Judi

Good morning, all. Well I was far too productive this morning. Had to get up early to go to the lab for some blood work. Got home, did a load of laundry, emptied the dishwasher, cleaned the outside dryer lvent, scooped the cat boxes. Jeesh. I'm ready to go back to bed.

8:45 am

Judi

Bangs go4/8. Hello? Hello? Anybody awake?

hokie carla

8:48 am

Judi

Wow. You are up too early for vacation time, Chris.

8:48 am

hokie carla

speaking of CA, has anyone heard from ruru

8:50 am

Judi

I believe as of yesterday the fires were not near him, however, that could change soon.

8:51 am

hokie carla

yeah, I saw that yesterday. not sure what happened overnight.

8:52 am

Judi

I heard they were going to shut the power off for 48 hours. Oy.

8:56 am

Scrabbler

ruru was here yesterday morning.

8:57 am

chrisk

They are shutting off power in selected locations due to fear of equipment malfunctions starting new fires. It's been very hot in the San Diego area - upper 80's but the fires are much farther north

Go Nats! Go Nats!

9:33 am

dan2bit

Go Nats! I think the pent up fan base + Greinke pitching was too much for them yesterday. High hopes for tonight though

9:34 am

Scrabbler

Another championship team for DC would be amazing.

9:35 am

Scrabbler

We are still waiting here in Buffalo.

9:35 am

dan2bit

9:41 am

Scrabbler

in7= another word for a number. Ends with eg4

9:41 am

MLFAN17

My mom and her "b/f" have been watching the baseball games She has never been interested before. I guess its because of the DC team

9:42 am

MollyL

Do a Google search on the opposite of a whole number. Scroll down.

9:47 am

MLFAN17

which one molly..the more adult book which I think is a b c something?

9:49 am

MollyL

The Gi6 Tree. It teaches a terrible lesson about gi6 so much that you have nothing left for yourself. And how selfish people, like the little boy, will just take and take and take.

9:50 am

MLFAN17

ohhhhh I forgot about that one

9:50 am

Dorens

sounds like my brother and me :D

9:52 am

MollyL

I would guess many people have or have had relationships like that. Especially women. Which reminds me of another book "Women Who Love Too Much".

9:52 am

Scrabbler

Hey Doren

10:59 am

hurshy

which is a native american (i think Inca?) way of recording history with like knots in a string or something

11:02 am

rururocks

that wasn't a binding track of time however

11:03 am

The Official Phantom of the Day is: Invigilate

11:10 am

MollyL

I would love the Fall a lot more if it didn't mean that winter is coming

11:11 am

BzznBea

Me too, Molly. It is lovely out today.

11:11 am

MollyL

I got the Halloween decorations out of the storage closet today, saw the snow shovels and gagged

11:12 am

SamanthaJoy

Today? Most people I know had them up on the first

11:12 am

BzznBea

I'm taking a break from getting the houseplants back in the house. It will be a jungle in here.

11:12 am

SamanthaJoy

Halloween is popular among my friends

11:13 am

rururocks

you should though bea.. it means your husband could run around the house in a loin cloth

11:13 am

BzznBea

My mom loves Halloween decorations! I have a couple totes as well. =)

11:14 am

BzznBea

LOL! No one wants to see that, ru...

11:15 am

MollyL

I don't participate in decorating months in advance. It takes the fun out of enjoying the decorations. I have never understood putting Christmas decorations up the day after Thanksgiving. I would be sick of them by Christmas.

11:16 am

SamanthaJoy

It takes all kinds

11:16 am

hurshy

personally, i have zero interest in halloween, so i just use the entire fall to feel thanksgiving/harvesty

11:16 am

SamanthaJoy

I don't decorate, full stop, but I appreciate people who do

11:17 am

BzznBea

I have fall decorations, Halloween decorations and Thanksgiving decorations. Most fall is up the entire time.

11:18 am

BzznBea

Molly, it takes me a couple weeks to get Christmas decorating done, so I try to start the first weekend in December.

11:18 am

MollyL

I'm like Bea. The Fall stuff goes up on the first day of Fall and kind of lives through Halloween and Thanksgiving.

11:18 am

hurshy

here is a really obscure NTPN...

11:19 am

hurshy

name that proper noun! Caroline Ingalls' maiden name

11:19 am

MollyL

I would decorate like that too, Bea. If I had a bigger place. Since my place is small, it only takes a weekend.

11:19 am

MollyL

*Imagines Hurshy's house as a shrine to Little House On The Prairie.

11:20 am

hurshy

lol - it isn't. i have a Wall of Honor with pics of all people i like who have influenced my life, and Laura is among them, but that's it

11:20 am

BzznBea

14 left...back to work...

11:21 am

SamanthaJoy

I've been stuck for a while. Time to get to and take a break. See y'all later, and bye Bzz!
