1:05 am
grannyrose

hey stiddy
1:05 am
mcurlschool

wow stid you are up late!
1:06 am
stidmama

I am, mcurl, but was so sick I slept from 8 last night until noon today... Better now, so ate a little and will be asleep soon.
1:06 am
stidmama

how are you? I hope this cold of mine didn't get transferred to anyone else... Tom is okay so far, and so is Grant.
1:07 am
grannyrose

poor stid. xoxox
1:07 am
mcurlschool

you needed the rest then and I'm glad you feel better
1:08 am
rururocks

*note to self: start calling stid "sniffles"
1:08 am
stidmama

Yes, I did. But lost a perfectly good day! LOL will just take it easy again tomorrow and catch up on Monday.
1:08 am
stidmama

*coughs delicately in ruru's direction*
1:08 am
rururocks

*sprays bleach in sniffle's direction*
1:09 am
stidmama

thanks, ruru, your kindness will be long remembered *grin*
1:09 am
rururocks

don't mention it :D
1:11 am
stidmama

my Tom made me home-made cream soda! It is lovely for cool, rainy days like today. He will bottle the next batch of beer tomorrow... he is loving this foray into brewing.
1:12 am
rururocks

Sounds like he's hoppy
1:12 am
stidmama

I think so.
1:14 am
mcurlschool

my hubby loves to brew his own beer as well!
1:15 am
mcurlschool

I'll have to bring you a bottle of this last batch -- a Christmat Wit.
1:16 am
stidmama

It's a nice hobby -- thanks to Grant, Tom has rekindled this. I am not a very big beer drinker, but Tom has an appreciation for the chemistry. And I love the microbiology of it.
1:17 am
rururocks

I can't drink beer it gives me headaches
1:18 am
mcurlschool

I don't care for it either but D enjoys the brewing. He's hoping to eventually take the plunge and concoct his own recipe
1:19 am
stidmama

I found that the gluten-free beers are more palatable for me, perhaps because they are wheat-free. I also know that I am not all that fond of hops. :-) Someday, I want to try mead...
1:21 am
gapeach

May I please have a clue for any 'ar' word? Thanks
1:21 am
rururocks

well.. that kind of eliminates a lot of beers stid :D
1:22 am
rururocks

ar + not pencil
1:22 am
gapeach

Thanks much, ru.
1:23 am
rururocks

yqw peachie
1:23 am
stidmama

it really does, ruru - I have a few favorites from the "Standing Stone" brewery in Ashland, and a couple GF brands, but otherwise I avoid beers.
1:23 am
rururocks

I have friends that live in Ashland I should ask them if they've tried it
1:25 am
stidmama

I suspect they have, they are a very good restaurant. We always take my grandfather there when we visit. :-D
1:27 am
rururocks

I kind of like that area.. it is a bit hippie-ish though
1:28 am
stidmama

Yes, it is. But that is why it is comfortable for me -- and my grandparents. They once lived on a commune a little ways north of Ashland, but when they got older they needed access to more services. Because of the free spirits, the town has many restaurants that are safe for me to eat in!
1:30 am
rururocks

I bought a nice jacket there a few years ago.. visiting my friends..nice weather there
1:31 am
stidmama

maybe someday we can meet up there -- catch a couple plays, NOT drink lithia water *classic yuck face* and enjoy the scenery.
1:33 am
rururocks

maybe
1:34 am
rururocks

there's good music there too in the big theater..
1:35 am
stidmama

:-) sounds like a possibility, then.
1:35 am
stidmama

well, I am down to 50. I think I will head out and leave the rest for tomorrow.
1:35 am
stidmama

**choclits for all**

*poof*

I think its a conspiracy. Must be. How many times have you been mising one word from a tile and then you check the list and its a 4 letter word that you KNOW 100% that you entered first.
3:48 am

poor zooz....it's not your fault....you are probably typing faster than enable. your word is good.
3:49 am

oh, my, dachef....too true
3:49 am

gremlins in the keyboard!
Yeah, that happens a lot. With me, it is either a typo, or words entered during a lag or the hiccup.

read back some. Zooz I met my fiance on Plenty of Fish online dating 8 year ago. I went through a few throw backs, but then i only met for coffee. Online dating allows you to begin the weeding process even before you meet.
6:10 am

Yes, and good for you, but online dating is not for everyone
6:12 am

I have several friends who tried it and had very bad experiences
6:13 am
suefrad625

yes molly, that is why i kept it to coffee for 1/2 hr.
6:14 am
suefrad625

i just dont drink and drive or want to meat anyone at the singles church thing. and i did not misspell meet.
6:15 am
suefrad625

i seems that here in the south where i live, you have to drive everywhere, meeting someone is harder then in NY.
6:15 am
MollyL

And that is a smart thing to do. I have seen many versions of on line meetings, be they dates or just friend things, that rush right into overnight visits. And that can turn into something very uncomfortable with someone you have never met in person.
6:16 am
mattygroves

Thanks Molly. Could have sworn I'd tried that

lol in this game, you never know what will work.
6:18 am
MollyL

Well, not just hit and run between men and women. I see people arranging to meet friends on line all the time and the first meeting is an overnight stay at their house. And it can turn into an awkward thing if the people in question are not the friendship match in person that they were on line.
6:19 am
suefrad625

That could end up in death. No, i just mean it a nice way to meet a potential partner. I did end up with a great many friends, end still cherish them.

Well the guy called and canceled, so i called Dale to see what he was doing. He was at the hospital in my town with his son, who was moving and smashed his toe, so i asked if while he was waiting we could meet. he said he was a mess and would meet later. I told him i had just gave my x's dog 5 flea and tick bathes and was a mess also. we met and i fell for him right then.

no, joseph - as far as I'm concerned, only actually spelling out the clue ("third vowel") is verboten, but everyone has their style. Molly's is the more challenging and it's good to start with that if you can.

Ah! Nice word - te 6/21. My son had a girlfriend who he used to call Te 6/21. Or 'The Te6/21'. He steadfastly refused to tell me why he called her that. She was neither short nor stout....
6:57 am
jwr

I don't see that, Molly, since "3rd vowel" or "20th letter of the alphabet" is an exact letter but an asterisk can be anything.
6:57 am

well, any letter ...

Molly, I agree that giving a definition (the cleverer, the better) is the best way to go and you're good at it, but sometimes it doesn't work, especially with cross-cultural vocabulary, slang or less familiar professional jargon. The person seeking the clue can always ask again, which is what happened with your reptile clue.
7:10 am
crosshair

Good thing about cluing is that if you find it too informative, you can always turn the chat off until you get stuck. I tend to clue by definition, or a clever witty-style clue, but that is just me
7:10 am
crosshair

There is no hard fast rule on it:)
7:10 am
suefrad625

bye gwen
7:13 am

Exactly, crossy. And putting the clue into context, as Joseph did, seems to be an acceptable as well - at least, I see it here most frequently. Of course, there's no hard/fast rule; that was my point.
7:13 am

I will apologize, however, for using the word 'verboten' as far as "3rd vowel" is concerned, though I can't see how that could be considered a "clue" for anyone who knows the English alphabet and can count up to five.

no, sue - I am guilty of bringing up the subject, but it is a pet peeve and I acknowledge it. Crossy spoke about turning off the chat, but I'm a very fast reader (usually I'm at work -- can do anything including play Babble when not answering phones) so I duck in and my eye catches the spell-out so-called clue - and there goes my fun. The only reason I come in at all is to chat, anyway. I am rarely a finisher, in fact, after over ten years playing.

I have been playing babble for 7 years now, and I used to fuss and fret over the small issues in addition to killing myself by trying to finish the grid each and every day, but now I am more relaxed about things. i take each grid as it come and take the clues for what they are--a kind offer of assistance and leave it at that. Half the enjoyment I get out of the game these days involves the chat anyways

if you use dryer sheets they coat the lint trap and makes airflow an issue and your clothing starts taking longer to dry. I, for the past month, have starting using two balls of tinfoil to ground the static and washed the lint trap. it has been working beautifully. I also took the took the lawn blower and but it over the lint trap and then took the back hose off and blew it there and what a difference. the clothing dries much faster.
8:08 am

There are so many things about dryer sheets that are not good for your clothes or your dryer.

When you're using a laundry room, it's always a good idea to clean the lint trap before using. You never know who was drying what before you.

I price things very low and don't usually go any lower. I tell people, "No, I think this is a fair price". If they don't buy it, I don't care and will just donate it. By the time I decide to get rid of things, I've decided they are worthless to me.

there is that
4:55 pm

and i do have some leftover birthday cake in my freezer
4:56 pm

Maybe it was the workout you got last night

4:57 pm

well, i am certainly out of shape in that department, this has not been a good year for dating
4:57 pm

yet another reason i am ready to go to chicago
5:02 pm
iluvtigs

whats in chicago?
5:02 pm
pippingeek

i have some good friends and family there, and am hoping to get into school there
5:03 pm
iluvtigs

oh was just wondering since i live there
5:03 pm
pippingeek

but also it's just better for social life and dating than nyc
5:03 pm
iluvtigs

what school are you looking to attend
5:04 pm
pippingeek

aha! i like it there. i am still waiting to hear from northwestern's physician assistant program, crossing my fingers!
5:05 pm
iluvtigs

nice very good school
5:05 pm
iluvtigs

i went to university of illinois in chicago
5:05 pm
pippingeek

nice, one of my friends teaches marine biology stuff there
5:05 pm
iluvtigs

they also have a great medical program there
5:12 pm
pippingeek

they do! if only they had a PA program...
5:13 pm
iluvtigs

well my daughter majored in biology with a minor in chiemistry now she has an excellent job with a pharmaceutical company here in illinos
5:13 pm
MollyL

Wait, wait, Chicago is better for dating than New York?
5:14 pm
iluvtigs

well people are friendly here lol
5:15 pm
pippingeek

i would say for women, and for what i am looking for, yes. the ratio is not skewed in my favor, and mewn tend to be on the lookout for the next better thing, it's a frequent complaint i hear
5:16 pm
iluvtigs

well im old and all past that stuff lol
5:16 pm
pippingeek

and people here in general don't have a ton of time to meet up, and want to go out and do things that cost money, as opposed to just hanging out which is more common in chicago
5:18 pm
iluvtigs

but better to get to know someone by interacting and hanging out together

5:26 pm
pippingeek

tuesday i will call my 2 backup schools that i have not yet heard from and offer them my latest transcripts and tell them i hope i am still in contention. maybe that will tell them i am serious since that's the only reason i can think that they never contacted me
5:27 pm
Scrabbler

Such uncertainty and stress for you.
5:27 pm
pippingeek

and if i don't get in i move to chicago anyway so that it's easier to apply a second year and not travel for interviews, and i guess potentially broaden my net
5:28 pm
pippingeek

not a big fan of the uncertainly, but it'll turn out if it's meant to be, and i will find a way to make it happen

The ocean is 27 C today - never heard of it that warm in the 6 years I've lived here and our pool was like a bath at 32 C yesterday!!!
