4:59 am

westford

they just love to bring gifts lol

4:59 am

westford

we keep telling our calico she doesn't have to pay rent

4:59 am

KatieMcG

seriously three of them and they couldn't catch it!

5:00 am

westford

they're keeping it to play with later

5:00 am

KatieMcG

lol westford maybe we should try letting ours know that

5:00 am

westford

it won't work katie lol

5:01 am

westford

we have 3 cats too old lady Jenny just lays around and keeps the younger two in line KC is a night wanderer and Ruby the calico is our huntress

5:03 am

westford

herin are you still here?

5:03 am

KatieMcG

Rhubarb (Ruby) is the cutest in our house but is the most devious she is a mainly black tortie, Crumble is a calico, is a bit thick and a real mummy's girl, Custard (Casty) is more standoffish but is getting better and secretly rules the roost.

5:04 am

westford

sounds like our zoo lol

5:04 am

herinfernallady

damn it i dropped off

5:05 am

herinfernallady

5:05 am

westford

5:05 am

herinfernallady

5:06 am

westford

5:06 am

herinfernallady

5:07 am

westford

5:07 am

KatieMcG

I started playing internet bingo lol

5:07 am

westford

but good for you!

5:07 am

westford

I tried that but it's sooo slow

5:08 am

westford

where did you play?

5:08 am

KatieMcG

we have site called galabingo, I quite like it but put a strict limit on how much I spend a week

5:08 am

KatieMcG

There are some people on there that spend 100s of pounds a week on it

5:09 am

westford

the one I tried on pogo was free

5:09 am

westford

I could clean the kitchen while waiting for the numbers to be called

5:10 am

KatieMcG

you pay for this one and win money, but some people have no idea of being sensible. The games take about 1 1/2 mins with a 1/2

5:10 am

KatieMcG

sorry with a 2 min break between them

5:10 am

westford

we have relatives who go to Foxwoods and spend that much and when they win they've already spent it all

5:48 am

Trifioso

5:49 am

westford

herin agree it is the most beautiful but enough of it was on the talent show to let everyone know she can sing

5:51 am

westford

Trifioso

5:55 am

westford

5:55 am

Trifioso

Il y avait un temps où les hommes étaient aimables
Quand leurs voix étaient douces
Et leur invitation de mots
Il y avait un temps où l'amour était sans visibilité
Et le monde était une chanson
Et la chanson était passionnante
Il y avait un temps
Alors il tout est allé mal

6:05 am

westford

and the worm in your ear is a song you can't get out of your head

6:05 am

Trifioso

6:08 am

herinfernallady

My parents bought me the complete box set of Les Mis and Miss Saigon. Mum and I went to the concert for my 18th

6:09 am

westford

oh how very nice herin what a gift!!

6:10 am

Trifioso

they landed in naples! their itinerary is not for the faint of heart, believe me! they are going to six or seven cities in 10 days. whew!

6:10 am

westford

Italy is magical

6:10 am

herinfernallady

I did something special for my 18th and 30ths

6:11 am

westford

6:12 am

herinfernallady

On my actual day I went to High Tea then to the Edge Experience at Eureka tower then Nobu at crown casino

6:12 am

oodleberry

oh I hate that... i like to take my time and I would go on my own and pay more than that stuff... you don't have enough time to enjoy anything... and look in the ceiling you will see leonardo da vinci's painting... you can stay here for hours and enjoys his workmanship OK TIME TO GO WE HAVE LOTS OF THINGS TO SEE...and if you don't get on the bus they leave you behind

6:13 am

westford

very nice

6:13 am

westford

6:14 am

westford

that's a trip..you should someday

6:15 am

oodleberry

however I went on a trip when I was in france to the Chateaux de la Loire and that was all I needed ... not at all fascinated with kings' riches or the like... actually it made me sick

6:15 am

westford

I'll come too and then we can go back to Australia in herin's suitcase

6:15 am

westford

really oodle? I love seeing how the other half lived

6:16 am

westford

or other 1 percent I should say

6:16 am

Trifioso

herin, I just know it would be amazing if we actually met someday. we would be the best of friends, I just know it. the funniest thing will be to hear you speak, and for you to hear me. Of course, in the chog, everyone sounds like whatever YOU sound like, because you read in your head with your accent. I am very Bostonian, prepare yourselves!

6:16 am

oodleberry

if you like big cities and pushing and shoving and madness... my mother and I were in NYC right after 911 and I will never go back... my mother liked it but I didn't... well she grew up there

6:17 am

westford

after 911 was not the very best time oodle so much sadness

6:17 am

herinfernallady

One day. I have actually put labels on my folders ot the places I want to go

6:17 am

oodleberry

we had a flight due to depart the 13th, we never went and lost half our air fair

6:17 am

herinfernallady

Have always loved NY

6:18 am

Eva

I grew up there too and left as soon as I could. So many people love it, but it was always overwhelming to me. I was there last week visiting family and friends, and there is no end of things to do, see and eat, but I fiind it simply too much. Depends on your stimulus tolerance.

6:18 am

herinfernallady

That was a bit rude of the company Oodle

6:18 am

westford

wouldn't it be great if we could all get 'beamed' to the places we want to see

6:19 am

Trifioso

I agree, eva. I am good for about 4 days, and then I need to go back to my country mouse life

6:19 am

Eva

I couldn't figure out why he didn't jump into bed this morning when I woke up and finally realized that last night when I closed to door to the entry hall he had snuck out. So he as locked out there all night. Luckily it wasn't too frigid - probably in the high 30's. He was very glad to see me and seems none the worse for it.

6:27 am

westford

she brings tears to my eyes too oodle

6:27 am

herinfernallady

Well he was stupid kitty wasn't he ? Mine got her head closed in the door today trying to sneak in whilst i was closing the bedroom door whilst himself was sleeping

6:28 am

Eva

it is quite amazing how they throw on invisibility cloaks! I was only out there for 10 seconds and made sure he hadn't followed me out!

6:28 am

Eva

How's her head?

6:28 am

westford

I discovered one of our cats wasn't around at 3 a.m. she was very happy to be let in too

6:29 am

Eva

Luckily he was just stuck in the unheated entry hall. we are very, very careful that he never gets outside, as he would be eaten in no time flat.

6:29 am

herinfernallady

fine just fine it was on her neck. I noticed it before i closed her

6:29 am

oodleberry

I suppose the teachers that wrote that way had a few stiff drinks in them before they began "evaluating" the students.

10:33 am

Atalante

I once even got an A for a class I didn't take!

10:34 am

Judi

It was the 60's & 70's - so they could have been good and smoked up as well.

Proud to say I monkeyed the si7. Means a gravelly, igneous rock/mineral. Suuuure.

10:39 am

Atalante

it does it does!

10:39 am

Atalante

named after the town in Italy I *think*

10:40 am

Judi

Geesh. I'm trying to find a decent internet radio station. I just tried something labelled "Modern Adult Alternative". It turned out to be primal satanic screaming. Arrrgh.

10:40 am

redturtlehead

OK so I have paied the painful taxes. my goodness, it was a bad shock.

10:40 am

Atalante

what sort of music do you like?

10:40 am

Atalante

poor red :(

10:41 am

Judi

Sympathies, Red.

10:41 am

Atalante

radio rivendell is a great great station if you like soundtracks and enya and *stuff* like that

10:41 am

rururocks

what's wrong with Primal Satanic Screaming?

10:41 am

Judi

I like all sorts of music, Ata. Primal Satanic Screaming is not on my list though.

10:42 am

Judi

I like everything from Lyle Lovett to Cold Play, etc. etc.

10:42 am

Atalante

check out radio rivendell then. it's the only one I ever bother to listen to, though whether that's a recommendation or not, I'm not sure!

10:42 am

Judi

I have nothing against primal screaming. It's just the satanic part that disturbs me.

10:43 am

Atalante

I was horrified to learn that prisoners are allowed to practice satanic rites in american prisons

10:43 am

redturtlehead

OK cleaning and preparing for phantom moving men to arrive, I scarcely believe they will ever show up.

10:44 am

rururocks

maybe they will include bernie madoff

10:44 am

Atalante

"religious freedom" must be upheld

10:44 am

redturtlehead

I am more horrifeid that prisoners have access to the gym and television.....andI pay for that.

10:44 am

phaeton

I was horrified to hear they could get sex changes on the taxpayers money!

10:44 am

Atalante

I was watching this prog about a prison in Idaho (I think) - they have a satanic chapel and all sorts of things!

10:45 am

phaeton

Can't take away their rights to practice freedom of religion

10:45 am

Judi

I would think life in prison would be hellish enough. To worship the hellishness seems paradoxical. Go figure.

10:45 am

Atalante

oh no. never could we impinge prisoners rights

10:47 am

phaeton

hah! found an 8

10:48 am

Atalante

apparently satanism is a life-affirming happy religion. nothing like we perceive it to be. satanists aren't allowed to kill fluffy animals, you know

10:48 am

rururocks

10:53 am

Judi

Has anyone ever had that particular liquer? I know it's made from wormwood (doesn't that make it SO appealing?). It looks like Nyquil. Does it taste like it too?

10:53 am

Atalante

10:53 am

Uniquity

Tastes like black liquorice.

10:53 am

rururocks

10:53 am

Atalante

I wouldn't drink it if you paid me, that's how bad it tastes!

10:53 am

10:53 am

Uniquity

Don't like it, even with the sugar.

10:53 am

10:54 am

rururocks

10:54 am

Uniquity

It's not always poisonous. They made newer versions that are 'safe' and legal. That's why I can buy it.

10:54 am

phaeton

10:55 am

Atalante

Evening, Katie . . .

12:31 pm

joshuavorbis

i'm not even halfway yet!

12:31 pm

mama2maddie

hi west :-)

12:31 pm

westford

hi jimmel and josh

12:31 pm

J. C.

Well go pro then, Magyk - doesn't cost much and it's only a one-time fee, so well worth it! ;)

12:31 pm

jimmel

Hi west and everyone!

12:32 pm

westford

I'm going to ask for a refund JC if this grid doesn't get any better lol

12:32 pm

Magyk

yes I'm checking it out now. I want to upgrade but I don't have a credit card. Refuse to have one until I graduate

12:32 pm

J. C.

They can still see the list, westford - you can without even being logged in.

12:32 pm

jimmel

seems this grid is dulling the senses...matches the weather outside!

12:32 pm

J. C.

Oh, I see Magyk - well, you can use PayPal, or get a family member or friend who has a credit card or PayPal to cover it, and pay them back?

12:33 pm

J. C.

HAHAHA, westford . . .

12:33 pm

J. C.

If the grids were all easy though, we wouldn't be learning any new and interesting words! ;)

12:33 pm

Magyk

I can do that! I play everyday so it would be worth it. :)

12:33 pm

BabbleRabble

this is a vroom vroom vroom grid

12:34 pm

westford

that's true I'll be using a lot of these in my everyday conversations

12:34 pm

westford

oh bab for you maybe

12:34 pm

jimmel

Good suggestions, J.C....or Magyk can do as we did for over a year....go to Lickety and virtually write down every 2-letter word and compare it against our list....ugh (and not too efficient!!!)

12:34 pm

jimmel

Does that mean we should start our engines, BR?

12:35 pm

J. C.

Hmmm . . . if Magyk didn't have anything else to do all day, perhaps? :P

12:35 pm

jimmel

yes...hours and hours and hours of eye strain!

12:35 pm

BabbleRabble

start your engine, put it on cruise and motor on home

12:35 pm

Magyk

I'm a substitute teacher and nanny while going to get my masters. So I keep plenty busy!

12:36 pm

jimmel

Hmmm...did that yesterday, in fact...from OH to TN...now on to the grid....where's that key????

12:36 pm

J. C.

No, westford - but I do remember the words I learn here, and use them in Literati and Word Racer - two word games I play with friends now and then, on Yahoo! Games . . .

12:37 pm

westford

JC you are so much younger and can retain words I on the other hand remember very little

12:37 pm

Dorens

snuck back in for my last three words and done. would offer clues, but you have babblerabble...

12:37 pm

westford

very nice dorens we would dearly appreciate your clues too

12:39 pm

westford

aww the PPAC is having Come to Annie in your jammies night

12:39 pm

BabbleRabble

12:40 pm

J. C.

Hello, jacq . . .

12:41 pm

westford

you're kidding!! I'm not really senile just don't like the big (I'll never use them in any context ) words

12:41 pm

westford

hello jacq

12:41 pm

jacq

heya Dorens, BR and JC

12:41 pm

KatieMcG

Hi jacq

12:41 pm

jacq

heya westford

12:42 pm

J. C.

Well then, westford - you should play some Literati and Word Racer on Yahoo, where you would use them! ;)

12:42 pm

westford

the big 5 0 JC any big plans?

12:43 pm

redturtlehead

Afternoon again, I am so irritated at this moving company. they are supposed to be delivering today but no one will answer any phones and its aleardy 1:30.

12:43 pm

westford

I have been contemplating that but don't you have to be invited?

12:43 pm

J. C.

Just a party with family and friends, westford . . .

12:43 pm

J. C.

I'm not sure what they all have planned for me?! :P

12:43 pm

BabbleRabble

I used big words when talking to my favorite wall before it ran off with the ceiling

12:43 pm

westford

that sounds like a nice way to celebrate JC

12:44 pm

westford

lol bab

12:44 pm

Dorens

did they promise you a time, red?

12:44 pm

J. C.

Well, no westford - you can register a Yahoo account, then just go into the games and either create or join a table and play - but it's more fun to meet on there with friends to play, of course.

12:44 pm

westford

red are you sure they didn't say Monday?

12:44 pm

J. C.

A group of us like to get together and play, from time to time . . . e-mail if you're interested?

12:45 pm

redturtlehead

100% sure they did not say Monday, butif it is to be monday then they need to tell me, so I can leave everything with the apartment complex instead.

12:45 pm

redturtlehead

I think I will just continue to harass the driver, as he should answer his phone eventually.

12:45 pm

westford

that would be nice I hate going in and standing around waiting for a table..or having people refuse to play with me

12:46 pm

westford

red it's just that moving companies don't usually work on Sunday around here..Florida must be different

12:46 pm

Dorens

i haven't moved in a while, but i seem to remember them giving a window... say, 2:00 - 5:00 when I could expect them. florida must be different though

12:46 pm

westford

do you think they got lost?

12:47 pm

redturtlehead

Well, I explained to them that either they deliver on Sun, or they could deal with the dog on Monday alone,they chose Sunday. I think the guy got annoyed becauseI told the company he was rude, which he was.

12:47 pm

westford

someone is sitting on the beach

12:47 pm

redturtlehead

I was expecting a windopw of time too, on the front end they were very nice. I think someone is sitting on cocoa beach....theres an idea.

12:47 pm

BabbleRabble

I think I would call the company's headquarters and tell them their driver continues to be rude. They need to help you.

12:48 pm

redturtlehead

the companys headquarters is not open, I tried it.

12:48 pm

westford

it must really get your goat to have to deal with them on top of everything else that moving does to one

12:48 pm

BabbleRabble

do you have a contract with contact numbers

12:49 pm

westford

do you like your new place?

12:49 pm

BabbleRabble

or a website

12:50 pm

redturtlehead

Yes the website gives me the same phone numbers. I will go look at the contract, but I amjust starting to feel so tired.

12:50 pm

Dorens

so now in addition to being rude, he is now also being difficult. wonder if he wants to keep his job?

12:50 pm

redturtlehead

All I want is to give them thier money and to give me my furniture.

12:50 pm

redturtlehead

I will go check the contract, perhaps that will help me.

12:51 pm

Dorens

someday soon this will be in the past

12:51 pm

J. C.

Yes, westford - that can be a pain, and some people aren't very friendly, either. Well, e-mail if you're interested and when one or more of the Literati and Word Racer players I know is going to be online, we can possibly arrange something . . .

12:51 pm

jacq

literati is a great game

12:52 pm

jacq

sorry was reading the chog and hoping red gets everything sorted out

12:52 pm

westford

that would be nice JC I'll get clobbered I think..is it similar to scrabble?

12:52 pm

J. C.

Yes it is, jacq! :) Well, it's Scrabble really, by another name! ;)

12:52 pm

jacq

12:52 pm

westford

me too jacq moving is stressful enough as it is without having to deal with the likes of him

12:53 pm

Takuma Sato

I've got it down to 200 left, but things have really slowed down for me

12:53 pm

J. C.

Literati is, westford - Word Racer is similar to this, because you get a series of grids, where you have to enter all the words you can see in each one, as quickly as possible - you have about two minutes per grid.

12:53 pm

westford

lol taku

12:53 pm

jacq

lol Takuma

12:53 pm

westford

is a mouse involved in either JC?

12:54 pm

jacq

for some reason i'm finding it hard to focus

12:54 pm

jacq

you can type west

12:54 pm

westford

good because my mouse won't work with my new laptop

12:54 pm

periwinkle

Takuma, what is your icon?

12:55 pm

J. C.

Yes, westford - you have to click on the tiles to drag them into place, in Literati - and you can click the letters in Word Racer too, although I just type them in and tap 'Enter' with my pinky finger - much faster. You still have to click with your mouse in the slot where you enter the words though, to ensure your cursor is there, before entering them . . .

12:55 pm

westford

mayhaps I'll come and watch

12:55 pm

J. C.

Oh . . . well, I'm not sure how you would play Literati without a mouse? You still need to click in the slot in which you type the words in, in Word Racer.

12:56 pm

J. C.

I have a mouse, with my laptop . . .

12:56 pm

westford

sounds cutthroat

12:56 pm

J. C.

You could do, yes - if we can co-ordinate it? :)

12:56 pm

Magyk

I'm a pro now!!

12:56 pm

westford

I have a mouse but got a new laptop and old mouse needs a new program I think

12:56 pm

jacq

well done Magyk and hello

12:56 pm

J. C.

Cutthroat? Goodness, no - it's only a game and we don't usually playl rated games, as they're just for fun! :)

12:56 pm

redturtlehead

He is much happier and seems to be even growing somehair back despite all the stress recently with the move.

3:37 pm

rururocks

Yeah... that is great red.. it will help her a lot. If you supplement with bendryl on bad days, you should be more trouble free.

3:38 pm

rururocks

a little prednizone will stimulate the hair growth back

3:38 pm

rururocks

unless he is allergic to pred

3:38 pm

redturtlehead

It took me long enough, but weare on the right road, so much energy, I dont think prednisone would be a good idea right now...

3:38 pm

probably right ... stay the course you are on

4:18 pm

stidmama

hello jes, goes slowly, I am sitting here trying to make up for the nearly three days' lost study time. migraines sux.

4:18 pm

jesdraggon

oi. sorry to hear that, stid. hope your head's better now!

4:18 pm

Magyk

does anyone have a clue for ni7 please?

4:19 pm

stidmama

sorry magyk, only down to 140 now.

4:19 pm

welki

same as ni8 .. lose the last vowel

4:19 pm

stidmama

yes, better now, but stressed by being behind again. (and just saw the envelope to you in the car this morning, it didn't get mailed yet -- *sigh*)

4:19 pm

Magyk

was hoping the 7 would lead me to the 8, Welki

4:19 pm

you haven't been feeling well for awhile stid...this weather can't help.

thanks welki!

4:20 pm

jesdraggon

you'll catch up, stid :)

4:20 pm

Uniquity

Ah, but Stid - What would learning be without a little stress and pressure?

4:21 pm

stidmama

sure I will jess, but had hoped to use this weekend to work on my other project (for the 6th graders) -- will have to squeeze it in next week instead.

4:21 pm

stidmama

rofl Uni -- it would be... um, FUN!

4:22 pm

Uniquity

It can be fun anyway...just with head pain. I almost developed a fullmigraine last night as my stress released after my third exam. I have two more on Thursday and then done til September. Can't wait!

4:23 pm

stidmama

oh gee, Uni... I am so sorry. At least the class that is important for me won't have an exam, just a major project.

4:24 pm

stidmama

finally NBT

4:24 pm

jesdraggon

good news stid; got rascal adopted out to a vet tech at WSU :)

4:24 pm

stidmama

YES!!! oh, happy happy for rascal!

4:25 pm

jesdraggon

me too. about couldn't ask for a better place

4:25 pm

Uniquity

Jes - I was looking through your profile and saw about Rascal. Are you a professional fosterer? The $1500 for surgery blew my mind. I spend 150 on my Emma's neutering and complained about that! What you do is amazing.

4:26 pm

jesdraggon

professional would imply that i get paid for it...

4:26 pm

stidmama

LOL (jess is a vet)

4:27 pm

jesdraggon

mostly i pay out.

4:27 pm

stidmama

down to 118... need to start the week's paper. And work on the daily journaling. And start on the paper for the term project.

4:27 pm

jesdraggon

but i decided i pay out enough to be a bother, so i got myself registered as a non-profit, and now I can at least write it off of my taxes.

4:28 pm

stidmama

well, let's put it to a vote: where shall I "visit" next? Puerto Rico has been a good flag for a few weeks...

4:28 pm

jesdraggon

St. Lucia

4:28 pm

Uniquity

If you're a vet, could you not do the surgery yourself? I don't know how this works, have never fostered anything. I just have my babies.

4:29 pm

jesdraggon

not this one--he's too small and the bones too tiny; i don't have the expertise or implants needed to do it without breaking things worse. most of my fosters I do most of the work on

4:29 pm

jesdraggon

but I still have to pay the clinic for everything I use. and this one was actually a considerable discount from what it would have been if i wasn't a vet

4:30 pm

jesdraggon

the surgeon gave me a 15% "professional courtesy" discount, and I bought all the drugs and did the pre-surg rads at the clinic where I work; for someone else it probably would have been about $2000

4:30 pm

Uniquity

Are the fosters often the rescued sort? I read that Rascal was kicked..(which is horrifying). I just don't understand the huan capability for animal abuse/neglect/replacement. Emma is certainly not replacable.

4:31 pm

Uniquity

*human. And wow. You're pretty phenomenal, jes.

4:31 pm

jesdraggon

All of them are rescues of some sort or another. Rascal's actually the second dog i've taken home because the owner didn't want to fix the broken leg. about half of them that i take home are stray/abandoned, the other half are released by owner.

4:33 pm

stidmama

haven't been to St. Lucia yet... okay. brb

4:33 pm

Uniquity

I've seen too many animals dumped while pregnant or injured...or the kittens dumped because they were unwanted. Many of my familys cats have come from situations like that. It's sad to see.

4:33 pm

jesdraggon

it's a beautiful place, stid

4:35 pm

jesdraggon

yeah; at least young ones are usually easy to find homes for...

4:35 pm

Magyk

can i get a clue for the in6/18 please?

4:35 pm

sammysmom

uniquity- thats how i got sammy and chuckie- i never wanted another pet but ouldn t bear to see them euthanised- so........

4:35 pm

4:35 pm

jesdraggon

love to, but don't have it yet, magyk

4:36 pm

Magyk

I found a cat and I'm trying to find somewhere to take him. His back leg is completely broken and he is walking on the top of it.

4:36 pm

Magyk

thank you BabRab

4:37 pm

sammysmom

we think sammy was a feral cat- when we brought him home- in a box he shot out of it and we didn t SEE him for 3 weeks

4:37 pm

BabbleRabble

many veterans are homeless and unwanted

4:37 pm

jesdraggon

start calling local vets... someone's gotta have emergency hours, magyk

4:37 pm

sammysmom

he would come out at night to eat and he used the letter box in the basement but he didn t want any human contact

4:37 pm

Uniquity

It's true. Emma came fromMum's shed..I have a small apt. and had no intention of taking a pet, but Emma melted my heart. Not meant for outside at all. Within a day she had become attached to me and all humans (big change) and loves our small home because she can always see her people :)

4:38 pm

stidmama

BR, you are right also -- too much of modern life allows us to ignore and turn our backs on the displaced. Human as well as animals.

4:38 pm

sammysmom

now he DEMAND to be fed petted and let in and out and will nip you if you don t hop to it

4:38 pm

Magyk

I'm thinking the leg is going to have to be amputated. I've been calling around for estimates but I don't have any money. There is so much nerve damage that he doesn't appear to be in any pain but it's an open wound and raw. It costs money to take him the humane society. I'm trying to find a no kill shelter.

4:39 pm

stidmama

oh gee, Magyk. poor kitty. so hard on you, too.

4:39 pm

MetFan

Might I please get a clue for the en's??

4:39 pm

Uniquity

Poor kitty :(

4:39 pm

Magyk

I hate that he is hurting. He is the sweetest cat. Just loves car rides and to be petted. I'm just unsure of what to do.

4:39 pm

stidmama

okay, gotta head out for a while. three hours without the menfolk, I ought to be able to get some writing done. Will wander by when I hit a roadblock (probably about fifteen minutes).

4:40 pm

Magyk

see ya stid!

4:40 pm

jesdraggon

bye stid :)

4:40 pm

sammysmom

mag- talk to your et - maybe several- talk to everyone you know or can think of- someone wil come up with something- there is an organization in cleveland (friends of animals) they help with spaying and shots the may be one near you

4:41 pm

jesdraggon

find a vet clinic that takes payments, or apply for care credit (medical/vet/dental credit card that doesn't charge interest if you payback within the grace period)

4:41 pm

Uniquity

My American friends have aways used local programs that somehow co-pay with you if you are of a low income somehow. I don't know much more about it at all, but maybe if you spoje to local vets and shelters they could make suggestions?

4:41 pm

BabbleRabble

en 6 -- sound like what the grand jury may do

4:41 pm

MetFan

I must need more coffee - not getting it.....

4:42 pm

Magyk

those are all great ideas! I'll start calling tomorrow. There are really only 2-3 vets around here. I'm sure one of them can help.

4:42 pm

sammysmom

when sam got hit by a car (deliberate- damn the bastard) we couldn t afford the 3 grand they wanted in our county- took him to a friends vet in another county- he had surgery - pins and all- they did it for 700 - we had to get a home equity loan for it but it was worth it

4:42 pm

Magyk

I'll brb...

4:43 pm

Uniquity

I know that there is always at least one vet that is overpriced and at least one that is a better price...my hometown has one that will gouge you for all your money and one that really cares about the animal and will help you however they can. Emma was neutered there.

4:43 pm

MetFan

Sorry, wrong box - TY BR

4:43 pm

Uniquity

Instead of 400 where i live now, it was 150 there. There are always options!

4:50 pm

redturtlehead

i must watch my temper.

4:51 pm

BabbleRabble

call that guy who picked your furniture up see if he can get you in touch with a supervisor or manager .. western union is expensive

4:51 pm

redturtlehead

i tried that at this point i believe it will all go down tomorro, i just want mr ass to deliver and take the money order and leave.

4:52 pm

BabbleRabble

were you told it had to be a postal money order"? or just guaranteed funds

4:52 pm

redturtlehead

Honestly I can not recall.

4:52 pm

redturtlehead

I called on Friday to see if a cashiers check would be OK and they seemed to think so, but...this guy is being a jerk.

4:52 pm

BabbleRabble

what does the contract say?

4:53 pm

westford

I'm back. Red do you still not have your stuff?

4:54 pm

westford

4:55 pm

4:55 pm

4:55 pm

BabbleRabble

4:56 pm

redturtlehead

I was going to give him cash, but when he was a no show no call for hours ALL day I thought, i can not ask the apartment complex to give a guy cash, so I converted it...to a Money order.

4:56 pm

redturtlehead

Oh BR,I hate to say it but they will get an earful very early in the morning tomorro.

6:08 pm

inge

Scrab, did you ever figure out that email attack?

6:08 pm

pugmama763

first IN6 please?

6:08 pm

Scrabbler

I could (1) ignore him, (2) reply in a brief, vague manner, or (3) type a long, detailed reply.

6:09 pm

Magyk

no worries MetFan!!

6:09 pm

inge

jesdraggon

/me throws compost at whoever was attacking Scrabs

6:10 pm

CiociaJudy

sorry, scrabs. missed the earlier explanation of your e-mail

6:10 pm

renfield

scrabs - who is boss richard's head?

6:10 pm

inge

I guess my border patrol forces stopped it from getting into my list

6:10 pm

Magyk

es5?

6:11 pm

Scrabbler

Narcissist boss, Jess, who se4 a nasty, hostile e-mail on Thursday evening, knowing he would not see me in the office until tomorrow.

6:11 pm

inge

es + folding bed

6:11 pm

DR1965

es5= es+ camping bed

6:11 pm

Magyk

thank you inge!

6:11 pm

Magyk

and DR! :)

6:12 pm

CiociaJudy

geez. must be a lot of those narcissist bosses. I have a few, too, but they don't know how to use e-mail!

6:12 pm

Scrabbler

2 issues--one is a hacker e-mail se4 from my account on Friday, other is nasty attack by boss

6:12 pm

jesdraggon

nothing like creating a hostile work environment to get one slapped by human resources. and you have it in writing.

6:12 pm

Scrabbler

Richard is the boss--owns the business.

6:12 pm

inge

hi, Ren, have you offered uyour services for negotiating with the Pirates?

6:13 pm

jesdraggon

hmm. nothing like a good job hunt to get the blood flowing ;)

6:13 pm

CiociaJudy

can't believe he sent an e-mail. geez.

6:13 pm

renfield

still boss richard's head is not exempt from creating a hostiel work environment

6:13 pm

Scrabbler

I did print it and will store it for goodkeeping

6:14 pm

jesdraggon

small business, i presume?

6:14 pm

renfield

hey inge - i like what the seals did - they're giving us a bad name

6:14 pm

CiociaJudy

good idea scrabs

6:14 pm

renfield

save the electronic copy too scrabs

6:14 pm

pugmama763

is EN6 afish?

6:14 pm

Scrabbler

And at the end he said that he didn't se4 it to anyone else so as to not create conflict...which means he doesn't want anyone to know how mean he was to me

6:14 pm

Magyk

it's the same as the in6-as in what a grand jury would do Pug

6:15 pm

DR1965

en6 is like the in6- just changes the first letter

6:15 pm

pugmama763

ty vm DR

6:15 pm

Scrabbler

renny, it is in our intramail system

6:15 pm

jesdraggon

I've had a few damn crazy bosses, and short of taking them to court for abusing employees, the best I ever figured out was getting a new job. Life is MUCH happier with a sane and reasonable boss

6:15 pm

pugmama763

& mag

6:15 pm

DR1965

glad to help Pug

6:15 pm

Scrabbler

TY, DR

6:15 pm

renfield

can you forward it to your personal e-mails scrabs?

6:16 pm

Magyk

anytime!

6:16 pm

DR1965

your welcome Scrabs

6:16 pm

Scrabbler

I don't think so, renny, or at least I don't know how

6:16 pm

DR1965

laundry calls brb

6:17 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, Jess, I am at that point, as difficult as it is to make a change or create problems for my patients/families. I must escape this lunatic, for my mental health.

6:19 pm

jesdraggon

my last really crazy one, I took a 2 week vacation, spent a week with my family and a week staying with a friend where I wanted to live--by the end of the week, I had a job and a place to live. first day back from vacation, I gave my 2 weeks notice.

6:19 pm

Scrabbler

I have been distraught since receiving the e-mail on Friday, but have talked with a co-worker and my attorney sister

6:19 pm

Magyk

any clues for the di6/24 please?

6:20 pm

inge

past tense of di 4

6:20 pm

Scrabbler

I don't have it, Magyk

6:20 pm

renfield

good scrabs -

6:20 pm

Magyk

thank you!

6:20 pm

CiociaJudy

{{Hugs}} Scrabbs. Tough time. You need to do what is best for YOU.

6:21 pm

inge

or the word used when you want to repeat something

6:21 pm

Magyk

I can't seem to get the super easy ones!!

6:21 pm

Scrabbler

My sister said to ignore the email but he will go ballistic if I don't reply in some manner. My reply is going to be: These concerns should be discussed in the forum of a MD/nurse practitioner meeting.

6:23 pm

CiociaJudy

any discussions with this idiot scrabs should be in a group setting.

6:23 pm

inge

Gee, Scrabs, didnt know things were this bad. If you move, move closer to carleekate and me.

6:23 pm

Scrabbler

Yes, there is protection in a group, and witnesses!

6:24 pm

Scrabbler

I cannot move, I just need to find a practice that could use/pay for me

6:24 pm

renfield

good reply scrabs - and i agree w/ judy - no one on ones w/ this psycho

6:24 pm

CiociaJudy

I take shorthand; shall I come up and take notes for you?

6:24 pm

renfield

i know how to box - i'll come body guard you scrabs

6:24 pm

inge

How about telling the guy you will tape the discussuion?

6:25 pm

Scrabbler

He is too chicken to even discuss things with me face to face in the office. He lashed out via email

6:25 pm

Scrabbler

Discussions must take place with the 4 docs and 3 nurse practitioners

6:26 pm

CiociaJudy

we'll bring your Babbler network to you, scrabs. Like the Verizon guy on TV! LOL

6:26 pm

renfield

lol judy!

6:27 pm

inge

With seven medical persons present, he better talk

6:28 pm

Scrabbler

The issue is that he wants total conformity with chart notes and I continue to produce/write/type my own detailed notes which are medicolegally defensible.

6:28 pm

jesdraggon

how are your notes different than the standard he wants?

6:29 pm

CiociaJudy

I hate that conformity crap. been through that nonsense too.

6:30 pm

Scrabbler

It is in regard to EMR (electronic medical records), Jess, and the use of "templates" which I dislike for their "boilerplate" content--so generic. I type detailed, thorough notes.

6:30 pm

Magyk

i can't find the ni5/10 anywhere!! the first one...any clues.

6:30 pm

renfield

does he want conformity so you can see more patients? or is he just anal retentive?

6:30 pm

jesdraggon

some things need to be standard though, judy... worked with a guy once who flat refused to put phone numbers in the same format as everyone else, so you could never find his cases in the computer because we looked them up by phone number

6:31 pm

Scrabbler

He wants me to click on template standards but it is time consuming to click, click, click, click to find the right wording.

6:31 pm

inge

ni 5 refers to Japanese immigrants

6:31 pm

inge

6:32 pm

jesdraggon

I would think that there wouldn't be a problem with adding MORE info, as long as everything in the template is included

6:32 pm

CiociaJudy

can you put his buzz words in the beginning and then add your add'l info?

6:32 pm

Scrabbler

I use some aspects of the templates (which is in blue print on the screen, with bold-type for "abnormals") and any added typing is in black.

6:33 pm

CiociaJudy

I know what you're saying jes but I worked with people who refused to conform to ANYTHING. and they were the bosses!

6:33 pm

Scrabbler

He doesn't like reading the black and wants to just see bold-type abnormals.

6:33 pm

Magyk

thank you Inge

6:34 pm

Scrabbler

I have always been a non-conformist with a focus on detail and high standards. I don't like to be average.

6:34 pm

CiociaJudy

He's lazy!

6:34 pm

inge

np, glad to help

6:35 pm

Scrabbler

i always miss that ni5 word!

6:35 pm

CiociaJudy

He should be thrilled that you take the time to be so detailed. And I'm sure your patients appreciate detailed info as well. He's just looking for quick work and making $$.

6:35 pm

jesdraggon

I fail to see how more detail in medical notes is ever a problem.

6:36 pm

Scrabbler

He should be pleased to see detail but (1) it is detail that he does not do and did not include in his templates, and (2) he wants total control

6:36 pm

sammysmom

how about the last 3 ni words- have tried everything i think?

6:37 pm

Scrabbler

I told him before that the end product of the content is what matters--a detailed, medicolegally defensible note, not the manner in which is was done.

6:37 pm

BabbleRabble

ni 5 is a plural

6:37 pm

CiociaJudy

ni + neap ***e

6:41 pm

Judy, it became apparent to me within the first 2-3 yrs of working with him and has worsened, in part because I am detailed, a nonconformist and an independent thinker, and very medicolegally strict.
