9:33 am

rururocks

*nominates Doren for Grandma of the year award*

I"m sticking with my nomination

9:37 am

Dorens

9:38 am

welki

9:41 am

rururocks

looking forward to seeing you D.. only a few weeks now

9:41 am

(all the vegans in babble, just choked)

9:47 am

welki

i've never had it - i had turtles as pets when i was a kid, don't think i could

9:47 am

rururocks

I surely couldn't

9:48 am

welki

should say, i had one turtle. elvis. my mother flushed him down the toilet "by accident." (parakeet was vacuumed into the hoover "by accident.") seems to have been a pattern

9:48 am

welki

good thing we didn't have horses

9:48 am

rururocks

oh jesus

9:49 am

rururocks

did she date ted bundy or something?

9:50 am

rururocks

whoa..

9:51 am

phaeton

9:52 am

welki

welki

*whew* okay then - next meet-up and it's popcorn, milk duds and a loop of 'mommy dearest' *lol*

9:56 am

welki

oh crap - maybe we really ARE related!

9:57 am

rururocks

I can't watch Mommy Dearest. especially one scene

9:58 am

welki

there are several disturbing scenes - ugh.

10:00 am

rururocks

10:00 am

10:00 am

11:01 am

Freeman

It seems I am driving everyone crazy. But I don't think anyone as clued the un7/36 the clue was for the un7/40. If it was for the un7/36 it would have to be un+dr5/12
