"Ok, that is not good," the priest says. "But definitely not bad enough to want to kill yourself over it. Trust me, you are not the only doctor who has done this."
"But I am a vet!" the man yells.

3:35 am
puglet

are you going to have to see the psy. after your group meetings
3:36 am
sprite

yes, they have asked me to stick with her for the ptsd. They don't feel they can help me enough in that area.
3:37 am
puglet

if you rode your bike to the train how did you get it back home
3:37 am
sprite

my love drops me off at the station
3:38 am
puglet

are you gaining anything with the ptsd?
3:38 am
sprite

right now, there are a lot of triggers and it is pretty bad. But that was to be expected. Will be able to tell more a little further along the road.
3:40 am
puglet

are you feeling improved yourself(on the inside)
3:41 am
sprite

not right now, pug. But I can feel I am doing the right things for me and that I am on the right track. Will feel better in time.
3:42 am
puglet

I have all the faith you will! By you not working outside the home anymore do you think that allows you more time to dwell on those things?
3:43 am
sprite

probably. I know I couldn't handle an outdoor job yet. But who knows, in a year time :)
3:44 am

3:48 am

Take care, Ruby..hope apt goes well for you.

But it must be OK on the IOW if stuff's drying outside.
6:48 am
lbdawger

whooo hoooo Lickety's back!
6:49 am
Lizlin

They (whoever they are) say it's going to be a hot dry summer this year. Unusual for us if that happens as summer is our wet season.
6:49 am
zoozzoom

It is around 19c here at the moment..but by thursday it is going to be around 10c..the humidity is not too bad though..so things are drying ok.
6:49 am
Lizlin

Brrr! I've sort of forgotten what 10c feels like (happily).
6:50 am

If Lickety's back, why can't I access his site? I get a server not found message.
6:50 am

Not good then, Liz...do you have water butts filled ready for any dry periods?
6:50 am
Lizlin

Lickety's working fine here - try refreshing.
6:51 am

6:51 am
Lizlin

We do have a rain tank - have talked about getting more but haven't done so yet. Our dams are full here.
6:51 am
zoozzoom

Just tried it, Sam, It is working here..try refreshing or closing down your computer completley and back on again..normally does the trick.
6:52 am
zoozzoom

18 minutes..wow..i will take just a bit longer....maybe by about a few hours..lol
6:53 am
zoozzoom

That is good the your dams are full then..at least that is something.
6:53 am
zoozzoom

Oh no..the washing has finished...time to hang it out..back later.
6:54 am
Lizlin

I think that many dams filled up over the past year - certainly Melbourne area had quite a bit of rain - I hope people will be OK.

BzznBea

Have you tried clearing our cache?
7:24 am
72 Temple Owl

no
7:24 am

it may have to do with Lickety's new server, not sure but if safari and chrome aren't working, that would be my guess
7:24 am
o-o

reload or refresh page?
7:24 am
72 Temple Owl

bea, that does not seem logical. it is a help desk thing,like reboot
7:25 am
o-o

the link on babble must be reset. it does not work either. are the sucessful oks using expert?

I have it on my desktop and can access his clues. Can you clean your cache. Don't forget to close Chrome first
7:29 am

I dont think Chrome is open. I really do not know how to do this. I open the computer, the desktop comes on and I click on Babble Expert. I am not good with computers, sorry to say.

It's funny. LBD says she has had issues with any browser but Internet Explorer. The only browser I have ever had issues with WAS Internet Explorer.
7:31 am
Anniebrook

bichon, I dont know what a cache cleaner is. Can I go to AOL and use the urls to get to Babble Expert?
7:31 am
Wolvie

Br- that link also told me it failed to find the server. odd
7:31 am

I'll get the url for the cache cleaner
7:31 am
72 Temple Owl

none of the urls posted by anyone has worked
7:31 am
Wolvie

what is the link for expert?
7:32 am
MollyL

I would suggest emailing Lickety about Expert. As someone said earlier, it could be his new set up.
7:32 am
72 Temple Owl

doesn't the cache cleaner remove all coolies?
7:32 am

CCleaner.com

Yes it does TO, including any passwords you are linked to.
7:32 am

yes TO

Sorry. I do not use expert but can access Lickety on firefox, chrome and IE
7:33 am

which is why i am loath to do that if i am not 100% uaranteed that is the fix.
7:33 am
72 Temple Owl

i tired firefox, no dice
7:33 am
Wolvie

thanks for trying BR. :-) i am not sure i use expert or not, lol. I know i paid some money years ago- but not sure. very sad. lol
7:33 am
bichon

Let me pose a question. Why wouldn't everyone not use Expert
7:34 am
o-o

I see no reason to.
7:34 am
72 Temple Owl

i don't care for it.
7:34 am
bichon

That was awkward, everyone should use Expert, no?
7:34 am
MollyL

I find Expert to be a very quirky program. And I do just fine playing the game on the regular Babble site.
7:34 am
bichon

It certainly is easier
7:34 am
Wolvie

so- can someone give me the link please??
7:35 am
Wolvie

i would like to check. :D
7:35 am
72 Temple Owl

it has been a while since it tried it, so i don't remember the details, but it took away something from the challenge for me
7:35 am

The link to what Wolvie
7:35 am

from the sounds of it i use the regular babble not expert
7:35 am
Wolvie

7:35 am

I don't use expert....do as well as I want to with the regular site, lickety, etc.
7:35 am

I just keep the clues closed until I need them
7:36 am

II don't know it Wolvie
7:36 am

All Expert does is put the word in alphabetical order in hte clue list.
7:36 am

now i know i dont use expert, lol- no clues on my page or available
7:36 am

ahh. ty annie. nope i dont need the link :-)
7:37 am

I guess my best bet is to write to Lickety.
7:38 am

Wait, you can't get to Lickety's List either?

that is th eissue for me.

ty BR- the r46 server is not working at all- so no lickety no expert, lol. but i will email doctor god
7:39 am
MollyL

So when you click on "Lickety's Babble Clues" below the grid, what happens?
7:39 am
72 Temple Owl

same error server not found
7:39 am
Wolvie

server not found
7:40 am
MollyL

Wolvie, you have to email Lickety. Dr. God has nothing to do with Lickety, Expert or the list.
7:40 am
welki

morning, folks - i'm using firefox and the clue link comes up fine
7:40 am
72 Temple Owl

in ie and firefox, with new browser.
7:40 am
72 Temple Owl

hey welk.
7:41 am
welki

just tried safari and chrome - link works for me there, too
7:41 am
MollyL

It can't be a server issue since so many people are saying they can access the server.
7:41 am
Wolvie

okay
7:42 am
Sam

I suspect there are different servers in different countries. It seems US babblers can't reach the server, but others can.
7:42 am
MollyL

The only thing I can think of for you folks having trouble accessing the list is the old reboot trick.
7:42 am
o-o

Dr_God likely will tell you to email Lickety
7:42 am
lynxxx

I'll add to the chorus too - everything still works OK for me too
7:42 am
MollyL

I am a US user and I can access the list just fine.
7:42 am
Wolvie

yeah- reboot is probably the ticket
7:42 am
joso

working in canada too
7:43 am
72 Temple Owl

reboot takes so long, i will just try again later. last time this happened, someone had to post the new URL
7:44 am
zoozzoom

Working fine is the UK too.
7:44 am
zoozzoom

in.
7:44 am
Sam

Well, I cleared my cache and rebooted my computer and still no Lickety.
7:44 am
welki

sounds like more people can access than not - probably nothing that lickety can help with
7:44 am
zoozzoom

the UK itself is not working fine..but that is a different story :-)
7:44 am

Not sure what you mean by "the new url". The url to the list is http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html

7:46 am

yep- that is the addy i have and it tells me cant find server, lol. ah well- it will get resolved
7:46 am

I wonder if this is an internet provider thing. Sometimes, certain providers get stuck accessing certain servers.
7:46 am
Wolvie

ty dawg :-)
7:46 am
zoozzoom

I am sure it is just lickety that moved..he did not as far as i am aware, change the server where lickety is.
7:47 am
zoozzoom

the list..oh you know what i mean.
7:47 am
lynxxx

my money is on Molly's suggestion
7:47 am

Lickety does need to hear about this though. He can contact his server people about those who can't access.

as an aside, these fish are called pumpkinseed sunfish - they're very small and a hoot to catch on a fly rod
7:54 am

7:54 am

flies are so small ... you must really be good at fishing to use a rod that small.
7:56 am
zoozzoom

haha nice name for a fish.
7:56 am

the flies are tiny, o-o - and yeah, if they sold a miniature popeet's pocket flyfishing rod, i'd buy one :)

for icefishing, o-o, i sometimes use a really small fishing rod - takes some finesse, but once you get the technique, it works well - check this out: https://www.marmish.ca/

ha wow that is small.
8:05 am

what, me, go out in a hut and freeze my hiney off to get some fish. Somehow i think I'll resist that opportunity.
8:09 am

I admire people who live in such cold conditions for long periods of time..i prefer warmer climates..not that the UK is a warm place but..we do get tepid climates more than freezing.

I can't imagine living in any place with snow &/or ice
8:10 am

oh, gone are the days when you'd do that, joso - we load up the quads - ice fishing tent, heater, chairs, auger, gear, lunch - and spend a beautiful day on the ice. the dogs love it, it's warm in the tent and, if we catch fish, it's a bonus
8:10 am

8:19 am
pcal2

From US using Firefox, adding my 2 cents. I emailed lickety last night that I was getting "server not found" msg. He thought just me; sugg I empty cache. Did that, rebooted. No luck; same msg. Thanks lbd for posting list!
8:19 am
zoozzoom

Well my attempt at singing..hahaha
8:20 am
welki

i had a fine voice as a younger person - now, not so much. but i really think that everyone should sing - every day
8:20 am
Anniebrook

pcal2, I wrote to Lickety too.
8:21 am

It does seem strange how some people are having trouble with getting the lickety list to open and yet lots of people have no trouble..baffling.

It sounds like a service provider problem, we know the site is there, just that some can't reach it. i doubt lickety can do anything about that
8:24 am
Buggie

can you go straight to the site, instead of the redirection? the actual address is http://r46.me/BabbleClues.html
8:24 am
Anniebrook

hi joso, what do the poor folks (like me) do who can't reach the site. *sigh*
8:25 am
zoozzoom

The sad thing is i can still get lickety site to open..but hardly ever use it.
8:25 am
joso

buggie's idea might work, or talk to service provider.
8:25 am
Anniebrook

I think this has happened before when Lickety moved and it was resolved. Does anyone here remember that?
8:26 am
bichon

Yes, Annie, I do
8:26 am
zoozzoom

I have only been here since january 2009...was it before that as i can not remember it, Annie.
8:26 am

Maybe try searching on ...LicketySplitAUS
8:27 am
Anniebrook

bichon, As I recall it was resolved by Lickety, bless him. I hope it is the same kind of situation.
8:28 am
lynxxx

I think that was when no-one at all could access him Annie. This time it seems only some can't
8:28 am
joso

If the site has moved because lickety has, ie he is hosting it on his own machine, then over time the search engines and web address lists will update things.
8:28 am
Buggie

if lickety is hosting the site from his home connection, your internet provider can take up to 48 hours to update their DNS servers (but taking that long means a really bad provider...). But do try the address I posted, that's the page you're taken to when you click the link
8:29 am
zoozzoom

wow the chance of two people posting very similar posts must be high..you two should do the lottery..lol
8:29 am
Anniebrook

I cant try to type that address Buggie on Expert but will get onto AOL later and try from there. Thanks. Lickety does not host the site, he offers us the program Babble Expert. I hope I am making sense.
8:30 am
lynxxx

People have already tried that Buggie but some are still not getting through
8:30 am
zoozzoom

low tsk.
8:30 am
pcal2

Tried using the url instead of link; tried IE...same result.
8:31 am
zoozzoom

Sort of annie..but theclues, Lickety puts up each day is done from his machine..so as they say could take a couple of days for the DNS servers to update.
8:32 am
Buggie

hrm, well there's always the opendns solution, but I'm guessing that might be too difficult for most people... otherwise the only answer is to wait it out

I am in the process of designing my balcony to be a haven for the cats so they can enjoy being outside safely. Can't let them up on the patio wall as my Dodger has seizures and might fall off. Going to use lattice and Rhapis palms to line that wall so they can't jump up and put in some type of pedestals so they can still get up high and see out.
8:46 am
car.eeyore

Awesome mimi!
8:46 am
MimiCat

It's going to take a lot of lattice and plans as my balcony wall is 172' wide!
8:47 am

172 feet???
8:47 am

But it will also be an oasis for me. I already have pretty solar lights (lilies, hummingbird, dragonfly and butterfly) that change colors and I want to put a waterfall type fountain out there, too.
8:47 am

Its all good and fun until Dante gets involved....all 16+ lb of him. He wants to play to but doesn't bring the ball back. Just takes it and then sits on Buddy or beats the crap out of him

8:50 am

Still a pretty nice balcony :-)
8:52 am
MimiCat

Yes, it is, and it overlooks the courtyard and trees so the cats get to watch birds. They already have the bedroom window for that but they so much want to be outside. Am hoping to be able to put the litter box out there as well and just let them come and go as they please. Might have to get a cat door, though....we'll see.
8:54 am
uusue2

Yes, my cats are indoor cats too, and our new place has a completely screened-in porch. I thought the cats would spend more time out there than they do, but the dogs also like it so perhaps that makes it less appealing.
8:56 am
MimiCat

My cats have a tendency to demolish screens. They rip into them with claws...bedroom window screen totally demolished on one side. It's mostly them trying to catch bugs they see on them but once they sink claws in, it's difficult to pull back out so they rip the screens....sigh..one must take the bad with the good, alas.
8:59 am

Ah - mine are declawed (which is why they are indoor cats). I didn't declaw them but I did look for declawed cats at the rescue facility.

from the national institute of health:
Scientists now believe that people with diverticular disease do not need to eliminate certain foods from their diet. In the past, health care providers recommended that people with diverticular disease avoid nuts, popcorn, and sunflower, pumpkin, caraway, and sesame seeds because they thought food particles could enter, block, or irritate the diverticula. However, recent data suggest that these foods are not harmful.5 The seeds in tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, strawberries, and raspberries, as well as poppy seeds, are also fine to eat. Nonetheless, people with diverticular disease may differ in the amounts and types of foods that worsen their symptoms.

Hi all! Where can I find a list, please?
6:20 pm

Needing to impress others in my view is allowing yourself to be defined by others.

good evening everyone
6:56 pm
stidmama

hey phand! did you start your new job?
6:57 pm
phandmd

Yes, today was the 2nd day. It was full of computer learning. I had 32 power points to look at and tests to take. I didn't finish them all so I will have to go in tomorrow before I was supposed to be there to finish up.
6:58 pm
phandmd

I am toast now.
6:58 pm
phandmd

not sure why I am even attempting this puzzle tonight. haha
6:59 pm
stidmama

wow. that is a LOT of learning -- how do you think you are doing?
6:59 pm
stidmama

*offers apple butter for phand's toast*

*wicked mama grin*
6:59 pm
phandmd

I am doing fine. I get the results right away.
6:59 pm
phandmd

the question is how much am I really retaining!
6:59 pm
phandmd

YUMMY, apple butter....
7:00 pm
stidmama

actually, that was the question I typed first, phand! LOL
7:00 pm
phandmd

tomorrow is a crisis prevention intervention class.
7:02 pm
stidmama

what sort of crises?
7:02 pm
phandmd

I don't know, that is what the class is called.
7:03 pm
stidmama

oh, okay --

so much to learn! the terminology is what got me confused when I was new at this school. Who is on what teams, why and... what should I do to integrate and help?
7:04 pm
phandmd

can be overwhelming!
7:04 pm
stidmama

NBT! :-)
7:04 pm
phandmd

way to go, I still have 1 tile that is bland and 2 stats
7:05 pm
stidmama

yes, very. And here were are, in the middle of the 6th week and I only just realized we are only 4 weeks from the end of the first grading period... I was starting to panic, but my team teacher (same room) reminded me that we actually have all year and it's okay to start a little slowly.
7:05 pm
stidmama

I need a 7 and the 8... then I have NBS
7:05 pm
phandmd

that's what I need too.

ah - I was busy taking a friend to a medical appointment in Chicago
9:26 pm
uusue2

hi stid!!
9:26 pm
stidmama

hope friend will be okay, sue
9:27 pm
uusue2

she's had a headache almost constantly since February and they can't figure out why
9:27 pm
uusue2

she was supposed to have a spinal tap today but they couldn't get it done so she'll have to go back and have it done by the radiologists
9:28 pm
stidmama

oh, that's not good. *sending peace* it's awful to be in pain like that, even for just a week or so
9:28 pm
uusue2

it's really been almost disabling for her - although she's managed to keep up with her graduate studies in spite of it - she did have to cut down to two classes this semester
9:31 pm
stidmama

yes, I am glad that even on days like today (weather migraine) they are nowhere like they used to be. I managed to teach anyway, we'll see what managed to stick tomorrow. But when the migraines were daily while I was in grad school... that was horrible. I couldn't cut back to part time in that program though, so I am glad hers allows it.
9:31 pm
joso

that sounds ghastly sue
9:31 pm
stidmama

hey joso
9:31 pm
joso

hi stid
9:32 pm
uusue2

yes, people are trying to work with her but it's been really hard for her - and no medications seem to work (without knocking her out)
9:32 pm
uusue2

hi joso!
9:32 pm
joso

does she get any relief with sleep?
9:33 pm
uusue2

ok, 6 w words and I will be done
9:34 pm
uusue2

I think she has some medication that lets her sleep, joso, but it's not great for her
9:34 pm
stidmama

with me, the main trigger turned out to be the eye defect, sue -- the splintering of the light entering the eye, and then the additional strain of trying to focus on all the tiny print... have they checked her eyes for things like wrinkled cornea (my issue) and other defects? I don't wear glasses, my eyes are actually 20/20, but all the reading of grad school overtaxed the ability to work around the life-long undiagnosed defect.
9:34 pm
stidmama

go sue go!
9:36 pm
uusue2

I'm not sure, stid, they have done about a zillion tests
9:36 pm
uusue2

but it came on very suddenly (she can tell you the day it started) and includes numbness and burning down her arm
9:36 pm
stidmama

ooh. that's way different from mine.
9:37 pm
stidmama

Well, I will hold her in the light, and hope the answers, when they arrive, are comforting.
9:37 pm
uusue2

yes, it's really not a migraine for her, it's something else. Many doctors have been flummoxed.
9:38 pm
uusue2

she went to a headache clinic in Chicago - supposed to be one of the best in the country - and they couldn't really help her, so now she's going to neurologists at the University of Chicago
9:38 pm
joso

yea, I,ve heard of studies that say drug induced sleep is not truly restful. So stid, your brain has been reassembling distorted image data your whole life, like what computers were doing for the hubble with it's distorted lens?
9:39 pm
stidmama

Speaking of people we know and love... how's your son doing?
9:39 pm
uusue2

he's doing well, stid, so far so good in this semester
9:40 pm
stidmama

LOL yes, joso, apparently so. I first noticed a "squiggle" in my eyes when I was a young teen, but docs dismissed it for more than three decades as a "floater" -- wasn't until my mother was diagnosed with it that I had something I could ask for testing, and then it turned out there are several women in my maternal line with this defect. Good thing I had boys!
9:40 pm
uusue2

fireworks, at last!
9:40 pm
stidmama

Glad to hear, sue! :-D *happy mama grin*
9:40 pm

YAY SUE!!!!!

joso

congrats sue
9:41 pm
uusue2

once again all his classes are engineering ones; he seems to do better that way
9:41 pm
uusue2

he's taking fluid dynamics, engineering economics (which he says is deadly dull), integrated circuits, and something else
9:41 pm
stidmama

I usually only notice the defect when I am looking at light, solid-colored things... or blue sky. But now it interferes with making sense of print. For a reader... it has not been fun.
9:42 pm
stidmama

WOW. That sounds like a FULL load, sue!
9:42 pm
uusue2

he had a similar schedule last spring and did well, so I am hopeful
9:42 pm

also he is maturing, which helps....

hi stid; sorry your having vision problems
10:08 pm
Nef

you're (sorry for the typo)
10:08 pm
stidmama

not anymore, nef -- no more grad school, and I have accomodations when I need them at work (I haven't needed them since I left grad school). :-)
10:10 pm
Nef

I had to wear glasses as a senior in high school and through Nursing school due to what they called a "lazy eye" I was getting severe headaches from all the reading back then
10:11 pm
Nef

Then I didn't need glasses again til I was 47 (and ended up with trifocals within 8 years!
10:12 pm
stidmama

wish glasses helped me -- but they make it worse
10:18 pm
stidmama

Nef, I didn't manage to can anything this summer. I had the blue book out several times, and then things would get crazy and I never managed to can anything. But it sure made me happy to be able to think about it...
10:18 pm
Nef

WOW! That's interesting that that would make it worse (thinking how an astigmatism is helped by glasses
10:18 pm
stidmama

also, pics of the floors are on my website, nef...
10:19 pm
Nef

(and sorry for the slow response, had to let the dog out and there's some fox in the neighborhood so I have to wait outside with him at night
10:19 pm
stidmama

I don't pretend to understand it, but I can use a magnifier up close to text and it's okay, but glasses (in general) make it worse. If my eyes are already shot, however, a pair of "cheaters" can make it possible for me to do things like thread a needle.
10:19 pm
stidmama

oh, foxes can be tricky!
10:20 pm
stidmama

I used to worry about Buffy until we got Lucky to protect her.
10:21 pm
Nef

thanks, stud. I didn't can anything this summer either. With my son & family moving in, things kind of overwhelmed me
10:21 pm
stidmama

yes, I imagine they would.
10:22 pm
Nef

sorry, stid! (stupid spellcheck!)
10:22 pm
stidmama

I did go to Mother's once and made refrigerator pickles. Those are probably ready to start using, come to think of it.
10:22 pm
Nef

we did make a couple gallons of ref rig. pickles, but we also ate them! :-)
10:22 pm

no worries, nef ;-)

Hi RoundBarn. I'm not making much sense I know; I was talking about the sa5 and not knowing if it's the 1st or last
10:41 pm
Nef

(and it's a good thing that the bottom half is a goat; it would look odd the other way around!
10:41 pm

I gave a clue earlier for that one, but I think it was too archaic ! lol I said , think of the old musical "Naughty M******* !
10:50 pm
dianedecoder

meaning that I'm a little ancient... it's funny what different clues we all give, based upon our age and the era we grew up in.

stidmama

that's funny, diane -- just the other day I was with a group of people and a karen carpenter song started to play. We all sang along, and I realized it meant we were all about the same age! LOL

11:30 pm
rururocks

yeahhhh westie.
11:30 pm
Jacula

I'm not sure if I'm up early or up late, since I didn't sleep very well because my brain wouldn't switch off. I've been working on a 'Dexter' continuation for fan fiction and also on a plot blast what- if chart for the latest shock in the plot in Downton Abbey. I won't say what that shock is, since we in UK have the lasest series now and you in USA don't get it until January.
11:30 pm
rururocks

just in time
11:31 pm
Jacula

*latest, I meant, not lastest. lol
11:31 pm
westford

I've cut it much closer ruru
11:31 pm
rururocks

11:31 pm
Jacula

Well done, westford!
11:32 pm
rururocks

...guessing...
11:32 pm
Jacula

ruru - Yes, as is 'Dexter'.
11:32 pm
rururocks

oh
11:32 pm
westford

thanks jac I'm so jealous..can't wait for our next Downton
11:32 pm
rururocks

I don't really watch much tv.. I'm so out of it
11:33 pm
Jacula

ruru - I feel like that when I come in here and people are chatting about sport. lol
11:33 pm
rururocks

yeah.. same difference I guess
11:34 pm
Jacula

Yup!
11:34 pm
rururocks

I just bought a new TV and hardly use it
11:34 pm
westford

see you in a bit missed you all
11:35 pm
rururocks

bye west..
11:35 pm
rururocks

glad you finished
11:35 pm
Jacula

So many channels and so little you actually want to watch.
11:35 pm
Jacula

'Bye West.
11:35 pm
rururocks

I totally agree.
11:35 pm
rururocks

I pay for all this garbage for 4 or 5 channels I want to watch
11:36 pm
rururocks

it's so depressing what most of America watches
11:36 pm
rururocks

stupid macho - shoot them up .. blow them up plotless boring movies
11:37 pm
Jacula

We get a printed TV guide and I go through it to choose what I want to watch and mark it up. We get some really good dramas and documentaries here in UK and there are a lot of good things on US channels, too. You just need to be choosy.
11:37 pm
rururocks

I don't have the time really.. i'd rather read
11:37 pm
Jacula

I leave the shoot 'em up stuff to my other half.
11:38 pm
Jacula

I read, cook, write, socialise and fit in TV when I want a sit down.
11:38 pm
rururocks

yeah.. that's when I watch tv.. when I need down time
11:39 pm
rururocks

I'm writing an article for the local newspaper in the opinion column (hoping it gets printed) about Father's Day (upcoming next June)
11:40 pm
Jacula

I'd be interested to read that, ruru.
11:40 pm
Jacula

Good luck with it.
11:40 pm
rururocks

well.. if they accept it
11:40 pm
rururocks

sure.
11:41 pm
Jacula

If you keep it crisp and to the point you are more likely to get published.
11:41 pm
Jacula

You won't get edited then, either. :)
11:41 pm
rururocks

that's why I'm starting now.. will try to tighten it up and make it to the point
11:42 pm
Jacula

What made you want to write it?
11:43 pm
rururocks

i've been talking about the death of my father lately
11:44 pm
rururocks

how he wasn't a great father .. and just want to put it out there for other fathers to recognize what the day means .. really
11:44 pm
Jacula

Haven't seen that as I'm not often on chat these days. I'm sorry for your loss.
11:45 pm
rururocks

Not a problem Jac.. he died a while ago. We weren't close.. and hadn't spoken to each other in decades
11:45 pm
maggiej

any hints for ou 6/21?
11:45 pm
rururocks

not In + past tense of consume food
11:46 pm
Jacula

ruru - That's a good idea. Father's Day to me, since I lost m Dad (who was a good Dad) means seeing the reminders in shops, heading towards the cards and then being felled by rememering he's no longer here.
11:46 pm

11:46 pm
rururocks

I'll see how it goes.
11:47 pm
Jacula

Ruru - then write it you must! And don't be afraid to send it off.
11:48 pm
Jacula

Just writing it might be cathartic.
11:50 pm
rururocks

that's what I was thinking
11:50 pm
Jacula

So do it! xx
11:51 pm
rururocks

will do
11:51 pm
Jacula

Anyone need any last minute clues before the flip?
11:51 pm
rururocks

i'll give it my best shot
11:51 pm
Jacula

Way to go, ruru. xx
11:51 pm
rururocks

have a nice night jac.. i'll head out for a bit too
11:52 pm

11:52 pm
Jacula

It's morning here, ruru.
11:52 pm
rururocks

11:52 pm
Jacula

11:52 pm
rururocks

11:55 pm
rururocks

11:56 pm
Jacula

11:56 pm
rururocks

wow. I wish I could bake.. I suck at measuring
11:56 pm
rururocks

I'm a free spirit cook :D
11:56 pm
Jacula

I'm getting paid for making it, so it's got to be right.
11:57 pm
rururocks

wow.. nice
11:57 pm
rururocks

11:57 pm
rururocks

what's massive?
11:58 pm
Jacula

Blame my Mum - she's been showing off about my cake making skills.
11:58 pm
rururocks

Jacula
