12:59 am

dcseain

I'm gradually settling into the new-to-me apartment in Arlington, Virginia.

12:59 am

dcseain

Hit three pharmacies today to get my precliptions sorted. But at least that is sorted.

1:00 am

sprite

hello seain

1:01 am

dcseain

hi, sprite!

1:01 am

sprite

good to hear you are starting to feel at home too

1:02 am

dcseain

the nurse chose the wrong pharmacy due to choosing the one on South Glebe Rd when I'd asked for the one on North Glebe Rd, which is much closer to me. But as things, it's not too big a deal, if inconvenient.

1:02 am

dcseain

and this 80 year old is the first place I've felt truly at home in.

1:02 am

rururocks

Are precliptions a quick hair cut?

1:03 am

dcseain

I'm tired. My typing starts to fail when I'm tired.

1:03 am

dcseain

how're you ru?

1:03 am

rururocks

1:08 am

sprite

cruising it Sprite. taking my time. resting as much as possible between takes...lol it helps that gym classes are not happening as it is also school holidays. tomorrow we begin the gallop into the straight.

sprite

1:56 am

sprite

Juno is here atm, we are going with her to the echo place. Caya had to work today, so Rob is driving and I will go in with Juno

1:58 am

grannyrose

i'm so glad you are there to support them. are they anxious about the echo?

1:59 am

sprite

yeah, and it is another doctor than the last times, so that makes it a little more stressful. Still, amazing amount of eggs, things are going very well. Friday is the operation.

2:03 am

grannyrose

i will be praying for them. please tell them. does Caya have the day off on Friday? it is a public holiday here for everyone. even those who don't believe in the Easter story.

2:06 am

sprite

will do. I believe Friday is an elective public holiday here, employers may decide whether or not to make it one. But yes, Caya will go with Juno, for sure, even if she has to take off time from school. She would have today too, but they are working with a skeletal crew atm, there are only 4 teachers left who are not down with flu, burnout or other illnesses.

2:06 am

grannyrose

brb. got the munchies. going to get the 'right' food before i get desperate and just grab anything. keep moving. i like the look of that thigh of yours. lol

2:07 am

sprite

very tasty, it is true, Spoken for though.

2:08 am

grannyrose

never mind. Don is going to the kitchen. so no temptation for me.

2:09 am

1:23 pm

hokie carla

well, I love SF but have heard it's not the same as it used to be

1:23 pm

moolingwa

I'm a bit north of Denver

1:23 pm

hokie carla

denver - you might accidentally run into moo

1:24 pm

moolingwa

I've spent a lot of time in SF tho

1:26 pm

Actually I moved there because of a girl

1:27 pm

hokie carla

I've only been to SF twice but loved it both times

1:27 pm

hokie carla

wow, moved across the world for a girl?

1:27 pm

moolingwa

1:27 pm

welki

i was referring to 'unca buck *lol*

1:27 pm

moolingwa

yeah

1:27 pm

hokie carla

haha, welki

1:28 pm

4:28 pm

welki

playing catch up - spent a good part of the day tuning up instruments, bought a peg winder and it made a huge difference

4:29 pm

moolingwa

I'm not sure I'd even know how to start to tune an instrument :)

4:30 pm

welki

it takes some time and patience. i've been doing it a long time - and had two "bad" strings in the bunch - first time that's ever happened.

4:30 pm

moolingwa

what kind of instruments are you tuning?

4:31 pm

welki

guitars and ukeleles

4:31 pm

moolingwa

4:31 pm

4:38 pm

moolingwa

4:38 pm

moolingwa

4:39 pm

moolingwa

4:43 pm

welki
