12:20 am

sprite

thanks so much, Lickety. Morning babblers

12:28 am

justafreep

Thanks, lickety. And hi, Sprite

12:28 am

sprite

hi freep! Wasn't it rude from the babble gods, to interrupt our convo the other day?

12:28 am

justafreep

It was

12:29 am

justafreep

I tried entering chats and words. Then I just decided we were continuing the conversation over drinks at the Red Bar

12:29 am

cybernan

enough for tonight - will be on my way before the red bars hit. Good night :)

12:30 am

justafreep

Night, nan

12:30 am

sprite

we definitely were. At all the Red Bars in the vicinity

1:02 am

grannyrose

cooee sprite. how is my besty doing today? did you have a good night?

1:02 am

sprite

hi sweetie, I slept okayish. much better than the night before. And you? How's the warzone developing?

1:04 am

grannyrose

i have had a wonderful pity pa5. tears etc. he is totally oblivious. however some of my equilibrium has returned. i think i'll stick around for a bit longer. had some pretty dark thoughts most of the day.

1:05 am

sprite

how come he is oblivious? He needs to know.

1:05 am

sprite

and listen to me, my darling: you will kick his ass out before you do dark things, you hear!

1:06 am

grannyrose

simply can't face it myself honey. you know how he twists every thing around to it being my fault.

1:08 am

sprite

so you allow yourself to be intimidated out of fear of his bullying? Omg honey, so he has won already? He doesn't even have to do it anymore, you lie down and whimper? You have WAY too much spirit for that. So you don't feel like fighting. Just tell him how it is gonna be and then walk away, saying you don't need to hear him twisting your words and to come back when he can listen

1:09 am

grannyrose

just call me Matt. that's okay.

1:10 am

sprite

nope, that is everything but okay. Stand up right now, sweetie. Connect with that incredibly strong woman you are.

1:12 am

grannyrose

simply cannot do it Sprite. utterly spent. i'll stick around until he has recovered from his surgery. then... not sure what will happen.

1:13 am

sprite

damn it, I need to be there. He needs his butt kicked and you need a good shaking. Jeezzzzzzz

1:13 am

sprite

and yeah, I hear ya. Not much sense in being in a relationship where this keeps happening. If there is no growth into the right direction...

1:16 am

grannyrose

it's nice to know what one's value is. mine is less than $1300 apparently. fortunately in Australia there is a lot of support for women in my situation. i know where to go for help.

1:16 am

sprite

your value is impossible to express in money. If he doesn't realize, he isn't worth you. It is as simple as that.

1:18 am

rururocks

Is Don being an idiot?

1:19 am

grannyrose

the blinds were $1300. and they were more important than my needs. or is he so spineless that he cannot be assertive enough to say that the day the supplier offered was not appropriate?

1:19 am

sprite

so... dig up the anger and let it flow through you, honey. Not the victim thing, that is NOT you. If he has been grinding you down to this point, it's gone too far already. Stand up, feel me standing right next to you and know you deserve the best

1:20 am

sprite

it doesn't matter why he did it. The fact is, he shouldn't have done it. If he knows you need him at that time, he should be with you

1:20 am

grannyrose

that's what i thought too sprite.

1:21 am

sprite

and you were right to think so. He is wrong to not do it. Clear?

1:21 am

grannyrose

the anger is gone.just filled with sorrow. and yes, self-pity.

1:22 am

sprite

I know. I am trying to beat your sweet little ass out of the self-pity, it's not helping you.

1:26 am

sprite

have you ordered a taxi yet for the exercise place? YOu are going, with or without the blasted guy

1:27 am

grannyrose

ruru, i'm not ignoring you mate. the church approved to purchase of blackout blinds, which Don will find extremely useful as he shows movies, free. to parishioners. the supplier said that they wanted to instal them today which is my hydro therapy day. Don knows that quite well. he simply decided i could do without my program so that the blinds could be installed without him even trying to have the day changed.

1:27 am

sprite

yes, Don is being a bloody idiot. Hi ru, sorry, missed your post

1:28 am

grannyrose

too late now sprite. it's nearly 6:30pm. class was 4 hours ago.

1:28 am

sprite

ugh. Well, order a taxi for the next one. Tell Don he will not get a chance to be in your way again. And to take care of himself from now on. Jeez.

1:33 am

sprite

is he with you now? Or can I call you?

1:34 am

sprite

fireflies too, in the meantime. So pissed the words flew out of my fingers

1:34 am

grannyrose

he's with me in the room. give me a few to move .

ChampFit

yep

7:23 am

dejavu

weird

7:43 am

crosshair

They are great friends and find comfort sharing their worries and concerns here. Though I only know grannyrose via this game, if sharing her problems with the Babble family gives her ease of mind then I will not begrudge it.

7:46 am

EvaNadine

many people have played this game for YEARS (decades, even) and developed deep, strong friendships.

7:46 am

crosshair

Indeed.

8:09 am

crosshair

Just finished watching Sons of Anarchy series, and it was very, very good. Now watching Justified series. Both are excellent.

8:09 am

hokie carla

I loved Justified

8:11 am

hokie carla

I grew up just a little over an hour from Harlan and my dad always said it was the meanest place in the country. not sure he ever went to chicago or philly, but that's what he said.

8:13 am

crosshair

I have lived in many small towns in my life, and can testify that they can be calm on the outside but have a meanchaotic

8:14 am

crosshair

...mean chaotic undercurrent.

8:15 am

crosshair

Sometimes the being a nameless face in a big city can be a nice break from everyone knowing your name.

8:16 am

crosshair

Though I hate big cities. Just driving through Toronto give me the jitters. :/

8:18 am

hokie carla

we were in a large city for almost 30 years, but the last 14 were in a suburb that was just like a small town. mr. homie gets the jitters any time we go back. and when we get back here he says "back to the bubble".

11:11 am

hurshy

or was it called Ea7

11:11 am

hokie carla

ea7

11:11 am

hokie carla

buffy can hear everyone's thoughts

11:11 am

hurshy

like What Women Want only not gendered

11:12 am

hokie carla

if you never watched buffy I suggest you remedy that!

11:12 am

hurshy

i watched the original movie

11:12 am

hurshy

with Luke Perry

11:12 am

hokie carla

oh the show is 1000x better

11:13 am

hokie carla

I forgot he was in that

11:14 am

hurshy

man, these different A tiles are driving me nuts

11:14 am

hokie carla

my prelim this morning left me with 3 + 4 + 1 A

11:14 am

hokie carla

oh, there's one

11:15 am

hurshy

oooh top A has an AS8

11:15 am

hokie carla

there's spanish rice

11:15 am

penquis

2 -- 4 --- 0 here...

11:15 am

hurshy

ah thanks

11:15 am

hurshy

wait that didn't work

11:15 am

hokie carla

haha

11:16 am

hurshy

isn't it "arroz"?

11:16 am

hokie carla

yes

11:16 am

hokie carla

it's not on enable

11:16 am

hurshy

oh you were just commenting on it being there, not saying it counted

11:16 am

penquis

ty, carla...

11:16 am

hokie carla

I was just saying it's here

11:16 am

hurshy

you tricked me

11:17 am

hokie carla

you tricked yourself!

11:17 am

hokie carla

is the as8 normal?

11:17 am

hurshy

i think you bear at least partial responsibility

11:17 am

hurshy

as8 is normal if you have a decent vocabulary

11:17 am

hokie carla

guess I have to say "name that foreign word that doesn't count"

11:18 am

penquis

yes, i found it relatively quickly once i had the stat....

11:18 am

hokie carla

anyone else seeing coyote?

11:18 am

hurshy

i don't want to know how many millions of american adults do not know as8

11:18 am

hurshy

i usually say "name that foreign noun!" hokie lol

11:18 am

penquis

of course I have been putting that ending on a lot of words today... ;o)

11:19 am

hokie carla

well, I need to go for a bit. BBL

11:19 am

hurshy

because a french green bean word ha7 DOES count

11:19 am

penquis

bye...

11:20 am

Vicuna

coyote would count if it were in the puzzle

11:20 am

penquis

ha!...good point...

11:20 am

hurshy

yes but we'd been talking about "arroz"

11:21 am

Vicuna

Ah. That'll teach me to join the conversation! lol

11:22 am

hurshy

no biggie i just wanted you to feel caught up

11:22 am

BzznBea

i commented on the ha7 earlier

11:24 am

MollyL

I would disagree about as8 being "normal vocabulary". I don't see it used very much.

11:25 am

hurshy

i guess when i say normal what i mean is, one has heard of it and knows what it means and could use it in a sentence if one wanted to

11:25 am

hurshy

not necessarily frequency of use

11:26 am

hurshy

as opposed to the sort of people who make me shudder, where if you did happen to use the as8, would be like, "what is that, i've never heard that word"

11:27 am

BzznBea

But do people say that when you use "big" words? I would think they get it from context.

11:27 am

MollyL

I would imagine there are a lot of those people because, as I said, that word is not used very much.

11:28 am

MollyL

People barely spell out whole words anymore. Let alone use words like as8.

11:28 am

hurshy

some people aren't that great at context... and some sentences don't have that much context to go by

11:28 am

hurshy

whether they want to ask about the word, from a social perspective, is another question

11:29 am

penquis

sounds like there is an assumption that the only conversation would be through texting.... ;o)

11:29 am

hurshy

occasionally i will use a word that my mom doesn't know and she does ask me what it means

11:29 am

hurshy

however her capacity to remember new information is basically nil at this point in her life

11:30 am

hurshy

:(

11:30 am

Atalante

did I see VICUNA?

11:30 am

hurshy

you did!

11:30 am

Atalante

!!!!

11:31 am

Vicuna

Errmm... No? LOL But for you, Atalante, I emerge.

11:31 am

Atalante

VI!!!!! <3

11:31 am

Vicuna

'Sup? It's been an age! <3

11:32 am

hurshy

your kids must be grown up now

11:32 am

Vicuna

They're 23!!!

11:32 am

hurshy

sigh

11:32 am

Vicuna

It's crazy, for sure.

11:32 am

Atalante

nope, they are 8

11:33 am

hurshy

my nephew is in his first year of college

11:33 am

Vicuna

Time... what's with it, anyway?

11:33 am

Atalante

its really good to see you

11:34 am

Vicuna

Yeah, I hope you're well. Or as well as can be expected, at the very least.

11:34 am

Atalante

its dark and stormy in Scotland, work is horrible, Loki is whining because he's been trimmed and is cold, all's normal!

11:35 am

Vicuna

Heh. Loki must be pretty old, too, by now? SOrry work is horrible, though.

11:36 am

hurshy

why is it horrible?

11:36 am

Atalante

he was 12 last week!

11:36 am

hurshy

found the other 8! very normal! even Pete Hegseth knows it!

11:36 am

Vicuna

I think he's entitled to whine a bit.

11:36 am

Atalante

old, podgy, blind, nearly deaf, still runs at speed when chicken pieces are involved

11:38 am

Atalante

work? just because I'm still an idealist and want a career in marine biology to be about the oceans rather than performance metrics and performing for stakeholders and having to deal with over excitable americans whose only method of communication is through management speak

11:38 am

hurshy

:(

11:38 am

Vicuna

(Unclear whether Hegseth knows what the word actually means, though.)

11:38 am

Atalante

and I haven't found the as8 so my vocabulary ability is still in dispute

11:38 am

hurshy

so it's not just the backscatter (which i was going to suggest you could Photoshop)

11:38 am

Atalante

everyone likes the backscatter lol

11:39 am

hurshy

no that's just your word FINDING ability

11:39 am

hurshy

the question is whether you know it when you find it

11:39 am

Atalante

I'll tell you when I find it

11:39 am

Atalante

ah I found it

11:40 am

Vicuna

Ah yes, when talking about the job is more important than doing the job. So frustrating.

11:40 am

hurshy

well?

11:40 am

Atalante

I sat through over an hour today of consultants telling me about clever AI tools to help management targets. I nearly cried.

11:40 am

Atalante

I wouldn't say I use it on a daily basis, but I def know what it means

11:40 am

hurshy

ick

11:41 am

hurshy

ok so that's all i'm saying

11:41 am

Vicuna

Set the AI to talk to the excitable Americans. You can leave them to feed off each other while you go do marine biology.

11:41 am

hurshy

if you were reading a book and the author put "he said with a touch of as8" you would not be confused

11:41 am

Atalante

:D :D

11:42 am

Atalante

(to both Hurshy and Vi!)

11:43 am

hurshy

i keep thinking we can make -ier words, sigh

11:44 am

Atalante

mycote feels like it should be a word. definitely fungal.

11:44 am

hurshy

i wanted grico. no particular reason.

11:44 am

Vicuna

Or even myciote

11:45 am

Atalante

grico sounds like it should be a cooking oil

11:45 am

hokie carla

rehi

11:45 am

hokie carla

what'd I mis

11:45 am

hokie carla

miss?

11:46 am

Vicuna

Joyous reunion of long-lost Babble buddies

11:49 am

hokie carla

HOET finally

11:49 am

Vicuna

I feel like if you cross a pe4 with an ap7 you should get a pe8

11:50 am

hokie carla

seems valid

11:52 am

Vicuna

String players have to reha4 their bows. I'm annoyed that one doesn't take.

11:53 am

hokie carla

12:10 pm

hurshy

they said they will take my idea into account

12:11 pm

hurshy

but it's like, you know it's easy cause there are so many websites where they have designs and you can buy various products with that design on them

12:11 pm

4:25 pm

hurshy

have you seen the video where Peter Davidson's daughter asked her young son about his favorite doctors (this was just BEFORE she appeared on the show) and he said he liked David Tennant (who then later became his adoptive father), and that his next favorite was Tom Baker, and she asked who was his 3rd fave and he said he didn't have one and she said "well granddad will be glad to hear that..."

4:26 pm

Otis the Bear

Hello fellow word wa8/60! I was munching on a dried ap7/36 and some ha7/36 vert and thought, what I need is something cr 7/36, like an apple. After some er7/32 driving on a road with significant as8/55, my car was in serious need of re7/32. The ti4/4 workers within ea7/32 were using so much jargon and ar7/40 language, it was difficult to understand. After paying the bill, I picked up some takeout. Those at home were hoping for a he6/27 home cooked meal. At risk of sounding pa7/40, "Awk! That's gratitude for you!" :D

6:35 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

thanks, Otis, picked up some great words
