Ah well, once a year I can do with lesser sleep, lol. They are having a great time. I will wake my husband in a short while to make them breakfast. Each his own, hahaha, he slept!
12:47 am

my son had a sleepover here last weekend and actually they put themselves to bed and to sleep before 10pm! And he's only 7. He was reallllly tired that night

12:52 am
kristinc
thanks sprite :) People on babble have been wonderful! ((((Sprite)))
((((kierlex))))
12:52 am
kierlex
do you have a good pad for wherever you are laying? a good, thick eggshell pad came in handy (especialy when my water broke all over it and saved our futon mattress! lol)
12:54 am
kierlex
i want hagle to work. and gleer. and pung....
12:54 am
sprite
Perhaps we should drop the whole enable dictionary and make our own babble version!
12:54 am
kristinc
nothing that that kierlex...I actually try to change where I sit from time to time but I have wondered about whether to invest in at least a waterproof mattress pad (for the future I hope!) I can still be up and around a bit within the house.
12:55 am
kierlex
that sound like a plan, sprite
12:56 am
kristinc
yes...let's rewrite the dictionary! (mine would not include any re-words)
12:56 am
FranMag
kierlex that last one does work, it's the stopper for a keg
12:56 am
kierlex
oh, i see kristin. i was on strict bedrest (well, i tried the wandering around the house bedrest and landed in the hospital) so it was worth having something for comfort.
12:56 am
sprite
I soooo much wanted 'wootsier' yesterday.
12:56 am
FranMag
remember pu4/8 in the wizard of id?
12:56 am
kierlex
oooh, so it does! thanks franmag
12:57 am
kierlex
i didnt think about a waterproof pad because my water didn't break with my first baby.
12:57 am
kristinc
no, they want me up and about a bit...not more than 5-10 minutes at a time (but believe me, I take advantage of those)
12:57 am
libarebel
hmm... good idea, kristinc ;)
12:57 am
FranMag
mine didn't break until doctor was about to break it herself with my first
12:57 am
kierlex
doesnt it seem like there is a high percentage of women on here all the time? i think that is cool (apologies to any lurking men)
12:58 am
kierlex
yeah, with my first they broke it for me but it wasn't nearly as dramatic as when it broke at home in the living room. my 4 year old son was totally impressed by that!
12:58 am
sprite
Probably because we women tend to do lots of things at the same time, while most men will start the babble, work at it, then take their attention elsewhere?
12:59 am
kierlex
actually i got my husband addicted and he will just sit here for hours during prime housecleaning/cooking/couldnt you do something else time instead of late at night like me, perfect woman lol
12:59 am

For a lot of biggies, use the ending of our dictionary. I found the 9 too, St9/66.
1:12 am
kierlex
ohhh thanks sprite. i am such a newbie at this
1:13 am
sprite
Endings like that usually generate many nice words :)
1:13 am
evilolive
ha 4/7 seems to be a popular start for words today. i have 5 others starting with that.
1:13 am
sprite
My tip: try it on anything even remotely likely to produce a word, lol. Some might be surprising.
1:14 am
kierlex
i only found 2 with that ending sprite... will keep trying
1:15 am
sprite
there are at least 3 x T with it. And don't forget the dictionary itself, plus someone doing it.
1:16 am
sprite
evil: true! That's a nice nest of them there.
For the ending: there is a unnice H too.
1:17 am
kierlex
i got one t and then the dictionary and the doer
1:17 am
sprite
1x Te, 2x Tu.
1:18 am

For the St7: shorthand, drop last letter, then 1st 2 letters of what you need to open to enter the garden, add one more consonant.
2:01 am
dicktrickle
nice one...great clue sprite
2:02 am
dicktrickle
i hate words that aren't words
2:02 am

the other Sp5/14 starts the same as the disgusting one, then short version of 'not low'
2:03 am

Wait.... not the same, it has another vowel, the start!
2:03 am

Spungle should so be a word. Morning from a hungover matty (and possibly still squiffy)
2:08 am

2:08 am

Morning matty!

kierlex

2:33 am
sprite
Eek kierlex!
Ok, for the stupidhead words department: there is Ou4/7 and Ou6/16, for changeling or simpleton, usually spelled a lot simpler. They are alt. spellings of eachother, not a plural.
2:33 am

Good morning all. Dr_God is making us work hard again...

hi haz :)
3:15 am
Haz1558
Good morning Atalante - I never did get back to finish yesterday's so hopefully I might get on better today. How are you?
3:16 am
Jacula
Good Morning, Hazel, Paige, Maddie, Atalante. Just arrived to copy out the grid. Not sure how much, if any I'll do today as it's my son's 22nd birthday and we're off out for lunch etc.
3:16 am
Atalante
looking after an unhappy spaniel! Its pouring down with rain so she doesn't want to go for a walk - she hates *wet* - so she's running around trying to get rid of energy and pestering me!
3:16 am
Haz1558
Good morning Jacula - happy birthday to son! And Atalante - a spaniel that hates the wet? Is that not unusual?
3:17 am
Jacula
Spaniels are 'supposed' to be water dogs. LOL.
3:18 am
Atalante
she's an unusual dog LOL. she hates bad weather - refuses to go out on windy or rainy days. *sigh*
3:18 am
Atalante
and I mean *refuses*. digs her heels in and refuses to move out of the front door
3:18 am
egm
i hate my brother
3:18 am
egm
he is so annoying
3:19 am
Haz1558
She IS unusual, then! Spangle deliberately heads for puddles and letting her off the lead anywhere near a river is asking for trouble.
3:19 am
Jacula
Oh dear! I'd better watch how much I eat at the carvery this lunchtime... The first two words I've spotted are hu4/8 & hi4/6! :(
3:20 am
Atalante
Hobbit likes puddles when she's actually out, but that's about it. She occasionally ventures into the sea up to about tummy level, but if there's waves, she runs away!
3:20 am
ExWren
Morning all, just popped in to see if I am playing today. I eventually started yesterdays when I found out that the evenings TV was dominated by football and cricket! Didn't finish though
3:20 am
Jacula
egm - I believe brothers are mean to be annoying. He's just fulfilling his purpose in life. *grins*
3:21 am
Haz1558
Not a happy combination, Jacula! Good morning ex-Wren - so are you playing today?
3:21 am
Jacula
*meant to be annoying. Sorry, I haven't had my cup of tea yet. Brain's not functioning.
3:21 am
egm
but he alway has sumting to say back at me
3:21 am
Jacula
Morning, ExWren.:)
3:22 am
ExWren
Still debating. It's raining so I won't be gardening - perhaps
3:22 am
Haz1558
Will this rain ever end do you think?
3:22 am
Atalante
don't think so
3:23 am
Atalante
Kent is underwater
3:23 am
egm
its not raining in adelaide
3:23 am
Atalante
you're in adelaide? lucky you!
3:23 am
KittyVane
Send some of that rain our way, it's still too dry over here, pollen and dust all over the place!
3:24 am
ExWren
We are leaving for a break on Sunday, and was hoping for some decent weather, not much hope so far. We are only going down to the Isle of Wight!
3:24 am
Haz1558
Good morning Kitty - we would if we could!
3:25 am
jess is cool l
hey egm
3:25 am

its only really cold in adelaide

I just vacuumed and dusted yesterday, and it's dust bunies the size of our cat here already
3:25 am
Jacula
Good morning Kitty. Congratulations on winning the Eurovision Song Contest. Well, not you personally, but Lordi for your country.
3:26 am
KittyVane
Thank you, all of us finns are still a little stunned over it
3:26 am
Jacula
Kitty - I think they're great.
3:26 am
KittyVane
they are
3:27 am
Atalante
do you know Carrington St in Adelaide, egm? Used to live there for a while :)
3:27 am
egm
i hav to go bcoz callum the gay has to go on
3:27 am
KittyVane
a friend of mine was actually their first keyboardist, she left the band last summer
3:27 am
egm
and the other people
3:27 am
jess is cool l
cya
3:27 am
Jacula
Kitty - bet she's kicking herself now!
3:28 am
KittyVane
not really, she didn't get along too well with some of the band members and she's glad to be rid of them
3:29 am
Haz1558
And think of having to wear those masks all the time!
3:29 am
KittyVane
she's the kind of gal who would see going to the Eurovision as being against the band's image
3:29 am
KittyVane
she only had a half mask
3:30 am
Jacula
Yes. Is it true that they never appear in public without the masks. They ARE masks, aren't they?? LOL.
3:31 am
KittyVane
Yup, they don't want to show their real faces in public, as that would take away from the image of the band, make them seem ordinary
3:31 am
KittyVane
and yes, they are masks :D they design and make them themselves
3:32 am
Jacula
Kitty. I can see you friend's point about the band's image re entering the Eurovision but them doing so, and winning, may well bring about a long-needed change (for the contest).
3:33 am
KittyVane
I sure hope so, the skirts were getting way too short and the songs way too boring and dull
3:34 am
Haz1558
The voting is my favourite bit. Where do they find the cheesy hosts?
3:34 am
Jacula
It's time Sweden stopped trying to find another ABBA. It won't happen.
3:34 am
Jacula
Haz - I miss Katie Boyle with her 'French' scoring and her poodle. LOL.
3:35 am
KittyVane
my favourite bit was Wogan's narrating of the competiton (I watched it on BBC)
3:36 am
Haz1558
I remember dear Katie as well. We're showing our age. And yes, Kitty, Terry doesn't hold back, does he?
3:37 am
KittyVane
our narrators went speechless as the voting unfolded
3:37 am
KittyVane
and by the end they were just screaming and whooping :)
3:39 am
Jacula
There were some very strang songs/ideas this year. The woman from the Ukraine sounded to be singing, ' Show me your butt' and 'Shoot Felix every day'. (!) The Turkish woman reminded me of Brigitte Nielson as Red Sonja. Lithuania were taking the p**. Latvia's song was plain weird. Spain's song was strange. Germany went country with their version of Dolly Parton. Denmark were singing about The Twist but were breakdancing (?). Russia had a woman trapped in a piano and the UK decided that a rubbish rap song wouldn't be noticed if they dressed woman up as schoolgirls to dance around.
3:39 am
lshult
I'm just trying to forget the desaster that was eurovision.
3:39 am
Jacula
Hi Ishult.
3:40 am
KittyVane
Hello Ishult
3:40 am
lshult
at the half way mark today, but have only 3 7's & noyhing bigger
3:40 am
Jacula
... and I might be able to type properly once I'd drunk some tea. LOL.
3:40 am
Haz1558
Ever since the woman from Turkey won with her expanding ribbon corset, they've been trying to be ultra-clever with costumes.
3:40 am
KittyVane
I'm trying to forget the Eurovision too, but it's impossible what with them talking about on telly all the time!
3:41 am
Jacula
*or even I've drunk some tea.
3:41 am
lshult
oooh, having a bit of a typing desaster today
3:41 am
Jacula
Ishult - You're not alone!
3:41 am
Haz1558
Right - have to go but will be back later.
3:42 am
lshult
the cleaver euro costumes startrd way back with Bucs Fizz!!
3:42 am
Jacula
Oh, the ripped off skirts. Remember that!
3:43 am
Atalante
bucks fizz were fab!
3:43 am
Atalante
the russian entry this year was just mind-boggling. did anyone understand the woman-in-piano?
3:43 am
Jacula
My vote for the Worst Song this year went to Croatia.
3:44 am
lshult
Atalante, shouldn't say that too loud!!!
3:44 am
KatieMcG
the one that ripped off her skirt this year really did end up showing too much :)
3:44 am
Atalante
BUCKS FIZZ WERE FAB! I don't care LOL they were better than anything this year *laughs*
3:44 am
KatieMcG
Atalante - I couldn't work out where the rest of her body was she must have been in agony
3:44 am
Jacula
Hi Katie. As Terry Wogan said, 'It was a legs year'.
3:45 am
Atalante
I know! poor girl!
3:45 am
KittyVane
maybe she was legless :)
3:45 am
KatieMcG
Hi Jacula - it certainly was, the one in the bikini was amazing
3:46 am
KittyVane
apparently the song had the same themes as the ballet Giselle, so they put some ballerinas on stage... although that doesn't explain the ger in the piano
3:47 am
KatieMcG
I thought that the best song won, if only for being something different, and the makeup was fantastic
3:47 am
Atalante
apparently it was very existentialist. or something
3:48 am
Atalante
I'm sooo glad Finland won. the song was awful - sorry kitty - but they completely deserved to win for being different and a breath of "fresh" air
3:48 am
KittyVane
the song is awful! that's the point of it
3:48 am
Jacula
The song was virtually Alice Cooper's 'Poison' but the band deserved to win.
3:49 am
KatieMcG
Now you are all judging it on normality, cast your mind back to Saturday and how bad all the others were and in that light the song was quite good :)
3:49 am
Atalante
lol yes! some were truly appalling
3:50 am
KittyVane
I think it's nice that the band went there to have fun and to shake things up and then to everyone's surprise won!
3:50 am
Jacula
As soon as I heard Lordi I said, 'Yes! That's the winner for me!' I was just amazed that all the other countries agreed. I was so pleased when they won. I love rock and all it's theatre.
3:51 am
Jacula
It's nice to see the fun back in music.

ha5/12-alt spelling of not likingn someone
5:23 am
amandacath
ba6/30 - + mash, I think
5:23 am
Haz1558
The ba6/30 is another way of saying sausage!
5:23 am
Onpaki
i think it is the other one i'm missing, eva.
5:24 am
amandacath
Ah - now I know!
5:24 am
Eva
what do you know Amanda?
5:24 am
amandacath
what british ba6/30 is, Eva
5:25 am
Eva
oh-I've been assuming the sausages?
5:25 am
Haz1558
Just to be confusing it can also be a firework or an old car.
5:25 am
amandacath
Onpaki - are you looking for the hawaiian word for white guys?
5:26 am
Onpaki
er, i'm not sure. haha.
5:26 am
Eva
thanks amanda. Always forget that one
5:26 am
amandacath
But most people wouldn't eat those for breakfast, would they, Haz?
5:27 am
Haz1558
If they value their health they wouldn't eat any type of banger for breakfast - at least not every day!
5:27 am
amandacath
I wouldn't have gotten the ha either, but someone clued it before. It's ha + a bullfight word, Onpaki
5:29 am
Kateq
ha + 4 letter spread without the last letter
5:32 am

5:33 am
david.m1fcf

5:44 am
amandacath
Haz, does ha8/60 start with the noose?
5:45 am
Kateq
ha 8 60 does start w/ noose
5:45 am
amandacath
nvm - got it: it's where the t4/8s l6/27 around
5:45 am
Haz1558
It starts with the noose and ends by becoming a place where you would gather to relax.
5:45 am
Kateq
ha 8/60 = places for teens

Hiya, everyone!!!!
Well, there's no mistaking who I've chosen for my icon today, so don't even bother guessing.....
6:01 am
Eva
the heavy street lingo is there
6:02 am
Haz1558
Don't forget some of us need glasses MM
6:02 am
gramma
Good morning everybody! I'm back from my frantic race to work....just an hour early. It's a long story which involves, the power going out...me resetting the clocks....did't have my glasses...you get the idea
6:03 am
amandacath
heavy street lingo, Eva? Morning gramma!
6:03 am
Eva
hi gramma-take some long deep breaths. There must be lightning or something going on somewhere down the line because it isn't rainy or windy, but we had a momentary power loss too
6:04 am
Eva
amanda-you probably have it already-obese ph word
6:04 am
amandacath
Ah, yep had that one
6:05 am
Eva
vowels are ha8!
6:05 am
gramma
I ha**It will be a long deserved weekend to start my day this way. Just on a dead run, yelling at my honey, OMG it's 8 !
6:08 am
Eva
61 left. Not bad for the first sweep through, but now Merp is harassing my sleeping partner. I don;'t like rewarding him for this behavior, completely lame operant conditioning, but otherwise he'll go on and on so he wins. Kitty breakfast time.
6:08 am
amandacath
...what about the other two ph's?
6:09 am
Haz1558
They're what it sounds like when the power goes out!
6:10 am

6:11 am
bookgrrl
eva--my cats annoyed me through the night...turns out i forgot to leave them more food before i went to bed last night...
6:11 am
amandacath
ummm, what does dark sound like?
6:11 am
Haz1558
It's a combination of two words which together form 'can be spoken out'
6:12 am
gramma
dinoshadow, sorry I don't have it
6:12 am
Haz1558
Sorry amandacath - it's probably more apt to describe the other ph words as sound-alike words for a candle being put out.
6:12 am
Jera
Morning, all... blog is invalid, eh?
6:13 am
Haz1558

Okay - the rain has eased off so I'll take the dog for a walk. There are some good Scots and Irish words today. lo5/18 is the Irish version of a loch, and ha5/20 is a low-lying Scots meadow. Both words are good for clearing the throat! Be back later.

Atalante

8:29 am
Eva
atalante-I keep trying the only exppression of disgust I see there-u__ and it doesn't work
8:29 am
jbp
is the disgust expression like what a sheep says?
8:30 am
Atalante
ok. abbreviation for street + abbreviation for the language we're writing now + 1st vowel + consonant
8:31 am
Atalante
thats a bit of a better clue I *think*
8:31 am
musicmom
AHA! Not a st** gun.
8:31 am
Eva

Glad to hear you're tutoring, actually -- I'd say you were always at your best 1:1, but that might not sound...appropriate.
10:39 am

10:39 am

10:55 am
BGL
I tried that earlier also, jeffer
10:56 am
hetty
Yes, thaks everyone, I know many of you have done the modern thing (as required in many passwords) of adding numbers etc. to your real name. It's just I felt rather old-fashioned. But then I am!
10:56 am
jeffer
ah yes, ty hurshy
10:57 am

11:10 am
hurshy
munner - it sounds like it would be a shaky link (but it's not)
11:10 am
bunnyvicious
te 6/21 - spell like a game played with racket and yellow ball, add 5th vowel right in the middle instead of double cons
11:10 am
Atalante
isnt it funny monkey typing randomly for allof your last words?
11:11 am
hurshy
so what's the fourth 8 besides the ha's and the ro
11:11 am
KatieMcG
OK going to battle the traffic now. Will probably log on in about 2 hours a little more stressed with a glass of wine in hand :)

11:21 am
Atalante
I need 1. I need 1 of most letters - so annoying!
11:21 am

11:21 am
hurshy
yes i agree krys
11:21 am
bunnyvicious
which two Hursh?
11:21 am
hurshy
esp since i need 6 more h's

11:22 am
hurshy
probably 5's. i'm bad at 5's.
11:23 am
hurshy
yes in fact i have only one t5, a plural.
11:23 am
hurshy
come to think of it i'm bad at everything but 4's
11:23 am
bunnyvicious

11:23 am
tndaisy1960

11:53 am
hurshy

11:53 am
Babblephish

I love stuff like that... what groups of animals are...

4:27 pm

4:27 pm

someone w/ tech savvy like Dr. G. could put in blue icon :)
4:27 pm

4:28 pm
hetty
Do you mean ne4? Spot, tried again. my ta4's both turn my nu RED

4:28 pm
circe
grr. sorry...
4:29 pm
TheFiz
funny - i've lived here since i was 18. didn't think anyone ever moved away... Circe, are you having a seizure?
4:29 pm
Cathyar
says something about women does it not??? we ARE the more intelligent sex!!!
4:29 pm
hurshy
and i can prove i lived in RI - del's, coffee milk, pizza strips, buddy cianci, bubbles...i want to go to scarborough...that's where all the guidos go...
4:29 pm
circe
Wasn't there an article not long ago about Dr. God that referred to him as a 'him'...I seem to remember this....but it is Friday....thanks for the concern Fiz..thinkI am okay now.
4:29 pm
hurshy
or the men who babble don't like to chat as much as the women :)
4:30 pm
Cathyar
that would be reasonable hurshy...most men HATE to chat
4:30 pm
hurshy
also doc has made direct claims to masculinity. i suppose if you WANT to believe he's lying you can...
4:30 pm
hetty
It wiorked the third time. Iswear I tried twice in vain. Thanks, Spot
4:30 pm
TheFiz
I think hursh has it right. the guys just aren't as chatty as us ladies. and they may be uncomfortable with the handbags.
4:30 pm
Cathyar
i wonder what the stats are....my i'm in a curious mood today
4:31 pm
libarebel

Why all this androgyny talk? What does gender matter? (say she at 77)
4:32 pm

4:33 pm
Cathyar
well...gotta go...i think i'm getting on hetty's nerves....anyhow...gotta feed my son and bring in the doggie
4:33 pm
libarebel
hmmm... pondering
4:33 pm
TheFiz
you know, i think it's interesting that we have to pick a gender in our profile, and that it's displayed by our name at each post. isn't this supposed to be a place to get away from all that?
4:33 pm
nrkii
see ya cathyar!
4:34 pm
hetty
I'm babbling too, and I like to tease...on to the o's
4:34 pm
