herin -- have a great time. It's just that Christmas is the name of this particular holiday, whether you celebrate it or not, just as Diwali is the name of the Hindu holiday.

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

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

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

4:06 pm

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

4:08 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

4:08 pm

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

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))

Isn't anyone else a dragon? **feels left out**
4:20 pm

Ah, the element is derived from what season you're born in the year of what animal. I had a web page link 4Ever ago... I'll look for it.
4:20 pm
LoriP

There were actual tears. Conspiracy of kindness, made my whole year.

Then Inge, you are imaginative, charming and generous :)
4:27 pm
tygerbryght

okay, herin, I'll read later, K? :)
4:28 pm

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

**aims interestingly shaped pillow at Nancy boy - fires, then runs through the line of adoring fans**

Yeah! I'm not the only Rat!
4:30 pm

4:32 pm

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"!

5:49 pm
arleneehm

i'm just trying to keep track of my focus - have new contacts and am also using reading glasses....... i've joined the ranks of the bifocal users.....
5:49 pm
Scarlet

They are difficult to get accustomed to, arlen..
5:50 pm
arleneehm

hints - please onthe bifocals ----
5:52 pm
Scarlet

I had a bit of difficulty with sidewalks, and wayyyy overstepping the curbs at first... then I learned how to focus my eyes with the new double vision thing...
5:52 pm
arleneehm

I'm using the moving my head and and shifting the competer screen but I'm not sure what else to do... I've broken three cups so far
5:53 pm
arleneehm

that ounds like more fun - once I get teh glasses... oh well...... that's life
5:53 pm
Scarlet

LOL... at least you haven't broken a bone... you will find your own way... what works for my husband does not work for me... so, little by little, I learned, and then discovered I could not stand them...
5:54 pm
arleneehm

i haven't left the house with them yet..... absolutely terrified of what'll happe when I'm driving
5:54 pm
Scarlet

So now I use glasses for reading, crocheting and using the computer, and my distance vision has improved fivefold... the eye doctor told me that it happens frequently... one of the few good things about aging... LOL
5:55 pm
Scarlet

You will come to be comfortable with them, arlen... how long are you wearing them now?
5:55 pm
arleneehm

about 4 hours a day.....
5:56 pm
Scarlet

WEre you advised to lengthen the wearing times each day?
5:56 pm
arleneehm

yep..by an hour each day -yesterday was three.
5:56 pm
Scarlet

Maybe the cup mortality rate will wind down too... LOL
5:58 pm
arleneehm

i hope so..... it's not so much them breaking - i ahve lots...but the finding all the pieces...... the contacts fix the long distance and reading glasses fix the short-b but there's still the middle ground....
5:59 pm
Scarlet

My daughter has serious vision problems, and she is seeing so much better with her contacts... her glasses have a prisim to enable her sight to be stronger...
5:59 pm
BerniceQ

6:01 pm
Scarlet

I am sort of universal in my love of mankind, and whatever faith system anyone embraces... and did not want to ignore nor specify any one group...
6:02 pm
arleneehm

scarlet -I think it's great.
6:02 pm
BerniceQ

and supposedly, each faith promotes peace, though some people so horrible things under the flags of their religions. nice to be reminded of the real purpose of these faiths
6:03 pm
Scarlet

Okay, Bernice... I put "Peace on Earth" in the Google image search engine, so you will find it there... Thank you, arlen!! Hope you find it, Bernice!
6:03 pm
BerniceQ

6:12 pm
arleneehm

scarlet - not getting it - to me that usually sounds like 'BOONG'
6:13 pm

For Poles, Christmas Eve is a time of family gathering and reconciliation. It's also a night of magic: Animals are said to talk in a human voice and people have the power to tell the future. The belief was born with our ancestors who claimed that Dec. 24 was a day to mark the beginning of a new era.
