Annie, so sorry to hear it. Was afraid of it, it was really bad, wasn't it :( Still no power?

7:18 am

Anniebrook

yes, it was bad but we have generators and that is supplying the power. However, they go out from time to time.

7:19 am

sprite

for the media, it seems to be 'old news'. But for you guys it is still very much the actual situation.

7:20 am

Anniebrook

Yes it is. The wires and transformers in all 5 buildings are being replaced at a cost of 5 million per building.

7:21 am

sprite

omg... that is so much money.

7:21 am

Aloyisius

how many floors per building?

7:21 am

Anniebrook

23 floors and I am on the top floor

7:22 am

Aloyisius

Aloyisius

7:22 am

sprite

good grief. You must have iron legs from walking all those stairs by now :(

7:23 am

Anniebrook

The elevators are running due to the power from the generators.

7:23 am

Aloyisius

but you said the power goes off periodically?

7:23 am

Anniebrook

Uneaixoise

I live in a craaazy state: To exempt or not to exempt college campuses when it comes to storing firearms in cars – that’s one question dividing Republican lawmakers preparing to revive a so-called “guns in parking lots” bill.

7:48 am

new and improved, lol.
I have new meds... not sure if I told ya already? They are working very well, seem to clear my head and make me feel more energised. Upping the dose tomorrow.

hi Mimi, hope the same for you :)

8:00 am

MimiCat

{{SPRITE}} Have a 3 hour round-trip 2-bus travel day, unfortunately. Glad I have a good book!!

8:01 am

sprite

ouch... that is a lot of time in travel :(
Yay for books.

8:01 am

mael

hopefully your trip goes smoothly, mimi!

8:02 am

MimiCat

Thanks, mael....was your dr. visit OK yesterday?

8:02 am

sprite

hi mel

8:02 am

sprite

mael*

8:02 am

mael

pretty much a waste of time, the dermatologist is not concerned but recommends removal of the mole, so he's referring me to a surgeon

8:02 am

mael

hi sprite :)

8:03 am

sprite

isn't that at least a bit of a reassurance? Or weren't you worried?

8:03 am

mael

so I have an appointment for january, which is fine. I;ll be traveling for the holidays and I really don't want to deal with stitches

8:03 am

MimiCat

Did he even do the biopsy? He should just to be sure. Or is the surgeon going to do that?

8:04 am

mael

I was worried, a little, but mostly about getting it removed because I'm a big wuss

8:04 am

sprite

<--- just as big a wuss

8:05 am

mael

the surgeon is going to do the pathology after removal, apparently. So we'll know. It looks like an atypical mole but not like anything serious. What's sad is that I was all geared up and ready for him to remove it and then he refers me, haha

8:05 am

mael

so I'm going to need to get geared up again

8:05 am

car.eeyore

good morning

8:05 am

car.eeyore

Hang in there, mael!

8:05 am

MimiCat

As I told you, dear, the one I had removed on my face just under my left eye was not bad at all....you'll be fine. Hopefully, you have someone supportive to go with you.

8:05 am

sprite

that is a real shame. Would have been nicer if it was behind you now

8:05 am

Hello lideola!

8:06 am

MimiCat

Morning, lid!!

8:06 am

my husband will come with me, but he's a bigger wuss than I am. :)

8:07 am

lideola

hi

8:07 am

mael

yeah, luckily I really have zero problems with needles. I had a fibroadenoma removed when I was 18 and the freakiest part was feeling the knife but not feeling pain, actually

8:07 am

MimiCat

Isn't that usually the truth....can you even imagine most men going through childbirth, not to mention the nine months of "possession" that precede it?

8:08 am

car.eeyore

phantom: augment

8:08 am

sprite

well... I think my husband would have done just fine, to be honest. And he helped me all of the way.

8:08 am

sprite

yeah... thanks car.ee... for putting that one on my retina...

8:09 am

mael

two things my husband (who is awesome and supportive) is not going to be able to deal with: needles and childbirth

8:09 am

MimiCat

You obviously have a superior man, sprite!

8:09 am

Sorry! :p

8:09 am

sprite

yeah, car.ee, it is. But modern. Alas, not in enable.

8:12 am

car.eeyore

oooh! TY for that phantom sprite! It led me to two words. HAHAHAHAH!

8:12 am

a couple of teenager kids at soccer followed and beat up the referee at a soccer game. The man died later in hospital. Imagine giving your time and energy to those kids and being killed for your efforts.

8:47 am

BabbleRabble

gl 4/6 --- white part of the brain that does some work similar to what neurons do

8:47 am

hurshy

i gots 3 with playing with spelling, is that it? have 2 unrelated gu and 4 gl

8:48 am

sprite

yep, hursh, and the gu4 that is unrelated but looks like it is related

8:48 am

hurshy

ah

8:48 am

sprite

gu5/6 combo has to do with pretending to be different than one is

8:49 am

hurshy

right those were the two unrelated ones i had

8:49 am

sprite

good :)

8:49 am

mael

thanks, everybody!

8:49 am

gu 4/7 ... first part of the Cuban gulag

8:50 am

hurshy

ah thanks those are weirdos

8:50 am

mael

still missing one which I suspect is a play-with-the gu7 spelling one

8:50 am

hurshy

drop the e

8:51 am

yeah. But babble words, been around before.

8:54 am

mael

wait, hold on, enable doesn't think SEEN is a word??

8:54 am

hurshy

yes it does.

8:55 am

sprite

hold on. What's up, hursh?

8:55 am

sprite

mael... try again, lol

8:55 am

mael

weird, it told me it wasn't

8:55 am

mael

tried twice, got it the third time

8:55 am

mael

sorry, free word everyone!

8:55 am

sprite

either a typo or a crooked byte

8:56 am

hurshy

kate, nee middleton, having acute morning sickness as she is now pregnant (under 12 weeks!), and meanwhile some jerky radio show called the hospital where she is and pretended to be the queen and got them to tell info about her condition!

8:56 am

mael

checked for typos because I was incredulous :)

8:56 am

hurshy

bad enough that she has to have severe morning sickness without people being like that.

8:56 am

mael

yeah, hurshy, I feel bad. Sounds like she;ll have a rough pregnancy and to be in the spotlight like that...

8:56 am

sprite

sounds pretty stupid and unfeeling, hursh :(

8:57 am

hurshy

although i have heard of some people who have really bad first trimesters and then the rest goes great.

8:57 am

mael

fingers crossed for her

8:58 am

bichon

I don't think that early pregnancy severe morning sickness means a ad pregnancy

8:58 am

bichon

In fact morning sickness does protect a fetus, I've read

8:58 am

bichon

*bad

8:59 am

hurshy

protect it? like immune wise or...?

8:59 am

Judi

*clueless* What's an "ad" pregnancy?

8:59 am

bichon

I always feel so bad that I can't get more excited over royalty. It sounds like fun

8:59 am

hurshy

i think i heard what you heard but can't recall the details

8:59 am

bichon

It's supposed to protect the fetus from toxins in the diet. I can't remember the specifics

9:00 am

sprite

I have heard it is a sign of strong hormonal change.

9:00 am

mael

regular morning sickness, yes, but the women I know who were diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum is different

9:00 am

bichon

Judi, meant "bad"

9:00 am

mael

oops, two different thoughts. It's more sever and can last through the entire pregnancy

9:00 am

sprite

lol bichon... same he4. But they are persons, and I certainly wish every pregnant woman a good pregnancy.

9:00 am

bichon

But IV can help for severe vomiting

9:00 am

Judi

Actually, I had a bit of a giggle over that prank. I don't think the royal family was impacted at all. I do feel a bit bad for the hospital staff/nurse who got flustered and gave out information.

9:01 am

hurshy

i just don't think i would enjoy a prank being made out of my suffering.

9:02 am

sprite

I would hate to see my personal info in tabloids. And in my pregnancy I'd have been really hurt... hormonal queen #1 I was in both pregnancies, lol

9:02 am

hurshy

granted the topless photo thing would be worse, to me.

9:03 am

BabbleRabble

I think that people who do things like that are jerks who should have their cars egged on a regular basis.

9:03 am

mael

I think the overall lack of privacy would drive me incredibly batty

9:03 am

sprite

while driving, BabbleRabble? Or just before they go to work?

9:03 am

hurshy

yeah - i mean those photos, for instance, were taken when she was on private property, an estate of HUNDREDS of acres!

9:03 am

Judi

I don't think the royals get too cramped up over what appears in the tabloids. Most of what is printed about them is rubbish anyway. I think they've developed very thick skins over the years.

9:04 am

sprite

probably, Judi. Goes with the job, I guess.

9:04 am

hurshy

but she hasn't been a royal for years.

9:05 am

sprite

hail may be a phantom, but it is hitting our windows he4 right now

9:05 am

Judi

Live an dlearn. Unfortunately, being a royal/celebrity means you are constantly stalked by paparazi. Release the hounds!

9:05 am

mael

yikes, sprite

9:06 am

Judi

*meaning the hounds should be released upon the paparazi*

9:06 am

hurshy

that's why it took her so long to agree to marry him.

9:06 am

sprite

crazy weather. Snow and hail! Might not be able to go to therapy day tomorrow, they expect traffic chaos.

9:07 am

sprite

hursh, people who do such things show a huge lack of decency. But for the media, everything goes. Especially when there is no other news they can use at that moment.

9:07 am

hurshy

i don't think it's a big deal having them in the news a lot as long as certain lines are not crossed.

9:08 am

hurshy

i guess i'm pretty old fashioned myself.

9:08 am

mael

the news is fine, paparazzi are not. And I realize the line is blurred between them, I just feel bad for the poor woman having to deal with people inquiring about her uterus day in and day out

9:09 am

Judi

That is true, mael. However, which is more pathetic? The paparazzi snapping pics of anything and everything, or the people who buy the tabloids/mags to read that trash?

9:10 am

BabbleRabble

What is interesting to me is the lack of empathy .... being stalked and hounded is a fact of life .. deal with it ... The jerks get a free pass.

9:10 am

mael

can I say both, judi? :)

9:10 am

hurshy

i totally would favor lots of privacy laws. in the US i'd add the right to privacy into the constitution.

9:10 am

Judi

Yes you can, mael.

9:11 am

sprite

lack of empathy is a very common trait in the media, I think. Maybe even in everyday life. Though I am often happily surprised at unexpected showing of empathy as well.

9:12 am

mael

when glancing at the tabloids in the chekout line I always notice that it's women being accused of either weighing too much, or too little

9:12 am

mael

you can't win

9:12 am

sprite

very true, mael. And if you should happen to have the perfect weight, they probably accuse you of arrogance or shallowness.

9:13 am

Judi

... or being anorexic, or having your stomach stapled... can't win.

9:14 am

sprite

actually, the focus on appearance is interesting in itself. Maybe, if you aren't any deeper than a plate of soup, you can't see any deeper either?

9:14 am

Judi

THIS JUST IN!!! I am neither too rich or too thin! I demand equality!

9:14 am

Judi

*nor*

9:14 am

sprite

tsk, Judi. You are too much fun. *runs to the tabloids*

9:15 am

Judi

*imagines sprite photoshopping my head onto Jabba the Hut*

9:16 am

sprite

*giggles* Darn, I still have a bit of Jabba left!

9:16 am

Judi

Don't forget to photoshop saggy boobs onto Jabba.

9:16 am

sprite

*simply removes shirt*

9:16 am

MollyL

What? Judi looks like Jabba the Hut? *Starts rumors*

9:17 am

Judi

Heavens no. Uh oh. Must remember to buy all the copies of "The Babbloids" from the racks.

9:17 am

hi Molly

9:17 am

BabbleRabble

I have been told I am naive, concrete, lack affect, see things in black and white.. no gray ... it is either right or wrong and no sorta okay .. I plead guilty and have paid the price .... but would not change a thing

9:18 am

sprite

I have been told most of those as well, BabbleRabble, and quite a few others. People see whatever they want to see.

9:20 am

crosshair

and hair

6:53 pm

Glantarell

I had nerve damage form suregery in 2005, the nerves from that damage have recovered and healed incredibly slowy and I now have partial sensation there - but I think the chemo just kills the nreves so they can't regenerate

6:55 pm

crosshair

they do indeed glant my fingers half way up my hands and my foot to the middle of the foot are pins and needles all the time

6:56 pm

crosshair

6:57 pm

smores

wow crossy, giant, I had no idea

6:57 pm

smores

Is the med you're talking about something new?

6:58 pm

crosshair

7:03 pm

Lizlin

True - the ground needs it badly but its still about 28 C outside, so not cold! Just decided not to go foraging for driftwood this morning!

7:04 pm

Lizlin

using the driftwood to terrace the garden at the back.

7:05 pm

crosshair

and jilly regarding the side effects of chemo..i was never so sick in all my life.it was ..i have no words for it..spewing your life and essance out into the toilet bowl 15-30 times a day.not being able to gather enough strength to have a bath if your loved one does not help you...but enough of this evil topic

7:06 pm

crosshair

28c and i would be sweating like crAzy

7:06 pm

Lizlin

Not so humid today even with the rain - windows and doors open to catch any breeze and fans if needed!

7:07 pm

Jillyjill

I know that as a nurse, that's why I always encouraged people to ask their chemo MD 'what is this going to do FOR me, and what is it going to do TO me'.

7:07 pm

you have to definatly balance treatment and quality of life

10:38 pm

MimiCat

I'm a bit punchy tonight...had a long, tiring day and the police just left because some guy was knocking on doors in my building claiming to be with the cable company......NEED REST!!

10:38 pm

MimiCat

BTW, your daughter is delightful.

10:38 pm

smores

eekk...did they catch the guy?

10:39 pm

smores

lol...thanks...has she been on again chatting?

10:40 pm

MimiCat

I don't know but I doubt it. He knocked on my door (I'm the one who called the police) and I got rid of him but then he came back and knocked on my neighbor's door (another single woman) and from what he said I think he was trying to gain entry. So I told him I was on the phone with the police and really let him have it.....he left all the time saying I was nasty.....well, EXCUSE ME!!!

10:42 pm

smores

wow Mimi...

10:42 pm

MimiCat

He was asking unusual and inappropriate questions and it was after 7:00 at night. I called Cox Cable and they are the ones who said I should call the police because their people are supposed to quit at 5 and wouldn't be asking those questions. He also refused to give me his name...another no no, says the cable company. He picked the WRONG door to knock on!! I'm all of 5'5" but I'm MIGHTY!!

10:45 pm

MimiCat

I normally do not open my door to strangers, especially at night, but I thought he was my neighbor from downstairs---he looked like him a bit.

10:45 pm

MimiCat

BTW, how did you upload the pictures to your profile? I tried flickr but couldn't figure it out.

10:46 pm

smores

please be careful

10:47 pm

smores

I had them on my computeralready and then set up a flickr account and added them...don't remember if it says upload or select

10:49 pm

MimiCat

I em'd flickr but they answered a completely different question than the simple one I asked....will try again. I have a few really nice pictures that I uploaded to it but can't figure out how to get it to cross to Babble. May try Dr. God tomorrow. By the way, dear, you are soooo pretty!!

10:50 pm

smores

lol...I don't have any photos of me on there

10:50 pm

MimiCat

Isn't that you with the bride?

10:51 pm

smores

no...lol...that is her older sister

10:51 pm

smores

they are both my step daughters

10:52 pm

MimiCat

If I manage to upload personal pics I'm going to do ones from years ago when I still had my looks and didn't have to settle for just being colorful!!

10:54 pm

smores

lol....yah...maybe I'll put an old on of me on there

10:55 pm

MimiCat

I am totally exhausted so guess I'll watch a movie that I really want to see so I'll fall asleep! Night, my dear, and BIG HUGS to you!

10:55 pm

smores

I am unfortunatly wide awake

10:56 pm

smores

good night dear, sleep well :)

10:58 pm

MimiCat

I've been up since 5, had to go downtown which required about 4 hours total bus time, had one meeting there and then had another one and then stopped at the store.....most of that was walking, so I'm just glad I can still do that considering the heart attack earlier this year. I didn't get home until after 3 this afternoon. Talk to you tomorrow!

10:59 pm

smores

wow...Mimi....you definatly deserve a good night sleep

11:00 pm

smores

So glad I caught you tonight...get some rest....hope to see you tomorrow {hugs}

11:01 pm

MimiCat

And I have to go back downtown tomorrow morning but there will be less walking and I'll be home earlier...I'm a tough old broad!! I'm glad, too----I do sooo miss you when you're not here! Night.

11:02 pm

smores

well I am off work tomorrow so see ya then

11:43 pm
