hi everyone
3:36 am
Haz1558

Hello Andree.
3:37 am
millsbooks

morning
3:37 am
Andree

haz haven't seen you around the last few days
3:38 am
Haz1558

Andree, I've been really busy so was doing the grid and not chatting.
3:38 am
Haz1558

And of course,the day when things ease up, we have a tiny grid!
3:39 am
Andree

i do that often when i'm busy
3:40 am
Andree

its tiny but has it teeth, i have just started
3:40 am
Atalante

*flop*
3:40 am
Haz1558

Hello. floppy Ata. I'm crawling to a finish.
3:40 am
Andree

hi ata
3:41 am
Atalante

I'm crawling to a start
3:41 am
Andree

haz did you see that i have changed puppies name
3:41 am
Haz1558

Yes - Hugo now - a very dignified name.
3:42 am
Haz1558

And tomorrow is the big day?
3:43 am
Andree

yes, miss 6 and miss 10 are coming with me to pick him up
3:43 am
Atalante

what fun!
3:44 am
Haz1558

That'll be great, Andree, company and memories to be made for them.
3:44 am
Andree

it has worked out well its a long weekend and tue is day off so i have 4 full days with no work, once he is potty trained he will come to tha office with me
3:45 am
Haz1558

He'll probably learn quickly, he's bound to be smart. And with spaniel eyes he'll be quickly forgiven for any accidents.
3:45 am
Andree

jules leaves tomorrow for NZ to visit her birth family so it will give me 10 days in the house alone to bond
3:46 am
Andree

its a shame the kids won't be here but maybe for the best
3:46 am
Haz1558

How old will he be, Andree, and when do you do routine vaccinations in Australia?
3:46 am
Atalante

probably
3:47 am
Andree

ata i found a perfect box and blanket so will start with those till he is bigger before i buy a bed
3:47 am
Atalante

awww great
3:48 am
Andree

nearly 8 weeks, next vac next week then 12 weeks then 1 year
3:48 am
Haz1558

Have you got the kennel built?
3:48 am
Haz1558

(Waiting for cries of outrage)
3:48 am
Haz1558

And then once he gets his final vaccinations you can start all those route marches.
3:48 am
Atalante

looooooool
3:49 am
Atalante

even I believe in route marches lol
3:49 am
Andree

i had lunch with mrp today and she offered me her unused kennel, don't think i need one, all my dogs before have slept inside
3:50 am
Haz1558

Ah, that's where you've been spoiling your dogs, Andree. Nothing says you're in charge more than providing a dog with a draughty, damp, spider infested kennel.
3:50 am
Atalante

and gruel
3:50 am
Haz1558

Thin gruel. Thinnest of thin.
3:50 am
Andree

i was planning bread and water
3:51 am
Haz1558

It has to be mouldy bread, don't forget.
3:51 am
Andree

is that thin enough
3:51 am
Andree

well we all know what a cruel person i am
3:51 am
Haz1558

I suppose if you mix the mouldy bread into a paste with the water, it would make a kind of thin gruel.
3:51 am
Haz1558

You're certainly on the right lines.
3:52 am
Haz1558

We talk about your cruelty constantly, Andree.
3:55 am
Atalante

all the time
3:55 am
Andree

i know, guess i deserve it,lol
3:59 am
Haz1558

How did your lunch go with mrp?
4:00 am
Andree

it was lovely, we had a delious chinese meal
4:01 am
Haz1558

Just the two of you? No problems in keeping the conversation going, I'm sure.
4:01 am
Andree

lol
4:02 am
Andree

she has been so sick for so long and is so well now looks fantastic, hope all that ill health is behind her
4:03 am
Haz1558

I think we'd all join in that hope, it's been a long road for her.
4:04 am
Andree

she feels the fast she has just done[ 14 days] has rid her body of all the drugs and antibiotics she had been on for so long
4:05 am
Andree

and i must say her eyes are sparkling and skin looks fabulous
4:05 am
Andree

made me quite sick really
4:05 am
Haz1558

She didn't go for the old colonic irrigation?
4:06 am
Andree

ugh
4:06 am
Haz1558

The thought of it is bad enough, but there are people willing to go on TV and have it done. Some things are best left to the imagination.
4:07 am
Atalante

could you get any less dignified?
4:07 am
Andree

and a lot of other things on tv, i really hate reality shows, only watch 1
4:09 am
Andree

don't worry ata for the sake of ratings someone will come up with something
4:09 am
Haz1558

I don't mind the reality shows where people are actually being taught to do something.
4:10 am
Haz1558

But talking about TV and reality in the same sentence is probably pushing it.
4:11 am
Haz1558

Husband once took part in a local series about his veterinary practice. He got weary of having to drive the car for them to get a shot of him approaching the farm, and of being asked to do some part of an operation 'again, we didn't get a good shot.'
4:11 am
Atalante

oh no! lol! poor cow!
4:12 am
Andree

many like me watch tv to get a break from reality
4:13 am
Haz1558

One segment featured him paring a cow's foot. You can't really put the stuff back on again, just for them to get their camera angle right.
4:13 am
Andree

i was watching something the other day and they were picking up their dog poops!!!!
4:13 am
Atalante

no!!
4:14 am
Andree

and talking about the smell and carpet stains, would love to tell them to get a life
4:14 am
Haz1558

It was a bit of a pressure on everyone, because they would ring up and say that they were coming in on a particular day. There was no guarantee that life-saving and interesting operations were going to be needed to be done.
4:15 am
Haz1558

You can't just grab ill=looking animals and announce 'So you've always wanted to be a TV star?'
4:15 am
Atalante

as long as they didn't make up any interesting operations!
4:15 am
Haz1558

Just think, Andree, you could ring up a TV station and ask to be followed around while you're house training Hugo!
4:16 am
lynxxx

Good evening
4:16 am
Haz1558

Ask for plenty of money.
4:16 am
Andree

they would probably be quite happy if you made an animal ill so they could get a good shot
4:16 am
Haz1558

Hello lynxxx.
4:16 am
Haz1558

It was quite funny, they would be willing the phone to ring with some outlandish complaint to be dealt with.
4:17 am
Andree

withthe other rubbish thats on they would probably thin it was entertainment
4:17 am
Andree

ynxxx
4:17 am
Andree

think too
4:17 am
Andree

hi lynxxx too
4:17 am
Haz1558

Hugo would have the cute factor on his side.
4:18 am
Andree

and the eyes!
4:19 am
Haz1558

You could have lingering shots of the kennel.
4:19 am
Atalante

and gruel recipes!
4:19 am
Haz1558

Damp, draughty with HUGE Australian spiders.
4:20 am
Andree

so hugo could be a star, and i could be rich
4:21 am
Haz1558

It looks that way.
4:22 am
Andree

hope i still have time to babble
4:22 am
Atalante

hey, we're host to loads of famous ppl here!
4:22 am
Haz1558

You can employ staff, you'll be able to devote your energy to babble.
4:23 am
Atalante

and walking Hugo
4:23 am
Andree

and we know famous is as famous does
4:23 am
Atalante

Hugo would be a charming famous puppy
4:24 am
lynxxx

I watched a new show last night (well new for Aust) with Kirsty from Relocation, Relocation. Showed her parents house - if I was to get rich I would buy that house complete with furnishings, beautiful!
4:24 am
Atalante

Kirsty Allsop?
4:24 am
Haz1558

She does come from quite a rich background, doesn't she?
4:24 am
Andree

what was the show called
4:25 am
lynxxx

Yes, I didn't realise
4:25 am
Haz1558

Is it the one where she makes stuff for a cottage. Kirsty's House or something?
4:26 am
lynxxx

Kirsty Handcrafts or something along those lines - the show itself was so-so, sped too fast through everything
4:26 am
Andree

thus nights, i will watch out for it
4:27 am
lynxxx

yes Kirsty Allsop, should that surname ring a bell?
4:27 am
Andree

thurs too, my typing is extra bad tonight
4:27 am
Haz1558

It didn't get very good reviews over here - I haven't watched it myself so can't comment other than to say that critics felt the whole idea of people making their own stained glass was a bit unrealistic. It would still be more interesting than watching people picking up dog poo.
4:27 am
Andree

or having a colonic
4:28 am
Haz1558

Or having inane conversations about themselves.
4:28 am
Andree

and i know a couple of people who do stained glass
4:29 am
Haz1558

I think the idea is good - to encourage people to try out new crafts, but the idea of doing everything is a bit much.
4:29 am
Haz1558

But at least she speaks nicely!
4:29 am
Atalante

you need collectives. 1 to do stained glass, 1 to make pottery etc
4:30 am
Haz1558

I'd make the tea and do the ironing!
4:30 am
Atalante

and cook cheesecakes
4:30 am
Haz1558

Yes, they'd all get horribly overloaded with calories.
4:31 am
Haz1558

And I could brush up and keep the place tidy.
4:31 am
Atalante

takes energy making crafts!
4:31 am
Andree

and i am craft mad, have so many projects going, want to finish before i die, i know my kids will toss out all my fabrics , paints etc
4:32 am
lynxxx

Energy...and time, and passion, and even money
4:32 am
Atalante

send them all over here! I'll use them! I have boxes full of *stuff*
4:32 am
Andree

stained glass i have been told is a very expensive hobby
4:33 am
Haz1558

Do you have a dedicated craft room, Andree?
4:33 am
Andree

what i hate is when you give an item you have made, folks think you have saved money,lol
4:34 am
lynxxx

My mother was a spinner, dyer & quilter plus sewer etc. She had a quilting room. It took so long to clear it all out and pass on appropriately when she passed
4:34 am
Andree

i have a sewing room with all my stuff but keep painting and messy stuff in the garage
4:35 am
Haz1558

My daughter in Edinburgh was very pleased with herself, She had saved the leather from a much loved pair of boots and eventually found someone who was able to make a bespoke handbag using it and some buttons and bits and pieces she had squirreled away. She's thrilled with it and so triumphant that she hadn't listened to me and thrown out the boots.
4:36 am
Andree

when we moved in here, that was to be my work room, Jules's files and paperwork and computer etc have crept in, one of the few things about my "flatmate" that annoys me
4:37 am
lynxxx

Haz - is Edinburgh permanent now? Is this the daughter who graduated?
4:37 am
Andree

thats true recycling, i'm a recycling nazi[among other things]
4:37 am
Haz1558

Yes, it's the one who graduated in July. She's got a job in Edinburgh now although I can't see it being a job for life - and I think she'd go crazy if she thought she'd never get something better.
4:38 am
Haz1558

However, it's a job and better than nothing. She'd like to stay in Edinburgh, but will have to be prepared to adapt to whatever the job market is offering.
4:38 am
Andree

i try to give her the hint especially when i am making a quilt to put her stuff somewhere else
4:39 am
Andree

from little things big things grow haz
4:40 am
Haz1558

I'm happy that she has a strong work ethic, this job frustrates her because she isn't kept busy enough.
4:40 am
Andree

and i guess at the moment one has to think that many graduates have no job
4:41 am
Haz1558

Exactly. She's been feeling a bit down lately, probably because so many of her friends are going elsewhere and suddenly the reality of living as an adult instead of the different world of university is hitting home.
4:41 am
forwardbyfaith

can't find any of the p words - find a pu4 but that is not even showing up!
4:42 am
Atalante

is she teaching?
4:42 am
Andree

my ex son in law who is an economist was retrenched last december and still not working, he is being far too fussy
4:42 am

11:44 am

LOL!
11:45 am
72 Temple Owl

11:46 am
FMitch

11:46 am
Vicuna

Keeps 'em safe, TO. Her dog has a perfect finish.
11:46 am
72 Temple Owl

just leave hte head out
11:47 am
Vicuna

ANd if you don't use plenty of bubble wrap the postal service can be so rough.
11:47 am
Vicuna

No, TO, the head's the most delicate part! Double layer there!
11:48 am
Atalante

I wish WISH I could find another 2 for me and Haz!
11:48 am

Is all this wrapping preperatory to the move, FM?

11:56 am

I liked the two guys I met through match.com
11:56 am
72 Temple Owl

11:56 am

11:56 am
nrkii

oh, I also got a neighbor... lives 3 doors away
11:56 am
72 Temple Owl

oooh dish, je! i did not know you joined
11:56 am
EvaNadine

course, they also tried to match me with an old coworker, and a friends ex!
11:56 am
nrkii

didn't date him though... that would have been TOO bizarre
11:57 am
jmcnrick

several years ago when son was young
11:57 am

my last match experience made me quit match though
11:57 am
jmcnrick

but it turned out my son couldn't handle me dating so I stopped
11:57 am
72 Temple Owl

wekk any of you who have experience, can you help me please> why do i get matched by mail where i am older than they specify? that's cheating. you too nrk - dish
11:57 am

one was a writer who lived in rural va.
11:58 am
FMitch

Time for dinner - lovely to see you al but must be off.
Happy Babbling.

11:58 am
nrkii

1. match.com kept sending me same matches over and over
11:58 am
Atalante

bye dear!
11:58 am
nrkii

2. match.com kept sending me matches way out of my geography range
11:58 am
jmcnrick

you get match if you have several thing matching even if not all
11:58 am
EvaNadine

TO, i think if you match up with the majority of their specifications, they will still match you
11:58 am
jmcnrick

bye fm
11:59 am
nrkii

3. 2 of the 3 guys I dated from match were not self-confident enough for my tastes
11:59 am
72 Temple Owl

and do they do that to void the guarantee? that is why i think they send me matches that don't want me
11:59 am
nrkii

bye fm!
11:59 am
EvaNadine

my friend + her hubby met through match, though. they seem well-matched!
11:59 am
jmcnrick

wow there were a lot of vowel combinations around the pf!
11:59 am
72 Temple Owl

ok well as long as it did not involve danger...how long were you a member?
12:00 pm
nrkii

no, TO, I think they just want you to keep your options a bit more open
12:00 pm
nrkii

off and on for a few years
12:00 pm
jmcnrick

no they were both sweet.
12:00 pm
nrkii

the last one had me worried about danger, after I broke up with him
12:00 pm
72 Temple Owl

ty for sharing. i do need to go have a headshot done
12:00 pm
jmcnrick

of course the minute i describe my job anyone can find me on the internet
12:00 pm
nrkii

I went to Glamour Shots and splurged, then also put in a couple of candids
12:01 pm
jmcnrick

maybe I should get my son to go a glamor shot of me and try again
12:01 pm
Vicuna

Umm... belated farewell, FM!
12:01 pm
72 Temple Owl

is there still a glamor shots?
12:01 pm
nrkii

It was nice to meet new people, and to date... I miss that
12:01 pm
nrkii

yep still exists... I went to the one in the Bridgewater (NJ) mall
12:01 pm
EvaNadine

i always emailed/chatted online for quite some time before agreeing to meet. if they were too desperate to meet or pushing me into it, i was done.

then, when i did agree to meet, it was always in a public place, where someone knew where i was + when i was to be home. often, i would have a friend with me for the initial meeting.
12:01 pm
nrkii

it was fun!
12:02 pm
72 Temple Owl

ok thx will google ...the one here made me look like a tart
12:02 pm
nrkii

Eva, I wasn't quite as cautious
12:02 pm
nrkii

oh, just tell them you need headshots for work, so you can't go too crazy
12:03 pm
EvaNadine

i was kinda paranoid. but better safe than sorry. :)
12:03 pm
nrkii

and after I "wasn't quite as cautious," I wished I had been more so
12:03 pm
72 Temple Owl

ok i think i would begin as eva but i guess there is a point where you make a decision
12:04 pm
nrkii

nothing happened, but I had a few days where I was worried he was going to turn into a stalker
12:04 pm
nrkii

TO, very true, at some point, you're going to take a risk
12:04 pm
72 Temple Owl

OMG nrk they can airbrush you!!
12:04 pm
nrkii

they DID airbrush me, which was a little annoying
12:04 pm
EvaNadine

TO, if youre still in annapolis, theres a Glamour Shots near there. ;)
12:04 pm
nrkii

that's why I ended up including candids too
12:05 pm
72 Temple Owl

hell nrk i need all the airburshing i can get! ty evaN
12:05 pm
nrkii

oh, one thing with Glamour Shots... bring some clothes of your own... don't rely on what they have. And bring good color selection.
12:05 pm
72 Temple Owl

they would need to graft a new head, as beat aws i am after work
12:06 pm
Atalante

go before work then ;)
12:06 pm
nrkii

well, they airbrushed out a couple of moles I have on my face, which is great, but eventually you're going to meet the guy, and not look quite as GLAMOURY as they make you look
12:06 pm
72 Temple Owl

good thought ata but i look horrid at 6AM
12:07 pm
Atalante

awww bet you don't
12:07 pm
Vicuna

Or bring your own extra head so they don't give you one that looks like a tart.
12:07 pm
72 Temple Owl

what i fear is that they will make my skin look better than it is then whomnever will be very disappointed
12:07 pm
nrkii

no way TO... you're quite pretty and I know you'll look great...
12:07 pm
Atalante

I think anyone who sees a "glamour shot" will know thats not 100% accurate
12:08 pm
nrkii

and if they overdo it on your skin, you can get the non-airbrushed version too
12:08 pm
nrkii

but definitely include a couple of candids in your profile
12:08 pm
Vicuna

I think you looking nice is much better than any attempts to make you look like some fake model person.
12:08 pm
72 Temple Owl

nrk: i had such bad acne as a teen and young adult...i have had two lasers to treat it and am currenlty g ong to book another
12:08 pm
nrkii

I agree Vicuna, but I still had a blast getting the glamour shots done
12:09 pm
jmcnrick

TO go on a day off and then you have no excuse
12:09 pm
Vicuna

Well, that's a whole nother issue, nrkii. No harm in having fun with it! =)
12:09 pm
72 Temple Owl

i don't want to look glamourous. just pretty
12:09 pm
EvaNadine

i had glamor shots done when i was like 13 or 14 and people thought i was 30. :X
12:09 pm
nrkii

TO, didn't I meet you in DC this past winter? Weren't you there?
12:09 pm
72 Temple Owl

yes.
12:09 pm
nrkii

by the way, my facebook pic is Glamour Shot
12:09 pm
Atalante

can you get a friend to take some just "normal" photos? Friends always get the best shots of you looking relaxed
12:10 pm
nrkii

well, I didn't notice anything with your skin, so you shouldn't worry about it too much
12:10 pm
72 Temple Owl

good plan, ata
12:10 pm
nrkii

our mirrors need to be redesigned so we can't look at them quite so close up
12:10 pm
Atalante

that's a lovely pic, nrk
12:10 pm
Vicuna

Or get them slightly frosted.
12:10 pm
72 Temple Owl

LOl it's worsew with reading glasses if you forget to take them off
12:11 pm
nrkii

I loved that shot because even though it makes me a little "too pretty," it captures how I felt inside, and my personality in general
12:11 pm
nrkii

and thanks Ata!
12:11 pm
Atalante

it is, it's a really "normal" glamour shot, you look happy and smily
12:11 pm
72 Temple Owl

well i was loooking for one of the shots from our meet that i thoght was pretty good but no one has sent any
12:12 pm
nrkii

yes, maybe we could get that filter they used on Cybil Shepherd in Moonlighting... soft filter on all our mirrors, so we are more forgiving
12:12 pm
nrkii

TO, can you grab it off FB?
12:12 pm
72 Temple Owl

i read where tom brokaw was shot through a filter
12:13 pm
Vicuna

Yeah, very nice smile, nrk!
12:13 pm

12:13 pm

12:13 pm

12:14 pm

12:14 pm

12:16 pm
72 Temple Owl

12:16 pm
nrkii

12:16 pm
Atalante

ick ick! don't you just hate it when your neck *clicks* and you feel all sick for a moment
12:17 pm
nrkii

they do the hair and makeup, and it's very inexpensive to have the session... but the pics are expensive
12:17 pm
EvaNadine

that is a nice shot on your FB :)
12:17 pm
nrkii

Atalante, mine's done that a few times recently
12:17 pm
Vicuna

You mean when you crick it and the shooting pains go all everywhere? I HATE that!

they are related to chitons then?
1:13 pm
rururocks

I am going to have to read up on them.. I don't think I have ever seen one diving out here on the West Coast.
1:16 pm
Atalante

no lol. they aren't really related to much. they really are a separate little bunch ... probably the next group "down" from the real vertebrates. read up on them, it's fascinating.
1:17 pm

That's cause the water's too damn cold

nm chitons can't be related.. we have some types of tunicates out here, but they are attached to rocks and are tiny.

Ata? When you write your papers do you use a style guide? If so, which one?
4:12 pm
Atalante

not any more. I followed my PhD supervisors guidance originally, but guidelines really depend on which journal you're writing for
4:16 pm
BabbleRabble

I have come across some articles recently that talked about making science more interesting to non-scientists by changing the way the papers are written
4:17 pm
Atalante

I think there are 2 types of scientific paper. And this is what scientists work towards - you write a few scientific papers in obscure journals, and then write a popular science version for something like Sci American or Nature or the newspapers
4:18 pm
BabbleRabble

Science Today has articles I sometimes understand .. I think
4:19 pm
Atalante

lol. unfortunately, some things just don't work as popular science
4:19 pm
elemce2

Is there a te 5/12?
4:20 pm
Atalante

it's really nice to say they all should do, but they just dont. I couldn't write about the details of fish cladistics without first explaining the concepts behind cladistic analysis etc etc. To just write "cladistics is a mathematical way of analysing relationships" is possible, but that's dumbing down
4:20 pm
Atalante

yep
4:22 pm
BabbleRabble

I mention it because science is so important .. especially now with so many environmental and food issues ... the world needs top people to find solutions
4:24 pm

this article is rather shocking to me: http://tinyurl.com/ycysjzh

absolutely. it is ... the world is so screwed, but it's so important to see reality from hype
4:29 pm
BabbleRabble

the reality for me is that too many Americans think being the number 1 or 2 polluter and the number 1 consumer as their birthright ... absolute hogwash but hard to combat
4:29 pm
Atalante

yep! ditto in China
4:30 pm
redturtlehead

I'm with you Atalante. I like to read Science and Nature. there are definitely some scientific articles that I dont want to read, but I think are important for others in the profession to read. but, there are so many who wont even read nature or National Geographic.

6:01 pm
dcseain

he's frustrated, as it hurts, and his gradient and flow have not changed as yet when invoked according to the echo
6:03 pm
DR1965

could the non change be due to surgical swelling? _ I have no clue- just have had lots of suregery
6:03 pm
Nef

He looks pretty chipper in the pictures; although if I was his nurse I wouldn't let him look that rumpled and let you take a picture of him like that!
6:04 pm
dcseain

he's been in a good mood all-in-all. And i have no pity for the pain, as he's not using the lipoderm
6:04 pm
Nef

when was his surgery? (trying to figure out if he should still have enough swelling to cause that)
6:05 pm
Uneaixoise

wow, very stoic, seain
6:05 pm
dcseain

a week ago thursday, the 24th
6:05 pm
dcseain

stoic?
6:05 pm
DR1965

then i do not pity the pain either! I have had lots of surgery and htey give you pain meds because it hurts!
6:05 pm
dcseain

ah. i'm sympathetic, and i'll suggest the lipoderm again to him.
6:05 pm
Uneaixoise

good mood but not taking pain meds?
6:05 pm
dcseain

exactly, dr
6:05 pm
Uneaixoise

seems pretty stoic to me! :-)
6:06 pm
dcseain

he has chronic pain, une, so this pain is more concentrated
6:06 pm
Nef

he will feel better and move better if he uses the pain meds more now this soon after surgery
6:06 pm
Uneaixoise

oohhh, ok
6:06 pm
dcseain

i know, nef, and so should he. I'll remind him :)
6:06 pm

but so far, so good, right/

and, no, it's not wussy taking pain relief! :P
6:07 pm
Bugsaw

seain, tell him he is only supposed to resist painkillers if he just had a baby and is nursing. Otherwise, the pain meds will help him relax and heal quicker.
6:07 pm
DR1965

LOL- nice Bugs
6:08 pm
Bugsaw

Does he still look like a Simpson with all the orange paint?
6:09 pm
Nef

The sooner he's up moving around the better he will be. The pain meds allow him to move better this soon after surgery. By holding off on them it slows his healing down
6:09 pm
dcseain

will do bugsaw
6:09 pm
KatieMcG

well that was uplifting (not!)
6:09 pm
dcseain

he's moving lots, nef, that's not an issue

6:10 pm
DR1965

CAR!!! How are you???
6:11 pm
Nef

Here's my pain scale I used on my pts. 1-3 is distracible pain (you forget about it while oding things; but are aware of it if not distracted). 4-6 is pain you can't be distracted from; you can still eat, visit, watch TV, but are aware the pain is still there. 7-10 pain is shut up, give me drugs, leave me alone! (You can't DO stuff at all) You want to keep the pain less than 4-5
6:12 pm
dcseain

for him, 7 is distractible, but his usual levels would be a 3 to most people, i'm sure, so his view is skewed
6:12 pm

Is this surgery designed to relieve him of pain levels that high, seain? I sure hope so
6:15 pm
Nef

Seain, tell him to ONLY consider the surgical pain, not whatever his chronic pain is
6:15 pm
dcseain

no, bugsaw. this surgery was to relieve his hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy
6:16 pm
KatieMcG

6:16 pm
dcseain

6:16 pm
dcseain

6:17 pm
Bugsaw

I feel so badly for people who must live whith chronic pain. I admire their persistence and good humour when I would probably be rolled up into the fetal position

6:36 pm
Eva

we babblers all know that woot is indeed a word! also wooted!
6:36 pm
Jacula

Just wondring now if my lag is due to the fact that I used a pic straight off the net rather than downloading it and taking it from my pc.
6:36 pm
dcseain

indeed, eva
6:36 pm
dcseain

and noted about the exam, Nef
6:36 pm
Jacula

Eva - I thought that about 'woot', too.:-)
6:37 pm
Eva

is it you who always says that Jac? Or someone else.
6:37 pm
Nef

maybe they consider woot a noun, it IS a website (woot.com)
6:38 pm
redturtlehead

0.75 C fine chopped onion, 3 cloves garil minced, 1/8 C hot peppers, chopped an mostly seeded, 6 fresh tomatoes, rough chopped. Brief saute of onion/garlic/peppers, add tomatoes, cook until tomato caramelizes. Deglaze with juice of one lemon, let cook more. Add 1 C pasta water, toss with pasta and 1/2 C grated cheese. Spicy, but not too much so.
6:44 pm
DR1965

I am amused because my boss said to me just today " Wow! You love your commas." as she was erasing them
6:44 pm

I'll probably sleep on the sofa tonight.
7:11 pm
Atalante

I tried to persuade him that if he spent all day yesterday playing on his playstation, he could probably manage to work today. but no. "best to be careful" he says
7:11 pm
BabbleRabble

I see ... I have a word for that
7:11 pm
redturtlehead

If he has it he'll be sick like the regular flu for about 8 days, then pretty much get over it. and Sofa a good idea. He might want to get the nasty tamiflu since it started suddenly.
7:11 pm
Jacula

Better not climb into bed with stepdaughter as she's a bit miffed at us for daring to watch Autumnwatch on TV together without informing her.
7:11 pm

I don't care what she was asking them to do. Double negatives are a HUGE pet peeve of mine!I hate them!
7:42 pm
dcseain

double negatives go back as fare as Beowulf in English. They are VALID in English. The late 19th century latinate grammarians disliked them.
7:43 pm
dcseain

English mostly prefers to avoid them, but they are permissible. In her case, it was emphatic
7:43 pm

Ah, didn't read it properly, too long as a proof reader who's been disappointed by so-called writers. I hate double-negatives, too. I must have edited your post as I read it.

Min - but the thing about the English language is that it's only so rich and versatile because it keeps growing and changing. So, though pedants like you and I (or is that you and me?) keep railing at the changes, the changes still occur.

feather - that's a bit like me talking/reading. My natural accent leads me to say bath rather than barth, grass rather than graas etc., but when reading out, unless the context is ther in the accent of the area, I tend to go for the vut-glass Southern UK vowel sound. No idea why.
7:54 pm

Oh, and a word of advice, Min - don't let your man drag you down. My first tried it and didn't succeed. My kids may wonder what I'm going to do or say next, but they will say I never let them down. They'll also say I never pretended to be superhuman, that I had faults and admitted to them and that I was a superhuman walking dictionary without which they wouldn't know half of the things they know now, despite their university education(s).

Are you just discovering this now Jacula or have you been thinking about it for awhile? Jacula, if you just discovered it now,then you should ask stepdaughter about it. Maybe ask your other half what you should do.However,that's a tough one to call though Jacula.

Hello regis! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid!

8:37 pm
Minveryork

Both de7/44 words are a past tense of de6/27 words
8:37 pm
BlueAndAmy

because if she ever has friends over, you could sit her down as if you're confiding in her that you are concerned one of her friends might have taken it, and ask her what she thinks you should do... maybe if it appears you're instilling that much trust in her that it would never occur to you that she might have taken it, it'll motivate her to confess or at least it might "mysteriously" re-appear

8:45 pm
Minveryork

Remember Jacula that she is your stepdaughter NOT your friend. Proove her wrong about being cool and laid back, otherwise she'll just take advantage of you
8:46 pm
BlueAndAmy

well, maybe you could set up either your webcam or something to unquestionably "catch" her in the act, then confront her.... but that runs a big risk of making her angry, not solving the real problems, etc. You could replace the $ inside with a compassionate note of some kind, hope to appeal to the little girl that's still in her, something like "if you need money, I wish you'd come to your father and me and talk to us about it..." ... or again, maybe i'm being naive...?
