*implosion
2:30 am
rubyfoo

yes, we had a big fight, exchanged harsh words, and all because the dog escaped AGAIN and he wouldn't help me get her back, was too busy with raking spent flowers, feeding fish, etc.
2:30 am
jillibus

he seems to get angry very easily
2:30 am
rubyfoo

yes, increasingly as he gets even older! lol
2:30 am
jillibus

sigh!
2:31 am
jillibus

well, I should leave you to get dressed and I should get undressed and go to bed, lol!
2:31 am

4:04 am
MVA

it's all right if i don't stand up straight !!
4:04 am
rubyfoo

mine was inflamed many many years ago and I ate no meat or fats for about 6 months, mostly sushi, and it cleared up without surgery. My mother diagnosed it over the phone!!!
4:04 am
rubyfoo

oh, poor mva!!!
4:04 am
sandyloo

did you lose weight then ruby (or are you skinny anyway)
4:04 am
MVA

i caneat sushi, i like it, don't care for vegemite though!
4:05 am
rubyfoo

the sushi regime really helped and, fortunately, I was living in NY at the time, so it was available. Here, I'd have to blow myself up!
4:05 am
sandyloo

lol, it is a very australian thing, I don't know of any foreigners that like vegemite (we in Aus are raised on it of course)
4:05 am

I'm skinny but lost some weight then

4:07 am

Vegemite is like marmite but has a savoury taste where marmite has a sweet taste
4:07 am

4:07 am

I've never had either one, more of a butter and jam on toast gal

4:08 am
rubyfoo

we have friends who live near Denby, but I think that's north.....
4:08 am
MVA

i was thinking that i'd be a touch adventurous and toast and jam for lunch
4:08 am
rubyfoo

I love jam - with cheese, with bread, with yoghurt. Mostly homemade but there is one kind in the stores that is wonderful, reines claude, green plums!!!
4:09 am
sandyloo

my favourite jam is home made fig jam
4:09 am

denby is much further north, we live on the welsh side of the Bristol channel

Very well, nicely cool, think Winter is on its way well and truly. How are you? are you airlines still grounded?
4:58 am
Haz1558

I'm well. Yes, I think they were to be grounded over some UK and Irish airspace for a period starting today. They were off yesterday for a while and then started up again. It's all quite unsettling!
4:59 am
Haz1558

Meanwhile, there are still people stranded abroad from the first disruption. I can see stowing away on ships becoming an ever more inviting prospect for some.

It is nice to see fashion that isn't rediculous
8:42 am

with 2 kids and hanging out at ball fields - fashion is not at the top of my vocabulary right now
8:42 am

herinfernallady

Momn I mean pretty skirts and jumpers things that real people would wear

herinfernallady

o that too.
8:45 am

So do i. but I am losing weight due to having a horrid cold and that i can afford to do
8:51 am

8:53 am
herinfernallady

My best friends misses got asked if she is having twins. She is due in October and she is already huge :D
8:56 am
Riverdance

thats pretty rude. I hated that when I was pregnant when someone would ask if I was due soon and it was months away. Some woman pop early while others dont.
8:56 am
herinfernallady

Well in her case it is fairly cute and cool as I think 2 of her co workers are also pregnant due around the same time.
8:57 am
herinfernallady

So there has been baby bump comparision
8:57 am
Riverdance

when I was pregnant for my daughter, there were 13 of us pregnant at the same time in an office of 60. The big boss was in a panic.
8:58 am

10:13 am
Riverdance

I do and love that game too. Thats how I heard about this one. Been playing wordsplay for a couple years now.
10:14 am
Krysten

No, never heard of it...I play Wordtwist though.
10:14 am
peabody

Do you play the 4x4 or 5 board
10:14 am
guernseygirl

wordsplay's a boggle game against the clock. that's how i came to this one as well, Mom.
10:15 am

I havent seen you on wordsplay guernsey - do you go by the same name
10:15 am

I'm Gambit0405 (also my pogo name) and play 4 boards.
10:15 am
peabody

I heard about this from MNH on the chat and came in and am hooked. I play both - like the 5 better
10:15 am
guernseygirl

i've been doing much better since i started babble, but the dictionaries are different
10:16 am
guernseygirl

which can be annoying
10:16 am
peabody

I know it drives me crazy here when I try and put in a word that wordsplay accepts but this one doesn't. I'm skiz on wordsplay
10:16 am
Riverdance

i started on 5 but my scores stink - so switched to 4 months ago and can usually get into the top10
10:17 am
Riverdance

I dont find the people there as friendly. I won a couple games last week and not one person said congrats. I also cheer on the winners.
10:18 am
Krysten

Does anyone here play on Pogo?
10:18 am
peabody

I know - they seem to ignore any new person that gets to the top. Same thing happened to me I tied with someone for first place and they cheered them.
10:19 am
guernseygirl

i gave up on the chat for all the same reasons. must try wordtwist Krysten
10:19 am

me too. I love backgammon, word whomp and poppit.
10:22 am
Krysten

It can be free with lots of great games or you can join the club for a fee which gives you more games and more access to game rooms.
10:23 am
Krysten

I usually go in cycles as to which games I play. Babble helped me finish the boggle game there!

Boobear

oh my. I bet she was glad to have a little break
11:04 am
Boobear

I bet he is cute
11:04 am
Merk

No, she was not ready to go back. She nurses him and I will vouch for the fact that you have to give them some practice with a bottle before Momma leaves.
11:05 am
Merk

He will not starve to death because Momma is home by noon, but he cries thru the whole experience when I try to feed him.
11:05 am

But he's a doll.

1:34 pm
Barb's Horses

1:38 pm
pugmama763

including my daughter
1:38 pm
Soodlebum

It was just myself I was referring to as a maniac... Absolutely no offence intended.
1:39 pm
Barb's Horses

there is nothing wrong with being a Wiccan from what i know they are very pleasant people...it is Hollywood that gave them such a bad rap..and Salem of course but then people were afraid of what they didn't know
1:39 pm
pugmama763

not offended ,it's just a common fiction in our society
1:40 pm
Barb's Horses

hi pugmama

2:14 pm
stidmama

taking a short break from editing a peer's papers. Wow. It's harder to do than I expected (would be easier if I didn't know her so well -- don't want to hurt feelings), and it's a great start, but not "done" yet.
2:15 pm
stidmama

brb, Lucky is apparently DESPERATE!~
2:15 pm
Vicuna

st7 - start with a road, don't double vowel but do double final letter, add the extra vowel back on the end; diff final vowel for other st7
2:17 pm
jmcnrick

2:17 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Vicuna

st4/5 - how you get to the second floor
2:22 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Duh.
2:22 pm
stidmama

and no jmc, I thought long and hard about what her essential points were, highlighted those for her, suggested eliminating redundancies, bringing together each point in a single place (rather than scattered throughout), eliminating un-necessary qualifiers and transition words, and making the paper active rather than passive voice.
2:23 pm
stidmama

(that's the short version of what I did)
2:23 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Need st7/37 and te6/18 for fireworks
2:23 pm
Kaplan the Magne

MadXSer

Is the te6 part of the male anatomy?
2:24 pm
Vicuna

2:24 pm
Kaplan the Magne

2:36 pm
lawyer-1

how far from Seattle?
2:36 pm
stidmama

about an hour south, lawyer
2:36 pm
lawyer-1

What is the date?
2:36 pm
stidmama

I know. the "affordability" factor keeps me from running over and having a babble meetup in the netherlands, too. :-(
2:36 pm
stidmama

August 21
2:37 pm
stidmama

jmc is coming -- the date is on her schedule! and pini, and a bunch of folks from BRitish Columbia, too!!!

2:38 pm

2:38 pm
stidmama

I will actually be on actual vacation in August, could perhaps drive up for a mini-meet up if you wanted.
2:38 pm
lawyer-1

no...going to visit new grandchald who is due to arrive in June
2:38 pm
stidmama

go sprite go! (there are TENS?)
2:38 pm
PAV3

how thoughtful and nice to be invited Stid...if I'm still at my current job, most likely not a trip I can make as Juy & Aug are my busy months and I'm restricted from travelling or engaging in risky behavior, lest I become incapacitated and unable to complete our budget. I'm valuable enough for them to worry about, but not enough to pay well....
2:38 pm
sprite

oh and all 9s. This is a first! (ok they weren't hard, I know)
2:39 pm
stidmama

that stinks too, PAV. wanted, but not "valued" (are you a teacher? rofl)
2:39 pm
sprite

they should really reward you better then, PAV!
2:40 pm
PAV3

I'm the lowest paid CFO in AZgov't...
2:40 pm
stidmama

Arizona??? gah. in AUGUST? (double gah)
2:40 pm

2:41 pm

how nice, lawyer, about the grandbabe
2:41 pm

I don't have ANY 9s. or 10s. *sigh*
2:41 pm

wtg stiddie :) Now slap it!
2:41 pm

Arizona...land of the immigrant
2:41 pm
sprite

they are all gerunds
2:41 pm
stidmama

didn't realize you were so venerable, lawyer! what a wonderful reason to travel!
2:41 pm
PAV3

I will keep on the burner a day trip perhaps, fly in and back, if I should also be handsomely rewarded
2:41 pm
stidmama

LOL sprite!
2:42 pm
lawyer-1

it's number 10....number 11 is due in Oct., but that's a local product
2:42 pm
sprite

if I were there, I'd hug you personally, PAV
2:42 pm
PAV3

yes, all my friends are invited to visit us here in AZ...bring your guns, no permits required for concealed weapons, but don't forget your ID and birth certificate, and English translator
2:42 pm
stidmama

??? 11 grandbabies? wow... that's a lot of birthday cards!
2:42 pm
sprite

wow, 10 so far, you are rich, lawyer
2:43 pm
lawyer-1

si, Pav
2:43 pm
stidmama

no hablo stupidese, PAV. I can't even THINK of going somewhere that mean-spirited.
2:44 pm
lawyer-1

that's why I stay out of court, stid
2:44 pm
stidmama

yep. me too. (hides from mean people)
2:45 pm
PAV3

yes, so my eldest sis calls me the weekend after the legis was signed and asked if I was safe? we were born and raised in MI, though I do have a "green card" (my certif of LIVE birth)
2:45 pm
stidmama

my concern is based on family history... the way the fascists got it all started in Europe. Very scary. Very very very scary.
2:45 pm
lawyer-1

My 2 eldest kids were born in Canada. I am warning them to avoid AZ
2:47 pm
PAV3

yep...we're the second coming of Nazi-ism ,evidently...I tell peeps not come if you can;t stand the heat...used to be a kitchen joke...
2:48 pm
stidmama

part of me wants to be crazy and go down there without any identification, and refuse to speak English -- french, spanish, german... but not English. And see what they do. But since I look northern European...
2:48 pm
stidmama

but then, I am a wimp. and I don't have the time or the money right now. But I am really that angry.
2:49 pm
lawyer-1

Just wait until I sell all of my AZ real estate holdings. That will bring their economy down!
2:50 pm
stidmama

LOL lawyer! that would work. for now, I will just not purchase things that are made in Arizona.
2:50 pm
stidmama

which is not good for you, PAV, of course. The problem, with boycotts is that innocent people are hurt first.
2:50 pm
lawyer-1

and I won't vote for McCain
2:50 pm
PAV3

years ago, here in my own condo complex, where I am on the HOA board, I was called a "wetback wannabe' because of my 'relaxed' dressing on my days off...I thanked them and told them to keep their pets leashed at all times and went about my business...they eventually moved
2:51 pm
Nancy Boy

have I missed something big? ...what's happening in AZ?
2:51 pm
PAV3

I haven't voted for McCain yet...
2:51 pm
stidmama

wow. I can't even imagine being treated that way. I would have found some rattlesnake poop and put it through their mailslot...
2:51 pm
sprite

hiya Nancy Boy :)
2:51 pm
stidmama

hey NB. they're being mean to people.
2:51 pm
lawyer-1

u better stay away from there, NB
2:52 pm
lawyer-1

u r a ferener
2:52 pm
stidmama

oooh! down to 55! listless! but still no 9s or 10s.
2:52 pm
PAV3

Boy, you've missed th news? AZ passed a STATE law making it "illegal to be in the country illegally"
2:52 pm
Nancy Boy

*mwah**mwah* for Stid and Sprite ;)
2:52 pm
sprite

stiddie, go go gooooo
2:52 pm
Nancy Boy

lol Lawyer. I'm a foreigner here!
2:53 pm
Nancy Boy

wow, Pav - why?!
2:53 pm
sprite

but not on babble you aren't, Nancy Boy
2:53 pm
PAV3

and I emphasized the STATE because immigration is a federal purview...
2:53 pm
lawyer-1

NB...you must be the original man without a country
2:53 pm
stidmama

*sends hugs to Leo, too*
2:53 pm
Nancy Boy

got that Sprite ;)
2:53 pm
sprite

and hi to Leo, indeed
2:54 pm
stidmama

Nancy Boy, you -- and PAV -- and all of us -- ought to be considered at home where you are. As a protest to the essentialization of people, I refuse to answer the census "race" question with anything but "human."
2:54 pm
PAV3

we have too many idiots who feel the immigrants have taken over and the feds can't/won't control our border
2:54 pm
sprite

yayyyy for stiddie!
2:54 pm
Nancy Boy

I guess so, Lawyer. I'm not English but I'm definitely not Korean, especially now that I don't have any family connections there anymore. I never thought about this! I'm drifting around on this huge planet!
2:55 pm
stidmama

and there are federal laws that are enforceable. The Arizona law just goes too far in my opinion, making it a requirement for police officers (not federal agents) to report and arrest people they "suspect" to be in the U.S. without permission.
2:55 pm
sprite

born: yes / sex: selective but intensive / race: human
2:55 pm
lawyer-1

Well, stid, there are those who say I am not a member of that race
2:55 pm
PAV3

NB - you a re at home where your heart is...that applies to me as well, Since my younger bro banished me from my home in Albuq...but never fear, he have his come uppance one of these days...
2:55 pm
stidmama

except for one small slice of my heritage, I am not native to the United States... and because I am a "mutt" I don't belong anywhere else either.
2:56 pm
sprite

*reaches out and pulls Nancy Boy right into Babble land*
2:56 pm
stidmama

PAV, and Nancy Boy, and everyone: you are all my kin, and you are all welcome here. Just not all at once (please) *eyes 10x12 foot living room sadly*
2:57 pm
Nancy Boy

true that, Pav...well, we people banished from our homes must stick together :)
2:57 pm
PAV3

10x12 ? that's two bedrooms and a dinette!!!
2:57 pm
sprite

*seconds stid*
2:57 pm
stidmama

and with that, I must return my kinship with the students of the world and get back to work... *sigh*
2:58 pm
stidmama

except in summer -- if it's not raining, our acre might be enough to hold a decent party!
2:58 pm
sprite

go for it, stiddie, and *hugs* to you
2:58 pm
PAV3

thanks Stid!...I'll keep Aug date on the calndar just in case
2:59 pm
stidmama

(((((sprite))))) be well, be excellent, be happy. my thoughts are with you every day, that you will soon be painfree and able to get around in comfort.
2:59 pm
sprite

aw thanks stid!
2:59 pm

It sure was Scrabbs. A course of antibiotics cured the infection. the dentist said he could save the tooth for approx €1,800, or extract it for €80, so I said Bye bye tooth!
4:58 pm
Scrabbler

This is a big molar so I cannot say goodbye to it. I hope it can be fixed simply, if it caused by a cracked filling or tooth or cavity. I hope I do not need a root canal and crown= mega-bucks!

Anyhow, I had a good day today because my student was away. Yesterday he was miserable and today he was sick so I guess there is a correlation between attitude and illness.
6:23 pm
stidmama

you are all in my heart. My first was a long labor, the second very short. I hope mrs dan will have a (relatively) pleasant and easy labor. Expect her to be a bit grumpy in the process....
6:24 pm
stidmama

oh gee, bugs, that's too bad for the kid, but glad you had a quieter day. I am not a terrific student when I am ill, either.
6:25 pm
Bugsaw

I gave my notice that I would not be able to work with him again next year because I am burning out. I feel so much better for having said it.
6:26 pm

Bugsaw

thanks stid. I have been agonizing over it for months but he is SO needy and his family is not at all supportive of anything we do for him. I can't continue to be undermined daily and he has met all of the goals I set for him last year.
6:28 pm
Bugsaw

He doesn't know yet that I won't be his worker next year but I want to wait until they have someone else lined up.
6:28 pm

The pr7/32 time is 10:39. I have just ig6/24 my FWs so here is my story of cl5/14 for today.I hope you're good sl 7/36 when finding the words.Today I started my second as a te 6/18. Students in New York state started their second week of te 7/36.Last week the students had the ELA, this week they take the math te 4/4.Te 6/18s are tired of getting ready for these te5/10. Some of them are starting to pu 4/6 over all the te 4/4 prep. In February they were all pr7/32ed and took a pr7/32 to see how they were doing. They didn't do well then so I hope they do better this time Teachers told the students if they got a good night's re4/4 and they tried their be4/6,then that's all that matters.Some students get so nervous that their pu 5/14 starts to rae. Te 7/36 pu 4/6 some students in a bad mood & they start to re6/18 school. I te4/4ed 6th grade.At one point the fire alarm went off & the students le4/5 out of their seats.It turned out to be a false alarm.Te7/36 also effects teachers. I haven't sl5/12 much either because of the te5/10s.But I try not to be too st 5/10 with students because they're under enough pressure. After this week, te 7/36 will be over 'til they have to be re6/18 again next Spring But te4/4 prep will start again in Se4/5ember.I hope this story gave you a cl 4/6 about words in the grid. I am going to go jump into my sh5/12 & watch tv for the re4/4 of the ni 4/4 with my two pe 4/5. Adios all!
