1:17 am

zoozzoom

Hello eveyone :-)

1:18 am

zoozzoom

There are plenty of them about, Sprite lol

1:18 am

sprite

zooz! *hugs* Hello dear man, it's been ages. How've you been? And how are the parents?

1:18 am

sprite

true, zooz! Not here in babble though :)

1:21 am

zoozzoom

I am still plodding along lol Parents are okayish. Still having the what do you want to eat today...I don't know then he will look at my mother and say what are you having....I don't know what are you having..And they always have the same thing every single day... She will now only eat microwave chips with a bit of cheese on and he will only eat sausages & mash potato.

1:21 am

zoozzoom

How are you keeping these days?

1:22 am

sprite

aw yeah, the repetition. It gives them comfort. Might drive others bananas though, grin. Good to hear you are okay.

1:23 am

sprite

I am pretty well. Survived a confrontation with my father without a scratch. Off this weekend for a retreat of the overeaters anonymous. Trying to tackle the eating disorder once again... :)

1:24 am

sprite

yay, finally managed to use the -guys ending

1:25 am

zoozzoom

Oh wow Hope you stuck up for yourself I know that must of been a nightmare for you. Good on you for tackling your disorder. Small steps are better than trying to do big leaps. (that is not me trying to give advice) :-)

1:26 am

zoozzoom

Yes i have a couple of those endings.

1:26 am

sprite

lolol it is GOOD advice, actually. I am always trying to run before I can walk.

1:28 am

sprite

am a bit nervous about the weekend, not used to being in big groups of people, and especially not to sleeping with 8 in a room. But I can definitely use the inspiration and support, so I am going. No matter how nervous I get.

1:28 am

sprite

hiya Nanette

1:30 am

zoozzoom

Okay my time is up for now. Nice to catch up with you, Sprite! I don/t normally have the chat on when I start as I like to get as many words as possible before I go to parents then I putit on and say how many words i have found and go lol

rubyfoo

7:16 pm

rururocks

Bet she streams Devil wears Prada every other week

7:17 pm

MollyL

Because it won so many Emmy awards, and I subscribe to Hulu, I watched some of "The Handmaid's Tale" tonight. One of the creepiest things I have ever seen on television.

7:28 pm

rururocks

Don't know about that one

7:29 pm

rururocks

I am relaxing with a glass of champagne right now

7:30 pm

rururocks

Maybe two. It is pretty good

7:30 pm

MollyL

Don't bother with it unless you are into a seriously creepy story. I won't be watching anymore of it.

7:31 pm

rururocks

I tend to not like creepy

7:31 pm

rururocks

Although i love The Shining

7:32 pm

rururocks

That was pretty creepy

7:33 pm

MollyL

I like Elizabeth Moss. She was great in The West Wing and Mad Men. Top Of The Lake and The Handmaid's Tale are just batshit weird.

7:34 pm

MollyL

Speaking of Stephen King, I saw the "It" movie last weekend. A movie date with my kids. That is creepy too, but I like Stephen King creepy.

7:35 pm

Elle n

Been doing Babble a while now but never got into the chat....you guys seem way to smart for me ...but couldn't ignore a conversation about Top of the Lake. There's a second season now.

7:38 pm

hoyamd

peri are you still looking for that re6/21?

7:39 pm

hoyamd

i read the handmaids tale. creepy, but i hardly think it's a "cautionary tale" as is being touted.

7:42 pm

rururocks

Elle. I don't know about way too smart here

7:44 pm

rururocks

Is IT the creepy clown movie?

7:51 pm

hoyamd

yes. its only the first half of the book, though, when the main characters are kids. i guess if the movie does well, they'll do the second half, when the kids grow up

7:58 pm

rururocks

Oh

9:20 pm

Dorens

Speaking of creepy movies, has anyone seen Mother! ?

9:20 pm

SamanthaJoy

I've heard literally nothing good about it.

9:23 pm

Dorens

I saw it the other day. I actually liked it. But it certainly was strange.

10:10 pm

rururocks

Mother in my case would be very scary
