I'm in my new diplomatic phase, remember. She's very beautiful and I hope she treats him well.
3:22 am
Haz1558

I'll be left to pick up the pieces if she's bad to him.
3:22 am

Hello BR

BabbleRabble

hello
3:25 am
Haz1558

No, Andree, the secret engagement is poor Scrabbler's fantasy. I merely provide George with a room under the stairs to give him peace and quiet away from females with stalking issues.
3:26 am

Good morning, Babble Rabble.

3:44 am
Andree

seems strange
3:44 am
Haz1558

Was she going on holiday? There's talk of a cruise at the back of my mind, but I could be wrong.
3:45 am
Haz1558

We need something like 'Neighbourhood watch' to keep a record of who's going on holiday etc.
3:46 am
Andree

a cruise, without us
3:46 am
Haz1558

Husband and I were on holiday in Yorkshire. We drove for miles into the moors. At the end of a deserted road we came upon a house. It had a 'Neighbourhood watch' sticker in the window.
3:47 am
Andree

lol
3:49 am
lynxxx

West wasn't playing everyday like she used too. I remember seeing her a few weeks ago - maybe she's having a break as lots do. Babble seems to be seasonal for some
3:50 am
Andree

sometimes i go days but never longer
3:50 am
Andree

and my ranking must be in the toilet
3:50 am
Haz1558

You're probably right, lynxxx.
3:51 am
lynxxx

let's just say I get my monies worth
3:51 am
Haz1558

But we still talk to you, Andree.
3:51 am
Norma

Morning folks .. can anyone clue the no8 ;-)
3:52 am
Andree

thats the nice part of babble, one can come after a break and they haven't been forgotten
3:52 am
lynxxx

Hi Norma - there is no no8, nor the fa7 (I think someone said) a couple of extras on Lickety someone said
3:52 am
Andree

hi norma
3:52 am
Haz1558

Hello Norma. It may be one of the extra words on Lickety, only one 8 indicated on babble word stats and it's an re8.
3:53 am
Haz1558

There are probably names we don't know because of the different time zones, but by and large you do get to know and remember a large number of babblers, or at least those who chat.
3:53 am
Norma

I got the fa7 ... but that explains why my little fingers are down to stumps monkeying the no8 tyty
3:54 am
flosey

something odd, Word Stats says there's 1 8 letter word
3:54 am
Andree

painful looking for a word that isn't there
3:55 am
Haz1558

flosey, there's a discrepancy between Lickety's list and the puzzle list.
3:56 am
Norma

Yes flosey ... the stats are usually correct
3:57 am
flosey

do you happen to know where you can get the Jesus film in Pidgin? (Parents are looking)
4:59 am
forwardbyfaith

I have no idea - have they looked online?
4:59 am
gortmold

yes, and you'd think that since i work for the people who invented and distribute the film, i would be able to get my mitts on one
5:00 am
gortmold

we found solomon island pidgin, but not png pidgin
5:01 am
forwardbyfaith

Scrabbler

Timmy is undergoing a bone marrow transplant in an effort to beat his cancer. Sabrina + Ben are doing well. Mary's kids (the oldest 2, ages 5 and almost 9) are struggling a bit more--more realization that mary is really gone. I too am sad as we approach 1 yr since her death. I miss her so much.
6:27 am
Anniebrook

Will say a special prayer for Timmy. So very sad about your friend Mary. She is missed by so many.
6:28 am
Scrabbler

Mary would be so proud of her kids. The little one, 23 mo, is talking so well, very advanced, and she pooped on the potty Tuesday!

7:47 am
Jandy

Well, i might be a lush who is lush... i think the calories i drink may be a contributing factor... but the ones i chew are defintely the primary culprits.
7:47 am
Wolvie

7:47 am

my big calories are the booze myself
7:47 am

7:52 am
jmcnrick

I would hate to interfere with such dedication
7:52 am
Jandy

True, jmc, but we get some very hot weather... so the quinine in the tonic fights off malaria, and the extra liquid fights off dehydration..
7:52 am
Jandy

Really, i'm only drinking for my health's sake!

8:10 am
jmcnrick

I am sure -- but did you get lots of work done?
8:11 am
jesdraggon

uhm. well, i suppose so. porcupine quills out of three dogs, and the one i was worried about dying is still alive.
8:11 am
jmcnrick

then it sounds well worth the lack of sleep jes
8:12 am
jmcnrick

poor dogs
8:12 am
jmcnrick

I just started back at work after a month sabbatical so its odd
8:12 am
jesdraggon

they did it to themselves :P can't have too much sympathy for dogs that repeatedly get quilled. you'd think they'd learn. the other one though, he's had a damn rough night
8:13 am
jmcnrick

these same dogs got quilled before?
8:13 am
jesdraggon

at least one of them has, not sure about the other 2
8:13 am
jmcnrick

I really didn't think there were dogs that stupid!
8:14 am
jmcnrick

well maybe the one who was quilled before was trying to protect the others from his experience
8:14 am
jesdraggon

oh, you have no idea. we've got one boxer that we've de-quilled at least 6 times. and she doesn't get just a few either. buries her whole face in and takes a big bite

9:48 am

i have not actually seen any squirrels at my new place, just chipmunks. the owl must be doing a good job on them.
9:48 am

They got into the house once and since this is a rental, help was slow and our attic is now unusable!

10:33 am
rururocks

oh damn.. I never see that one.. thank you BR
10:33 am
Atalante

Jes, on a scale of bad to omg!dead, how bad is a feline BUN of 115?
10:35 am
Nef

hello Fellow Babblers. Ata, a *human* BUN of 115 means dialysis; don't know what it is for a cat though
10:35 am
rururocks

that is not that bad ata.. we've had higher numbers.. but it is renal weakness
10:36 am
Atalante

her normal BUNs were about 30 a year or so ago, now she's hovering between 80 and 115, poor baby, with creatinine of 9
10:37 am
Nef

poor cat! :-(
10:37 am
rururocks

that is too bad ata.. is she really old?
10:38 am
Atalante

6. She's *6*
10:38 am
Atalante

vet thinks it's a congenital issue, she was a street cat that appeared one day and got adopted in
10:38 am
rururocks

well she has had a better life with you..
10:39 am
Atalante

absolutely! it's just so sad, she's such a darling unassuming little kit
10:39 am
Nef

is she on a special diet? My Tommy had to be on a reanl diet before I had to put him down (for other reasons though. He was a rumpy Manx and had renal and neuro problems
10:40 am
rururocks

she could have eaten things on the street that affected her kidneys too and damaged them
10:41 am
rururocks

we've done the fluids thing with all our cats
10:41 am
Atalante

she's on Hill's k/d at the moment, and seems to like that, so that's good. and she's gaining weight on it, which is really necessary for her. when we took her to the vet a few months ago, she was skeletal. under 6lb. now she's over 7lb
10:42 am
Atalante

too true, ruru. We'll never know. we tried giving her fluids twice a week instead of every other day and she got rushed to the vet yesterday with vomiting and not drinking etc. she's back on every other day.
10:42 am
Nef

that's what we had Tommy on. How is her fliud status? It's good she's gaining weight
10:43 am
Atalante

she seemed to be doing really well until yesterday, bright eyed, bushy tailed, bouncing around for the first time in a year or so. then yesterday she just went downhill again. It could have been something she ate of course, something manky from under the cooker or something, but it was just awful how quickly she went from ok to hunched and miserable
10:45 am
Atalante

(sorry for wibbling about it. just had a bit of a scare over the last few hours with her!)
10:47 am
jesdraggon

Sorry, ata, wasn't ignoring...was outta the room. BUN is less of a good prognostic indicator than Creat. a creat of 9 is pretty serious, at the high end of what is usually treatable. typically, i tell people that at that level, we can treat aggressively and usually see some response. much higher than that, and even with IV fluids and hospitalization we don't usually gain much.
10:48 am
Nef

you know, being dehydrated will raise a BUN and possibly affect the Creat too
10:48 am
Atalante

*sigh* poor cats. I've been amazed at how many people have had cats with kidney problems since Jinx started to be ill
10:49 am
jesdraggon

chronic renal failure is really really common in cats, ata
10:49 am
jesdraggon

followed closely by hyperthyroidism
10:50 am
Atalante

TY, Jes. I thought something like that. We're trying to think of her on borrowed time and just enjoy her - treatment appears to be working, sort of. Enough, but not brilliantly. but as long as she's chasing bread ties and fighting her sisters ...
10:51 am
Atalante

I really didn't know that! I guess I've been lucky in never having had one die that way
10:51 am
jesdraggon

yep. usually not reversible or curable, but you can manage it, and as long as she's comfortable, that's what matters.
10:53 am
Atalante

yep. poor babe. we're learning a lot about giving fluids and anti-nausea jabs and all sorts of things!
10:53 am
jesdraggon

fun, isn't it? just put my kidney-cat down last weekend. :(
10:54 am
Atalante

oh jes, I'm sorry!
10:54 am
Atalante

and sorry for bringing up kidney stuff at just the wrong time! *hugs hugs hugs*
10:55 am
jesdraggon

eh. knew it was coming; actually surprised she made it as long as she did. she was in such crappy shape when I got her, and never did eat enough to get over 5 pounds.
10:56 am

poor thing :(

hello all.
10:58 am

but she got a couple months of sleeping on the bed before she went, which I have to think is an improvement over wasting away outside an abandoned house, right?
10:58 am

hi stiddy! go vote for Jes at the Animal REscue Site!
10:58 am

11:13 am
suefrad625

yes Nef, it is the ph balance in the food
11:14 am
jesdraggon

There's not really much connection between chronic renal failure and being male. I think you're think of urethral obstructions.
11:14 am
Nef

jes, I did get a pop-up and had to write it in. So that means I did vote? Good!
11:14 am

I got a sheep. must have heard me say I am allergic yesterday. *sigh*

Sheep are cute at a distance; up close it's a different story.
11:17 am
stidmama

I am allergic to ALL ruminants -- at least for ingestion (but I am not lactose intolerant). I haven't been around any live ones in so long that I don't know if that is safe. Just know that even incidental exposure in food is dangerous.
11:17 am
Atalante

lions! ooo!
11:17 am

I like frogs. but not to eat.
11:17 am

ok babblers, opinion time.

i have a very hard time finding classy leather boots that i like because (1) i have extremely large calves and (2) i am extremely picky.

so i have finally found a pair of wide-calf boots that i really like, but they are $200.

do i wanna pay $200 for a pair of boots?
i REALLY want boots, but im not sure if $200 is too much...

hi Katie

katie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
12:37 pm
KatieMcG

Hello, sorry haven't been on much been working late and can't face thinking after it
12:37 pm
KatieMcG

How are things?
12:38 pm
Atalante

I finally have warm toes cos I have a Hobbit on my feet :)
12:38 pm
Atalante

has work been horrid, or just long?
12:39 pm
KatieMcG

It's really hard at the moment but I actually prefer it like that. I was bored a while a go and really struggelled to get up, now when I don't know which way to turn I am shattered but happy - I know I can't help it!!
12:39 pm
Atalante

there's never a happy medium, is there!
12:41 pm
KatieMcG

They completely underestimated what a programme would involve and it seems that some of us have more than others to do! I've also had an interview for a sideways move to Birmingham and have had an assessment centre for a promotion (the interview for that is a week Monday) so all told it's been a hectic week
12:42 pm
Atalante

you'd like to move to Birmingham? Would it be more interesting?
12:43 pm
KatieMcG

it would only be a 16 mile commute each way, in November my office moves to Corby and that would be a 60 mile commute so it is really attractive. If I leave work at 6.45 I could be home by 7.15, at the moment it is 8 before I am getting in
12:44 pm
KatieMcG

work should be about the same on the interest levels but in the West Midlands rather than East, so different issues. I've worked there before (for a similar but different company) and loved it
12:45 pm
Atalante

sounds great! and B;ham is MUCH nicer than Corby!
12:45 pm
KatieMcG

I'm not holding out hopes on the promotion but thought I ought to at least make the effort!
12:46 pm
KatieMcG

Better shopping certainly lol
12:46 pm
Atalante

absolutely! you won't get if you don't ask!
12:47 pm
KatieMcG

I do hate assessment centres though and it lasted 6 hours
12:47 pm
Atalante

ick. ICK.
12:49 pm
Atalante

I'm just signing up for the next module of my Coastal Zone Management Msc thing
12:49 pm
Atalante

I get to learn about GIS
12:53 pm
KatieMcG

It is such a great tool Ata. I only use it in a very minor way but we have a whole team working on it. I know council's keep so much data that way now
12:53 pm
Atalante

the whole module is "environmental data analysis". I probably know a certain amount of it, having done a data analysis based phd, but I know *nothing* about GIS and am looking forward to it muchly
1:03 pm
ChrissieDee

good evening ladies - and good luck for the promotion, or at least the Birmingham post Katie
1:04 pm
Atalante

hi chrissie!
1:07 pm
ChrissieDee

1:08 pm
Atalante

omg the creepy fairy park! we were walking along one day, in Astoria, and walked into a tiny weeny little park thing, just to see what was there. What was there were HANGING CHRISTMAS TREE DOLLS.
1:08 pm
Atalante

it was very very odd
1:09 pm
Wolvie

eewww. I watched Destination Truth the other nite, and they were someplace with a forest of hanging dolls. Creepy
1:09 pm
Wolvie

supposedly left in offering to a little girl who had drowned there. ugh
1:10 pm
ChrissieDee

oh Wolvie, that's awful
1:10 pm
Wolvie

it was awful. and spooky. they were just hanging there, mostly rotted.
1:11 pm
Atalante

um yeah, this was kind of like that apart from the rotting. we ran away. after taking photos
1:11 pm
Wolvie

1:12 pm
Atalante

1:12 pm
Wolvie

lol
1:13 pm
Atalante

dolls are creepy, let alone hanging fairy dolls!
1:13 pm
ChrissieDee

Ata, all your photo's are amazing (not that I've gone through them all yet - just looking now) Who's the ace photographer, you or your partner?
1:13 pm
Wolvie

they sure can be.
1:14 pm
Atalante

me, she says modestly :P husband can't take photos to save his life most of the time!
1:15 pm
Wolvie

;-0
1:15 pm
ChrissieDee

are you professional?
1:16 pm
Atalante

no, but I have had photos published in National Geographic and a few other things. I can't tell you how many times I've really thought about taking the plunge and going pro
1:17 pm
Wolvie

wow. sounds like you could, ata.
1:17 pm
ChrissieDee

you really should, I'm gasping aloud at so many of them
1:18 pm

1:19 pm
Atalante

I have horribly silly cats and dogs to take pics of!
1:19 pm
ChrissieDee

"demon silycat" is hilariously scarey!
1:21 pm
ChrissieDee

You have great subjects, but most importantly an amazing eye
1:21 pm
ChrissieDee

ok, going to stop with the Ata fan club now, lol
1:21 pm
Atalante

sily is one of the prettiest cats I've ever seen - I know she's mine, but she truly is stunning - but when she yawns, she does THAT
1:21 pm
Atalante

it's so so so so funny
1:21 pm
Atalante

she's 4 now, and I *still* laugh every time she yawns
1:22 pm
Wolvie

good subjects. :-)
1:22 pm
Atalante

lol, you can keep going LOL. but ty, really, I love showing people fun things and beautiful things
1:22 pm
Wolvie

hee!
1:25 pm
Atalante

I'm actually going to start a weekly photo blog, should be fun
1:25 pm

2:07 pm
Preethi

Hello All :) Happy Friday!!
2:07 pm
Atalante

you can't really unless you actually buy them. but ploughing does seem to earn some occasionally
2:08 pm
Wolvie

hi preethi
2:08 pm
Wolvie

so if I want a barn, I gotta pay? ;-)
2:08 pm
Wolvie

i have earned a teeny amount of them, but no idea how I did it, lol
2:09 pm
Atalante

barns you can get with normal coins - just keep harvesting!
2:10 pm
Wolvie

but but, when I look at the price, it says FV 18 or something like that. LOL. Or will that change as I go up in levels?
2:10 pm
Wolvie

I want the groovy barn. :-)
2:11 pm
Atalante

oh well .... lol ... you would be fancy!
2:11 pm
Preethi

2:51 pm
TraderKate

saw a post a few minutes ago..no 8/40 and fa 7/44 are in lickety but do not exist in babble grid...slight glitch in programming?
2:53 pm
stidmama

yes, good book. simple premise, but one that we don't usually consider: that the brain as a physical organ grows and changes in response to use, and that this is the fundamental basis of learning.
2:53 pm
lbdawger

hi soodle
2:53 pm
Soodlebum

Hiya dawg!!
2:54 pm
lbdawger

the brain, an amazing muscle/organ. can't live without it, but we rarely exercise it as it should be used.
2:54 pm
Atalante

I think Lickety uses a slightly different dictionary
2:55 pm
lbdawger

i just want to know what the no8 is. i found the fa7
2:55 pm
stidmama

*doing brain
pushups with letter tiles*
2:55 pm
TraderKate

just wanted to make sure babblers weren't looking for words in the grid that 'don't exist'
2:55 pm
ChrissieDee

I take it you are a "mature student" stid and can vouch for the fact that you can still develop the brain as the years go on
2:56 pm
stidmama

first FA 7 please?
2:56 pm
ChrissieDee

I started my degree in my 40's. Ended with a first and definitely "bigger" brain
2:56 pm
lbdawger

some of the research i've re4 on alzheimers is interesting, exercising the brain, doing brain games and such to keep it from atropying
2:56 pm
TraderKate

today is volleymomdee's birthday
2:56 pm
stidmama

good for you chrissie! (gives me hope)
2:57 pm
lbdawger

the first one on lickety's list is not on the grid, stid
2:57 pm
lbdawger

the fa7.40 is fa4.7 + superlative ending
2:57 pm
stidmama

oh -- that's the FA 7 you meant! *sigh* I should pay better attention.
2:58 pm
Soodlebum

Dawg - I believe the technical term is 'Use it or Lose it'!
2:58 pm
stidmama

happy bday to dee (wherever she is)
2:58 pm

that would be the phrase, soodle
2:59 pm

3:28 pm

starvation diets don't work very well. look at portion control and either count carbs or fats to watch on your intake of food
3:28 pm
72 Temple Owl

lyn i love your doggie breeds
3:28 pm
GreyWoulf

yes, lbd, where I used to get up at 7 to be at work by eight and then work 10 hour days, M-F
now I have to get Kristianna up at 6 so she get to school at 7 - and on MWF, I am picking her up from school at 3:30 and working from home for an hour or so to make sure my hours are maintained
3:28 pm
ChrissieDee

3:29 pm

3:30 pm
72 Temple Owl

3:31 pm
GreyWoulf

3:32 pm
72 Temple Owl

mechanical, electronic, materials, metallurgy
3:33 pm
GreyWoulf

TO -- I wasn't asked to work 10 hour days, it just worked out that way -- I have a tendency to get too involved in my work and forget to take lunch especially when I am helping in the warehouse -- and then I have emails to answer which always add an extra hour minimum
3:33 pm
lbdawger

i love drawing out furniture patterns and house plans. all day dreams.
3:34 pm
GreyWoulf

lbd - house plans are the best... although I always try to work in at least one tower for a library and a semi secret back hallway between certain rooms

af5 three phone calls and a bit of yelling
9:12 pm
jmcnrick

there are lots of "healthy" toppings in this town -- tofu and such
9:12 pm
lbdawger

it shouldn't have had to take that much complaining, but at least it's resolved
9:12 pm
Dorens

tofu pizza? that's a new one for me
9:13 pm
jmcnrick

I love tofu and hate tofu pizza
9:13 pm
jmcnrick

broccoli is big too
9:13 pm
lbdawger

i'm with you there, jmc. some things just don't belong on a pizza
9:13 pm
Dorens

broccoli si, tofu no!
9:14 pm
jmcnrick

i find the broccoli tends to be too big and undercooked
9:14 pm
lbdawger

i've had asperagus, artichokes, kiwi, m and m's, chocolate sauce and various pie fillings
9:15 pm
lbdawger

but not all on the same pizza
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

a sweet pizza?
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

lol I would hope not all on the same one!
9:15 pm
rbud

dessert pizza, good stuff!
9:15 pm
lbdawger

dessert pizza is a good way to go for a large group
9:16 pm
jmcnrick

never had one but can see its charm
9:16 pm
Dorens

my favorite pizza is the simplest. margharetia. fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, fresh garlic (fresh tomato doesn't hurt either)
9:16 pm
Uneaixoise

in a woodburning oven!!
9:16 pm
lbdawger

oooh, love a good margharetta pizza
9:16 pm
jmcnrick

I have a vegan on my staff so now I have to order vegan pizza for the office
9:17 pm
jmcnrick

I think a pizza without cheese is sad!
9:17 pm
lbdawger

a strick vegan? no cheese! yuck!
9:18 pm
jmcnrick

yeah I get them from time to time
9:18 pm
lbdawger

toast with tomato sauce...gag
9:18 pm
jmcnrick

it always causes me quick a quandry trying to cook anything not asian
9:18 pm
Dorens

we have a place near here that does excellent margharita== a bit too much garlic, maybe, but I love it. once a month in the summer we get it delivered to the beach for my book club and we sit at the gazebo, and sneak wine with it (a bunch of old egghead ladies, why would anyone bother us for drinking wine, right?)
9:18 pm
jmcnrick

but they are easier than when I have an observant Jew or Muslim
9:19 pm
jmcnrick

too much garlic is an oxymoron
9:19 pm
Dorens

this past tuesday night we sat there with candles into the evening.. it was such fun
9:19 pm
jmcnrick

sounds nice dorens
9:19 pm
lbdawger

I used to own a taxi, drove a couple of sweet old babes weekly to and from their "card night" - where they partook freely of homemade wines of various flavors - they were a hoot! Red hat society.
9:20 pm
lbdawger

i tried being part of a book club once. didn't work out, i don't like picking apart books. or hashing over stuff that isn't relevent.
9:20 pm
jmcnrick

9:21 pm
Uneaixoise

9:22 pm
Dorens

most of us don't do that... i am actuallly in two book clubs.. the library book club (the one that meets at the beach) is such fun... really funny eclectic smart women. we're really becoming quite fond of one another
9:22 pm
Dorens

the other is a bit sillier, mostly what they do is decide who should be cast in the film version of each book..
9:22 pm
Uneaixoise

how do you select the books, dorens?
9:23 pm
lbdawger

both sound like fun, dorens. i guess i've not found the right group.
9:23 pm
Dorens

usually someone has read a book and recommends it... once in a while there is some controversy, but usually not. and i read books i wouldn't have known about otherwise, and they're usually good. some (from the silly book group) are kind of lightweight, and sometimes i dont' read them
9:24 pm
Uneaixoise

just curious . . .
9:24 pm
Dorens

once they read a jodi picoult book. i thought it was dreadful, and swore i'll never read another book by her, but i have to admit it generated the most interesting conversation
9:24 pm
jmcnrick

I want reese witherspoon to play me if merryl streep isn't available
9:24 pm
Uneaixoise

glad you like our local girl, jmc!
9:25 pm
lbdawger

jodi picoult...she's a recipe writer. just change the scenery and name of the characters
9:25 pm
Dorens

i just finished olive kittredge... bought it cause i saw someone else who was reading it and she loved it.. it won a pulitzer, so figured it had to be good... and we really enjoyed it... recommended it to both book groups... the library group adored it! we'll see about the other group. we discuss in october
9:25 pm
jmcnrick

I thought she was wonderful as june carter
9:25 pm
Uneaixoise

my ex is her family's hairstylist :-)
9:25 pm
BabbleRabble

the odd thing about book clubs is that I never known a book to join one
9:26 pm
Dorens

9:26 pm
jmcnrick

9:26 pm
Dorens

i liked the book, but the movie put me to sleep.
9:26 pm
Uneaixoise

oohhh, but TK, the movie was woooonderful!
9:27 pm
jmcnrick

i hated the english patient -- and the bridges of madison county
9:27 pm
Dorens

yes, groucho wouldn't want to be a member of any group that would have him, or something like that
9:27 pm
lbdawger

gag on bridges
9:27 pm
jmcnrick

both the books and the movies
9:27 pm
Uneaixoise

even the movie??
9:27 pm
Dorens

maybe i didn't like the movie cause i read the book, une?
9:27 pm
TraderKate

never saw movie...if it followed the book then it must have been a snoozefest
9:27 pm
jmcnrick

I usually read the book before I see the movie if I can
9:28 pm
Dorens

bridges... read the book when i needed something light so that was ok... but the movie? i adore meryl streep, but that was bad casting, i think, didn't like the movie
9:28 pm
Uneaixoise

hmmm, i read the book after the movie -- TK, heresy! the movie was excellent
9:28 pm
jmcnrick

the worst translation of a book to a movie I EVER saw was the 7 Faces of Dr. Lao
9:28 pm
TraderKate

usually prefer book to movie, usually better story and lots more depthj/detail
9:28 pm
lbdawger

i've found that movies often take too much license, and it turns out not being the st5 i re4
9:28 pm
Dorens

how about dr. zhivago? i adored the movie
9:28 pm
jmcnrick

I adore meryl streep too but she could save that story
9:28 pm
Dorens

then again, i was young, studying russian, and in love with julie christie
9:29 pm
Uneaixoise

Dr. Zhivago came out when I was a teenager working in our local movie theatre :-)

9:29 pm
TraderKate

9:29 pm
Dorens

9:29 pm
lbdawger

mrpresident

9:40 pm
jmcnrick

my husband was on what we called the no food diet -- which (because he had no kidneys) meant no potassium
9:40 pm
jmcnrick

no salt, no cholesterol
9:40 pm

9:41 pm
Dorens

jasmine, if you are on facebook, go to the water fasting group
9:44 pm
mrpresident

I have been posting on there daily
9:44 pm
mrpresident

30 days is very long! why are you fasting jasmine?
9:44 pm
nbjasmine

i am on face book, i will look for it
9:45 pm
nbjasmine

many reasons comprising the physical, mental, and spiritual
9:45 pm
mrpresident

my discussion is called 'my 2009 water fast'
9:45 pm
nbjasmine

are you mr pres on facebook?
9:46 pm
mrpresident

are you seeing a doctor everyday jasmine
9:46 pm
mrpresident

no, I am michelle matula
9:46 pm
mrpresident

lickety is also a member of the group
9:47 pm
nbjasmine

not everyday. md gave me the go ahead for 15 days as i am in excellent overall health. will check in day 15 then go from there
9:48 pm
mrpresident

I go to a doctor everyday, have urine checked and blood tests every 3 days... it is very important to have medical support throughout the fast
9:49 pm
nbjasmine

with no health "problems" there is no way i would be allowed to visit the md everday, altho she did say to contact her at any time if i felt need....
9:49 pm
nbjasmine

are you in retreat? or at home?
9:50 pm
mrpresident

at home, and don't have any restrictions to seeing a doctor everyday.
9:50 pm
mrpresident

Personally, if you can go everything 3 days, you will be safe
9:51 pm
mrpresident

'every 3 days'
9:51 pm
nbjasmine

well health care here doesn't allow for it! you may have heard of our woes in that regard
9:52 pm
mrpresident

jasmine, how do you know how your potassium levels are? and your liver functions, and your sodium??
I would NOT fast without full support... your system sucks for you and 30 days is dangerous in that case
9:52 pm
nbjasmine

truly i feel safe in the first 15 days. i have done a lot of research and have fasted before (not as long) so have confidence
9:53 pm

Andree

mrp now i know why we havent met for lunch, lol
9:54 pm
mrpresident

it is good to have fasted before, but don't let the 'fasting high' that hits you in week two fool you. Blood tests are important and urine tests daily are necessary to check for proteins and blood in urine
9:54 pm
nbjasmine

my water is softened with potassium so i get plenty, and if i feel weakened overly much will certainly see the doc.
9:55 pm
nbjasmine

hi andree
9:56 pm

10:08 pm
jmcnrick

it usually take more wine than that for me
10:08 pm
Jacula

jmc - there's something you should know - after 12 years of drinking too much, our liver softens and can't take so much. That is the time to slowly cut down and then maybe stop drinking.
10:09 pm
jmcnrick

maybe so
10:09 pm
Andree

two glasses is my limit , if i have more i need to puke
10:09 pm
Jacula

Or maybe only drink with meals at weekends.
10:10 pm
Trifioso

jac, do you find a difference between white and red wine? I find I can drink a few glasses of red wine with no problem at all, but white wine goes right to my head - one and a half glasses, tops!

i am allergic to white wine, never used to be but the last 10 years red is my drop
10:11 pm
mrpresident

my liver function test was a shocker!! It is now back to normal
10:11 pm
Trifioso

are you allergic to white grapes too?
10:12 pm
Trifioso

or is it the tannic acid or something that you react to?
10:13 pm
Jacula

Trif - since dry white's my tipple, I could drink it endlessly but never really liked red very much. It was vinegary. However, since Beloved has been here with his small stock of merlot or cabernet sauvigignon, I've developed a taste. Doesn't get you drunk so quickly but , due to the tannin, give you a hangover next day.
10:13 pm
Andree

no trif, i believe the whites are aged differently
10:14 pm
Jacula

Andree - it could (your allegry) be due to the preservatives used to make white wine.
10:14 pm
BabbleRabble

and if you cannot enjoy the benefit of a hangover, well, why even drink?
10:15 pm
Andree

probably jac
10:17 pm
Andree

due to my strange metabolism, i am sick if i drink too much i have never had a hangover
10:17 pm
jmcnrick

i like it better when I skip the hangover myself BR
10:17 pm
Jacula

White wine is preserved with isinglass - a substance obtained from the swimbladders of fish (especially Beluga sturgeon). It is a form of collagen used mainly for the clarification of wine and beer.

10:17 pm
jmcnrick

I wonder if my vegan friends know that?
10:18 pm
Jacula

I had no thought or intention of drinking earlier, but Beloed and his daughter had drinks by thieir side as we settled down to watch TV. So, I poured one glass...
