12:55 am

Greetings Friends

12:55 am

Never mind - found it. Fireworks

feu d'artifice

12:56 am

Hi rose - didn't see you there

12:56 am

got it thanks guys

hiya puglet

12:57 am

Hi Melon--how are things going for you

clues, anyone?

12:58 am

I'm off - packing to do/ Happy babbling

12:58 am

hey anike, long time no see, hun. how are you?

not so well. Son lives with daughter who has decided everything I've done is wrong. OK, that I can live with, but she has no clue how taklking trash to her brother hurts him.

12:58 am

does anyone have a clue for in7 please?

12:58 am

hi and bye anike

bye, anike, pleasant day to you.

12:59 am

lol, hello flosey, see below 12:54

I'd tell you flosey but it would take guts.

12:59 am

and I thought things were getting better there for you Melon--so sorry

12:59 am

thaks mel, looking

12:59 am

hi all

12:59 am

hi joso

1:00 am

Hey Sir Joso and Flosey

Their dad's hand is in this. It's like reliving my divorce. All I can do now is hang back. How sharper than a serpent's tooth...

1:00 am

`````sir joso `````. g'day mare.

1:00 am

I will keep praying for you Melon

think of stinky greens, flosey, then exchange to first syllable for lodging.

1:01 am

hey flosey, pug, matelet

Thank you, Pug. I had a good cry this afternoon, and that really helped.

1:01 am

poor melon. my ex did that with sons too. it hurts like hell, and if you say anything, you are the world's worst. have a {{hug}} on me

1:02 am

ah mel, sorry to see you go through that kind of bad feeling

1:03 am

mel, nothing you have done is wrong, i am sure of it. you may have made a mistake or two, don't we all. that's how we learn. but you did nothing wrong.

Thanks for the hugs and care, dear babble friends. I'm patient. It will all work out. I hope by my upcoming birthday; it's one that ends in zero (just one zero!)

1:06 am

oohhh, that's a good one, melon. it is such an empowering age, hun

Thanks grannyrose. I know that. Basically, my daughter is undoing most of the interventions/organizations of the past two years. I think it's just easier for her to think a change of situation will make my son better rather than face the fact he has a serious illness that progresses almost despite any treatment.

1:06 am

a good chance time will help mel, Twain had a great line about how dumb his father was when he was 17, and how stunned at how much his father had learned 10 years later

Diagnostically he falls in the cracks.

1:07 am

I got to talk to Ivesy yesterday and all went well for her at the doctors. No strokes but migrane headaches and shes now on new meds.

There's cognitive deficits, irritability, blunted affect, etc.

yep, joso. My daughter has retreated to being 15 again. She's in full rebellion mode. Best thing is to hang back and not be her audience/target.

1:08 am

who knows, melon? she may well think of something which will help him, and then again she may find out that mom was right all along. either way, thank her sweetly for helping her brother. it will totally confound her.

anyway, I'm going to hit the hay. Have some good reading on my nightstand. Luv to all.

hi. I'm missing the an5/12 and the first 3 de words. Can you help me out so I can go to bed?

1:09 am

Night Melon and take care

oh, I tried that granny.

1:09 am

sweet dreams, melon. i hope your rest is depp and healing, hun

1:09 am

g'night melon, rest easy

1:10 am

an5, an + air-***ditioning is great in hot weather

1:10 am

Hi Moon, nice to meet you

1:10 am

I'm not getting that in7 clue, any other clues?

thx granny Hi puglet

the first three de words are almost anagrams of one another, starting with de followed by what follows "re" in the sound of music.

1:11 am

de6, de*onstrate, show how it works + 2 vowels to a plural end

guts, flosey, slangy guts!

tiem for me to exit. XXXOOO [poof]

1:11 am

flosey, o-o said it best, in*, hotel + house of c****, 52 of them

1:12 am

goodnight melon and thanks for clues

Thanks so much granny. That's FW and I'm off to bed.

1:18 am

1:18 am

1:19 am

I think it would be great if you visited me rose, half days on tusesdays would be good for me

1:19 am

1:19 am

1:20 am

1:20 am

neglecting short term idiocy I mean

1:21 am

oh dear...i'm laughing so hard...can hardly type...

1:22 am

I refuse to neglect that which has gotten me so many labels.

1:22 am

providing you can move tomorrow

1:23 am

surprisingly not much swelling, but my fibromyalgia in the right shin is really bad, and the knee is stiffening up, maybe i'll get on the exercise bike.

1:23 am

pugs, even if i have to crawl, which would be a very interesting experience in pain...

1:24 am

Ive been nursing a stupid bad tooth all week

1:24 am

awwww, o-o...may i give you a virtual hug?

1:24 am

phantom: Zenzizenzizenzic

1:25 am

ugh, pugs, do you have any cloves in the house?

1:25 am

Is the tooth an indentured servant pugs?

1:25 am

*groan* ruru

1:26 am

if it was indentured, it would hurt....silly man

1:26 am

so predictable

1:26 am

*sigh* wouldn't...

1:27 am

Ru, I thought you went to bed--lol

1:27 am

whatever kind of tooth it is, it hurts

1:28 am

its got my throat and roof of my mouth swollen

1:28 am

Sounds infected pugs.. see a dentist asap

1:29 am

jeez pug, that is sounding serious

1:29 am

you're talking to my dentist

1:30 am

well get a better dentist, quick

1:31 am

It can affect your heart pugs..nothing to mess with.

1:32 am

I hate to say it but I have not the money for that---I will just have to doctor it myself

1:32 am

yes, get some antibiotics before a sore tooth becomes brain fever

1:33 am

they dont sell antibiotics over the counter, Joso

1:34 am

no, you need a prescription

1:35 am

Ive had a bad tooth before and If it comes to it I will just have to pull it myself, which isnt a first, but this is a back tooth so I dont know about how hard it will be

1:36 am

I can get antibiotics for horses though--lol

1:37 am

oy, i wish you luck pug. Have you sighed up for oboma care ?

1:38 am

NO Joso--you got to have some kind of income

1:39 am

there is no coverage system for those without any income?

1:40 am

I didnt see anything

1:41 am

how about visit an emergency room, they may give you a prescription

1:42 am

If it gets where I cant do anything else, I will get money from a friend--but thats as a last resort. I dont like oweing someone

1:44 am

I will be okay, I just got to get the swelling down in the roof

Is it still snowing where you are, Pugs?

3:55 am

oh, evil ones, zooz!

3:56 am

well we got some yesterday and one is coming in today

3:56 am

I think puzzle pieces should be self-starters and go where they belong on their own.

3:56 am

Teehee..well don't want to make them too easy.

3:56 am

How are you, Sprite?

3:57 am

Oooh, poopy small grid for a Saturday! I guess nobody sent Dr God Valentine greetings and he's feeling vengeful.....

3:57 am

lolol o-o!

3:57 am

Hope you stay safe, Pugs.

3:57 am

3:59 am

Pugs is cavorting through the chat now that she finished the grid.

3:59 am

good to hear, zooz :)

3:59 am

Have you been getting our bad weather Sprite & Ruby?

4:00 am

we are very lucky here; temps hover between 40F and 50F with some rain but no snow. It will probably all arrive at once in March!

4:00 am

Raising my cup of tea to toast, Pugs, in her fireworks moment!

4:00 am

mostly the wet, zooz. It has been raining cats and dogs here. But this morning seems to be less rainy and more windy.

4:01 am

I think the wind means a front is coming through

4:01 am

I wish I felt like really cavorting, OO--lol

4:01 am

Yes we had the Gales last night..could feel my house shake at times..a bit scary..lol

4:01 am

me, too, pugs, Valentine's Day is a real let-down!

4:02 am

one day you will, pugs. Give it time. One babystep at a time.

4:02 am

Valentine day is just a normal day for me..lol

4:02 am

whys that Ruby? we got many friends to love

4:02 am

friends yes, but chez nous, the magic is gone, long gone

4:03 am

If it weren't for bad weather there would be no weather at all.

4:03 am

lol

4:03 am

I dont even think on those lines

4:03 am

now that is a deep one, o-o. And what would we have to talk about then, I wonder!

4:04 am

onions!

4:04 am

no wonder this is a tiny grid. That left upper corner is impossible!

4:04 am

lolollllll pug! Why onions?

4:04 am

a little left for the morning - bye all, enjoy your days

4:05 am

Many layers, Pugs :-)

4:05 am

Have a sweet sleep, Lynxxx :-)

4:05 am

hi and bye lynxx

4:05 am

bye Lyn

4:06 am

Zoom, are you getting to like your new laptop

4:07 am

Onions are a good conversation starter .... can converse with layers of meaning.

4:07 am

I can see how they can be appeeling, o-o

4:08 am

It is ok..not a powerful one had to budget for the best of what i could afford..lol

4:08 am

ok is a whole lot better than just the xbox, zooz :)

4:08 am

You two knows your onions..lol

4:08 am

well its better than what you had

4:08 am

Oh yes i agree, Sprite, so much better than the xbox..lol

4:08 am

or s the French say, "mind you own onions"

4:09 am

It sounds better in Fr lol

4:09 am

lol ruby :) It brings tears to my eyes.

4:09 am

Sprite,, hows your day going

4:09 am

what is it in french?

4:10 am

it errrr just started, pug, lol. It was very late before I slept and both children are away from home and we slept in.

4:10 am

c'est pas mes oignons (they leave out the ne)

4:11 am

A sleep in is good for you now and again.

4:11 am

love it, thanks

4:11 am

a nice quiet morning then---thats nice

4:12 am

see you later kids. nbs but no nbt and nos even half

4:12 am

caya won't be home much this weekend, spending last night with one friend and the next with another. And tim was at school tonight, they had film marathon night.

4:12 am

Pugs, you're a genius!

4:12 am

have a good one, ruby

4:12 am

bye Ruby, hows that

4:12 am

32 days, 13 hours remain till Spring

4:12 am

you finished this nasty little grid!

4:13 am

the final countdown

4:13 am

Oh--but with help Ruby

4:13 am

still....

4:13 am

still a whole month away yet!

4:13 am

we all use help some way or the other, pug, lol

4:14 am

Spring was well late last year...hope it will not be the same this year.

4:14 am

we had no spring last year just grey skies and rain

4:14 am

let's hope Spring sets in with unseasonable high temps

4:14 am

maybe this year will be better

4:15 am

and the irises and tulips are inches up

4:15 am

summer was pretty good though

4:15 am

I would just like to see the ground---muddy or not--lol

4:15 am

Yes another summer like last year would be amazing!

4:15 am

on the one hand, we need a frost to kill all the germs lurking about, but on the other, it will kill the nascent flowers

4:16 am

My city has rounded up several million sandbags based on the potential for flooding.

4:16 am

wow Ruby--I cant even see a blade of grass yet

4:16 am

are you in a flood zone OO

4:16 am

I walked Raffie for the first time today because Burt has been walking her but not disciplining her at all so she is a wild woman. It was a big job, but, by the end, she had calmed down a lot

4:16 am

scary, o-o

4:16 am

we have no grass, just mud mud mud

4:17 am

Hope you don't get flooding too, o-o

4:17 am

*woof*

4:17 am

Mud glorious mud.

4:17 am

good job, ruby

4:17 am

Got that song stuck in my head now..lol

4:17 am

Bye Ruby.

4:18 am

can you get sandbags OO for yourself or is there someone to help you

4:18 am

I do not know if we are in a flood zone .... the water is undisciplined and refuses at times to remain within its banks.

4:20 am

guess there goes your dry baths--lol

4:21 am

I can see the creek from where I live but Iam up on a hill and Ive never seen it ever get up here but for the campgrounds thats another story

4:21 am

volunteers fill the bags ... we have had a lot of springs where the river exceeds the flood level .... can fill a lot of bags in a hurry.

4:22 am

has it ever came visiting you OO

4:22 am

13 Cs on one tile in a tiny grid...not good.

4:23 am

they are not that bad, zooz

4:23 am

I am quite far from the river ... so only some close calls thus far .... but I could float away in my empty tub.

4:24 am

Well got 8 of them so far.

4:24 am

make sure to pack the hammock, o-o

4:25 am

no hammock anymore ... last seen floating in Chesapeake Bay

4:25 am

have a tractor tube tied to the hammock too

4:25 am

got an image of o-o floating down a river with his har cap on and back scrubber waving in the air for help.

4:25 am

aw, hard to picture you without the hammock, o-o.

4:25 am

hair*

4:26 am

The wind got it and it twirled away

4:26 am

I'll tell my love to bring out the canoe and paddle to o-o's rescue

4:27 am

I still have my magic carpet ... what a ride!

4:27 am

I love the water but cant swim a lick so anything over my head scares me

4:27 am

that should do the trick. Can it navigate storms, o-o?

4:28 am

if we ever get rich enough to get you overhere, pug, we will teach you to swim.

4:28 am

I get anxious if a toe gets wet.

4:28 am

How nice to have a magic carpet..just think..you could have a picnic where ever you please...and the views could be breath taking!

4:29 am

I am a good swimmer thank goodness.

4:29 am

I would be on the front page " Oldest woman to ever learn to swim" lol

4:29 am

But I am agoraphobic so I only ride from room to room.

4:30 am

must have some mighty high ceilings, OO

4:30 am

we will make sure we build a cabin in the canoe for you, o-o

4:30 am

Time to get out the manure spreader again.

4:31 am

don't think so, pug. Lots of adults learn to swim here. Especially foreigners

4:31 am

we will go hold his hands and get him to saftey

4:32 am

do you swim alot Zoom

4:32 am

Not recently since parents need a lot more help..but before that i would swim every day for two hours.

4:32 am

I could probably crawl on the bottom--lol

4:33 am

Stats for the O please?

4:33 am

your parents are lucky to have you, zooz

4:33 am

so Sprite do you go swimming very much

4:33 am

od5/12

4:33 am

Thank you.

4:34 am

do they like to swim, Zoom

4:34 am

no, I don't, pug. I love the swimming but the whole undressing, drying off and redressing is a bit too much

4:34 am

Oh geez that was a fish.

4:36 am

lol only a babbler can say that

4:36 am

:-)

4:37 am

morning all

4:37 am

Ivesy are you still working on your smoking---if its okay to ask you

4:51 am

well good luck to you

4:53 am

sort of concentrating on the new meds rite now. when to take them . making sure to drink lots of water.. they can cause kidney stones. dont want them again.. they are horrible. . so quitting is on back burner. more concerned with getting rid of headaches. dont know if headaches are related to the smoking or not.. its a vicious circle

4:54 am

I can understand all that Ivesy---I hope the new meds works out for you

4:55 am

♪♫Meanwhile...I'm still thinkin'...♫♪

9:54 am

Moll - we've got some flurries going, but naught that needs shoveling. May bundle up the princess & go out in a bit

9:55 am

Yeah, flurries here too. I just keep turning the music up and trying to ignore it. : D

9:57 am

...wonders if judicial gets to order anything she wants at breakfast holding a cattle prod...

9:57 am

Judi...auto correct

9:58 am

Some men here would actually function better with a cattle prod..I am guessing. :D

9:59 am

That's me... the Judicial Cattle Prod. f/k/a Judge Judi.

10:00 am

Ah Mr.Curb Appeal is here..

10:04 am

Morning Helen

I'm not good at chatting and Babbling at the same time, and I keep having to leave for a few minutes often, but I have decided to try to be part of the chat every day. A belated New Year's resolution, I guess!

10:18 am

hi helen - greetings from the se part of the city

welcome, helen.

I hope the weather is as good ther as it is here in Bridgeland, welki!

10:20 am

there's a curious yellow glow in the sky - i think it's called "The Sun"

10:20 am

That's from my halo welki...I just polished it

I hesitate to mention it - it might be shy.

10:21 am

*takes a look at ru and breaks into a rendition of "Blinded By The Light"*

Are you allowed to wear a halo over a bae skull, ru?

bare skull - don't know what a bae skull is.

10:23 am

Oh sure..We've seen a kinds of skulls for years

10:24 am

besides, halos come in "one size fits all" - not that i would ever pass the eligibility exam

10:24 am

All kinds..

10:24 am

how're you doing, owl? all shoveled out?

10:26 am

hi all

10:26 am

hey jen

10:26 am

*guessing welki,'s..canonization plans are on hold...

10:27 am

uhm - 'on hold' is very tactful. my understanding is that they're non-existent

10:27 am

heard there was an earthquake in Aiken County, SC

She can always try for beatification, see if she likes it.

Hi, Jen - that's a marvelous cat.

10:29 am

thank you, that is Calico, a manx, and she lives with my parents. she is aka "my sister"

10:29 am

just googled the earthquake - 4.1 and felt hundreds of miles away!

hey welk. thanks to my neighbor, yes. i just open the garage door and go, like a little princess.

10:29 am

yes, my aunt said it felt like a giant truck

10:29 am

a little princess wearing dancing boots :)

danced to cj chenier last nigh. :) but not with my valentine :(

10:32 am

i think he was at the calgary folk festival - if not last year, the year before

10:32 am

I thought we are supposed 5 mention princesses around here?

my valentine?

10:32 am

Aren't

10:33 am

nooo, chenier

:) loved ssing him accept that grammy lifetime award for his dad

10:33 am

there's an anti-mentioning-princess rule? well boyhowdy, someone should write a handbook

i think it is more a question of tact, tone and timing. some folks can read the phone book offensively.

10:35 am

<-- no tact, off-tone and bad timing

10:36 am

...don't ask me...

LOl i had a boss who preache dthat constantly. i was, like is this the right time to tell you i quit, b*tch?

everything was delicious! Service excellent. I had for appetizer, Duck Confit; Main Course, Roa, st Beef, and Dessert was a fruit tort. But it was a cake, not a tort so I was confused, but it was nice and light.

1:18 pm

They must have changed the menu. I didn't see roast beef on the one I looked at.

1:19 pm

The strawberry and raspberry swirl Crème Brulee with shortbread hearts sounded good. : )

1:22 pm

We went with another couple and she had that.

1:23 pm

I was going to treat myself to Thanksgiving there 2 years ago, but we missed the reservation cut off.

1:29 pm

bummer. I am going to suggest the New Years Brunch for next year.

1:30 pm

It's really good, the first time I went there was for New Year's brunch.

1:30 pm

It's kind of over my budget for out to eat so we don't go there that often.

1:31 pm

yeah, we don't go every often either. It had been years. we went for an anniversary dinner once.

1:49 pm

hi Nef

4:19 pm

good, Nef, you?

4:19 pm

YAY, phand! WTG!

4:19 pm

Thanks!

4:20 pm

I am lazy today. I'd planned to do housework, it's now 4:20 PM and I haven't done a bit of it.

4:21 pm

i should have done laundry but i didn't...tired today....had chinese class and then played recorder duets and went to do grocery shopping...

4:21 pm

I am with you there, Nef! I did make the homemade suet I have been planning on making for a week now though!

4:21 pm

well no use starting now...we all need an off day occasionally

4:21 pm

true story, Lynxxx

4:22 pm

I've been staying up way too late and watching the Olympics and just dragging the past 2 days. So today is turning out to be a rest day. :-) (and remember, I am retired!)

4:22 pm

me, too, lol....

4:23 pm

good for both of you!

4:23 pm

i have to go outside and down stairs to the basement to do laundry, so it's more of a chore than it should be....

4:23 pm

very happy - woke up to rain showers this morning, we haven't had rain for quite a few weeks

4:24 pm

ugh

4:24 pm

Pen, your niece is very talented. She should have a web site.

4:24 pm

the last 3 nights I didn't make it to bed tip after 2:30-3 AM. I've been curled up in the lazy boy with a throw, and I can't even tell you what I've watched (so maybe I haven't been awake???)

4:24 pm

she is busy enough with just her Facebook page....turns down work...

4:25 pm

thanks, Molly....her stuff is also very good tasting...

4:26 pm

I have a friend who did the selftaught cake decoration too - sounds the same. Her work is amazing and she also turns down a lot of work - not even facebook, all word of mouth

4:28 pm

her brother is a chef.... ;o)

4:29 pm

do you have a link to her page, pen?

4:30 pm

no, i don't do facebook....but if you look for Dany's Cakes in Turner ME, you should find her....

4:31 pm

Wow, Mother's Day must be an extravaganza in their family.

4:31 pm

thanks. I will check on it now (not that I'd ever need it since I live in MN; but it gives me 1 more reason to keep procrastinate

4:31 pm

the lace ones are BEAUTIFUL!

4:32 pm

lol....her mother (my sis in law) is a bead artist....she makes beads and small sculptures out of glass via lampwork (flame and glass rods)....

4:32 pm

yes, her lace ones are fairly new...nice for more formal occasions like weddings...

4:33 pm

my sis in law is at cankeep.com....there is a gallery there with her stuff and links to her ebay and etsy sales...

4:33 pm

WOW! Now I'm wondering if she ships anything!

4:33 pm

Well, no lack of creativity in that clan.

4:34 pm

she does some, depending on what you want....you would have to contact her via her Facebook page...

4:34 pm

my sis in law is known in the family as the person who can do or learn to do anything....

4:36 pm

Nice bead work. That is really intricate design.

4:36 pm

you can be very proud of them, pen. Very beautiful cake work.

4:36 pm

very pretty as well - not heard of bead artists before

4:37 pm

how many words are there today? I'm struggling to get past 18!

4:37 pm

only 65 JaxH

4:37 pm

No wonder you have taken up knitting Pen. One could get an inferiority complex in that family. : )

4:38 pm

lol...my niece is the one who taught me....she has done those complicated norwegian sweaters....

4:38 pm

Ican't believe theres another 30 somethng words left in here

4:39 pm

i think my sis in law's beads and small sculptures are amazing....the beads are quite small yet so detailed...

4:39 pm

please don't tell me she is self-taught too

4:40 pm

pretty much...she worked in a glass place but not in the actual glass work division....that sparked her interest....

4:41 pm

she reads a lot... ;o)

4:42 pm

some pretty put the bar up too high! it's a lot for us mere mortals to reach for

4:42 pm

the two of them are quite talented.... creative, artistic, and good with their hands....

4:42 pm

pretty? people!

4:42 pm

I'm creative and good with my hands.. not sure about artistic :D

4:43 pm

my niece once had an order from LL Bean for their board meeting.....she made spring flower cookies but she threw in an extra one that looked just like the traditional LL Bean boot....

4:43 pm

lol ru....

4:43 pm

everyone loves a handyman. Whats with the skull Ru?

4:44 pm

she has had weird cake orders.....Han solo encased in ice...a slot machine....

4:44 pm

ah.. just thought I'd join BR in gruesome icons, death, and misery

4:45 pm

nice boots - haven't heard of them before

4:45 pm

I think you might be a happier soul than BR somehow

4:46 pm

Beans is quite well known here in the states....

4:46 pm

really?.. could be..although according to him .. I have a mental illness because I pun too much :D

4:46 pm

thanks - might take a closer look

4:47 pm

I however don't post grim reaper and death quotes during the Christmas season though

4:48 pm

oh, ruru; it's okay. We still love you. I suspect that we all have our own individual demons....

4:48 pm

lol.. exactly nef.. that's funny

4:50 pm

I guess I've chatted with BR for so many years here that I appreciate him too.

4:50 pm

this is an outlet for him so I don't mind myself. He is a caring person if offbeat most of the time.

4:50 pm

very caring actually when I think about it

4:51 pm

I think we all form mental images of each other here; some based on actual pictures, some on icons, and some just totally our imaginations. I won't tell you about how any of you look in my mind though! ;-)

4:52 pm

and I agree with lynxxx; too.

4:56 pm

I guess that I enjoy almost everyone that I've ever chatted with here. There are a few people who do bug me; and when they show up I slide the chog off the screen or go elsewhere for a while so that I don't let them get to me.

4:56 pm

but don't stop doing you darned awful puns Ru - life here wouldn't be the same without all the groaning

4:56 pm

ditto Nef

4:57 pm

you - your

4:59 pm

now its time to walk Stew - hopefully the rain has settled all the bushfire smoke that has been over the city for the last few days

4:59 pm

bye all

4:59 pm

bye

5:00 pm

A friend I've known on a private nursing chat board for about 13-14 years says her Mother refers to her online friends as her "little internet friends" and my friend says her Mom must think we are imaginary friends just like when she was a kid.

5:00 pm

bye lynxxx. Good luck breathing!

5:01 pm

funny, nef...

5:02 pm

catching up on my NY Times crossword puzzles...

5:02 pm

bought some yarn today to do a hat... ;o)

5:03 pm

I can't stop doing puns.. I have an illness :D

5:03 pm

i like your puns...

5:04 pm

It is funny, pen. About 25 of us met up with each other back in 2003 in Las Vegas; there are about 50 or so members from around the world and some have met individually in smaller groups. We are hoping to get together again in Las Vegas this fall

5:04 pm

saw a pun website, wanted to share but you were not in chat and for some reason I did not save it :(

5:05 pm

cos look on your manage history button

5:05 pm

hey cos; I think ruru does very well on his own!

5:05 pm

cool....i met up with people i worked with online at Cybersites (themed community sites) in Las Vegas in 2000....it was a lot of fun....

5:05 pm

I erase it daily. Never know when I'm gonna be murdered and the cops look up my history :P (Yes Yes I know it is never deleted but humor me)

5:07 pm

LOL, cos! :-D

5:08 pm

cos..LOL

5:09 pm

pen, some of the members of our nurse group are closer than any of their real life friends.

5:09 pm

O:-)

5:10 pm

i believe that...sometimes it's easier to share your innermost thoughts/feelings when you are not seen by the person you are speaking to....

5:13 pm

One of the members is a guy in Iowa; when he came up to the Twin Cities back before the Las Vegas meet up, we met at a Perkins for lunch. DH was "concerned" that I was meeting a guy from the internet; so he came along. Afterwards he told me that he needs to remember that I've always had guy friends and he thinks I'm a pretty good judge of character

5:15 pm

cool...

5:15 pm

we are expecting 10 to 18 inches tonight.....and tomorrow in the low 20s and windy.....YUCK!

5:17 pm

BRRRRR!

5:19 pm

Man, it's true what they say about perspective. It's a weird and very skewed thing.

5:19 pm

Hey there MPitt : )

5:19 pm

Hey Molly...waves!

5:20 pm

perspective of what molly?

5:21 pm

Molly...cracked up at your icon

5:21 pm

oops...PB

5:21 pm

yeah.. I like it too .. very funny.. especially for east coasters

5:22 pm

yes, molly...your icon captured my thoughts particularly tonight!

5:22 pm

Hey pen welcome to the PB

5:22 pm

Perspective as in the way people see things. One person sees it one way, another a very different way.

5:23 pm

hi Molly and MPittore. (My son bought some groceries and asked me to check them out so I wandered off for a bit)

5:23 pm

ah...but i don't believe in that "rule".... ;o)

5:23 pm

Hi nef...

5:23 pm

why not pen there are goodies in here

5:24 pm

Pen doesn't eat goodies : P

5:24 pm

ah.. so very true here in babbleland

5:24 pm

oh!...goodies...i forgot....on my way!

5:24 pm

i can eat virtual goodies... ;o)

5:25 pm

...well if THOSE are the rules.. I have virtual thoughts too :D

5:25 pm

makes sure PB has plenty of virtual goodies baking more...

5:25 pm

tytyty!

5:25 pm

1 of the things my son bought was some "party flavored" peeps. I just had to taste one, they taste just like all of them.

5:25 pm

Let us not confuse virtual with virtuous

5:26 pm

oops gained a virtual pound!

5:26 pm

oh..yeah.. that's what I meant virtuous LD

5:26 pm

This is why I do not send male children grocery shopping. If one of them spent my grocery money on Peeps they would get smacked upside the head.

5:27 pm

don't eat those in Colorado nef.. party-flavored peeps will kick your ass

5:27 pm

Hello, everyone! And as the sun sinks slowly in the west...

5:27 pm

hello mimi

5:27 pm

I think they smoke the peeps in CO

5:27 pm

LOL

5:27 pm

Dude...pass the Peeps

5:28 pm

Molly, it's his own money, so I can't complain.

5:28 pm

i LOVE peeps!....

5:28 pm

Peeps all around the chat...

5:28 pm

My new vice is Pop Chips...yum. I like salty more than sweet.

5:28 pm

Oh Nef, in that case, make sure you eat as much as you can of what he bought. Turnaround is fair play.

5:29 pm

preparing munchies for later...

5:29 pm

LOL!

5:29 pm

at Thanksgiving one year someone used peeps to top the sweet potatoes... didn't have the usual marshmallows... i have also roasted peeps over a fire...

5:29 pm

MPitt is such an accommodating hostess

5:29 pm

I better go for a walk with Dylan before it rains.

5:31 pm

Molly I think I have cabin fever from this dam* snow

5:31 pm

Rain? ((ruru)) I'm envious...

5:31 pm

I've never understood Peeps. Marshmallow is almost all sugar. Why add more?

5:31 pm

but they have sugar free peeps...that's what we get

5:31 pm

a chacun son gout....

5:32 pm

MPitt, hang on. Topper says 60 degrees on Thursday. YOWZA!

5:32 pm

oh ru I hope it rains in CA...

5:32 pm

yes I could kiss Topper!

5:32 pm

We really need the rain here in Phoenix...always.

5:33 pm

we might get to 40 on Thur....it will create a sloshy mess....

5:33 pm

Yes Pen, to each his own (I have Cajun friends)

5:33 pm

yes but it's critical in CA

5:38 pm

"winter hurricane"....can't wait... :o(

5:39 pm

Who said hurricane parties were just for Summer time?

5:41 pm

hi again

5:41 pm

i am just glad i don't need to go anywhere tonight or tomorrow...

5:42 pm

Good Pen, leave that for the crazy ones.

5:43 pm

yes... i will have to shovel out my car....if it's windy, could mean less work...

5:45 pm

back later

5:56 pm

was up to 69 today.

6:10 pm

oh.. that's a little racy here isn't it cos :D

6:11 pm

so typical

6:13 pm

00 on the behalf of many here. please go screw yourself

6:14 pm

ruru and o-o, play nice.

6:16 pm

I've been on the phone for a terribly long time (a bed-ridden friend who lives alone and was lonely), so now that I came back; play nice.

6:17 pm

not enjoying this grid. not one bit

6:18 pm

just past halfway, and still 8 blank tiles

6:18 pm

I agree, Harry. I'm half way and can't see anything else.

6:18 pm

make another call nef..he's being a jerk

6:19 pm

that is not fair to Nef ruru. what is up?

6:19 pm

I have NBT and NBS, Harry, would you like the stats or clues for those 8 blank tiles

6:20 pm

nah - too much work. I've got a pile of old mail to get through.

6:20 pm

but thanks

6:20 pm

ruru, *I* didn't make the call; she called me.

6:22 pm

hi Bugs. How are you today?

6:22 pm

hi nef,ruru, and bugsaw!

6:22 pm

I think it's plenty fair for Ru to defend himself when someone makes a snide remark about him.

6:23 pm

me too

6:23 pm

I am well thanks Nef. I discovered that I can now point my toe on the bad foot as much as the good foort! ONe step closer to walking better

6:23 pm

hi Jenn

6:24 pm

lol just saw the comment.. thought of that too :P

6:25 pm

hi cos!

6:26 pm

yeah.. I was just teasing you Cos.. it isn't anyone else's business as far as I'm concerned

6:26 pm

I'm glad it's getting better, Bugs.

6:28 pm

It went over my head, cos until ruru commented. Then I was wondering what anyone said-- then went DUH!

6:29 pm

I am glad SOME people around here have a sense of humor for the inane

6:30 pm

U know what I wonder Ru?

6:30 pm

what's that cos?

6:31 pm

what in heavens name were the people at little debbie thinking wen they named their muffins "litte debbie's little muffins"?

6:31 pm

lol

6:32 pm

I'm just always a bit slow, ruru, And cos, the Little Debbie people probably named them that long before the term changed meanings

6:33 pm

that comment about humor wasn't in any way directed at you nef.

6:34 pm

I am just sick of his hit and run comments and abusive behavior.. that's all.

6:34 pm

I guessed I missed something.

6:34 pm

on a lighter note, anyone that knows me, knows, I don't cook. Well, I nearly caused my husband to have a heart attack as I cooked dinner tonight!

6:35 pm

I figured I would reward him for working on taxes and FASFA all day

6:35 pm

oh, I know, ruru. I'm just saying that *I* was really SLOW at understanding what you were commenting on

6:35 pm

Nice, phand!

6:36 pm

*Just fainted after hearing Phan cooked*

6:36 pm

what did you cook?

6:37 pm

I know, Molly it is shocking! Well, I heated up a jar of spagetti sauce and boiled some water and cooked some spinich raviolis. Also, made some cheesy garlic bread.

6:38 pm

Ah, it's the jar of spaghetti sauce thing Cos. : D

6:38 pm

So, I didn't kill myself to make dinner!

6:38 pm

I mean, I didn't want to cause any fatalities...

6:40 pm

I'm glad your hubby survived the shock, phand! ;-)

6:41 pm

OPENING A JAR .. can be very hard work.. I'm impressed Phan :D

6:41 pm

I almost sprained my wrist!

6:41 pm

<---sending healing thoughts to the wrist :D

6:42 pm

thanks, I appreciate that!

6:42 pm

fireworks for me

6:42 pm

way to go, Jen!

6:42 pm

good going jen

6:42 pm

Don't forget the slaving over the pot of boiled water part.

6:43 pm

I did break a sweat!

6:43 pm

and knowing when the water is ready too

6:43 pm

YAY, Jen! WTG!!!

6:43 pm

ravioli .. does sound kinda good actually :D

6:44 pm

that, Ruru, is the most tricky part. That and timing the bread. It was close, I could have burned it.

6:44 pm

I don't cook either, I have no stove or oven

6:44 pm

LOL. phan

6:44 pm

I've never tried cheesy garlic bread, phand. That sounds *almost* gourmet to me! ;-)

6:44 pm

I'll give her points for not going the Chef Boyardee route.

6:44 pm

thank you, Molly!

6:45 pm

if it were up to MRs Ru.. ovens would be storage for sweaters

6:45 pm

so, Nef, the bread was a baguette, buttered, grated some fresh parm and add garlic powder

6:45 pm

in my book thats cooking phan!

6:47 pm

:^) Cos

6:48 pm

ruru, we didn't have an oven for about 6 years in our old house. We had a cooktop; and the oven was in storage for years because DH and I couldn't agree on if the oven would fit where I wanted to put it.

6:48 pm

I prefer having double ovens.. in my next house.. I'm putting them in and a 5 burner wolf range

6:49 pm

Finally we had a n argument about something, and I just went ahead and put a big old hole in the wall where I wanted to put the oven. :-)

6:49 pm

I can't imagine not having an oven for 6 years.

6:49 pm

(DH *never* fights with me anymore)

6:49 pm

lol nef

6:49 pm

Go, Nef!

6:51 pm

In our first house, I tore down a whole wall when he didn't listen to me about something. I haven't had to do any drastic remodeling in this house yet in 21 years.

65 ?? !! OOOPH!

6:51 pm

you aren't Kathy Bates are you NEF?

6:52 pm

,---obscure Fried Green Tomatoes reference

6:52 pm

ruru, I'm not Kathy Bates. It's just that he's learned not to do stupid things after 39 years of marriage.

6:53 pm

ah.. that's where I messed up

6:53 pm

Bets Mr. Nef sleeps with one eye open.

6:54 pm

I only did the remodeling when he did some REALLY stupid things that I had told him not to do

6:54 pm

lol... good call molly

6:54 pm

Nope, Molly. I've got him convinced I'm a saint

6:55 pm

So we really need to talk about the fact that Ru calls The Princess Bride a chick flick, but he's seen Fried Green Tomatoes. : P

6:55 pm

lol...

6:56 pm

Jessica Tandy would never be in a CHICK flick

6:56 pm

agreed, Molly!

6:56 pm

LOL!

6:57 pm

Next thing you know he will be talking about the classic Angela Bassett scene in Waiting To Exhale. Burn baby burn.

odyssey = phantom

6:58 pm

<---not an Angela Bassett fan
