Good morning
bon matin to you ruby
Et a toi, cherie!
I will be in Paris on May 2 and 3
Where will you stay?
Try to go to the Jardin des Plantes, where there is an iris garden in frontt of a little museum on the east side of the garden. If you'rre Lucky, the display will be splendid§
In a hotel. On the third we'll go to Giverny
I've only seen it once, but there Zr probably 50 different kinds of iris.
The iris garden is better than Giverny!!
Good idea
I mademy "Giverny pilgrimage" a long time ago, when they were dredging out the ponds.
It was a long time ago, but I hope the irises are still there. It was truly an accidental find
I wish we had more days there. It's the end of our cruise on German Rivers
J'adore Paris!
My first husband and I rented a house for 5 months in Boulogne-Billancourt in'67, one block from the Bois
My life is much duller than yours. I've never had the opportunity to live in Paris.
The marriage wasn't any ggood, but it had a great ttravelpackage
He was a professor at Queens
rare
rare
You married your prof?
He wasn't "mine" but he was there and I was sooo Young!
That sounds exciting. I married a man I met at the movies
I love that! How old were you?
24
Much more worldly than I! LOL
How old were you
19 and he was 31. Luckily, although we married at the end of my junior year, I was able to get my B.A.
I left himwhen I was 27
That sounds romantic, but in this age he would have been fired
Hahah, but I pursued him! He was very shy
Thinking about Paris, I just had a Pastis
Not what I was thinking.
What were you thinking?
Older man looking for "half his age"
No no, I was a minx and wanted to marry a prof
LOL
And after oue first trip to Paris, in 1964, I decided that I wanted to live in France.
It only took 34 years for me to realize that deam
Whaat year did you leave Queens?
I wanted to live in Israel, but met Mr. Bich
I graduated in '63 and moved to Pullman, Washington for summer, and then to Caarbondale IL, where my son was born
I lived at home until I married
I didn't start there til '64
I entered in 59 at 16
Those were the days when they skipped kids in school.
Yup, I was always the youngest and the shortest
Now I'm the oldest and definitely thee shortest
My fathere was like that. He regretted not being as socially mature as the others.
My father, too. He skipped two or three grades in Schenectady, but then his mother sent him to work
My dad was the only of 4 children who finished high school
My father went to work so his brothers could go to college
So unfair
But he was very smart and a math whiz, so he taught me algebra when I was 10 or so
I was very fortunate to have had those parents
I just found 4 words, French for lost

Hiya folks. Risking jinxing it, but I have an interview for a very high level job. Wish me luck! Haven't done so well in the other interviews I have had lately.
crossing fingers and toes for you, origami!
sending lots of good, calming vibes your way origami.
Hi ori! Good Luck & wishing you all sorts of good interview vibes!
Thanks guys!!!!
dares
dare
DARN! Sorry (off to PB again!)
Nef is not in the wrong box. She is just daring you to be confident!
:D
Thanks, Bugsaw! (Yeah, that's right!) ;-)
It is a 4 hour interview - for heaven's sakes.
Wow!!
I will dare to be confident and brilliant.
I hate interviews but the one I totally aced was the one when I went in absolutely confident in my abilities so I didn't have to worry about sounding conceited.
Ori, just remember that you are a very competent person & you can do it!
and keep us posted on how it went.
An interview that long must mean that they are seriously looking at you so take it as a good sign instead of an endurance course.
I AM competent and very good at what I do. Thanks friends. I will spend the weekend pumping up my self-confidence, which is a weakness with me.
I will keep you posted!
you go girl!!!
:D
That's right. For my last (paid) job; I just interviewed for it because I thought I needed more interview experience. I felt like I wasn't qualified for the job (nurse manager for a prenatal program) because I never worked in that field before. They called me back 3 more times; & hired me because they felt I had the qualities they were looking for.

Thanks Harry. See, I knew I could come here ad get support from my awesome friends here!
You can do it! Just seeing you here in this game & how you interact with others shows you have good interpersonal skills. I have no idea what you do "outside" this game; but you don't seem to be a ditz. ;-)
Thanks Nef! The job is the Director of Business Affairs for a university. I have sweaty palms already :D
Use dry antiperspirant on your palms that morning! ;-)
Will do Nef!
(it does help!)
(Maybe you should try it before the interview though; you don't want sticky palms at the interview)
Will do.
81 left. going to the list.
I have 210 left; any chance I could ever possibly finish tonight? :-D
just list Nef. It goes pretty quickly then
a through n complete. 57 to go :)
DUH! My own private rule is I can't list until I'm over half way; but I rarely list even then -probably because I start chatting more than I actually look for words? ;-) I'll take your advice & see how I do! Thanks
GO, Harry! You can do it!
I have other stuff I have to do tonight. So wishing you all good luck. And thanks for the support.
have a good night origami
niters, ori!

You'll be done by 11 PM, Harry!

night harry
hi mool
and ran for governor of Texas. . .
hey Nef :)
I just read your profile jmc to see what your icon was. You've been very busy!
hey j
it was fund in TX and got to meetup with a babbler
I should find that photo. . .
Which babbler, jmc?
i thought it was time to get my cape out of mothballs. . .
I was afraid you would ask that. . . haha let me see if I can figure that out. . .
(I keep trying to enter part & it won't take it! (Must be my midwest accent?)
I'm glad you did! I can just about see it (but I don't know the color!)
stats for the A in the top corner please. . .
apparently persun doesn't work
at 4/5
LOL, Mool!
peaple probably doesn't work either then I bet
What kind of "accent" are you blaming that on, mool?
my accent is so messed up, not sure it has a classification :)
ty mool
yw j, took me a little longer to find it before
these P's are problematic
i found her real name but i thought the FB babble community had a list that I could translate it into babblease
It took me a long time to find it; then right after I found it; someone else asked & got the clue.
jmc, there is a list. but it's compressed & not in the chat column
sciencegeek I think . . . .
got it ty
well there's a bunch of p's
lickety finally gave up?
not sure, don't use the lists
what do you mean lickety gave up?
I'm trying to use the list; it isn't easy to do because I'm trying to use it & other words (that I'm not looking for) keep popping up!
lickety us** to provide a list every day . . . I was just wondering if he still did since I don't get here regularly anymore. . .
yep
and hi Q
if you hang around another hour or so, will probbably see the announcement in chat
he still does; I'm trying to use it
oh okay. . . good to know. . . what a nice guy to do it all these years. . .
stats for the e in the second column please for nbt. . .
I keep trying to find out how that Georgia vote is going; all I hear is "it's close"
ugh I hope it isn't that close. . . .
ed 4/7 & 5/16
You haven't heard anything either?
Washington Post says Democrat leading tho runoff still possible
http://wapo.st/2pA3cEm
yes the NYT said the same thing. . . but it is a victory for the Dems to get even that close in that district. . . .
BBC just said (again) that it was close; but the reporter was in front of a polling place & the sun was out (long shadows, but still bright sunlight)
ty nef for the stats
YW.
slap me with a fish. . . haha
but NBT and I am off to bed. . .
bye all. . . .
I've tried to add "serge" about 4 times already
Niters, jmc! Take care (& keep your cape out!) :-D
:) starched and ironed and ready to go Nef. . .
Woo Hoo, jmc!
Fox article says democrat has dropped below 50%, but there's technical problems so doubt they'll find out tonight
I just read a PCCC email that says he's in 1st place (but it doesn't give the %).
yeah, I have a Fox5Atlanta.com article that says he dropped below 50%, but doesn't say how much or how much reported
48.6%
