Something I'll never repeat.
12:52 am
joshuavorbis

one of these days i'll try that, i think
12:52 am
J. C.

Erm, I don't recommend it - seriously, it was a horrible experience from start to finish. Especially the finish!
12:53 am
J. C.

I had lovely bruises for a while after...
12:53 am
joshuavorbis

your experience is one of several in the negative among people i have met
12:53 am
joshuavorbis

there have been a lot more positive opinions, though
12:53 am
J. C.

I'll bet...
12:53 am
J. C.

I was terrified, I don't mind telling you.
12:54 am
joshuavorbis

it's ok to be terrified. i experienced pure terror on a ride at the state fair last autumn
12:54 am
J. C.

I had to just do it without thinking - if I thought about it I wasn't going through with it. I knew that!
12:55 am

3:02 am
jillibus

so did I -- don't know what happened this time
3:02 am
westford

is it your computer or your server?
3:02 am
VolleymomDee

frustrating I am sure
3:03 am
jillibus

not my computer -- I was able to do lots of other stuff, just not online. The connection was kaput.
3:04 am
westford

3:04 am
westford

how are you connected? phone line, dsl, cable?
3:04 am
jillibus

3:09 am
jillibus

I have an elderly friend who only recently was given a TV and has no idea how useful a computer is. She phoned yesterday so pleased that she had found some info about a plant I'd mentioned in a book her "mamma" had owned -- and of course there was much more info available via Google but she had no clue about that. I thanked her politely and didn't let on. She's younger than I am, btw, but lives in the 19th century.
3:09 am
VolleymomDee

funny how some folks are like that
3:10 am
jillibus

she didn't even want the TV -- perfectly happy with the radio, and I think only listens to the CBC.
3:11 am
westford

my mother has been using the computer for years her younger sister just got on line but still doesn't have the hang of it..too bad because my mother can't talk on the phone and auntie has trouble walking
3:11 am
westford

could have been a great way for them to keep in touch
3:12 am
jillibus

well, maybe the younger sister will get the hang of it
3:12 am
westford

I hope so
3:12 am
jillibus

3:51 am
hurshy

haz, you're sensible. do you ever have dreams and then when you wake up, no matter how much rational stuff you tell yourself, they continue to affect you emotionally?
3:52 am
jillibus

hello, hursh -- I've had that
3:52 am
rubyfoo

hurshy, do you remember many of your dreams?
3:52 am
Haz1558

Yes, I do. But eventually I manage to convince myself that it was a dream.
3:52 am
hurshy

that makes me feel better. thanks.
3:53 am
hurshy

yes ruby, rather. in fact i take sleeping meds and without them sometimes it feels like i'm just costantly dreaming... the meds tone it down.
3:53 am
Haz1558

It's amazing just how much dreams can affect you. There are times when I'm pleased to waken up.
3:53 am
rubyfoo

sometimes the sad ones linger but other times th wonderful ones do, too.
3:54 am
rubyfoo

I take Xanax at night to assuage the free-floating angst and it gives me wonderful dream, frequently "starring" TV actors
3:54 am
hurshy

i have an easier time with the ones that make me feel pleased to wake up than the ones that make me feel like i wish i hadn't woken up.
3:54 am
Haz1558

The strangest dreams I ever had was when I was taking anti-malarial drugs. One dream that stood out was my fury that a shop wouldn't sell me a crossstitch kit.
3:54 am
jillibus

Hooray!! Halfway plus!!! Now I can go to bed :)
3:54 am
rubyfoo

sometimes I try to go back to sleep to re-capture the dream
3:54 am

a couple of nights ago I dreamt about a boyfriend from about 30 yrs ago. How weird is that?
3:59 am
Haz1558

It fascinates me that so much memory is kept stored in your brain - things you thought you had forgotten.
4:00 am
hurshy

not weird - that's the kind i just woke up from

I love this grid!
4:06 am
Haz1558

I suppose you're talking root canal treatment, unless it's in a place where it could be extracted without missing it?
4:06 am
Soodlebum

Thank goodness it is right at the back, Haz - and it will be gone by about 4.45!! Never to give me grief again.
4:08 am
Haz1558

Great! I had a similar situation, though without the pain, it was just the start of an abcess on a crowned tooth. Dentist took it out, and investigated later to find that the root was as crooked as could be and would have been impossible to work with.
4:09 am
Soodlebum

Best be off and do stuff. Thanks for the clues. Bye
4:09 am

Bye, Soodle, all the best for this afternoon.

Good morning, Merk.
5:39 am
Merk

really ... that hasn't hit me yet. I loved earlier ones, but I'm not 'into' this one yet.
5:39 am
Haz1558

The grid is a little tougher than yesterday, in that there are more unusual words, but it's still fun.
5:40 am

Back, was just paying cleaning lady.

Hi Merk.
5:41 am

god my mrs would love a cleaning lady..who knew our little fm,lady of the manor;)) hehe

Haz, meant to ask is all the decorating done now as you were waiting for some extra rolls of wallpaper?
5:45 am
crosshair

she is 72,can still run her own house but tubs,windows and shower and floors are hard for her now
5:45 am
Haz1558

I'm still waiting for that extra roll! It's to come from America, I suppose that explains the delay.
5:46 am
FMitch

Tsk, what a pain Haz.
5:47 am
crosshair

crossy hates doing wallpaper,matching the patterns gets me foaming at the mouth
5:47 am
Haz1558

Just two strips to do - one above the door, of about nine inches, the other at the side of the washing machine. Otherwise, the only other thing to do is to change the light but that may involve an electrician - still waiting for husband to test out how complicated it is.
5:48 am
FMitch

my messages are disappearing :( either that or there is a lag issue with the log.
5:48 am
Haz1558

crossy, this particular wallpaper was a nightmare to match. A drop of 21 inches and a tiny pattern that deceived you into thinking you had got it and then, wham, it's out further down.
5:49 am
Haz1558

The annoying thing is that once up, everyone thinks it's a no-match wallpaper. But I am pleased with it.
5:49 am
FMitch

Ah there we are, it was lag.
You do enjoy a challenge dear!
5:50 am
Haz1558

As long as it doesn't involve sewing!
5:50 am

5:52 am

6:19 am
rubyfoo

I think I just got a spider bite, in the house, before I went in the garden
6:19 am
rubyfoo

very cool
6:20 am
Trifioso

oh, ruby, watch that carefully! I got so sick from a spider bite once, I was in hospital x 2 days!
6:20 am
rubyfoo

I used to live about 1 1/2 hrs from Corning, so got to see their blown glass both in process and in the museum. It is a beautiful but slightly scary art form!
6:20 am
rubyfoo

what kind of spider as it, do you know?
6:21 am
Trifioso

I think as long as he remembers not to inhale, he'll be okay. Seriously, inhaling that wicked hot air can do you a mischief.
6:21 am
Trifioso

I don't know exactly, but judging from the reaction at the site and my illness, they are guessing a brown recluse
6:21 am

I guess no one heard me - Good Morning Everyone

there is a European garden spider, Argiope, which has yellow, white, brown, black and orange in stripes and spots. Some years the females get really big and I feed them flies. The indoors spiders are not pretty, don't make webs, jump, and I squish them!

6:30 am
rubyfoo

the antihistamine is two flights awya, if that is what you mean, and when I take a break, I'll trek on up
6:31 am
crosshair

if you feel faint,take 3 shots of whiskey,tie a rope around your arm and dial the emerg for a pick up:)
6:32 am
rubyfoo

my sole exercise is stairs; I must go up and down 50 flights a day!
6:33 am
rubyfoo

the only thing poisonous here is vipers, but I've not seen one. I learned on Sunday that the local foxes come into my next door neighbor's yard IN THE DAYTIME! Isn't that wonderful?
6:34 am
crosshair

we are good here in that regard.i do not envy our aussie friends though.all those little deadly spider and snakes
6:35 am
crosshair

we get lots of foxes ruby,but you are right.if we see one in the daytime,we know there is a problem
6:35 am
crosshair

last one we saw moving around in mid day had rabies
6:35 am
rubyfoo

why is that a problem?
6:36 am
crosshair

the normally do not roam in mid day
6:36 am
rubyfoo

no kidding! my housekeeper said that, but I thought she was being a bit extreme! Another neighbor feeds them abats from the local abattoir!
6:36 am
rubyfoo

I think they're pretty tame.
6:37 am
crosshair

your hosekeeper is right
6:37 am
crosshair

its like trying to feed wild racoons or bats,all carry the potential for rabies
6:37 am
rubyfoo

there is also a kind of big snake here, called a coulouvre (or something) but it's harmless and I've never seen one, either. Lots of lovely little lizards, though
6:38 am
crosshair

play with the lizards instead
6:38 am
rubyfoo

and there are bats in the cliffs who come down to our fishpond at dusk, lovely little black butterfly-looking creatures
6:38 am
crosshair

best bug remover ever;)
6:39 am
rubyfoo

I suppose they could have rabies, too, tho I never thought of it. One came in the house, but I encouraged it to leave without hurting it (while husband hid in another room)
6:39 am
crosshair

each one can eat its own weight in bugs every night
6:39 am
rubyfoo

I love bats and they eat more than their body weight in insects per day!
6:40 am
crosshair

snap
6:40 am
rubyfoo

too funny, crossy, we must read the same books
6:40 am
crosshair

too many national geographic magazines as a child
6:40 am
rubyfoo

me too
6:40 am
crosshair

and no,i was not looking for the african stories
6:40 am
rubyfoo

and then there's the Bat Conservancy....
6:41 am
rubyfoo

based in Austin where my son lives. There are millions of bats there, living under the main bridge downtown, and as much as I like bats, seeing millions come out at dusk is too much even for me!
6:42 am
rubyfoo

must go, see you later. Very nice chatting with you crossy!
6:42 am
crosshair

my mrs loses her mind when we get a bat in the house
6:42 am
crosshair

tc ruby
6:43 am
rubyfoo

my husband, too. He also gets freaked out when birds wander in but I can usually catch them, inspect them and then carry them outside. I can make them relax in my hand
6:44 am
crosshair

i try not to hold the birds too long,they tend to die in my hands
6:48 am
Trifioso

hey all. back. I am a BIG fan of bats, but not in the house. Outdoors only, please

6:51 am

crossy, was just catching up in the chog - do you really have that problem with birds, or was that a Steinbeck reference?
6:51 am
Boobear

hey Crossy
6:52 am
crosshair

i have 1 or 2 barn swallows in the house a while ago
6:52 am
crosshair

and yes,i have had one die of a heart attack in my hands
6:52 am
crosshair

i use a fishing net nowadays
6:53 am
Trifioso

oh, okay. When we were more active in horse riding, I used to try to save all the little birds that fell out of nests in the barn. Never turned out well. I am starting to really believe the mommas chucked them out, as they could somehow sense they were incompatible with life
6:54 am
crosshair

once they smell your human smell on the babies,it is all over,wife has had some success if she wears no perfumes and uses garden gloves
6:54 am
rubyfoo

birds crash into the kitchen window all the time and one little guy lost his wife that way; she broke her neck and died. For two years after, he would walk into my kitchen looking for her and I would help him make his way back out
6:54 am
Trifioso

I wouldn't put them back in the nests, we would bring them home and try to nurse them here
6:55 am
crosshair

we used to have the window problem and we solved it py placing a few butterfly stickers on the window
6:55 am

hello lynxxx!
6:55 am

howdy lynxx
6:55 am
rubyfoo

usually I wear thin latex gloves because I know that birds can have lice (eeewww) but otherwise, I've never had one die in my hands.
6:56 am
rubyfoo

and getting a good look at them is wonderful, especially since these are all new species for me
6:56 am
rubyfoo

I have, however, disposed of dead ones I've found, but inspect them first also.
6:57 am
crosshair

here we have to inspect all dead crows in springtime and report them
6:57 am
lynxxx

do you draw them Ruby?
6:57 am
Trifioso

do you have to report dead birds you find on your property to the local council?
6:57 am
Trifioso

just crows, crossy?
6:57 am
rubyfoo

I used to draw owls and sell them when I was still exhibiting, but not from life. Usually from photographs or old lithographs
6:58 am
crosshair

just crows
6:58 am
Trifioso

there is an owl you can watch nesting on line, I think...Molly the owl, maybe?
6:58 am

I have tried photographing these birds, but no success so far.
6:59 am

Trifioso

I have probably told you this before, but I can't help repeating, it is so beautiful! We ha a great story in the local paper here about a woman who lost her husband unexpectedly in January. Come April, a heart shaped garden of tulips appeared on her front lawn -- he had planted them back in the fall as a spring surprise for her. She said it was like a valentine from heaven....

the garden, to change the sasd subject, is all in shades of salmon, pink, red, violet and blue with just a little bit of white. I designed it very carefully, but all from books, because it is my first garden.

well, the catalitic converter is serious to the environment, the sub frame may fail any day; and I don't know what happens if you don't have a lugnut on a wheel

lugnut is easy fix
4:21 pm

sheesh you put a 50 cent lug nut on a wheel

depending on yr of car, catalitic converter may not even be necessary (like to be legal)
4:21 pm

(and I don't know what a sub frame or catalytic converter do; but the mechanic said it's going to take lots of time
4:22 pm

the car is a 2002 sedan with 120,000 miles on it. I'm a member of an environmentalist community group (so can't ignore the catalytic converter!); and it's becoming clear to us that DH needs to use his handicapped scooter more. It's a PIA to take the scooter apart and lift it in and out of the car, and we are planning a trip to Montana this summer and hopingI could drive this car there. It isn't going to make it now

I am ba 7/44 out on this grid now,but here's story of clues with some of the words I got so far.When I got home I asked myself if I should be 5/18 babbling with such a big grid. I be 5/18 babbling anyway, although I should have paid some bi 5/14 instead.Even though the grid was big, it didn't put me through the mi 4/5 and it didn't make me mo4/5 & groan like some grids Another grid unfinished; I bl 4/10 my rankings again. My rank has been bl 5/22 for a long time. My job and hubby are not en8/60 me to finish many grids.Hubby makes many gl 4/8 remarks about babble. Hubby is a pa4/4 in the arse whenever I Babble.Babble does not bring a gl 4/10 to his face like mine. He has a bad im 5/16 of Babble and wi4/8 not wa4/9 up to it.He isn't even wi 7/52 to give it a try. He doesn't understand the ma 4/5 concept of Babble. Well I'm no way ne4/4 done with the puzzle, but I'm not bothering to finish because my brain is starting to sl 4/8 down. I wi 4/8 wr 4/9 up this story of clues by saying goodnight to everyone.Enjoy the rest of your nite. See ya manana

my husband is going for a CatScan tomorrow...this is his 3 year of a recheck on his cancer...we are hoping it is still gone...just thoughts or prayers if you are so inclined that all goes well...there is one lymph node they are watching closely
11:50 pm
joey

my good thoughts are going out to you right now. i am very empathetic. had to see the oncologist today
11:50 pm
Barb's Horses

they will watch him for 5 years...although they will never class him as cured as there is no cure for gallbladder cancer. Just hoping it never travels anywhere else
11:50 pm
gremlinn

sorry to hear about your trouble, pippin
11:50 pm
gremlinn

I hope all goes well, Barb
11:50 pm
Bugsaw

not yet, Barb. i am having a problem with my hormone levels and haven't been able to start on an after cancer care program because they can't figure out what i should be on. my lymphedema is more or less under control, now if I could only get my strength and stamina back and the bad taste out of my mouth. my feet still hurt, but other than that i am great!!!
11:53 pm
joey

gremlin, sorry, doesn't do it for me.
11:53 pm
gapeach1066@yaho

Barb's Horses, prayers will be said for him and your family. The energies that this group of people has is awsome.

11:56 pm
pippingeek

yeah, sometimes you just need people around you can just say the stuff to
11:56 pm
cybernan

en 8 -- someone suggested that it is what the babble dictionary does -- personally, I think that clue should have a 'dis' in front of it
11:56 pm
Bugsaw

those guys can be good joey, even if you don't want to get pregnant
11:56 pm
gremlinn

I thought of cluing it that way, but not everyone knows what the dictionary name is
11:57 pm
Barb's Horses

for me that is very true pippin...I always do better when I talk out my thoughts
11:57 pm
pippingeek

not gonna bother with the flip, just need some sleep. did i mention i worked 64 hours last week?
11:57 pm
cybernan

12:00 am
pippingeek
