1:05 am

(((tor))) was thinking about you earlier today. A young man across the way in this apartment complex was playing his guitar and singing, and it made me think of you for some reason

1:06 am

and so is ralph

1:06 am

glad you are better, GR -- sorry about the dental issues, Dee

1:06 am

glad Ralph is also better!

ty, ((stid)))

es 7

1:10 am

That's nice that you thought of me (((stid))) but if you heard my singing, a garbage truck with a bad transmission might be a more accurate reminder ..

1:10 am

so cool -- George Takei's Star Trek name is in the grid and it counts!

lol, tor

1:11 am

*grin* too funny, tor -- I am sure you sell yourself short though I will reserve judgment until I can hear for myself.

1:13 am

I might get good enough some day to sing in front of people .. We'll see ..

1:15 am

I gave up trying to be good enough, tor. I sang one of the soprano parts and one of the alto parts for the virtual choir this year (my first singing "gig" in over a decade) and for the alto part I had massive allergies, was exhausted from multiple takes of the soprano part and had only practiced four times. I say, life is short, go for it! I even hit a few right notes on the alto part!

fireworks

1:17 am

Yay Dee!

1:21 am

some days, stid, have to go to Duncan 25th

1:21 am

When asked at the age of 93, why he still practiced so fervently, Pablo Casals said, "Because I think I am making some progress."

1:21 am

I am tired, tonight, but it's a good tired. We have a sofa that fits us again; and tonight a bed with a new mattress that should be really nice. I hope.

1:21 am

ah, that man -- he was an amazing musician!

1:21 am

sounds wonderful stid, sweet sleep

1:22 am

when I told the music/choir students at one school "practice makes better" they told me I had it wrong: I replied that the best musicians keep practicing all their lives even when they are the best in the business. They liked that idea.

2:35 am

hello friends. insomnia strikes again!

2:36 am

Hey there, Trif.

2:37 am

important life lesson learned today, please allow me to share: no matter HOW hot and muggy it is outside, DO NOT enjoy a frozen lemonade on your way to your doctors appt. When the trainee nurse routinely checks your temperature, it WILL read 85 degrees, and you WILL scare her to death.

2:38 am

awww, trif. so sorry that you have insomnia again. mind you, it's now 5:45pm here, and i have been awake since 3:00am.

2:38 am

thanks grannyrose, and sorry to hear you are haunting the night hours as well

2:39 am

rofl...poor nurse...so they still use under the tongue thermometers? over here weuse thermosc$s, which either read a temperarure from the ear ca% or from the forehead.

2:40 am

under the tongue. I think she couldnt decide if I was a zombie, a vampire, or suffering from some hideous ailment she hadn't studied yet

2:40 am

trif, i awake when the pain-killers wear off..and i find it very hard to get back to sleep, even when i take the meds immediately.

2:41 am

ugh, so sorry granny, that is the worst case scenario for sure

2:42 am

*giggle* like hypothermia on such a hot day..yeah, she would be very puzzled.

2:43 am

phantom: descant

2:43 am

yup, and decant,

2:46 am

trif...a visit to doctor's? nothing wrong, i hope? just a routine check-up?

2:46 am

not a routine check up, no, but they also didn't find anything wrong, which bugs me no end, as I am quite sure there IS something that needs to get addressed....

2:47 am

my beau has a very, very good herbalist he works with, and I think I will take it up with him

2:47 am

oh...wanna share? if not here, use my email address in my profile.

2:48 am

chog is eternal, so I think I will keep my own counsel, if you don't mind? its nothing serious, anyway

2:48 am

but I really appreciate your concdern

2:48 am

concern

2:48 am

np's trif...hope it is all minor for you.

2:49 am

haha I just realized what a hypochondriac I sound like....

2:51 am

hello, lovely ladies! finally making my way here, after a late night emergency shopping trip - the cats were out of food, oh no!

2:51 am

2:52 am

2:52 am

trif, you are NOT a hypochondriac...far from it, hun

2:53 am

cooee rbud. * my name-sake*

2:53 am

well, they'd certainly have voiced disapproval all night beside the bed, I've no doubt of that, haha! :)

2:53 am

Dog is human's best friend... but to a cat, you're just Staff.

2:53 am

2:53 am

4:23 am

hi hi no no

4:23 am

lol, you poor darling....

4:25 am

I am just not a nice person, not patient enough, that's for sure

4:26 am

ruby, you are one of the nicest peeps i know...himself is probably just not so nice...

4:27 am

but the repetition, sometimes within 5 minutes, makes me crazy

4:28 am

yes, hun. and you just take a deep breath and say ' oh, really, dear, i didn't know'

4:29 am

pretend he has just had an anaesthetic...distant yourself...and hey presto!! you are in my world!!

4:33 am

you know, ruby. my DH continually says he has told me something...and he hasn't..it's all in his mind..drives me nuts..

4:34 am

I guess that''s the other side of the same coin, only your husband is YOUNG

4:36 am

and THAT'S is what it makes it so sad, hun. he is young...and behaves like he is 90 years old. *sigh*

4:36 am

off to lunch

4:36 am

Hi lynxxx

5:37 am

How are you and all your bunnies...I haven't seen you for ages

5:38 am

The bunnies are adorable but not liking the heat and humidity of summer. And last night we had a thunderstorm and power outage so their nightlights were out.

5:39 am

sounds like an uncomfortable Summer. but I must ask - nightlights - for bunnies?!

5:41 am

I don't think THEY need the lights but I like them so the bunnies can hop all over their rooms in the dark and find their food, litter box, water, ...I am sure they can do it in the dark.

5:41 am

It has been a rainy spring and summer so far.

5:42 am

outs

5:42 am

sorry

5:42 am

Well, TY. I missed that one.

7:33 am

did you loose your G TO?

it is intermittent

7:35 am

and your general question?

7:35 am

I tried half of couscous..lol..no such luck.

if anyone has switched to cfl, have yo found any that have warm light to mimic incandescent?

try a different first lettter, zooz

7:37 am

there is a brand that softens the lighting of the cfl, can't remember the brand name, but I know Home Depot carries the different colors and wattages. I do know they are expensive

7:38 am

If it is the 2nd chef one, TO..then I have that one.

the bulb in my lamp here ets so hot i think it is the first to try

but i have a three bulb bath fixture which now has soft pink bulb. that will be hard

7:41 am

wow --just saw this on national news -- impala escapes into SUV! http://tinyurl.com/mukerxv

7:43 am

milk sugar alert

anyone want a 5 year old? he's up for the taking...... comes undressed (because he wants to throw a fit instead of just getting dressed), attitude to match, but he's cute and plays well with others (most of the time)

12:10 pm

*Tips hat to Lickety* Fireworks!

12:10 pm

yay, Judi, congrats!!! am one behind you, also thanking Lickety

12:11 pm

lol toad, I know.. same age as our granddaughter.. can be a bit moody

12:11 pm

Lol, Toad. I have a 57 year old husband who doubles as a child. I've paid my dues.

12:12 pm

joining Judi in fw .. must scoot as I have a deadline for a newsletter I'm supposed to be writing! ciao, all.. till next time, poof

he didn't sleep well last night, psyched himself out so he cried like he was scared all night (which he had no reason to be), so I get that and will give him the benefit of the doubt. BUT this happens all the time. he doesn't want to get in the shower (today he did) but then he throws a huge fit when he tell him its time to get out. That's what tipped this all off this morning. So he's sitting in his room.

his 2 year old sister is already on her second orange and second cartoon and is a super happy girl today. so 1 out of 2 isn't too bad.

12:14 pm

Is he in time out?

12:15 pm

At least he clean. Naked, but clean.

I guess you could say he is. I told him he could stay in his room until his dad gets home from work (either for lunch or when he gets off).

12:16 pm

With any luck, he'll fall asleep. Otherwise, he's probably in there coloring satanic symbols on the walls.

lol. probably the latter.. in blood nonetheless since he doesn't have much in his room

12:17 pm

Well, good luck! I'm off. See you kids tomorrow! *POOF*

:P later

12:17 pm

Make sure he's there! I once put my son on a time out and he sneaked through a childproof lock and was found by police a mile away, dresed only in his underwear.

lol. yah I can hear him moving around up there.

12:21 pm

It wasn't too funny at the time tho' I laugh now.

we have moments like that, but not that extreme. Simon's a homebody and wouldn't even know where to go if he did leave

12:25 pm

That never seemed to stop Tim. One holiday we lost him at a railway station and he had climbed up an old inspection ladder and into the roof, some 50 foot above us. I swear no-one han been up it since the station was built. You can imagine what he looked like when he eventually came down!

oh wow!! I can't see Simon doing that. he's kind of a scaredy cat.

his sister on the other hand....

12:30 pm

My daughter, thankfully, was the exact opposite or I would have gone grey a lot sooner than I did.

my mom has always told us if she had my younger brother first, she would have never had anymore kids

12:30 pm

I know the feeling!

12:50 pm

And fireworks for me...happy babbling, all...bye for now.

12:51 pm

Congrats zooz, enjoy your evening :)

12:52 pm

Thanks, Chrissie...any clues before i go?

12:52 pm

Thanks but not even half way yet

12:53 pm

howdy,soodles:))

3:07 pm

Sir? SIT!

3:07 pm

Hey Crossy :-)

3:07 pm

I thought you were sitting on a sir.

3:09 pm

Oh no, Molly! Never on a weeknight. Work tomorrow & all that.....

3:09 pm

Notice I said nothing about your quick peek. We'll leave your voyeurism out of this.

3:11 pm

Hey Molls, wanna buy a pictur........ Oops, sorry, wrong website.....

3:13 pm

Ah, I can't wait until we are "those scandalous women" living in the mansion that the whole town gossips about.

3:14 pm

Bring it on, Molls! :-)

3:15 pm

good evening babblers

3:15 pm

Think 94...there are that many million in the Powerball jackpot this weekend. Ohmmmmmmm!

3:17 pm

Hi Sprite

3:17 pm

hiya Molly

3:17 pm

I am very annoyed this evening! My sister in law is planning a surprise 50th birthday party for my brother, and she has said she is not going to invite my parents. She says they won't enjoy the evening... Loud music etc. i'm livid!

3:18 pm

Um Soodle...feck it and bring your parents anyway.

3:18 pm

can't she let the parents decide for themselves?

3:19 pm

Hello Sprite :-)! It seems she has taken the decision herself. (Fume, fume)

3:19 pm

how disrespectful

3:20 pm

can I get a bit of a hug myself? Husband came home with severe back/leg pain day before yesterday and is now in hospital, they can't find the cause. I am a bit scared.

3:21 pm

((((((Sprite)))))))

3:21 pm

oh dear. ((((sprite) ((((sprite's hubby))))

3:21 pm

thanks Soodle and peri :)

3:22 pm

Whats the word from the medics, Sprite?

3:23 pm

that they don't know. His symptoms are atypical for5 everything. He has to wait until he can get an MRI scan now.

3:24 pm

and it is time for crossy's new pat on the back of the day!! today a pat on the back to the D.C lawmakers who voted in the minimum living wage mandate despite some heavy handed threats by wal- mart near the end of things.:)

3:24 pm

(((sprite)))

3:24 pm

hiya crossy

3:24 pm

Worrying times, Sprite! Please stay positive & focused. (((()))))

3:25 pm

best wishes for hubby and that the cause of this pain is minor

3:25 pm

will do, Soodle. Have to, for my kids, anyway. So thought to come here for a bit of admitting that I AM scared. Good to have babble friends :)

3:25 pm

thanks crossy, from your mouth to God's ear

3:26 pm

Babble! A port of calm in many of a storm!

3:26 pm

too true!

3:27 pm

all my favorite ladies in babble today:))

3:28 pm

And, logistically, Sprite..... Is the hospital close to you?

3:28 pm

yes, about 20 mins by car.

3:31 pm

Thats good. (Saying a prayer & lighting a candle for Mr Sprite)

3:31 pm

thanks Soodle :) That will help. I know it idoes.

3:36 pm

and the kids have vacation from school, so they can help with Terra. Things could be worse. How's today's grid?

3:36 pm

I love Babble & the camaraderie of babble. What I don't like is when a fellow babbler needs a real, honest to God hug, and all I can do is make silly signs like ((())). Consider yourself properly hugged Sprite.

3:36 pm

it may seem silly, Soodle, but I swear I can feel it. Thanks :)

3:37 pm

lol,i am sure you can feel a big old crossy bear hug;))

3:37 pm

absolutely!

3:37 pm

*ouch, my ribs!*

3:38 pm

lol,when i give the mrs one of those her feet come off the ground and i just hold her a foot or so off the ground till i am done:))

3:38 pm

awwwww that is so sweet!

3:38 pm

well,i am 6 foot 2 in and she is 5 foot 2 in

3:39 pm

her head fists nicely under my chin when we dance

3:39 pm

fits

3:42 pm

no fists to your lady, hehehe

3:44 pm

Sprite, lots of reasons for back and leg pain that are not serious. My first thought is sciatic nerve problems.

3:44 pm

Hello all... at in crossy and sprite... and Molly. and Soodle if still here....

3:45 pm

Soodle is kind of ADD. It's hard to keep her attention in any one place for too long.

3:45 pm

Molly, that is what the doctors hope to find now, indeed. If it is a hernia, they will call in the pain team and kill the nerve.

3:45 pm

hiya m9

3:45 pm

Thought i'd come see if Ru was on to ask him to tell folks in his area that the S.F. spca is waiving adoption fees for cats and kittens through 14 July.

3:45 pm

Soodle rocks :)

3:45 pm

Just read it on my sister's fb.

3:46 pm

how nice, m9. That might inspire more people to adopt

3:46 pm

Yes. She is a cat foster mama for the shelter.

3:46 pm

babble dictionary word: ecocarn - environment-friendly meat

3:46 pm

Back pain that radiates down the leg is often related to the sciatic nerve. Lots of women have this when they are pregnant, due to the "extra load" they are carrying.

3:47 pm

cat and camels are my friend when pregnant, because if I don't do them as going to bed, I get sciatica then. Doesn't bother me any other times.

3:48 pm

they thought of that, Molly, but were in doubt because the pain is mostly in his leg and he has pain attacks, colicky-like, even when in rest.

3:49 pm

Did they do a CT sc4?

3:49 pm

howdy m9:)) spire,i have sciatica and like molly says,when it first came on i was in total agony and it gives the same symptoms described.sadly it eases a bit and you learn to live with a new pain

3:49 pm

they did an X-ray and an echo, so far. CT scans and MRI have waiting lists :(

3:50 pm

sprite*

3:51 pm

they have ruled out kidney stones, infections, aneurysms and several other possible causes so far.

((((sprite)))) saying a prayer for Mr Sprite

3:51 pm

thanks Chrissie :)

3:52 pm

Maybe it's a severe form of RLS

3:53 pm

sorry, had to look that up :) I don't think so, he never has any issues when going to sleep. But God knows... anything is possible at this point.

3:54 pm

I'm sure he will be fine, Sprite. I know it's hard not to worry, when you have a loved one in pain. Think positive thoughts.

3:54 pm

A lot of drugs in this grid.

3:54 pm

I'm glad.. RLS stinks!

3:54 pm

will do, Molly, thank you!

3:56 pm

I would pay attention to any relation to eating. It's surprising how many pains can be associated with that and not look like it. I get quite the pain in my right shoulder if I overeat..

3:57 pm

synchronicity... my love just texted me, they moved him to another room, morphine is working and he is in far less pain now :) He will be able to sleep tonight.

How odd m9

3:58 pm

that is odd, m9!

3:58 pm

Actually Chrissie, I guess that's pretty common!

3:58 pm

Morphine is a wonderful thing. : )

3:59 pm

I've never heard of digestion problems causing shoulder pain either.

3:59 pm

I used to get a stinging pain in my right eye when I drank coffee. Nowadays I remove the spoon, though. That seems to help.

3:59 pm

A lot of nerve meridians run through your center, so ailments there can present elsewhere.

3:59 pm

HA HA HA!!!!

4:00 pm

but all kidding aside, i think there is still a lot to be le5ed about the relation between food and body reactions.

lol, glad your keeping your sense of humour :)

4:00 pm

nothing will kill that. Nor with Rob, btw. In between the pain attacks we actually giggled quite a bit today, waiting in the hospital.

4:00 pm

I guess left shoulder pain is associated with heart attacks and GERD (acid reflux) but I have right shoulder pain.

4:02 pm

Right shoulder pain is sometimes associated with gall bladder issues, but most frequently with gas...

4:02 pm

I do see a clear link between overeating and gas

4:03 pm

Since I get it when overfull, I guess something is being pushed on that runs through the shoulder?

4:05 pm

or perhaps when you are overfull you can't breathe properly, which might bring out issues that you usually don't feel?

4:06 pm

Hmm.. could be. I do get asthmatic every once in a while, but I'm pretty aware of that. Most times, breathing is not an issue, probably because of the singing.

4:06 pm

our bodies are many-splendoured things

4:07 pm

Sorry to interject! Nope, Sprite! Soodle does NOT rock! If Soodle manages to tap her toe along to some easy listening middle of the road songs, well, thats a GOOD day!

4:07 pm

*grins* For me, you rock, lady Soodle.

4:08 pm

Yup. Puts me in mind of "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"

4:08 pm

<---Never was sure what the whole "rocks" thing was about anyway.

4:09 pm

quite, m9. Now if I could lose that eating disorder, I'd do better on that score

4:10 pm

*Thinking* Lady Soodle Of _____

4:10 pm

Lady Soodle of Babble

4:10 pm

Oh we have to do better than that.

4:11 pm

true. Lady Soodle of the Silly Songs?

4:12 pm

Lady Soodle Of Tramp O'Leen : P

4:12 pm

hi everyone

4:12 pm

lol

4:12 pm

hi Andree :)

4:12 pm

Visions of skinny young things shaking their silky long hair to the sounds of Procul Harem. Reality:- aging matron hoping their perm doesn't come undone! Sigh!

4:12 pm

just reading about mr sprite, hope you get good news soon

4:13 pm

thanks Andree

4:15 pm

*Cues up The Guess Who's "She's Come Undone" *

4:16 pm

*Also wondering where Soodle came up with images of vestal virgins*

4:17 pm

< skipping Light Fandango......

4:17 pm

Go ahead, turn a cartwheel across the floor.

4:18 pm

off to watch ruff ruffman with Gage

4:18 pm

bye m9

4:18 pm

Done it.....i'm feeling kinda seasick......

4:19 pm

Procul Harum did good drugs.

4:21 pm

am i alone in thinking this is not a friendly grid

4:21 pm

Indeed they did. I was annoyed about my sister in law when I came into babble earlier. Now I'm mellow & ready for a guileless sleep!

4:22 pm

Sorry Andree. Yes. This doozie has teeth!

4:23 pm

not too bad, here. Some odd words though.

4:23 pm

fireflies

4:24 pm

yay sprite

4:24 pm

I am off, gonna sleep downstairs with the dog tonight. Poor thing is off-kilter with Rob being in pain and now away. As am I. We will keep eachother company :)

4:25 pm

*hugs* to you all, and thanks for the support and friendship.

4:26 pm

they are a great comfort as well as great company, keep your chin up sprite

4:26 pm

Well done Sprite. And all my very best wishes to Mr Sprite.

4:26 pm

Well done Sprite. And all my very best wishes to Mr Sprite.

4:30 pm

Soodle, I would be annoyed about the party planning too. Your parents brought your brother into this life, they deserve to be at his birthday celebrations.

4:41 pm

4:41 pm

My thoughts exactly Molls.

4:41 pm

4:46 pm

Sheesh! Now thats what I call taking sibling rivalry to the extreme! 'I le***** how to spell parallell'! ' ' Oh yeah? I ou8/45'ed ya!

4:49 pm

I've never seen it used in a proper English spelling way, but hey...that's Enable for you.

4:51 pm

not something i will put in a sentence anytime soon

4:52 pm

It could be a vestige from the American deep south. Jim Bob was very competitive with his brother Buford. "I will outlearn him at school," Jim Bob swore.

4:53 pm

5:46 pm

babble blindness is a common malady here

5:48 pm

Or just not being able to see a word you thought you should. : D

5:55 pm

*puts on Ray Charles background music*

5:55 pm

Which is okay because there are plenty of words in this grid that are strangers to my vocabulary.

5:56 pm

Thank you Ru, love Ray Charles.

6:06 pm

Fortunately, no one of German descent was offended.

6:13 pm

your likes appear to have a theme, lilliann....Hugh Grant... ;o)

7:52 pm

is that the one with Danny Devito and Bett Middler kate?

7:54 pm

i am wrong about the name of the move... just googled it. it will come to me, along with the actors' names... i know the guy is a brit that i like (trainspotting i think) and the girl is blonde

7:54 pm

i actually do like Hugh Grant, but that's because he's proably in alot of our british romantic comedy films. i also like Jason Statham and i wouldn't knoch him back :D

7:55 pm

don't know JS...

7:55 pm

got it! a life less ordinary... ewan mcgregor and cameron diaz directed by nnone other than danny boyle :)

7:56 pm

7:56 pm

he was in transpoter films.1-3, crank and loads of others

7:58 pm

i'm not sure if i've seen that one kate but it does sound familiar and with the actors in it.i'd know after 5 minutes watching it

7:58 pm

Jason Statham makes alot of films in the US

7:59 pm

you'll have to google him pen, you probably have seen him in some film, i would think

8:00 pm

8:02 pm

he was in the Italian Job, the 2nd one not the British original

8:03 pm

i did see that movie...don't recall him....looked up his pic....vaguely familiar....

8:04 pm

mark wahlberg, Charlize Theron and Donald Sutherland were in it

8:04 pm

i must sort of excuse myself, i've been on the go all day and am ravenous.. must forage before i fall over from starvation.. popping in and out until caloric intake reaches acceptable level

8:06 pm

he was in the expendables 1 and 2 and loads of others. i like him as an actor and apparentlyhe directs too

8:06 pm

am i just really tired, or is this grid a wee bit nasty?

8:06 pm

food is good kate :)

8:07 pm

But we're also currently living in a double-wide that's up off the ground... and the bunnies live under it part of the year. So when they wake up in the morning to go forage and bump against the floor, the dogs are already set to hunt.

11:26 pm

nothing with fur can move without setting off hounds and other hunting dogs... i undrstand :)

11:27 pm

bye stiddie, see you "tomorrow"

11:27 pm

They're amusingly Non-picky about it, honestly... birds, lizards, elephants... they kinda dont care if it's not human and moves lol

11:27 pm

hi all

11:27 pm

uh oh, the dogs can probably sense them even if they aren't bumping the floor... they must be going insane wtih "hunt fever"

11:28 pm

Even the moths or spiders that dare invade the house are primo targets

11:28 pm

{{stid}}

11:28 pm

just sticking my head in to see who is here

11:28 pm

evening Jm

11:28 pm

jmc !!!hi there!

11:28 pm

so you have the computer tonight?

11:29 pm

Kinda. I was always that the easiest ways to train animals are to encourage what they already naturally do. And in this instance I Can call them off... they just really dont like it.

11:29 pm

evening all

11:29 pm

there is a big thunder storm here tonight

11:29 pm

hi jes

11:29 pm

evening jes

11:29 pm

11:30 pm

i spent the day with my sister helping her get ready for the first visit of her new granddaughter

11:30 pm

yes, lappie loaner for a longish weekend woot! hi jess :)

11:30 pm

there are several, really.. I figure either hurriedly finishing or afk waiting for the flip.

11:30 pm

they were suppose to drive down from NYC tonight but considering the weather *jumps* i am glad they did not

11:31 pm

wish we had a thunderstorm here, it's been all around us, but barely a drop here all weeek, and so close to toronto, where they were deluged and flooded out on monday...

11:31 pm

storms like this make me happy i live next to a REALLY TALL radio tower that will take all of the lightening hits

11:32 pm

it rained quite hard for about a half hour and now it is starting again. . .

11:32 pm

After the 120 degree week here, last week, I was glad for even the tiny amount of rain we got yesterday

11:32 pm

how old is the granddaughter? sounds like you have a primo location there jmc. i hope you don't lose power for the flip...

11:33 pm

this one is directly overhead of me. . .

11:33 pm

just shy of 2 months. . .

11:33 pm

and already a charmer

11:33 pm

overhead.. tower or storm?

11:34 pm

i understand moon. . . i grew up in texas where it also gets hot. . . and humid!

11:34 pm

storm. . . the tower is a half block away

11:34 pm

so you need a good drenching moon?

11:34 pm

*jumps*

11:34 pm

Right. It only *really* gets humid here tho on days like this right after the rain. No gulf coast in AZ =)

11:35 pm

sorry must break down and close windows brb

11:35 pm

has anyone seen mimi cat? i hve been missing her all week... more lightening jmc? are you inside?

11:35 pm

Oh we really do, yes. Our rainfall has been just abyssmal this year

11:37 pm

ours too moon. all around us, there's been plenty of rain - not here. last year was basically a drought - even the robins left town because it was so dry!

11:37 pm

haha yes i am inside. . .

11:38 pm

well the desert really kinda lacks a ton of birds... but same for us. Drought conditions and *tons* and *tons* of dry

11:38 pm

hi all clue for the last o 6 please

11:38 pm

to 6 that is please - dysleic fingers today

11:38 pm

Im not sure if you know what a choya is, but really... when a cactus dies cause it's so dry, that's a bad sign.

11:39 pm

mercy! *smacks face with surprise at the thought of a cactus dying from lack of water*

11:39 pm

when i lived in streetsville, i used to love to sit out on the back porch an dwatch the storms over the credit river... very large overhang and wonderful view... one cat sat clamly in my lap - the other upstairs under the cover of the bed for the duration...

11:39 pm

sorry tanja i don't have it

11:40 pm

the last os6 sounds like the naughty hus**** magazine.

11:40 pm

to 6/21

11:40 pm

part of the reason i built so many windows in my bedroom was to be able to watch storms. . .

11:40 pm

oh oops.

11:41 pm

yes 11 to go :)

11:41 pm

okay, close to the flip, so no one goes to the PB for saying cactus....you know who you are ;)

11:41 pm

to6 = to make messy. Like... she to6d her hair

11:41 pm

go tanja go!

11:41 pm

omg. I suck! lol

11:41 pm

Im ready for the flip, apparently lol

11:41 pm

i don't go because i haven't even entered one word of the grid (although i am doing it mentally)

11:42 pm

ty

11:42 pm

wooooot tanja!!! is that choya yours moon - in your yard?

11:42 pm

yea. We have tons of things growing out here... but at least a cpl of the choya have gone dormant entirely from lack of moisture

11:43 pm

sounds like a nice view jmc!

11:43 pm

choya is absolutely nothing anyone would grow on purpose tho. Its awful evil stuff lol

11:43 pm

well they will probably come back with the rain. . .

11:43 pm

you wouldn't give them a bit of water????

11:43 pm

theyre like... the heat seeking missles of cacti

11:43 pm

yes. . .the street lights let me see all the rain and wind. . . teehee

11:44 pm

oh, you didn't do this grid jmc??? why ever not?

11:44 pm

8

11:44 pm

because i just came here now . . . .

11:44 pm

oh no. We'll actually be singing the needles off and uprooting them next week. Theyre just awful things. But really, they're still usually very hearty things

11:44 pm

lol@moon wouldn't want to be the acquired target of one of those!

11:44 pm

usually i start it anyway but today i decided not

11:44 pm

go tanja go!

11:44 pm

Its just also very notable when they succumb to dryness.

11:45 pm

hhow very mature of you jmc. showing restraint and the ability to delay gratification ;)

11:45 pm

now 6 - clue or the so 6 24 please

11:46 pm

more like lazy. . . .

11:46 pm

absolutely not. They barb once they hit your skin, like little tridents, so they take little hunks of skin out with, when you pull them. they'll stick to anything even remotely moist

11:46 pm

the beautiful game tanja

11:46 pm

s0 6/24 is european football

11:46 pm

that sounds like porcupine quills moon!

11:47 pm

sound nasty moon

11:47 pm

yea, a lot like that, but they need less momentum to stick

11:47 pm

nice to take a day off and relax jmc, you'll be all ready for the whopper we're going to get at the flip...(hopefully)

11:47 pm

ty - i looked or that for ages :)

11:48 pm

clue for the to 10 please

11:48 pm

it was my last word tanja.... could have KICKED myself!

11:48 pm

it's mostly just that their root systems extend to a really large radius, and the moment you step on the spongy roots, they tip towards you and drop pronged balls.

11:48 pm

nm

11:48 pm

hi shorty.. pl of the to 9 lololol

11:48 pm

the to10 is plural of the to 9

11:49 pm

11:49 pm

11:49 pm

good evening =)

11:49 pm

11:50 pm

ooooh NASTY business moon! that's practically a predatory cactus!

11:50 pm

hi shorty

11:51 pm

Ive watered the saguaro and joshua trees a little, once I noticed the choyas being affected. But yea... the evil choya can go (since Im presonifying everything today ^^)

11:51 pm

11:51 pm

11:52 pm

11:52 pm

11:53 pm

11:53 pm

11:55 pm

11:55 pm

well cast your bread upon the waters. . .

11:55 pm

11:55 pm

11:56 pm
