hi jilli
1:39 am

how was your game?
1:40 am
jillibus

we got the cards -- but what a night for driving there! Thank god that's over!
1:40 am
flosey

oh yes, in the rain, and so dark out there
1:40 am
jillibus

I was so grateful for that GPS!
1:40 am
flosey

I bet you were
1:40 am
jillibus

rain and fog patches too
1:41 am
flosey

oh yes, fog is bad by the lake
1:42 am
flosey

hope she had a bridge table! we played on the diningroom table there, which was a bit of a reach
1:42 am
jillibus

fog was all over the place
1:43 am
flosey

ah, was out this afternoon, but home before supper
1:43 am
jillibus

she had a bridge table but we played in the kitchen -- her hubby was installing a washing machine
1:43 am
flosey

I can hear the fog horns now! hadn't noticed before
1:45 am
flosey

did that create a bit of commotion?
1:45 am
jillibus

but the decks of cards were weird -- either huge numbers and sticky old things, or what we changed to -- regular size cards but ith little stories about Canada instead of the regular dots and pictures
1:45 am
flosey

oh, that is distracting!
1:47 am
flosey

makes you feel like taking a couple of decks with you when you go to some homes!
1:51 am
jillibus

the washing machine thing only lasted a while at the outset -- Jane had been helping -- be we played in the kitchen because hubby was home.
1:52 am
jillibus

*but we played...
1:52 am
flosey

you know, it's funny, I read it as you intended!
1:52 am
flosey

missed the error until you corrected!
1:53 am
jillibus

anyway, AH is over, thank goodness. I've enjoyed playing with Gisela but that'a over too, regrettably.
1:53 am
flosey

oh, is Gisela not playing next year?
1:54 am
flosey

this is my last - and mean it this time
1:55 am
jillibus

oh dear, lol! You know, when I just started on the internet, someone asked me if I wanted to cyber with him. I didn't know what it was, asked a friend, and the friend advised me to say: "Sure, at about 5 am tomorrow morning. If I am not there, start without me."

morning Mr Bob
8:19 am
Anniebrook

annie, I was at Easy Spirit and found a loafer in my odd size, 9 1/2 WW
8:20 am
Anniebrook

I had ordered the shoes on line and was returning them and the store had WW and they did not have it online. I have a terrible time finding shoes that do not hurt.
8:20 am
welki

maybe that player changed his name .. can't find him in 'rankings'
8:21 am
welki

me too, annie.

hi uusue, morning
8:22 am

mornign sue
8:22 am
Anniebrook

sometimes I think I am the only one that has such an awful time finding shoes. My friend told me about a place in the city. I will go in ne4 week or so.
8:22 am
Anniebrook

hi sue
8:23 am
uusue2

Annie, I have a terrible time with shoes also, although my problem is the opposite one - my feet are very long and narrow, and flat.
8:23 am
welki

me, i'm falling apart .. even my feet. plantar fasciitis, achilles tendonitis and heel spurs
8:23 am
Anniebrook

oh dear, welki, I have peripheral neuropathy
8:23 am
sprite

awful, welki :(
8:24 am
welki

BUT ... i'm hoping that things will start improving soon. i've just been diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea. turns out things just can't heal if you're not getting enough oxygen/deep sleep
8:24 am
Anniebrook

welki, there is a store in New York that deals with "problem" feet. Eneslow is the name...perhaps you can buy shoes online
8:24 am
uusue2

glad they found that out, welki!
8:24 am
welki

'course it involves going to sleep looking like an android. next test in a few weeks and then machine shopping
8:25 am
welki

i'll be in jersey in may, may be worth a trip, annie
8:26 am
Anniebrook

welki, it might be worth the trip...they are on Park Avenue South and 32nd Street
8:26 am
Anniebrook

and good luck with the tests, welki
8:27 am
welki

hehe, when i went for my first follow-up (after the home test), the doc looked at me and said, 'i'm REALLY glad you came back' he said that severe OSA is when someone stops breathing over 30 times/hr. i stop an average of 54 times/hr and my O2 levels drop to 62 (average 86 when it should be over 90 - )
8:28 am
welki

had a pulmonary function and blood gas test yesterday .. O2 sats are much better during the day, 93 average
8:28 am
welki

downside is that nothing is covered by insurance, not even on my extended insurance
8:29 am
Anniebrook

welki, now that you are taking charge of your breathing you will start to feel better...
8:29 am
welki

(as she monopolizes the chat)
8:29 am
Anniebrook

welki, crossy has sleep apnea..ask him about insurance coverage (that's a shame it should be covered)
8:30 am
gramma

welki, I wear a snuffleupagus machine at night. It took me a long time to get the right one; but, man is it worth the effort. It's great!
8:30 am
welki

he's in a different province .. one that covers a portion of the testing/equipment
8:31 am
welki

here in alberta, it's soooo dry .. i'd like one with a humidifer
8:31 am
crosshair

machines come in 3 cost levels here 750 for cheap,1400 for mid level and 2200 for top of line.here govt covered 700 and i had to pay 1000,do not get the cheap machine (i stop breathing 40 to 60 times a night without)
8:31 am
welki

he was lurking .. cheeky bugger
8:31 am
Anniebrook

there he is!
8:31 am
welki

alberta health doesn't cover anything
8:32 am
welki

i don't care, though .. i need it, i'll manage and i'll get the best i can. i've been feeling crappy long enough
8:32 am
crosshair

and if you see molly tell her i am sorry fit my comment the other day,had a bad real life day and was uncalled for
8:32 am
sprite

back again, seems I am having trouble with the connection. Hiya crossy!
8:33 am
crosshair

howdy sprite;)
8:33 am
welki

i was looking for you the last couple of days, crossy .. had so many questions
8:33 am
uusue2

crossy, you are a true gentleman :-)
8:33 am
welki

sorry you had a bad day, crossy .. things better now?
8:33 am
crosshair

fighting the good fight;)
8:33 am
Anniebrook

molly is probably in the PB putting away snacks for us all
8:33 am
welki

gramma, what was difficult about finding the right one? the mask? the machine?
8:34 am
Anniebrook

(((crossy))) we heart you
8:34 am
sprite

*hugs* crossy. Nothing like you, and Molly may be around still.
8:34 am
crosshair

fitting is all important welki
8:34 am
welki

(and i love that gramma calls it the snuffleupagus machine ... will save that for when grandkids are around!)
8:34 am
crosshair

i have a full mmask,some prefer a nose mask
8:34 am
uusue2

nbt :-)
8:34 am
crosshair

((annie))
8:35 am
gramma

I have the nose one because they couldn't fit me properly with the full one
8:35 am
crosshair

and the machine setting is critical,mine is set for an 8 on the pressure
8:36 am
welki

i'm doing an in-lab overnighter in a few weeks .. he wants to compare the results of daytime function to the funky stuff that happens at night, says that my charts are so weird as to make him think that my machine needs something more than auto-fine tuning .. he called me "complicated" hahahaha, nothing new
8:36 am
crosshair

and to be honest,my machine and i fight back and forth all night,it is not comfortable for me;(
8:36 am
crosshair

i did lab 3 times
8:36 am
gramma

They all say that. I think it's to justify the expense.
8:37 am
gramma

Me too, crossy
8:37 am
welki

i asked why he just doesn't send me home with an auto-setting until the next sleep study .. he said he wanted to make sure i don't have ANY bad experiences with a machine that may turn me off to using one .... so maybe crossy, you and your machine need to be re-acquainted
8:37 am
crosshair

my risk of heart attack and stroke was too high to do without one
8:38 am
welki

gramma, i thought that too (and to some degree, still do) -- but when he shows you the results, it's hard not to say YES YES YES to any recommendation he makes
8:38 am
crosshair

mine is set correct now welki,it just takes training(on my part)
8:39 am
gramma

No I meant we're all complicated cases.
8:39 am
crosshair

you always need to use the "ramp up" button,it gradually increases the pressure to the setting your dr chose
8:40 am
welki

that's what i meant, too, gramma (we hear "complicated" and jump right on the CPAP bandwagon because we're afraid ... when it really might be a grab for money. i hate thinking like that, though)
8:40 am
uusue2

phantom: lesion
8:40 am
crosshair

correct breathing at night affects you in so many ways,it does not matter,pay him the extra visit
8:40 am
welki

...so will give doc benefit of doubt and consider that, over the years, i have thrown away more money on less
8:41 am
welki

^5 crossy
8:42 am
sprite

and a doctor would be at fault if he did not tell you what he thought, even if it means an extra visit. Benefit of the doubt is a good way to go, i think. It is your health. Nothing can be more important.
8:42 am
crosshair

it also affects ..mmm...intimate performance,and that could not be allowed to continue
8:43 am
uusue2

ah, the ultimate motivation :-)
8:43 am
sprite

quality of life, crossy, very important :)
8:44 am
crosshair

indeed sprite
8:44 am
crosshair

my risk of stroke was increased 52% without it...amazing!
8:46 am
crosshair

so,welki,i know it is 1400 dollars but i recommend the mid level machine,it has a better water resivoir and humidifier than the cheap one
8:47 am
welki

if i came up with the extra 800, would you recommend the most expensive one? why/why not?
8:47 am
crosshair

the most expensive one,just gets smaller and more compact imho
8:47 am
crosshair

half the size and portable
8:47 am
welki

i travel a lot, so maybe it's a possibility
8:48 am
crosshair

they will explain all the machines in detail to you
8:49 am
crosshair

a big choice will me nose mask vs full mask
8:49 am
crosshair

a full mask is an extra 200
8:49 am
welki

i'm on the cancellation list, have an appt scheduled the 21st, but hope to get in earlier
8:49 am
crosshair

but good if your nise stuff up a lot at night
8:50 am
welki

i'm fairly certain we're talking mask mask mask with me ... i want the hannibal lechter model, my husband wants me to get the darth vader

i don't know how they got that way :) but i assume you mean what makes me say that...
12:39 pm
uusue2

well, that is what I was wondering, yes, if you want to share... :-)
12:40 pm
hurshy

they both really need individual counseling as well as marriage counseling, and i was just talking to my dad to try to encourage him to get the help he needs, personally, and he said he told mom that he would go if she did and she said no, so he wouldn't.
12:40 pm
hurshy

and i said, but i don't mean marriage counseling, i just mean help with your depressive tendencies
12:40 pm
uusue2

Ah. So sort of like mine, except mine just totally split.
12:41 pm
hurshy

and he said yeah, that's what he meant. and said, i don't understand. i agree that she needs help also but why should that prevent you from getting help??
12:41 pm
Dorens

my parents went many moons ago and it was fine, until the therapist told my mom she had a couple of things to work on... then she was done
12:41 pm
uusue2

Hmmm. Good question.
12:41 pm
Dorens

hursh, sometimes people don't want to look at their own issues
12:42 pm
hurshy

and he said well even if he goes to individual therapy he can't get anywhere because they want to talk about mom and she won't let him.
12:42 pm
bodz

we arnt all nice people who want to sort things out.. its just life...
12:42 pm
bodz

unfortunately
12:42 pm
hurshy

i said what do you mean she won't LET you?? it's not like you're a toddler trying to touch a hot stove, you can't let her tell you that you can't talk about things in therapy that you need to talk about!!!
12:42 pm
uusue2

Well, if it's individual therapy she doesn't have to know what he's talking about - he doesn't have to lie about it but he doesn't necessarily have to share everything either
12:43 pm
hurshy

yeah but she preemptively says not to talk about her cause she doesn't want other people knowing their problems or something.
12:43 pm
hurshy

and i said well just don't listen when she says that!
12:43 pm
crosshair

yes,he does not have to write a report when he gets home
12:43 pm
uusue2

but that can make it tough, when I was married to my previous husband he raised such a stink about me going to therapy that it eventually was less stressful just not to go
12:43 pm
bodz

pointless going then
12:44 pm
hurshy

and they both basically think that the other one is the one who really needs work, and that they personally are doing everything they can, but the other one isn't.
12:44 pm
uusue2

of course then it eventually dawned on me that it would be even less stressful still just not to be married to him, so I am not. And much happier for it. Although I would not recommend this as a universal solution!
12:44 pm
Dorens

that is fairly typical, you know
12:45 pm
hurshy

"oh, well, *I'D* be willing to do such-and-such, but S/HE is the obstacle"
12:45 pm
hurshy

it's so maddening.
12:45 pm
Dorens

you have no idea how often i hear it from parents of students.. it's tiresome, really
12:46 pm
uusue2

ah, yes. This is not an unusual state to be in; doesn't the therapist have any suggestions for how to make progress? (of course, if they're not interested, that makes it tough!)
12:46 pm
crosshair

wife and i thought that,in our 15th year we needed a few visits,some outside insight in the way things were going and how we can alter things for the better before things get out of hand.small changes at first but it is like pebbles rolling down hill,small things led to big changes
12:46 pm
bodz

my last ex was married 3 times before.. i was with her 6 years.. she is about to marry again... it all seems a bit messed up to me :) life is a strange old game
12:47 pm

i am increasingly staying at home and not dealing with people at all.. just babbling.. safer
12:47 pm

i never married her btw.. and i think i did the right thing
12:47 pm

there isn't a therapist, uusue, that's the problem!
12:47 pm
bodz

i hear you Dorens.. but you never know what or who is around the next corner :)
12:47 pm
uusue2

sounds like, bodz!
12:48 pm
hurshy

BUT my dad did say he had talked to someone before and that guy was helpful and he was planning to talk to him again but they just hadn't got back going again since his almost-dying thing.
12:48 pm
uusue2

I see - so they can't even agree to get started! That IS frustrating, hurshy!
12:48 pm
Dorens

but they're al crazy, bodz and we'll never get along
12:49 pm
hurshy

so, i just encouraged him to be open to what that guy says an suggests, and not to be so unwilling to try medication if it is recommended and stuff like that. i mean i go to counseling and am working on trying to find meds that will help me, so i feel like i have some grounds to say this, experientially.
12:49 pm
uusue2

ok, well, almost dying does tend to distract one :-/
12:49 pm
Dorens

hurshy then it sounds like he will go back to this guy...

12:54 pm

ever have sewer back up welki? i think actually worse than dog poo, and it was real life, not a metaphor
12:55 pm

takes a lifetime.. and tto late by then usually lol
12:55 pm
uusue2

so it sounds like he might be willing to go get help, that is good, hurshy
12:55 pm

oh yes, i've had that happen .. always in summer, always during breezeless hot days
12:55 pm

into each life a little rain will fall... just hope it is never a monsoon!
12:56 pm
hurshy

and the guy who had been his supervisor recently and stressed him out so much and kinda pissed everyone off, and probably contributed to my dad almost dying of this aortic dissection, well this week dad found out that guy will be gone as of may, so that is a big relief too.
12:56 pm

1:45 pm
sciencegeek

1:46 pm
sciencegeek

1:47 pm
Shirlockc

chinese dumplings!
1:47 pm
hurshy

but even in the US dumplings vary a lot. in my house it was basically a biscuit dropped into stew so you didn't have a crusty exterior, but cracker barrel dumplings aren't like that at all.
1:47 pm
Mark Jones

Hi cos!
1:47 pm

Glantarell

1:48 pm
Shirlockc

esp. my mom's dumplings! chinese chives and pork!
1:48 pm
Mark Jones

1/2 for me!
1:49 pm
Kazzer99

chinese dumplings can be like a form of dim sum - wrappers with tasty stuffings
1:50 pm
hurshy

can't anything be a form of dim sum? i thought dim sum was just... a meal made up of miscellaneous chinese foods. like tapas.

Newark airport has these big posts full of outlets, so we can all plug in - I am not running on battery power, so you will all probably be stuck with me until my plane leaves :-)

It's my favorite river Soodle. Did you say you were on a diet? Whatever for? If anything, you're looking way too thin these days.

why do people think statistics and facts do not apply to themselves?
3:53 pm
uusue2

erm, now what, hurshy?
3:54 pm
hurshy

i keep telling my sister how they proved on mythbusters that driving while talking on a cell phone is as dangerous as driving drunk, but she continues to talk on her phone while driving.
3:55 pm
uusue2

true, hurshy, and it doesn't matter much if you have the hands-free option - it's the distraction that does you in
3:55 pm
hurshy

i know, i told her that!
3:55 pm
aslindy

and what about those that text while driving? they are nuts
3:55 pm
Soodlebum

Oh,(((Hurshy))) your family is giving you a lot of grief today.
3:56 pm
hurshy

she said, "how is that different from having a passenger and talking, then?" well, i don't know if it IS, but i would theorize that if the person is WITH you, then if you fail to see something coming, perhaps your passenger notices it and alerts you, so it may somewhat mitigate the distraction to have two of you there watching for things.
3:57 pm
uusue2

exactly, hurshy - the passenger can adjust their interaction with you to external conditions (they will tend to shut up in heavy traffic or whatever)
3:58 pm
hurshy

well, sometimes my family gives me grief, but perhaps i give them grief also!
3:58 pm
uusue2

{{{{{{{hurshy}}}}}}} - sounds like you could use a vacation from your family!
3:58 pm
hurshy

no, i love my sister, i just worry about her.
3:58 pm
hurshy

i love both of my sisters, they are great.
3:59 pm
hurshy

i love my parents too but they can be more exasperating.
3:59 pm
uusue2

I know, hurshy, that's why I suggested a vacation rather than a divorce :-)
3:59 pm
Soodlebum

'Tis the way of the world, Hurshy, 'tis the way of the world!
3:59 pm
hurshy

well the thing is we were talking on skype and she said she would call me from the car because she had to go, and i said not to, and the thing is, she probably will just call someone else!
4:00 pm
hurshy

she gets bored/lonely while driving.
4:00 pm
MollyL

I truly don't get people who use their phone in any way while driving. That's what books on tape are for Hursh.
4:00 pm
uusue2

And believe me, I know what it is to worry - one of the reasons the care of my dad has fallen exclusively on me is that my younger brother and sister are both gone (brother fell off a cliff at age 27, sister died of breast cancer at age 41).
4:00 pm
hurshy

oh my, uusue. that's awful.
4:01 pm
uusue2

So I always tell people to treasure their family (if at all possible); at least you have them around to irritate you!
4:01 pm
MollyL

Oh my God Sue, I'm so sorry to hear that.
4:02 pm
uusue2

It was all a long time ago...
4:02 pm
Soodlebum

Sue, I suggested that to my huxband (a vacation rather than a divorce). back in 2007. He took me up on the offer, vamoosed to Thailand (!!) and I haven't seen him since
4:02 pm
hurshy

yes - when i was talking to my dad today about getting help for depression i was saying how i was so glad and thankful that he didn't die in december and that i don't just want him to be around, i want him to be glad to be around too.
4:03 pm
uusue2

Thailand, eh? Good grief.
4:03 pm
uusue2

Very well put, hurshy! He should listen to you.

Yup, Sue. Apparently he has being doing 'the grand tour' of South East Asia for the past 4 years. (The man is 55, for heavens sake). Now, THATS what I call a mid-life crisis!!

Or both (which would be my tendency)?

I have to wonder about people who just up and run away from their lives. I read a story on the internet yesterday about a Mom who just decided she didn't want to be a full time Mom anymore and turned over custody to their Dad. WHAT?
4:12 pm
GardeNom

ugh parents
4:12 pm
uusue2

too bad she didn't figure that out before actually having kids :-(
4:12 pm
GardeNom

well said
4:13 pm
aslindy

I have always loved my kids... but I'm glad they are grown now
4:13 pm
MollyL

I mean, nobody really knows what they're in for when they have kids. But to just say "I don't wanna play anymore"??????
4:14 pm
uusue2

My son's dad was kind of like that (didn't come out and say he wasn't interested - in fact he insisted he was - but was totally irresponsible and certainly acted like he had other priorities)
4:19 pm
uusue2

OK, didn't mean to shut down the chog. How about a funny cat video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JyOHpl
zUNo&feature=player_embedded
4:20 pm
Soodlebum

That was what was so unbelievable about my departed hubby.. He was actually quite a good dad (when it suited him). I can understand that marriages fail, businesses fail, but for a dad to run away from his own kids... well, thats something else...
4:20 pm
uusue2

oh, soodle, so you have kids too? What a bum!

Ah, no bum there, Sue! I happen to have been blessed with the three best kids on the planet!

no, I mean him, for leaving.
4:22 pm
aslindy

never mind
4:23 pm
uusue2

gee, and i was just coming up with a wonderful clue (not) :-)
4:24 pm
aslindy

yeah, no idea how it would get clued
4:24 pm
Soodlebum

Paul is now 20, Sarah is 19 and Suzie is 16. So, they were at particularly difficult ages when 'yer man' took off. But, they are well rounded, well educated people in their own right now. I am hugely proud of them.
4:24 pm
aslindy

excellent, soodle
4:25 pm
uusue2

OMG, soodle, it must have been awful for you when he left! And congratulations on three wonderful kids!
4:27 pm
Soodlebum

Of course I worry about the kids, and affect of a 'vamoosed dad', but I think they have weathered the difficulties, and are getting on with their lives. Heck... Onwards and upwards, eh?
4:29 pm
uusue2

Indeed, soodle. The main thing is that they realize they are in no way at fault (kids tend to think that they are responsible for everything that happens when of course they are not). Sounds like they are doing well, and you too. Kudos to all!
4:31 pm
Soodlebum

Thanks Sue. Enough of me monopolising the chat.....Anybody got any good jokes?
4:32 pm
aslindy

of course, you say that, and my mind goes completely blank
4:32 pm

Well, there's always the camel joke in my profile :-)
4:33 pm

4:35 pm

ok, I need to make some supper, and we have a lot of potatoes... suggestions?

They're great dogs, aren't they? We rescued ours about a year and a half ago from the local shelter.
4:36 pm
aslindy

yes, he's a good dog... he's almost 8 - and from a shelter as a pup
4:36 pm
uusue2

Baked potatoes with cheese and stuff?
4:38 pm
Soodlebum

Baked potoatoes with chilli.... I had them this evening and they were Yummy and pretty fat free..
4:39 pm
aslindy

both ideas sound yummy, thanks
4:39 pm
uusue2

You can do oven fries - cut them up into french-fry shapes, sprinkle with seasonings, and bake - also fat free
4:40 pm

Hi all. Baked potatoes are lovely this time of year. I also like potato salad with dill weed and mayonnaise.

This completes the first full week of having a new puppy as a member of the family. He is a labrador and is named Murphy. That is also a family name of my great grandmother.
4:44 pm
aslindy

when raven was a pup, he chewed on everything
4:44 pm
aslindy

especially paper
4:44 pm
Soodlebum

Aha! You can take the girl out of Ireland, but you can never take Ireland out of the girl. Go Murph, go!!!
4:44 pm
aslindy

he would pull anything paperish out of the trash
4:45 pm
aslindy

I had to get lids for the bathroom trash cans >.<
4:45 pm
stidgmere

We dog proofed the house, we thought. To keep him off the furniture we put magazines down on the seats. It worked and today I've been able to remove the visual reminders and he is okay with favorite places to sit on the floor.
4:45 pm
Soodlebum

Oh, Lindy.. been there, done that!
4:46 pm

4:48 pm

no idea what raven is mixed with... but he has black spots on his tongue and a curled tail, and is only about 65 lbs
4:49 pm

Is that the new pup in the photo, gmere?

(tearjerker alert) - my dad was going through his workshop this afternoon and found some photos of my mom taken around the time they got married (1946). "The most beautiful girl in the world", he told me. He plans to hang the photos now that his wife has left (they married 35 years ago, two years after my mom died).

children under age 5 (give or take) are wired to learn. they can learn a language, or how to use computers, whatever, way faster than us grownups

Book Doctor Gwen

yep. my dad loves to tell story of his friends, who went to france for a short time, forget how long, and his 4-y-o learned how to speak french, but his 7-y-o only picked up a few words
7:27 pm
Pinikula

I learned German between 6 mos and 3 yrs...lost it though because no spoke it when we returned to the States :(

yet, us public schools don't teach a foreign language until the kids are like 14-y-o. stooopid
7:28 pm

my niece is learning Spanish from me. Since half her neighborhood speaks it, it'll be a useful life skill.
7:28 pm
Pinikula

agreed, gwen!
7:28 pm
dcseain

we're debating putting her in French or Chinese immersion elementary school.
7:29 pm
Pinikula

my gdau is allegedly learning Mandarin in school; I have yet to hear her say anything in it tho
7:29 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

i took german in high school, and if i had to survive on the german i learned, i'd be dead
7:29 pm
Bugsaw

the only drawback to early learning of a second language is that their vocabularies in both languages they know are not as full as their contemporaries. Not a big problem if you ask me
7:29 pm
Pinikula

(Mandarin and Spanish) ... in other than songs
7:30 pm
dcseain

i agree, that mandarin and spanish is more useful
7:30 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

more than 1 billion people speak mandarin -- it's the gubmint language of china
7:30 pm
Bugsaw

mandarin could be of more use in the future but only if she wants to go into business
7:31 pm
dcseain

indeed, bugs. OTOH, getting the early exposure to tonal language could be a huge bene
7:32 pm
Pinikula

in her first grade, they had her trying to learn mandarin, spanish, and french...a little much if you ask me especially if they can't ultimate even say 'hello'
7:32 pm
Bugsaw

I agree dc. lots of languages early really helps to cement them
7:32 pm

oh, weird thing i found today. part of Ordway St NW in Washington, DC has one side of the street numbered in the 3000 block and the other in the 3100 block.
10:37 pm
Pinikula

interesting concept, dc
10:37 pm
Pinikula

(sorry to have missed the fw...koda had a moment)
10:39 pm
dcseain

it was bizarre. in that part of town it goes 30th NW to 34th NW, so additionally, the 3000/3100 block becomes the 3400 block.
10:39 pm
Pinikula

somebody forgot their math classes
10:40 pm
dcseain

quite so. Arlington, VA does it better, regularly changing blocks numbering mid-block where street is missing.
10:40 pm
Pinikula

gets confusing, eh?
10:42 pm
dcseain

In Arlington? Yes. I go into Arlington several days a week via Washington Blvd. There is a left turn labeled 21st N and N Potomac St at the same time, one sign atop the other. You look down the street and it forks. I checked map. Left one is 21st St N right one is N Potomac St.
10:42 pm
Pinikula

egads!
10:42 pm
Pinikula

...and here I thought 1-ways were bad enough...
10:48 pm
dcseain

there is rhyme and reason to the system in Arlington, but the imposed a grid over a non-grid street system :)
10:48 pm
dcseain

so, if you know the system, you can *usually* find what you need.
10:48 pm
Pinikula

usually being the operative word ;)
10:49 pm
dcseain

though the 200 block of 32nd St N is a court off of 36th St N, and there are a number of such oddities
10:50 pm

I think that's probably one of the reasons I stay away from big cities...

i want to live back in the urban core. Eventually, want a house in the mountains, too.
10:54 pm

the area I'm in (2 cities; one on either side of the freeway) totals about 250K

The town proper across the highway from where i live has another 100,000, not including the areas around it with the town as its mailing address
