am

I would hate to see my personal info in tabloids. And in my pregnancy I'd have been really hurt... hormonal queen #1 I was in both pregnancies, lol

9:02 am

granted the topless photo thing would be worse, to me.

9:03 am

I think that people who do things like that are jerks who should have their cars egged on a regular basis.

9:03 am

I think the overall lack of privacy would drive me incredibly batty

9:03 am

while driving, BabbleRabble? Or just before they go to work?

9:03 am

yeah - i mean those photos, for instance, were taken when she was on private property, an estate of HUNDREDS of acres!

9:03 am

I don't think the royals get too cramped up over what appears in the tabloids. Most of what is printed about them is rubbish anyway. I think they've developed very thick skins over the years.

9:04 am

probably, Judi. Goes with the job, I guess.

9:04 am

but she hasn't been a royal for years.

9:05 am

hail may be a phantom, but it is hitting our windows he4 right now

9:05 am

Live an dlearn. Unfortunately, being a royal/celebrity means you are constantly stalked by paparazi. Release the hounds!

9:05 am

yikes, sprite

9:06 am

*meaning the hounds should be released upon the paparazi*

9:06 am

that's why it took her so long to agree to marry him.

9:06 am

crazy weather. Snow and hail! Might not be able to go to therapy day tomorrow, they expect traffic chaos.

9:07 am

hursh, people who do such things show a huge lack of decency. But for the media, everything goes. Especially when there is no other news they can use at that moment.

9:07 am

i don't think it's a big deal having them in the news a lot as long as certain lines are not crossed.

9:08 am

i guess i'm pretty old fashioned myself.

9:08 am

the news is fine, paparazzi are not. And I realize the line is blurred between them, I just feel bad for the poor woman having to deal with people inquiring about her uterus day in and day out

9:09 am

That is true, mael. However, which is more pathetic? The paparazzi snapping pics of anything and everything, or the people who buy the tabloids/mags to read that trash?

9:10 am

What is interesting to me is the lack of empathy .... being stalked and hounded is a fact of life .. deal with it ... The jerks get a free pass.

9:10 am

can I say both, judi? :)

9:10 am

i totally would favor lots of privacy laws. in the US i'd add the right to privacy into the constitution.

9:10 am

Yes you can, mael.

9:11 am

lack of empathy is a very common trait in the media, I think. Maybe even in everyday life. Though I am often happily surprised at unexpected showing of empathy as well.

9:12 am

when glancing at the tabloids in the chekout line I always notice that it's women being accused of either weighing too much, or too little

9:12 am

you can't win

9:12 am

very true, mael. And if you should happen to have the perfect weight, they probably accuse you of arrogance or shallowness.

9:13 am

... or being anorexic, or having your stomach stapled... can't win.

9:14 am

actually, the focus on appearance is interesting in itself. Maybe, if you aren't any deeper than a plate of soup, you can't see any deeper either?

9:14 am

THIS JUST IN!!! I am neither too rich or too thin! I demand equality!

9:14 am

*nor*

9:14 am

tsk, Judi. You are too much fun. *runs to the tabloids*

9:15 am

*imagines sprite photoshopping my head onto Jabba the Hut*

9:16 am

*giggles* Darn, I still have a bit of Jabba left!

9:16 am

Don't forget to photoshop saggy boobs onto Jabba.

9:16 am

*simply removes shirt*

9:16 am

What? Judi looks like Jabba the Hut? *Starts rumors*

9:17 am

Heavens no. Uh oh. Must remember to buy all the copies of "The Babbloids" from the racks.

9:17 am

see, that's all it takes...

9:17 am

hi Molly

9:17 am

I have been told I am naive, concrete, lack affect, see things in black and white.. no gray ... it is either right or wrong and no sorta okay .. I plead guilty and have paid the price .... but would not change a thing

9:18 am

I have been told most of those as well, BabbleRabble, and quite a few others. People see whatever they want to see.

9:20 am

hi all. any clues for the Y word and the 8 letter word?

9:20 am

I have recently been named a sentimental cu#& and a sarcastical bi%$# in one email, by the same person. I guess she is right both times ;)

9:21 am

Y4: japanese $

9:21 am

ya 4 is a Chinese currency

It's good that he wasn't sick a long time.

1:42 pm

Hello Seain.

1:53 pm

and it so often seems to be this time of year.

1:53 pm

It will be very difficult as my father in law passed one year and one day before my dad

hi crossy! we are both ok but anxiously awaiting the PET scan results, which we will get on Monday

6:49 pm

6:49 pm

i am here if you need me

6:49 pm

will do, crossy!

6:49 pm

i have been there

6:50 pm

there are two kinds of chemo for colon cancer, one gives nausea and hair fallout, the other gives numb fingers and toes

6:50 pm

hello again all

6:50 pm

6:50 pm

i got the numb fingers and toes..be advised,they never come back

6:50 pm

6:50 pm

howdy glant

6:51 pm

I had the nausea and hair fall out chemo - but I didn't have hair fall out or nausea. Sure thta was down to the Plant Programme diet

6:52 pm

i had the numb fingers and toes and extreme nausea

6:52 pm

and hair

6:53 pm

I had nerve damage form suregery in 2005, the nerves from that damage have recovered and healed incredibly slowy and I now have partial sensation there - but I think the chemo just kills the nreves so they can't regenerate

6:55 pm

they do indeed glant my fingers half way up my hands and my foot to the middle of the foot are pins and needles all the time

6:56 pm

there is a long shot for a med that is usually used for diabetes patients,but it is not coverd and astoundingly expensive

6:57 pm

wow crossy, giant, I had no idea

6:57 pm

Is the med you're talking about something new?

6:58 pm

what took me the longest was learing to feel the pressure on the gas pedal in my car.you do not realize how much info you are getting from your foot nerves till it is gone

7:01 pm

*poof*

7:01 pm

gn glant sleep tight

7:01 pm

Reading through chog...chemo and other drugs can cause that, neuropathy, most all of those are not curable, but not further damage once drug stopped

7:01 pm

Yay Glant. Sleep well

7:01 pm

niters giant

7:02 pm

Here on and off this morning to help if needed - rainy day here!

7:02 pm

yes jilly,once drugs are stopped you are pretty well stuck with the side effects

7:03 pm

rain must feel nice after that incredible heat liz

7:03 pm

True - the ground needs it badly but its still about 28 C outside, so not cold! Just decided not to go foraging for driftwood this morning!

7:04 pm

using the driftwood to terrace the garden at the back.

7:05 pm

and jilly regarding the side effects of chemo..i was never so sick in all my life.it was ..i have no words for it..spewing your life and essance out into the toilet bowl 15-30 times a day.not being able to gather enough strength to have a bath if your loved one does not help you...but enough of this evil topic

7:06 pm

28c and i would be sweating like crAzy

7:06 pm

Not so humid today even with the rain - windows and doors open to catch any breeze and fans if needed!

7:07 pm

I know that as a nurse, that's why I always encouraged people to ask their chemo MD 'what is this going to do FOR me, and what is it going to do TO me'.

7:07 pm

you have to definatly balance treatment and quality of life

7:07 pm

My aunt used to serve pancakes with peanut butter and jelly...yummy and less drippy

7:31 pm

Peanut butter is a staple here.

7:31 pm

I used to tell my first graders that not every word had been invented yet and they could add new words if they wanted to. It was a great encourager for spelling.

7:31 pm

yes, love pb...never had it on pancakes though...hmmm

7:32 pm

PB and grape jelly....what memories!

7:33 pm

Hi gapeach and stidmere - just popping in and out this morning - so not ignoring you! It's a rainy day here - so doing house stuff!

How are you, gapeach ? .... hope you are well.

9:09 pm

Doing better, actually, Diane. Doctor gave new meds so I think they are helping.

I can cope with the arthritis...it responds to painkillers ( somewhat ) but it's the fibromyalgia that is a stinker.... doesn't respond to much !!

9:13 pm

Diane, I just looked at your profile.....looks like you are a Taurus......my BD is the 12th.....I'm 2 years older than you though.

But then I go to the nursing homes on a regular basis to play the piano, and I think "how lucky I am" !

yes... a Taurus May 7 1940 :-)

9:14 pm

We MUST keep going. Some days are just less pain than others....I'm grateful for any days however. LOL

Me too...:-)

10:38 pm

I'm a bit punchy tonight...had a long, tiring day and the police just left because some guy was knocking on doors in my building claiming to be with the cable company......NEED REST!!

10:38 pm

BTW, your daughter is delightful.

10:38 pm

eekk...did they catch the guy?

10:39 pm

lol...thanks...has she been on again chatting?

10:40 pm

I don't know but I doubt it. He knocked on my door (I'm the one who called the police) and I got rid of him but then he came back and knocked on my neighbor's door (another single woman) and from what he said I think he was trying to gain entry. So I told him I was on the phone with the police and really let him have it.....he left all the time saying I was nasty.....well, EXCUSE ME!!!

10:42 pm

wow Mimi...

10:42 pm

He was asking unusual and inappropriate questions and it was after 7:00 at night. I called Cox Cable and they are the ones who said I should call the police because their people are supposed to quit at 5 and wouldn't be asking those questions. He also refused to give me his name...another no no, says the cable company. He picked the WRONG door to knock on!! I'm all of 5'5" but I'm MIGHTY!!

10:45 pm

I normally do not open my door to strangers, especially at night, but I thought he was my neighbor from downstairs---he looked like him a bit.

10:45 pm

BTW, how did you upload the pictures to your profile? I tried flickr but couldn't figure it out.

10:46 pm

please be careful

10:47 pm

I had them on my computeralready and then set up a flickr account and added them...don't remember if it says upload or select

10:49 pm

I em'd flickr but they answered a completely different question than the simple one I asked....will try again. I have a few really nice pictures that I uploaded to it but can't figure out how to get it to cross to Babble. May try Dr. God tomorrow. By the way, dear, you are soooo pretty!!

10:50 pm

lol...I don't have any photos of me on there

10:50 pm

Isn't that you with the bride?

10:51 pm

no...lol...that is her older sister

10:51 pm

they are both my step daughters

10:52 pm

If I manage to upload personal pics I'm going to do ones from years ago when I still had my looks and didn't have to settle for just being colorful!!

10:54 pm

lol....yah...maybe I'll put an old on of me on there

10:55 pm

I am totally exhausted so guess I'll watch a movie that I really want to see so I'll fall asleep! Night, my dear, and BIG HUGS to you!

10:55 pm

I am unfortunatly wide awake

10:56 pm

good night dear, sleep well :)

10:58 pm

I've been up since 5, had to go downtown which required about 4 hours total bus time, had one meeting there and then had another one and then stopped at the store.....most of that was walking, so I'm just glad I can still do that considering the heart attack earlier this year. I didn't get home until after 3 this afternoon. Talk to you tomorrow!

10:59 pm

wow...Mimi....you definatly deserve a good night sleep

11:00 pm

So glad I caught you tonight...get some rest....hope to see you tomorrow {hugs}

11:01 pm

And I have to go back downtown tomorrow morning but there will be less walking and I'll be home earlier...I'm a tough old broad!! I'm glad, too----I do sooo miss you when you're not here! Night.

11:02 pm

well I am off work tomorrow so see ya then

11:43 pm

lol....glad I came back early for the flip...I still need 3 words

11:49 pm

okay - finished !!

11:54 pm

11:57 pm

Oh, I left it too late to finish - but I did get the three 8s, so yay me. Now, on to bigger and better grids.
