yes MVA - probably hasn't had much 'real' human contact in his first 2.5 years (in racing kennels) so will improve over the next few months
2:36 am

And then, second round of dessert, and hubby-to-be takes a huges portion. I hand him the berry juice. He says, not too much, darling, or I cannot taste the ricepudding anymore.

Gwen: I just reinstalled the whole works, windows, browser, everything.
6:10 am
Book Doctor Gwen
so, i was looking for cute pix of cats to print out on "to: from:" labels for my cousin and the internet has millions of cat pix! Unfair to daleks who don't have so many pix!!
6:10 am
sprite
popup blocker... yes... is on. Let me check.
6:10 am
Book Doctor Gwen
sprite, you're running windows. that is always the firth thing i blame . . .
6:10 am
moonwoof
It truly is. It Must be discrimmination.
6:10 am
sprite
LOLLL Gwen! Yeah, computers are like airplanes... never open windows!
6:11 am
sprite
When I grow up, I want to have a Mac.
6:11 am
dcseain
ROFL so true, sprite!
6:11 am
Book Doctor Gwen
in fact, Babble is the only thing I use IE for, since it doesn't run well on Firefox
6:11 am
dcseain
that's true for me at home, too gwen. only cause Lickety wrote it that way.
6:11 am
FMitch
Nothing wrong with Windows or have I been lucky also use IE fine!
6:12 am
moonwoof
I use firefox... It seems fine to me... Except when the whole site freaks out.
6:12 am
carleekat
same for me fm
6:12 am
Book Doctor Gwen
mitch, how can you say nothing wrong with windows!!! ack!
6:13 am

6:13 am
Book Doctor Gwen
how do i love windows? let me count the ways. ummmmm . . .
6:13 am
dcseain

6:13 am
sprite
darn, I cannot get it to work, I hate this. I want to see that necklace. Etc.
6:14 am
moonwoof
oh well, why didnt you ask?? silly girl.
6:14 am
FMitch
sprite I'll email you a pic if you like
6:14 am
sprite
is it a kind of security setting?
6:14 am
dcseain
IE, google, yahoo, and other toolbars can block pop-ups, unless a site is excepted.
6:14 am
Book Doctor Gwen
sprite, perhaps they will simply email you the jpeg?
6:14 am
sprite
please do, FMitch! Thanks so much!
6:15 am
Book Doctor Gwen
ummmm . . .
6:15 am
sprite
I am gonna put babble into the green zone, see if that helps
6:15 am

6:37 am
FranMag

6:38 am

it is not related to the expert, that is for sure. And not sure about the popup thing. Usually I can open any popup by clicking on it with Cntrl held. Does not work either.
6:38 am
FranMag

6:38 am
carleekat

6:39 am
FMitch
sprite I had the same thing on Friday and it was around the same time babble and sudoku went a bit slow and glitchy, then it was all ok again after about an hour.
6:39 am
dcseain
oh, i see. does the sceen do anything when you do that, or just nothing?
6:39 am
FranMag
bye carlee! have a good day. (hug)
6:40 am
sprite
take care, carlee. Am thinking of you and helping to carry the burden a little. Wind beneath thy wings, darling!
6:40 am
FMitch
Bye carlee
6:40 am
sprite
the blue bar at the top goes light, as if there is another page active, that is all.
6:41 am
sprite
ok, might try later then as well, FMitch, but it has been this way since the reinstall, I am afraid it is not due to a server problem, alas.
6:42 am
FMitch
Ah well in which case resort to the old fashioned way of fing things and kick it *grin*.
6:42 am
dcseain
tools>internet options>security>pop-up blocker shed no light on the matter, i gather.
6:43 am
FranMag
sprite, on my husband's laptop sometimes the shift or control key locks even if i haven't pressed it and that causes strange things to happen.
6:43 am
sprite
nope, dc, I even tried with unabled blocking and they still do not appear.
6:44 am
FranMag

I made peanut butter rice crispies last night for the first time... they turned out really nice and the kids had fun helping!
10:42 am
Uniquity
**sheepishly** That was a quick search! I guess now I'll just do the off and on part, :)
10:42 am
Niamh

10:43 am
caitlyn

10:44 am
Uniquity
Oooh...peanut butter fudge is DELICIOUS
I will be on my third set of gingerbread men
10:44 am
Niamh

10:45 am
Uniquity
Oh, it was quick cuz I found some...a surprising can of beef vegetable something or other. it's not even condensed! I am happy
10:45 am
caitlyn

10:45 am
caitlyn
I notice you are not sharing NiamhLOl
10:45 am
Niamh
tomato soup sounds really nice right now... with toasted cheese!
10:46 am
Niamh
oh... I'm sorry here *passes plate around*
I brought some for my boss and then he informs me he doesn't like peanut butter
10:46 am
Uniquity
Mm...maybe I shall have to melt some cheese into my soup as a compromise
10:46 am
Uniquity
WHAT?! Who doesn't like peanut butter? People who are allergic even like it, I bet!
10:47 am
caitlyn
Mmmmmmmm lovely Niamh thank you
10:47 am
Niamh
he's a huge smart alec... I'm not entirely sure he wasn't playing with me... but he hasn't eaten any yet!
10:48 am
Uniquity
Sounds like my Dad....I make him delicious things and he complains about it, lets it sit...then complains when I eat some...THEN secretly eats it all. Men are complicated, I fear
10:49 am
Uniquity
At least my stepdad openly appreciates delicious things!
10:49 am

10:52 am
Niamh
I wonder if Dr. God purposefuly gave us a small grid today knowing we all should probably be doing other things???
10:53 am
Niamh
I know the grids are randomly generated and all... but he is a Dr. and a God on top of that...
10:54 am
Uniquity
I alwyas wonder...someone came on and said that last XMas, it was a 287 word grid though...
10:54 am
Uniquity
He chooses what ones go on what day though, I believe. At least, i assumed after the day that he ran out of grids
10:59 am
Niamh
maybe the 287 word Christmas grid was a gift to those who needed a distraction that day?
11:00 am
Niamh
maybe the 287 word Christmas grid was a gift to those who needed a distraction that day?

hi all!
4:06 pm
tygerbryght
earlier this year I found a beautiful pair of pewter-colored leather flats with beading on the toes. That's about as fancy as I can get with heels these days
4:06 pm
Uniquity
I al already 5 foot 10...my bf is only 5 foot. We don't need heels, 'cept on him! :) It hurts my feet too much, I am a fan of flats. Cute flats though
4:06 pm
tygerbryght

4:07 pm
Becca Lorum
Uni, at only 5 foot 1, I need all the height I can get!
4:07 pm
snapdragn

4:07 pm
FMitch
Uni I saw earlier today that LoriP did accept Haz's gift, was happy to see that.
4:07 pm
tygerbryght
I used to be a hair under 5'8", but I wore heels proudly
4:07 pm
Uniquity
Well, no heels for pregnant ladies, way too dangerous! :)
4:07 pm
tygerbryght
that was *tall* for a femme, back when I was young
4:08 pm
Uniquity
Yep...Mum and I went pro together, both by sponsorship. We are so happy and appreciative...looking for ways to pass it on
4:08 pm
Nancy Boy
Uni, as long as they're cute, shoes are ALWAYS delightful :D
4:08 pm
tygerbryght
absolutely, Uni! already enough pressure on the low back
4:08 pm
Becca Lorum
I can still wear them at the mo - not waddling yet!
4:08 pm
FMitch
tyger I'm 6' and wear 3" or so heels now
4:08 pm
tygerbryght
well, just don't do it too long, becca :)
4:08 pm
Uniquity
Also a bigger tripping danger, aside from the damage they automatically due to the feet and back
4:08 pm
tygerbryght
really, FM? you don't have the 'look' of a tall woman in your photo
4:09 pm
Becca Lorum
Yess Tyger *looks down at feet*
4:09 pm
Uniquity
Oh Fmitch...you sound so glamorous at 6 feet in your snazy dress with 3 inch heels!
4:09 pm
tygerbryght
Uni's right becca :) just don't do it too long, luv
4:10 pm
Becca Lorum
I only wear them for special occasions - not everyday - can't be bothered with that!
4:10 pm
tygerbryght
I love when a tall woman has the courage to "flaunt it"
4:10 pm
Nancy Boy
Tall enough to be a supermodel, FMitch ;)
I have to go back to visit my relatives in Korea; I can't talk to them, but I always feel tall there :)
4:10 pm
herinfernallady
Tyger i have new pics in my icon
4:10 pm
Uniquity
I love being tall, always have. I need to skinny up a bit more before I can flaunt the beauty of height!
4:10 pm
Becca Lorum
I know, I won't be wearing them much longer anyway, my back is already starting to ache wth flats on
4:11 pm
tygerbryght
has everybody finished the grid? I came in for a bit, thinking someone might need clues
4:11 pm
tygerbryght

4:11 pm

4:12 pm

4:12 pm

4:12 pm
FMitch

4:12 pm
tygerbryght

4:13 pm
tygerbryght

4:13 pm
Uniquity
Fmitch, Lori wants you to know that "there is a conspiracy of kindness (or so she and I feel) and we want to thank you for your part in it" ((She has the boys on Santa Tracker, so I speak for her))
4:13 pm
Becca Lorum
OK tyger - to be honest, I prob won't have occasion to wear them again now anyway
4:13 pm
Nancy Boy
<<matches FMitch's grin>>

4:16 pm
FMitch

Oh. I forgot about my Xmas present for the girls. Drat. brb
4:25 pm
Nancy Boy
Awww, now to me, a metal horse sounds quite threatening.
4:26 pm
Uniquity
I am rather intimidated Nancy...**returns to end of line** :)
4:26 pm
inge
I checked out my sign and am a RAT
4:26 pm
Nancy Boy
<<hugs>>Oh Uni, I'm more of a water rabbit :')
4:27 pm
Becca Lorum
Well it seems I'm an earthy horse
4:27 pm
Nancy Boy
Then Inge, you are imaginative, charming and generous :)
4:27 pm
tygerbryght
okay, herin, I'll read later, K? :)
4:28 pm
inge
imaginative is correct, the other stuff is an off and on trait
4:28 pm
Uniquity
Well, now that we all know so much about each other's horoscopes, can we have the pillowfight and pigtails?
4:28 pm
tygerbryght
LOL, Uni
4:28 pm
Nancy Boy
Oh Uni.
I've been WAITING for someone to ask.
<<fluffs pillow excitedly>>
4:28 pm
herinfernallady
Well not so much as a read but a look
4:28 pm
Uniquity
My earth dragon descriptors don't work for me very well at all. I was surprised.
4:28 pm
Becca Lorum
No uni, or else Santa CLause won't come to our houses
4:28 pm
tygerbryght
inge, rats are very highly respected in Chinese astrology!
4:29 pm
herinfernallady
Nancy i read Metal as mental horse. Think i need more coffee
4:29 pm
inge
Uni, you missed me,, the pillow flew right past me to the neighbors house
4:29 pm
tygerbryght
my sheep/goat/lamb descriptors are actually almost spot-on
4:29 pm
Nancy Boy
LOL, Herin!
Now that -is- intimidating :'D
4:30 pm
Uniquity
**aims interestingly shaped pillow at Nancy boy - fires, then runs through the line of adoring fans**
4:30 pm
moonwoof
Yeah! I'm not the only Rat!
4:30 pm
tygerbryght
or at least in every one I've ever read thus far. haven't gone deeper into that site. takes too long away from the chat
4:30 pm
tygerbryght
keeping it up for later ;)
4:30 pm
inge

Night night, Becca :) Merry Christmas!

Aww, night Becca! Take care of you and yours
4:32 pm
moonwoof
Sadly, none of the chinese sites I've looked at so far are breaking down the elements. Thats Lame.
4:32 pm
Nancy Boy
Tyger, you should've seen the shape of the pillow!
I have never been more OFFENDED in my seventeen years :O
4:32 pm
tygerbryght
in general, Uni, I've found that Western birth signs are often fairly accurate. however, the daily stuff, even if cast personally, usually are crap
4:32 pm
Uniquity
Well...If I had thought that you were going to be so offended, I would have thrown two! :)
4:32 pm
tygerbryght
oh, really? that bad?
4:32 pm
moonwoof
Yeah, right. A guy who's "offended" by a pillow fight LOL
4:33 pm
Nancy Boy
LOL, Uni :DD
4:33 pm
herinfernallady
NIght Becca
4:33 pm
Uniquity
The general descriptors of virgo are very accurate for me...with a few leo traits as well. However, like you said, the day to day is useless...
4:34 pm
Nancy Boy
Moon, I'm only delicate! :')
4:34 pm
tygerbryght
did becca leave? I missed it. if not, later, becca
4:34 pm
moonwoof
Hmm. I'll have to dig around some.. But, for instance, "metal" should be broken down into iron, bronze and silver...
4:34 pm
tygerbryght
absolutely, woof. metal is too generic
4:35 pm
moonwoof
Of COURSE you are, Nancy. I never suggested otherwise. Until just now.
4:35 pm
tygerbryght
gold /= lead!!
4:35 pm
Uniquity
I like that I am earth..although what I read didn't work for me, as I am highly emotional...but I am afraid of change! Lol
4:35 pm
moonwoof
I can't quite recall all of it, tyger, sorry. It's been a long time.
4:35 pm
tygerbryght
Uni, have you ever had your birth chart properly constructed? You may have a bunch of planets in air or water (as I do)
4:36 pm
Uniquity
I don't even know what a birth chart is..sounds interesting though
4:36 pm
herinfernallady
Nancy when we did a role playing game my house had a horse that was 30 hands high and was a Ghoul it was very mentally impressive
4:36 pm
Nancy Boy
LOL, Moon. Now you mention it, I did have a pillow fight when I went camping with some guy friends.
Sadly, they all profess to be straight.
Being out the closet myself, I'm sure I know better ;)
4:36 pm
moonwoof
The most "accurate" of the astrology stuff I found was a natal chart.
4:36 pm
Uniquity
As I said, horoscopes fascinate me as part of the nature/nurture battle, and the brutal honesty of them
4:36 pm
Scarlet
Gosh, I left when the drunken pirate rum-party began, and come back in on a pillow fight! Nancy Boy!! Delighted to see you dear... how are you? Happy holidays to Lady, tyger, moon and all... Uni, so nice to see you and Mom are now officially "Pro"!
4:37 pm
tygerbryght
You hafta know your exact time of birth (and location) and then take an ephemeris to figure out what planets are above the horizon, and what signs they're in

EspritdJean
I have 8 left and losing patience!
5:10 pm
Uniquity
I wish I wasn't already sick so I could enjoy this a bit more...but a bit of wine and rum makes the throat stop hurting so I feel better, surprisingly!
5:10 pm
stidmama
oh no! *shudder* well, stay OFF the ankle, do what the doc says and DON'T push yourself. Do you have someone to fetch and carry for you?
5:11 pm
stidmama
