good morning my dearest.i wont stay too long. very weepy, eyes burning....i think it's the ketamine blues....not much pain, except for one spot on the left gluteus-feels like i've have 3omls of paraldahyde....
1:04 am
sprite
*hugs rose long and warmly*
1:04 am
grannyrose
if anyone here remembers that wretched stuff.
1:04 am
sprite
great to see you, and sorry to hear you are weepy. Coming down from the ketamine is a lady dog, to say the least.
1:04 am
grannyrose
it was so lethal you had to use glass syringes for it.
1:06 am
grannyrose
i was having a great day until DH rang me and said i guess we have to cancel the podiatrist, in that panicky voice he has...remember.
1:06 am
sprite
ugh yeah, I remember. And why did he think yu had to cancel?
1:07 am
grannyrose
well i rushed myself through the shower, managing to ex-canulate myself , as yoy do, blood every where, me in tears, poor nurse duidn't know where to start.
1:08 am
grannyrose
because it was 12 midday, and he hadn't left tp pick me up yet... my fault of course, for being there in the first place.
1:08 am
sprite
aw sweetie... I wish his moodswings did not hit you so hard. He is a bit immature in some respects...
1:09 am
sprite
next time you tell him: "I will take a cab." And hang up the darn phone. Jeezzz it is about freakin' time the Donster grows up.
1:09 am
grannyrose
we were ten minutes late and he started to gesticulate me into the chair first, and all i could say through clenched teeth was... just get in the goddamned chair....
1:10 am
grannyrose
AND she finished us both with 3 minutes to spare of our appointment time...
1:11 am
sprite
so once again no need at all for a Donster tantrum... guess you need a few tools to handle this kind of upheaval... we will talk about it when you guys are here :D
1:12 am
grannyrose
now here i am sitting here with my bestie, with an axe to grind and not a honing stone in sight...of course i could use DH's head
1:13 am
grannyrose
thank you honey, and thanx to the lurkers, for allowing me the time to let off steam...
1:13 am
sprite
*giggles* You know I love the man. AND sometimes I wish I could kick him in the heinie. For crying out loud... he should be over those adolescent tantrums
1:15 am
grannyrose
if you will pardon me a few mins, i have some crackers and dip calling me....and anotheglass of you know what...in fact, make it a bucket
1:15 am

after stuff like that you need to vent for a bit, especially when you are already a bit wobbly as a result of all the medical procedures
1:15 am
grannyrose
uggghhh, sorry
1:16 am
sprite
lol well okay, if you feel that strongly about it, I will give you a few minutes for a pantry raid... :D :D
1:18 am

*smug* left column greyed out
1:19 am
grannyrose
back....
1:19 am
grannyrose
no more about me...how are you feeling about the little set back with the plaster?
1:20 am
sprite
am okay now. It is what it is, and all I can do is accept it.
1:21 am
grannyrose
if we rented an automatic, would you be able to drive if needed?
1:22 am
sprite
I think I will be able to drive... in the rental with the automatic transmission, that is. Walking... well, we will have to see about that. Probably not for long stretches yet. Do you think the Donster is willing to push my wheelchair?
1:23 am
grannyrose
i'm sure he is, and if he doesn't well i'll give it my very best shot. would be like my wheelie walker.
1:23 am
sprite
lol I can navigate myself when on even ground too... we will see. Somehow we will manage, and no matter what, we will have a grand ole time together.
1:24 am
grannyrose
and i will have you for ballast
1:24 am
sprite
what are your meal arrangements with the hotel, btw?
1:24 am
sprite
I am great at being ballast, LOL

1:26 am
grannyrose
we will play it by ear for the first few days and when settled in start some sort of regime
1:26 am
sprite
please let me know once you know. Or let me know what you would like them to be. We can cook for you a couple of times, and I wouldn't mind extending the meal service we use for you guys either.
1:28 am

playing it by ear is fine too.

1:37 am
grannyrose
last night, about the ice?? that was for real.... the nurses had the strait jackets out ready, and i could stop laughing, they were on the verge of ringing john...
1:37 am
grannyrose
*couldn't*
1:38 am
sprite
aw sweetie... you were kind of out of it for sure.
1:38 am
grannyrose
at least i know now i don't get nasty on the stuff...but for pete's sake, who makes sangria without ice??
1:39 am
grannyrose
and where was the key?? all of a sudden the door was unlocked... i tell you it was a conspiracy.
1:40 am
sprite
hehehe they will remember you for a lonnnnnng time
1:40 am
grannyrose
*smug grin* yup that's for sure
1:42 am
sprite
one of the nurses in the hospital remembered me too... "Oh you are the one with the two feet in casts and the endless banter and smile." Not a bad epitaph.
1:43 am
grannyrose
lolll yeah...
1:44 am
sprite
any word from belgium yet?
1:47 am
grannyrose
nah, i must email her again before easter hits...for me that means almost bedlam... don't get me wrong, o love every second of it.
1:50 am
grannyrose
it's nice to be remembered by your smile and laughter. i had two visits from two different pastoral care workers, and the irish woman who plays her guitar and sings beautifully. she saw my name on the board and came straight in to visit me.
1:51 am
sprite
aw that is wonderful
1:52 am
grannyrose
dan came to his nephew's 13th birthday party on the weekend. i am so proud of him. he held his own against his nay-sayer uncles. gave them as good as the gave him. but much more politely.
1:53 am
sprite
wooooot wtg Dan!
1:54 am
grannyrose
i must email him. i meant to do so but everything sort of kaleidoscoped on me..
1:54 am
sprite
it's been a pretty intense couple of weeks for you
1:56 am
grannyrose
dan's wife, Lisa and my bro's fiancee, Yui both were flabbergasted by how we all get along, laughing, chatting, etc. it did get rather loud too.not for the faint-hearted, a gathering of the Wilson mob. loll
1:58 am
sprite
absolutely wonderful. Rock 'n' roll is NEVER too loud :)
1:59 am
grannyrose

2:00 am
grannyrose
toes are a-tapping, arms are out-stretched....
2:02 am
grannyrose
no tut this time.... maybe a daffodil, just to make you stand out farther, as if you need to do so..
2:02 am
sprite
guess I am gonna sit down later today and make me a list of things to get done before you guys arrive
2:02 am
grannyrose
ugh... my typing...*tutu*
2:02 am
sprite
roflolollllll no, no tutu, cannot take it away from our neighbour girl. She'd be devastated.
2:02 am
grannyrose
just make sure the potty is empty....
2:04 am
sprite
you will have to use the canoe club's potty. Unless I can get Rob to get the chemical toilet going... will see what I can do.
2:05 am
grannyrose
yeah..... don' want to stink up the caravan, that's for sure...
2:06 am
grannyrose
here's a thought... put it out in the road....no spillage problem there....and what the headlights miss, no-one is going to care... they will be blind anyway.
2:07 am
sprite
it is more relaxed to use the canoe club's toilet, but in case of panic, it would be nice if you could 'go' closer by.
2:08 am
grannyrose
can just picture it...radiant white ass lit up delicately by the high beams of a passing car... no honking allowed
2:09 am
sprite
while on the road, we can stop at any gas station. They are close together in the netherlands, no worries.
2:11 am

Explanation for the slang for hat. In Cockney rhyming slang, a stairs is 'Apples & Pears', cash is 'sausage & mash', Ruby Murray means curry, and a hat is known as a 'tit for tat', or a ti 6/27, in a Cockney accent. Thus endeth today's lesson. You're welcome!

I've come out of lurkdom to beg for last word -- to6,21-- I I Promise to give requested clues after!
6:28 pm
hokie carla
I just got it. it's a past tense.
6:29 pm
hokie carla
it means to add or total up. think of another word for a kid and then pretend that's a verb and make it past tense
6:35 pm
libarebel
That's the 5?? Confused...
6:37 pm
hokie carla
the 6 has an extra cons. in the middle
6:39 pm
libarebel
TY, hokie! FW!!! how could I miss it?

6:46 pm
hokie carla
what about the ti 6/27?
6:46 pm
MollyL
I wouldn't say that is an "ugh" word. Sometimes they are hard to see. And words we don't use in conversation. My brain doesn't see those, usually.
6:47 pm
libarebel
I monkeyed that one...
6:47 pm
hokie carla
the fact is a lot of words could be re words and it just seems random what is considered one and what isn't
6:48 pm
libarebel
Ti-- breast _ 1st 3 of little beasti-- ***ett
6:49 pm

From earlier chat, the ti 6/27 is a British slang word for hat. I had never heard of it either.
