12:20 am
helenkeller

12:20 am
kristinc
woah...movie star amongst us?
12:20 am
helenkeller
LOL leslie -LOL - yeah i'm on screen for all of 3 or 4 long seconds - ( i should stand taller & sit straighter!)
12:21 am
mich_pdx
he he! Keanu (almost in the puzzle) is looking a little worse for wear... how's he look in real life?
12:21 am
kierlex
oooooooh i adore keanu! who was in a movie with him?
12:21 am
helenkeller
him, i did not see (they all called him kr) but i did get to stand about 5 feet away from sandy for 3 HOURS!!!
12:21 am
LeslieAnn
helen was an extra in the lake house movie
12:22 am
helenkeller
yep, those of us in the biz refer to them as sandy & kr
12:22 am
mich_pdx
she seems like a down to earth person
12:22 am
kierlex
oooh i can't wait to see that. i have a THING for keanu. I call my husband 'not keanu' for jokes... he thinks it's funny
12:22 am
helenkeller
wait - i gotta deflate some of that hot air outta my head so i can see the screen :)
12:22 am
LeslieAnn
that's funny kier
12:22 am
kristinc
LOL helen!
12:23 am
Wyrd
that is kinda funny kier
12:23 am
mich_pdx
oh, Leslie, I just looked at your icon -- very cute!
12:23 am
kierlex
that sounds fun, helen, have you done that kind of thing before (extra in movie)
12:23 am
LeslieAnn
in the biz, you would call him nk for short
12:23 am
LeslieAnn
thanks mich
12:24 am
helenkeller
mich - i said yesterday that between takes, she stood all by herself, looking kinda sad & down, & i felt badly for her - until i remembered how much she was being paid !
12:24 am
jillibus
hi stid
12:24 am
kierlex
hmm, that is too bad. she just seems so normal compared to some of the movie star bimbos
12:24 am
jillibus
keanu is another phantom
12:25 am
stidmama
hi Jill!
12:25 am
stidmama
sorry all....
12:25 am
jillibus
tsk tsk
12:25 am
mich_pdx
I agree, but maybe feeling out of place is part of what makes her normal --- OH STID! so unlike you!
12:25 am
helenkeller
kier - if you like kr - then you're gonna love this movie (it's a love story - it made me cry - twice!!) this was my first, but after that, they also shot the break-up here & i was an extra in that too, but haven't seen that one yet
12:25 am
LeslieAnn
your point being, those are words at the beginning of the dictionary, stid?
12:26 am
kierlex
the break up? ACK! DON'T TELL ME WHAT HAPPENS! =) I hate to read spoilers...
12:26 am
stidmama
my point being, I am a DOOFUS!
12:26 am
kierlex
or do you mean 'the break up' as in another movie? sorry, i panicked =)
12:27 am
Bash
Hmmm...dufehs. Nope, won't allow that one. :)
12:27 am
helenkeller
no mich - none of us extras were allowed to talk to her, so while we could pass the time talking among ourselves, she just had to stay near her 'spot' all by herself - actually, she looked kinda miserable, that's why i felt badly for her (at first)
12:27 am
mich_pdx
nor "dufe"
12:27 am
LeslieAnn
i know, bash, it took everything else stid typed ;)
12:28 am
LeslieAnn
she could have made the rule that no one could talk to her, though, helen
12:28 am
helenkeller
LOL kier - yes - The Break-Up is a totally different movie - oh - i wouldn't tell you what happens cause that is the beauty of movies (the trip they take you on) & i totally respect that!
12:28 am
mich_pdx
helen, have you seen the HBO series Extras? You'd get a kick out of it! lots of "can't mix" issues
12:28 am
kierlex
would be so weird to be a movie star and have people told they weren't allowed to speak to you =)
12:29 am
kristinc
okay...bring out the 7's all you people that find big words! knut...ch...LA...others?
12:29 am
helenkeller
no leslie - all the movies are like that - they have to 'protect' the stars - that's what i heard from the 'professional' extras
12:29 am
kierlex
sometimes i try to get my kids to leave me alone for 19 seconds and not allowed to talk to me but that never lasts!
12:29 am
LeslieAnn

12:33 am

mich - right about that stuff, except the catering - everyone ate the same stuff (it was Great!!! food) the director & crew ate with us (as our 'holding areas' were great big rooms) but the stars must have had their assistants bring them food, cause i never saw any of them

My Sister=in=law is from Indio, said it was horribly hot there! Southern Cali gets very hot.

Indio was surely hotter than we were. I don't envy your sister in law!
5:35 am

ke5 means fibre from a plant in India... mans name + 1st vowel + 4 tile

5:38 am
Queenruejean
I used to live in SJ. My sister just moved from Fremont.

Hi Beast.

5:46 am
Queenruejean
Usually later in the summer. Our normal high for this time of year is 93.
5:47 am
Beast
have there been any clues for the ci workds
5:47 am
JMann
see, now up to Wednesday, it was cold - but then it changed DRASTICALLY (I know, it's relative) - but Friday was really bad
5:48 am
Queenruejean
I think it
5:48 am
Queenruejean
I think it's worse up there because you aren't prepared for it. Plus it can be more humid.
5:49 am
Queenruejean
Beast, CI5/20 refering to a city. Like your ci*** duty or ci*** pride.
5:50 am
JMann
that is true - we're more used to moderate temps - and the closer to the coast you are the more fog you get
5:50 am
Queenruejean
CI5/18, makes me think of non-uniform clothes. Usually pluralized.
5:50 am
mrpresident
the other ci is non uniform clothing
5:50 am
Beast
thanks everyone

mattygroves
OK - Icon changed to Father's Day. Sarah (my daughter) did the card thing, so all is well with the world.
6:02 am

i was going to ask, but then I got the word, so I moved on (I'm fickle I guess)
7:15 am
pam
how about a card with two figures on it?
7:15 am
Dachef
sounds like an americanism! I run a restaurant, and have never called a table for two a two-top! But I will start, sounds like a cool word!
7:15 am
pam
or a tied tennis score?
7:16 am
JMann
eva - still not getting the past tense of stealing - i just keep coming up with stole and that doesn't work - its for the TH 5/18
7:16 am
pam
mayhaps it is an americanism...a widely used one in teh biz here
7:16 am
Dachef
pam - that tennis clue worked for me - nice one!
7:16 am
GraceM

Kallia

7:40 am
mattygroves
The na5 is another dumb word. Scottish for no, then for the seven, a big empty space. For the five, it's part of the empty space, as it were...
7:40 am
GraceM
ah... the na5 ends with a vowel...
7:40 am
Kallia

8:19 am

(((((FAERIE)))))))) Good morning everyone!
8:20 am

8:20 am
Anniebrook
good morning, musicmom!!!
8:20 am
aknitter
duh i found it fish please
8:20 am
musicmom
I'm thinking about attempting this one. Haven't been on all week due to Girl Scout camp
8:21 am
faeriekae
((((((MusicMom))))) Hi I've missed talking with you.
8:21 am
musicmom
I've missed you all too. This coming week should be much calmer. Had a beautiful week at camp
8:21 am
faeriekae
Music I did yesterdays the first one for me all week it was really easy.
8:21 am
JMann
CI 5/20 - a common car made by Honda or relating to a city, as in "it your CI*** duty"
8:22 am
faeriekae
So glad to hear camp went good. I'm sure the girls had a blast
8:22 am
musicmom
I was SOOO tired yesterday. We camped out Friday night and I didn't get to bed until 2 AM. Up at 6:15 to cook breakfast and tear down tents. I slept all afternoon
8:22 am
JMann
AN 5/12 - same beginning as the two above it (AN 4/4 and AN 7/36) + a vowel
8:23 am
musicmom
the girls did have a blast. They earned 8 badges this week
8:24 am
faeriekae
Music - I know you had to have been exhausted. The kids have lots more energy than you and I put together but the tearing down camp had to be a big chore in itself.
8:24 am
JMann
sorry, that clue was for AN 5/10
8:24 am
Charm
teddie isn't a word? Tell that to Victoria's Secret!
8:24 am
musicmom
Faerie - it was a huge chore to tear down - especially because several leaders did not stay to help. It was two other leaders, myself and Sarah that tore down.
8:25 am
JMann
AN 5/12 is the past tense of the one above it (AN 4/4 - a different one than I listed below) - basically, you would have done this in a poker game
8:25 am
musicmom
Sarah earned all 25 of her Program Assist. volunteer hours this week.
8:25 am
Anniebrook
thank you, JMann, pass the fish!
8:25 am
JMann
Basically, between the last two clues for AN, those are the 5 AN's
8:26 am
JMann
annie - it's okay, i didn't get it for a while
8:26 am
faeriekae
Music - You must be very proud of Hannah and Sarah they are such good kids you and Greg have done a fantastic job as parents that is so evident. You deserve a badge also LOL
8:26 am
Anniebrook
got them all, JMann. thanks!!! be back later, breakfast making calls.
8:27 am
musicmom
Thanks. I *am* very proud of them. I did get three patches this week:-))

8:29 am
musicmom
No thanks JMann - I'm just getting started
8:29 am
faeriekae
I love snapdragons I didn't put any out this year and wished I had but my sweetpeas have gone crazy. They are just beautiful.
8:30 am
JMann
good luck musicmom, it's not that bad of a grid today
8:30 am
musicmom
Someone had told me I would have trouble with snapdragons but my grandpa always had them when I was a child so I decided to try. They are doing good.
8:30 am
musicmom
Thanks Jmann
8:30 am
faeriekae
did you say something ate yor marigolds?? I also put them out to keep insects and critters away. LOL
8:31 am
musicmom
That's what I thought you were supposed to do Faerie. But yep, something ate them down to the ground. My very knowledgable next door neighbor thinks it might have been rabbits

musicmom
We did the Adena-Alex day camp for Black Diamond. Ran Monday - Friday with Junior camp out on Friday night
8:45 am
musicmom
Our juniors earned 8 badges and completed Linking Girls to the Land. Sarah earned all her PA hours.
8:45 am
musicmom
Pow-Wow sounds like fun
8:45 am
Jera
Sounds like fun... did it rain on you guys? We had rain Wednesday & Thursday morning
8:45 am
Jera
Linking to the Land is excellent...
8:46 am
musicmom
No we had absolutely perfect weather all week. No rain, no humdity, comfortable temps
8:46 am
herinfernallady
thanks for the web link sorry to interupt
8:46 am

It is very excellent
8:46 am

No problem her. Jump in any time

Asking questions is not interrupting, herinfernallady... it's joining the chat! Welcome, btw... you are new to me!
8:47 am
herinfernallady

Hi, Tiny. Bye all. Enjoy the babbling....
8:48 am
Bowdy
woah!!! Lickety's mega update - it's even better now!!! :D
8:48 am
Jera
I was very embarrassed, MM... the leader getting heatstroke... I bit off more than I could chew with the terrible heat...
8:48 am
musicmom
bye charm
8:49 am
Tiny
I am good sitting in front of wood fire cold here in Aus
8:49 am
musicmom
Oh no Jera. You have to be very careful with that.
8:49 am
musicmom
One of our First Aid situation cards was about the leader getting hurt. Good for the girls to think about
8:50 am
musicmom
I was concerned about one of the other leaders I was working with because she tended not to eat all day.
8:50 am
Jera
Oh yes... using what you learn to save your leader! Such POWER!
8:51 am
worder1
sorry didn't mean to do that
8:51 am
musicmom
LOL our situation was that the leader fell into the lake and bumped her head. The girls had some good ideas
8:51 am
Jera
I think I will either stick to the Fall and indoor ones from now on. Seriously considering cancelling the family trip to the Highland Games next month. I felt really, really bad.
8:52 am
Jera
Yikes, falling into the lake wasn't bad enough? LOL
8:52 am
musicmom
Jera - that may be a good idea to cancel- although I know how hard it is to do that. I decided not to take my girls to Junior Jam this year because I don't think they have enough outdoor experience and we need to get it closer to home
8:52 am
Jera
We're working on a Girl Scout board game that has questions to advance like that
8:52 am
musicmom
We really wanted to challenge them.
8:53 am
musicmom
That sounds great Jera.
8:53 am
Jera
I was lucky yesterday to ahve good adult help so the Girls could go ahead of me & not miss the Grand Entrance... that was truly awesome.
8:54 am
Jera
A friend of mine is a dancer & he was really great about talking with the Girls & answering questions.. awesome costume & he explained the meanings of all the different stuff.
8:54 am
musicmom
It is always comforting to know you have enough adult help. Very cool about the Grand Entrance. Are you okay today?
8:55 am
musicmom
Wow - I wish I could have been there.
8:55 am
Jera
Still a bit dizzy & zero appetite. Just drinking & pee-ing, LOL
8:55 am
musicmom
We did have an astronomer come on Friday night and bring a very big telescope. I was able to see Jupiter and four of its moons. I missed Saturn because I was overseeing fire building.
8:55 am
musicmom
Take care of yourself and keep the fluids going in!
8:55 am
herinfernallady
Tiny sitting here on the ducted heated. Watching motor bike racing and drinking tea before bed
8:56 am
Jera
Somebody complained about the chanting being boring... I asked her if she knew what that meant... which started a whole discussion that lasted most of the trip home!
8:56 am
musicmom
You guys are cracking me up sitting in front of fires and on heaters. It is going to be very warm here today and I have the air conditioner on.
8:56 am
Anniebrook
Musicmom, planet watching! awesome!
8:56 am
musicmom
Don't you love those Serendipitous discussions!
8:57 am
Jera
Oh, I love astronomy... I hate I know nothing about actually doing it on my own. My sense of direction goes out the window when I look up for somereason. But we never miss a meteor shower. The planetarium trip is one of the highlights of the year!
8:57 am
musicmom
It really was Annie. One of those times I wished I didn't have to be the responsible adult and could have stayed and participated more. But, alas, you must have a fire to make s'mores.
8:57 am
herinfernallady
Not bloody funny. Its bloody cold. Its about 5 to 10 degrees celesus here
8:57 am
musicmom
You need a quilt her
8:57 am
herinfernallady
I love going out bush and seeing the stars properly.
8:58 am
musicmom
Jera - we are going to take two cadette troops camping in August and include a meteor shower star gazing. I'm really looking forward to it because I will be able to watch too
8:58 am
herinfernallady
no going to bed soon
8:59 am
herinfernallady
um i do live in the burbs but the city lights stop decent star gazing
9:00 am
musicmom
The girls finished the Night Sky badge Friday. I had fun listening to them chat. They were blown away that they witnessed first hand that Saturn really does have rings
9:00 am
herinfernallady
Thats pretty cool how many kids to u 2 have
9:00 am
musicmom
Her - I grew up in the city. I married a country boy. The first time I was ever at his parents at night I was blown away by the number of stars in the sky
9:01 am
musicmom
I have two daughters --12 and 6 years old. I have 6 12 year olds in my Girl Scout troop
9:02 am
Jera
Very cool... we have a campout planned during peak time. Sure beats the winter ones
9:02 am
musicmom
No doubt!
9:02 am
herinfernallady
I love it. In summer we drag our butts outside and grab the outdoor mats and lay outside and sleep. Arr so you have girls and look after 6 12years at camp. That means zero sleep and lots of giggling?
9:02 am
Jera
I have a 10 year old daughter & a 4 year old sone who thinks he's a Girl Scout too... we have a brothers' auxiliary, LOL
9:03 am
herinfernallady
brrr winter. Jera do you have boyscouts
9:03 am
musicmom
That is exactly what it means, Her. I didn't babble yesterday because I had to come home to sleep after camping Friday night.
9:03 am
Jera
Stargazing at the beach is pretty awesome... I remember that as a child
9:03 am
herinfernallady
giggle, thanks nearly snorted tea out my nose for snickering
9:04 am
musicmom
I had 32 girls Friday night ages 8-12. I had 6 PAs ages 12 - 17. It was a lot of fun
9:04 am
Jera
Not yet, herinfernallady... I have another year before we do that. Or he might do Spiral Scouts, I have some issues with the BS organization
9:05 am
musicmom
Hey Jera - I now have a Brownie. Hannah bridged last week. She earned a bunch of try-its this week at camp and I don't even have her vest yet.
9:05 am
herinfernallady
i am lucky. I live 30min from the city about 1hr to the beach and about 2hours to the hills. this is all public transport time. I think if i had a car i would be about 1hr hour from the sea, the hills and the city
9:05 am
musicmom
I wish we had public transport.
9:05 am
Jera
Oh wow, Bridging is soooo special... Sprite sang a song for the Bridging Ceremony last week for her old troop back home... everybody was bawling...
9:06 am
herinfernallady
Oh my word 32 girls all pre teen is way too much for me. Even when i waz 12 i didn't like 12yrolds
9:06 am
musicmom

Do you have children her?
9:09 am
herinfernallady
Nope. I am 28 and live on my own. I used to look after 13 under 5s. Never and i mean NEVER give chocolate crackles unless u want a hyper fit
9:09 am
musicmom
LOL her! NO doubt. My job is to teach newborns - 7 year olds so I know what you mean.

13 under 5 is a handful!
9:10 am
herinfernallady
My b/f and i don't want kids. Never have. I think we both like animals . I stopped looking after kids after i got my qualifications in childcare cause the rules were stupid
9:11 am
musicmom
It's good to know what you want. Child rearing is not for everyone. Animals can be as challenging. Go for it!
9:11 am
musicmom
Well ladies, I would love to stay and chat but it is Father's day and time for me to prepare the brunch. I'll be back later to finish. It feels good to be babbling again.

my dad died three years ago, the day after father's day. he was a truly amazing man, and held on till we could all be together (here at my house...my kids came in from Boston). so father's day is always bittersweet for me. But I don't mean to sound maudlin, honestly
6:49 pm

Thanks! This is so addictive, but with homeschooling 3 kids and just generally living life, I can't devote the time to it that I'd like to. But my kids and husband like to sit next to me and help - annoying sometimes, but mostly enjoyable :-)

8:57 pm
hetty
di6/30 is pl. of di5/ 18
8:57 pm
