Oh, yes it certainly is. I know that I certainly didn't have good models for parenting, and my idea of a "family relationship" is not a happy thing. Also, children are noisy and I've never liked them much.

12:48 am

3:13 am

FMitch

Don't feel bad Haz, I will start slowing down rapidly later

3:13 am

froelica

3:13 am

FMitch

Did anyone watch The Last Night of the Proms?

3:13 am

3:14 am

FranMag

3:14 am

Haz1558

I dipped in and out FMitch.

3:14 am

sprite

Oh froelica, with one letter before that, it is valid :)

3:14 am

froelica

3:14 am

FranMag

jutter should be a word...a large or hawky nose

3:15 am

froelica

ohhhh.... sneaky! thanks sprite, i hadn't seen that one

3:15 am

froelica

i agree fran, and continue to enter it over and over

3:15 am

sprite

With another vowel it is valid, Fan. And in Dutch, it IS a valid word :)

3:15 am

FMitch

The russian guy was quite something, hadn't come across him before. Whole programme was really enjoyable

3:16 am

MVA

it was a good night fmitch

3:16 am

Haz1558

I caught a bit of X factor earlier - kind of a contrast with Last Night of the Proms!

3:17 am

sprite

I am sure my sister owns a juel or two.

3:17 am

Atalante

no, I was sulking that I wasn't there for real. husband was offered tickets but he's away for the weekend ...

3:18 am

FranMag

nice vase atalante!

3:18 am

sprite

Aahhh, what a pity. *hugs Ata*

3:18 am

MVA

what a shame ata

3:18 am

FMitch

lol Haz, X Factor is so entertaining in it's early stages.

Awe there there Atalante, I did think of you last night.

3:19 am

Haz1558

It's hard to believe that there are so many delusional people around. And they're surrounded by their deluded friends and family...

3:19 am

MVA

2 left but need to eat! bbl

3:20 am

sprite

Okay, please let me in on the secret... what is Xfactor?

3:20 am

FranMag

later MVA!

3:20 am

Atalante

I ende dup watching a really really interesting programme on C4 about religious fundamentalism around the world. Yes, really, it *was* interesting!

3:20 am

FranMag

that's like American Idol right?

3:21 am

Atalante

yup, fran

3:21 am

Haz1558

sprite - it's kind of a long drawn-out talent show. In among the talent there are huge numbers of people who THINK they can sing but who are hopeless. There's a kind of fascination in seeing how people can trick themselves into thinking they have talent.

3:21 am

sprite

Aha, people who seriously believe they can be the next pop idol? And that notwithstanding the fact they can't sing?

3:22 am

Atalante

it even has Simon Cowell!

3:22 am

sprite

Right! Substitutional shame, actually :)

3:23 am

debbinla

hi everyone!

3:23 am

sprite

We have that in Holland as well, it is called Idols here. In one of the first, a guy auditioned with walkman, plugs in his ears, and "sung" along with the music he heard.

3:23 am

sprite

Hey debs :)

3:24 am

FranMag

hi debb!

3:25 am

debbinla

how's everyone -- 45 ! ! ?

3:25 am

Haz1558

It's music and unintentional comedy combined. And as I said, quite a contrast with the musicianship of the professionals in the classical world.

3:25 am

sprite

I never watch it, after that first time. It is somehow so degrading!

3:26 am

augurus

The thing about the Idol phenomenon is that it gives people a chance to escape their mundane lives and live the idealistic life of stardom. Furthermore, the Idol shows don't invite the viewers to experience the talent of the contestants, but rather invite the audience to watch the humiliation and essenceless spirit of other red necks or foul-mouthed clods like William Hung.

3:27 am

sprite

I never even liked slapstick. Guess this is just not for me.

3:29 am

Atalante

x-factor is one of those train wreck things - you can't bear to watch but you can't bear to look away

3:29 am

ExWren

I am relieved that we have a very small grid today, lots to do and no time to do it in. I hope it is as easy as it looks

3:29 am

FranMag

i'll see you all tomorrow! time to get everyone to bed! night!

3:29 am

Night Fran :)

Good night FranMag - and good morning ex-Wren. Your optimism is to be saluted.

3:30 am

FMitch

3:31 am

Morning JFB

3:32 am

3:33 am

JFB

Didn't mean that to be in instalments!

3:34 am

sprite

Hehe, you had me guessing for a bit :)

3:35 am

Atalante

phantoms: pyloric

3:35 am

sprite

I just tried pylora :)

3:35 am

FMitch

my phantom was joust

3:36 am

JFB

Brain's not in gear yet -hard shift at work last night and a snoring husband. Thankfully a day off today.

3:36 am

FMitch

3:38 am

Can someone please T4 me if both Ps are Py?"

3:38 am

JFB

3:40 am

3:40 am

hydra

3:42 am

Atalante

3:42 am

sprite

It is, k2laas

3:42 am

sprite

LOL... sorry Haz! I mixed up Ata and Aha, apparently :D

3:43 am

Haz1558

Not to worry! It was an Aha of triumph in finding it...

3:43 am

Tiny

anyone need clues if not I will leave for a while

3:43 am

sprite

Yeah, I should learn to read better, some day :)

3:43 am

sprite

I am down to 10 and pacing myself, Tiny. Thanks for offering :)

3:44 am

Tiny

Dont pace too much you will wear a hole in the floor LOL :)

3:45 am

Atalante

down to 11 .. but including 2 7s - eek!

3:45 am

sprite

Hihihi, I want those meagre 45 to last as long as possible :)

3:46 am

Atalante

I think gaydate should be a word

3:46 am

sprite

I am one 7 short still. Got F52, O36, O32 x 2. Can we compare?

3:46 am

k2laas

I tried gaydate as wel, it doesn't work

3:46 am

sprite

Tried that too

Atalante

3:50 am

sprite

It is true, Tiny :) My husband always says I am a defect jukebox. Doesn't work with nickles, but with words :)

3:51 am

Tiny

sorry the word and is in wrong place should be 2 x ou 7/32 and 1 ut 7/40

3:51 am

Atalante

am not ignoring you on email, by the way, sprite dear - devoted yesterday to Joscelin - sometimes it's essential ;)

3:52 am

Atalante

are all 3 O7s out words?

3:52 am

Tiny

Ok I am going to spend some time with hubby or he will get grumpy BYE ALL HAVE FUN

3:53 am

Tiny

yes atlante

3:53 am

sprite

Haven't felt ignored for a second, Ata, lol. We are in no hurry, you'll give it your attention when you feel like it. And Joscelin, hey... can't think of times he won't be essential ;)

3:53 am

sprite

Hehe Tiny, enjoy!

3:53 am

Atalante

I've been teaching myself more watercolour stuff while attempting to paint him!

3:54 am

sprite

All Ou7 words are Out, yes.

3:54 am

sprite

Oh, that is great! I can't wait to see what you did with that :)

3:54 am

Atalante

if I don't screw it up today, you might get to see it tomorrow :)

3:55 am

sprite

Yeah!

3:56 am

sprite

I want eyaic to be a word. Just for the looks of it.

3:57 am

k2laas

we dutch think the same, I tried eyaic as well

3:57 am

sprite

Hehe, that is good to know. Where in Holland are you, k2laas? I am in Zaanstad, near Amsterdam.

3:57 am

Atalante

what *should* eyaic mean do you think?

3:58 am

k2laas

I live in Zwolle.

3:59 am

k2laas

I think you would eyaic in some obscure sf novels

3:59 am

sprite

It should mean something like "still having a lot to learn" :) Like nestlings.

Ah, Zwolle is nice. Have been there a few times. Good shopping there!

3:59 am

Atalante

it would sound good as the name of a race in Star Wars

3:59 am

k2laas

It is a nice place to live as well

4:00 am

k2laas

Like I said, it is pure science fiction

4:00 am

sprite

That is one of the things I love about writing fantasy. You can make up names that fit the subject so perfectly :)

4:02 am

Atalante

oh yes :) making up names is half the fun

4:05 am

Haz1558

Time to go and get some food under way for lunch. Have a good day everyone.

4:06 am

Atalante

bye Haz!

4:06 am

sprite

I am stuck on the 2nd G :) I think I can make this grid last a little bit longer :)

4:06 am

sprite

Bye Haz :)

4:06 am

Atalante

I am stuck on that too ...

4:06 am

4:07 am

sprite

Just tried 'gichy' :)

4:07 am

Atalante

3/5 letters right ;)

4:10 am

sprite

I keep seeing gaudy.

4:10 am

k2laas

Sprite, do you know if there is a dutch version for babble. I would like my children to play this as well. My son is just learning english, so this is way out of his league

4:11 am

sprite

Same here, k2laas, alas. I wish there was, my kids would love it.

4:11 am

Atalante

there's always boggle ;)

4:11 am

M3

you can get softwear that changes the language of a page, but i dont think it would work for babble !!

4:11 am

k2laas

I play the board game, Boggle with them, it helps them a lot

4:12 am

Atalante

yay for boggle :) it kept me from boredom so many times during my childhood

4:12 am

sprite

It is possible to use the grid on paper, but that isn't as much fun.

4:13 am

k2laas

I will try him on this though. I will help his english as well

4:13 am

Atalante

the only way of doing it would be to ask someone with a solver programme to redo the programme using a dutch dictionary I would think

4:13 am

sprite

My son is proud as can be when he finds one or two english words for me :)

4:14 am

k2laas

The dutch language isn't as rich as the english. But it would be nice

4:15 am

sprite

I have seen grids with a couple of beautiful dutch words. Not valid, though ;)

4:15 am

k2laas

Most of the english they learn is from online games.

4:16 am

Atalante

there's often lovely french words too

4:16 am

4:23 am

4:26 am

MVA

4:26 am

Odin

TY

4:26 am

Atalante

I know I should have started with his face so when it went wrong, I wouldn't waste so much time ... but ... it just didn't happen that way. I'll live and learn!

8:32 am

jeanniejinx

They thought Matt had aspergers beebee..His doctor thinks it was the pressure of changing school that made it worse. He developed severe facial tics and got hysterical..He used to bang his head on the wall and we didn't know why

8:32 am

lianakate

you're welcome, Jeannie

8:33 am

8:39 am

jeanniejinx

8:40 am

sammy.arthurs

no !

8:41 am

beebee

jj- i will push harder- they say he's to old to be developing the signs now- they don't hear that there were always slight signs- the are becoming more pronounced as he gets older, which means it's more noticable to the other kids(7th grade) and they are starting to pick on him- he doesn't seem to care, but who knows

8:41 am

lianakate

okay. outta here..i just got too involved in the chat to leave..ha

8:41 am

speedfreak

beebee: I've worked in a program at our school for 10 years with children with Aspergers, Autism etc. we had a boy first thru six with aspergers, he is now in 8th doing great still with help from school, socially he will always be a little behind but can function get him diagnoses fight you school system for an ed plan get him a one on one aide that can work soley on social skills...

I feel lucky in our school system we have a very strong sped dept. that really works hard to integrate all students we call our program Alternative Learning Program and we keep them up with academics but work with other ways to help them let out their frustrations and control the flapping, yelling and anger..

8:45 am

FMitch

sammy when kids were using your ID it was not appropriate thats why.

8:45 am

jeanniejinx

sammy.arthurs this is for cluing, but its nice to get to know people too, especially as we are spread so far and wide..

Luwanda, I am not a teacher, but my mother is. I try to help her some, but there are some things she just has to do herself...

10:46 am

stidmama

Hi LeslieAnn! It wasn't too bad. I got down to 8 words, then listed. It was late and I was tired and I didn't want to wake up to more words...

10:46 am

stidmama

fffcccc``rea

10:47 am

LeslieAnn

understandable. what's the theme today?

10:47 am

LuwandaHL

it's a lot of work but i love it

10:49 am

Nef

Mamabear, it's an easy grid (easier than it looks, anyway)

10:50 am

LuwandaHL

we start in july, teach 9 wks, 3 wks off, 9wks, 2 wks off,9wks 3 wks off and 4-5 for summer

10:50 am

10:50 am

10:50 am

stidmama

It wasn't horrible, mamabear, a few unusual words, but nothing unbelievable.

10:50 am

Nef

the right side of the grid is pretty fast

10:51 am

LuwandaHL

i taech in a suburb of indpls. 3 of our schools are year round others ar traditional

10:51 am

stidmama

It sounds like a nice schedule -- breaks long enough for the kids to assimilate the learning of the previous session, but not so long that they would forget "everything" as sometimes happens with really long summers.

10:51 am

stidmama

go mamabear go!

10:52 am

LuwandaHL

we offer remediation during the 1st 2 wks for 1/2 day

10:53 am

Pierced

ut7 please

10:53 am

stidmama

We actually did something similar when we were homeschooling -- took regular breaks to do other things so the kids (and I) stayed interested in the more academic subjects. Now that they're in public school I can devote our in-home time during the summer to subjects they want to study rather than the core curriculum.

10:53 am

LuwandaHL

it's much more educationally sound than traditonal

10:53 am

stidmama

Our local school district offered three weeks of half-time remediation during August for those kids who wanted it.

10:54 am

LuwandaHL

our parents have the option of choosing

5:14 pm

tinks

have you got the list annie - do you know which you're missing?

5:14 pm

GreyWoulf

the hardest days for that are when it is a 270+ day -- but it keeps me sane and happy, which my wife definitely appreciates

5:14 pm

Dogluver

join the club, annie!

5:14 pm

tinks

or you could just say which letters are missing

5:15 pm

arleneehm

I don't know....there are days I think sanity is highly over-rated.

5:15 pm

Dogluver

did you do that 414 we had recently, grey?

5:15 pm

Dorens

did it!! (fireworks, no clues)....hope tomorrow won't be a gargantuan now

5:15 pm

kalea

lol.........i agree

5:15 pm

GreyWoulf

so do I arlene -- sometimes I have made it to only 4 to go on a tiny grid before I hit the list -- it does drive me crazy when I do though -- the short ones are supposed to be easier aren't they?

5:15 pm

JudyMio

Why is it so enjoyable to watch the fireworks?

5:15 pm

GreyWoulf

:-D

5:15 pm

9:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

hello, scout's mom!

9:42 pm

ScoutsMom

everyone doing all right?

9:43 pm

Jacula

Well done, jfarber. You'll have a helluva headache if you sleep with fireworks in your head. LOL.

9:43 pm

mab

how are you, ScoutsMom, how are things going?

9:43 pm

ScoutsMom

okay. had memorial celebration for mtnjock today. full house.

9:43 pm

dilly

FIREWORKS------at last with a little help from the grapes! MG - not as fast anymore, but just as persistent !!!!

9:44 pm

Jacula

Fine thanks, ScoutsMom. Finished the grid in about 20 mins during the UK day. Can't sleep at the moment... though it's 3.44am here. Nothing wrong, just had too much sleep over past couple of days.

9:45 pm

Jacula

Oh, ScoutsMom - I can imagine. I was so shocked to hear about MTNJock. He seemed such a nice chap and so full of life.

9:45 pm

mab

must have been sad and a good thing at the same time. dear mtn. and you must be exhausted.

9:45 pm

Jacula

Well done dilly!

9:46 pm

ScoutsMom

yes, tired. but pleased that so many came to celebrate him. he had his faults, as do we all, but was a gift to me and to many.

9:46 pm

dilly

ty - Jacula

9:46 pm

ScoutsMom

can't stop babbling, though, no matter how few I get. y'all are a comfort to me.

9:47 pm

mab

i'm glad you're here.

9:47 pm

Jacula

I've just been and poured myself a glass of wine, though 3.47am probably isn't a good time to do so. I'm raising it in memory of fellow Babbler, MTNJock.

9:48 pm

Jacula

Here's to you,MTN!

9:48 pm

ScoutsMom

Jacula, I thought I couldn't cry any more today. I was wrong.

9:49 pm

mab

here, here, jacs (raising glass of sprite)

9:49 pm

Jacula

Oh, I'm sorry ScoutsMom. Didn't mean to make you cry. 'Better out than in, though,' as my Other Half says.

9:50 pm

Jacula

mab - *clink* Cheers MTN!

9:50 pm

ScoutsMom

Don't be sorry; I just keep getting overcome by how many people he touched. One never knows how much a life can affect another.

9:51 pm

Jacula

That's true, ScoutsMom.((HUGS))

9:54 pm

Jacula

Same thing happened (and still does happen) to me after my Dad died. He was a gentle, mild-mannered (mostly) and helpful man. I was so touched at how many people really did seem to feel the space he left in the world when he left it.

9:55 pm

mab

i remember that the theme one day was fairies. Someone chided him for displaying his usual icon, and Mtn said, 'i gay. what more do you want?'

9:56 pm

svso

having trouble with the te's other than show and te**. Help anyone?

9:56 pm

ScoutsMom

I'm sure the spaces will stand out in stark relief as time goes on. Right now it just seems empty yet filled with regret and second thoughts. I keep thinking there are so many things I could have done but to be honest he didn't want anyone's help.

9:57 pm

ScoutsMom

svso, I wish I could help. to be honest. I have five words. five. lordy, I sure do suck at this these days.

9:57 pm

Jacula

But, do you know, when I call on him for help, even in a half-serious way.. if looking for inspiration or a particular tool for something, it's suddenly there. He obviously likes my 'new' life partner, though he never met him, being too far gone with Alzheimer's when P. came into my life... he helps him out by somehow leading him to the right 'tool' from his collection that I now have, all the time!

9:58 pm

svso

I have seven to go. Can i GIVE YOU A HINT OR TWO?

9:58 pm

jafro2

svso, build on the te** you have, a shortened version of the thing most people watch a day

9:58 pm

ScoutsMom

St Anthony, St Anthony, won't you please look around? Something is lost that must be found...

9:58 pm

scv

hello

9:58 pm

mab

I was worried about Mtn after the death of his friend. he naturally was mourning, but I worried when he left his job, and wondered if he was depressed.

9:59 pm

mab

I wish I had stayed in touch with him via email.

9:59 pm

Jacula

Don't even need to say that, ScoutsMom. Either me or Paul just say, 'Dad! HELP!' And he still does.

10:00 pm

ScoutsMom

Mab, he had many demons. Never wanted anyone to know.

10:00 pm

ScoutsMom

hello, scv.

10:00 pm

jafro2

svso, for another, you could ****er a horse to a post

10:01 pm

svso

10:02 pm

jafro2

can anyone help with the ou6 or second ou5? yw svso

10:02 pm

ScoutsMom

ty jafro2. now I have 9.

10:02 pm

Jacula

'te' clues: te4/4 'show and te**'. te5/14 - British word for gogglebox that gives you square eyes. te4/5 - like the enamel-covered things in your jaw minus a vowel. te6/24 - C7H5N5O8, used as a chemical indicator and as a detonator and bursting charge in small-calibre shells. Also known as 'nitramine'.

10:02 pm

jafro2

wow, those are real clues

10:02 pm

mab

so sad.

10:03 pm

Jacula

ou6 - a retailer might have one of these, so might a drain.

10:03 pm

ScoutsMom

yeeeaaahh. the 6/24 is more than I can decipher today. but...um...thanks, jac!

10:05 pm

72 Temple Owl

well past my bedtime kiddies....see you all tomorrow!

10:05 pm

ScoutsMom

svso, the idiot box. also the name of a sesame street character.

10:05 pm

Jacula

svso - a gogglebox is that square thing in the corner that you watch programmes on. No, NOT a computer!

10:05 pm

ScoutsMom

'night, temple.

10:06 pm

Jacula

'night, 'night, TO!

10:06 pm

10:07 pm

mab

10:08 pm

ScoutsMom

10:09 pm

Jacula

TO - Hadn't noticed you were, but we all feel like that at times. ((HUGS)) Sleep well!x

10:09 pm

mab

babblers are so brilliant. so many of us are mult-lingual.

10:09 pm

scv

i was gonna type fireworkzzz but i'm sure that sounds funnier in my head. so i went with the s's.

10:09 pm

scv

though, again.. more amusing to me than to anyone else :)

10:09 pm

ScoutsMom

thx jacula...fourteen!

10:09 pm

mab

take care temple.

10:10 pm

ScoutsMom

scv, let me tell you how long it's been since I got fireworks with or without an extra 's': never. Last time I finished a puzzle, it was back in the day when nothing happened.

10:11 pm

Jacula

mab - many Babblers are multi-lingual, which is what leads us to word games of any kind. Some people come in here to improve their word power (as Readers' Digest would say). Babblers have many and varied reasons to be Babbling.

10:11 pm

momof3

one left any clues for the et 5/16 please?

10:11 pm

scv

i've only just started recently.. i guess a month ago, maybe a little longer. 3rd time, and twice on short grids like this

10:12 pm

10:27 pm

Jacula

I met my Other Half on the Internet... NOT on a dating site, just a shared interests site. We chatted and seemed to get on. We said nothing and neither did those around us. We met... and yes, the electric moment when the eyes and lips met happened. We were more shocked by it than our fellow message boarders, when we finally got around to telling them we'd met and were 'an item'. LOL.

10:28 pm

mab

well, you'd have to be aware...

10:28 pm

chj

someone just wanted to give me an email address of someone in the neighborhood., thats all

Jacula

chj - that sounds like on of Anj's inventions. LOL. Haz was talking, just as I arrived on Friday or Saturday... all I read before it disappeared off the end of the chatlog was, 'You think we're bad in here? They were playing naked Twister the other day! Not that I looked, of course.' That's not cut & pasted, it's written from memory. What site was she talking about?? Iron Sudoku maybe?

10:34 pm

debbinla

Off to a night out on 23rd Sept with the 'old girls' from school. One of our lot has had a sudden career change and gone on the stage... small production in small side theatre off the main one... play doesn't sound a bundle of laughs but it will present a challenge to our old school mate, who invited us there... she's the main character for most of the play.

10:47 pm

ScoutsMom

darien, ct

10:49 pm

Jacula

She's been abducted in the desert (where she was driving whilst mulling over her recent divorce) and thrown into a windowless cell, where she spends the rest of the play going over how 'free' she has ever been in her life anyway. 'Doesn't sound like a bundle of laughs!' I said to the old schoolfriend who rang to invite me.

10:49 pm

chj

my sister lives in darien

10:50 pm

ScoutsMom

no, jac...doesn't sound uplifting. but does sound like my marriage.

10:50 pm

Jacula

Ping - yes, 3 ou7's.

10:50 pm

ScoutsMom

I've not been there yet, but did go on family vacation to Block Island in july.

Mine, too, ScoutsMom! But he's been the friend he once was before, since the marriage ended.

Ping

i have an ou 7 that ends with te 4 - could i have help with the other 2?

10:53 pm

runner

Krista

10:53 pm

Ping

yw runner

10:53 pm

Krista

AHH, ok, scoutsmom. Was wracking my brain trying to think of what Freud said on that matter. LOL!

10:54 pm

Jacula

ou7/32 - imagine a competition between story tellers or novelists - they would try to out*** each other.

10:54 pm

Krista

this grid was the pits..the small ones are always bad, IMHO

10:54 pm

Ping

jac, i think that's the one i have - do you know the other 2?

10:55 pm

Jacula

ou7/32 - imagine you are 10-years' old and hurling yourself down a grassy slope. You want to get there first! You want to out**** all the others!

10:55 pm

renfield

krista - are you back on the arm pits again???

10:56 pm

ScoutsMom

10:56 pm

hee hee - yes, there seems to be a pit theme going - sure Freud had something to say on that

10:56 pm

debbinla

gnite scoutsmom -

10:57 pm

Jacula

ou7/36 - this predates many others of its kind. One day, it may be a jaded thing and end up ou*****d.

10:58 pm

10:58 pm

Krista

10:59 pm

Jacula

Sleep as well as you can, ScoutsMom.x

10:59 pm

renfield

ohhh krista - i would really have loved them! arrgggghhh

10:59 pm

Jacula

10:59 pm

Krista

10:59 pm

renfield

hahahahaha krista!

10:59 pm

Krista

those used sweaters can be crusty

11:00 pm

renfield

ewwwwwww krista!

11:02 pm

Jacula

My Other Half is going to be downstairs soon. He's going to be p**d off that I never went to bed. Don't blame him! But I'm not tired... I watched a few TV progs and did my magazine ripping out an sorting thing at same time, then chatted to daughter and her b/f and helped with their crossword, then came in to check my e-mails, then played an offline word game or two, then came in here. If I could lie down and sleep, I would!

11:02 pm

Krista

sorry :)

11:03 pm

Ping

fireworks

11:03 pm

debbinla

CONGRATS PING!!!!!!!!!!

11:03 pm

Jacula

Well done, Ping!

11:03 pm

renfield

pyros (not a word in the grid) for ping!!!!!

11:04 pm

Ping

thanks for the clues!

11:05 pm

Krista

Funny, Jacula..I did the same magazine ripping/sorting thing tonight....if it weren't for hubby being a lark, I'd be up all night too..though I am sending him to have the SNORING issue addressed...

11:06 pm

Jacula

Today's phantom word - nymph.

11:07 pm

Krista

I have monkeyed the most ridiculous words tonight. Had myself laughing at some of them I tried.

11:08 pm

Jacula

Krista - my other ha;f is 'a lark', being a trucker. It's not his true nature though. So, at times, our worlds and body clocks collide and crash, sometimes.... well, we don't need to go into that! and at other times we are just like that silly fantasy couple on a beach somewhere, who run to mett each other and MISS! LOL.

11:09 pm

Jacula

Sometimes this is okay with both of us. Sometimes okay with one, But we work it out.

11:13 pm

Krista

I hear you! I see us sleeping in different rooms one day, though the idea makes me a bit sad. My Dad was a truck driver...poor guy was always trying to sleep and we made it miserable.

11:13 pm

Krista

miserable for him, i meant to type.

11:14 pm

Jacula

In my teens, I'd be in bed by 12.30 and yawning by 2am, if I had to be up and out then. When I got married (in '77) and had to be up by 6.30am for work, I was in bed for 10.20pm.

11:16 pm

Jacula

Krista- I know what you meant, and I think we nnight owls in this house sometimes do the same here, although unintentionally for my Other Half.Most times though, if he's been up for 4am and got home at 5/6/7/9am - he's too shattered to hear or care.

11:17 pm

Jacula

I miss going out on the road with him, as I once did.

11:17 pm

Krista

Yep, school was sooo hard for me because I could never get to sleep. My schedule is very off now because my 5 year old was up all night, and slept all day today (strep throat). But this is natural for me, so it will be hard to reverse it. Is he a long-distance driver?

11:18 pm

harpjane

hm, 45 words. Can I do it in 42 minutes? what do you all think?

11:18 pm

Krista

NOOOO run while you can!

11:18 pm

Jacula

Yes, l-d driver.

11:18 pm

harpjane

okiedokey, krista!

11:19 pm

Krista

I thought it was very hard today. :)

11:19 pm

Krista

Didn't mean to scare you.

11:19 pm

Jacula

Oh, he's just come downstairs. I can tell he is p*ssed off with me.:(

11:19 pm

Krista

you were right, Jac!

11:20 pm

Jacula

BBL, maybe....

11:20 pm

harpjane

well, I have dialup, which really slows things down. and I'm exhausted. So maybe I'll just change my icon for tomorrow, and go to bed. (I still have my clue from Friday.)

11:20 pm

Krista

I suppose it's nice they want us there with them.

11:21 pm

Krista

Yes, I didn't start the grid until 10:30 (eastern), and am not finished yet (trying to go on my own without clues). I wish I hadn't started it.

11:21 pm

Jacula

Finishing the grid is just something I seem to do, most times (but not all times).. Chatting after that is 'the crime', I guess...

11:22 pm

Jacula

I like to go without lists and clues, too, Krista.

11:23 pm

Krista

I chat during, then don't finish! Goodnight all, Have to get the sickie kid to bed.

11:24 pm

Jacula

When you get to nearly 50 and you know your Dad died of senile demntia, you like to keep challenging your brain, just to keep it going!

11:25 pm

Jacula

Goodnight, Krista. Sleep welll.

11:26 pm

Krista

And that really helps prevent it, from what I learned, so good for you! I am sorry about your dad.

11:26 pm

Jacula

Well, I guess I succeeded in emptying the chatlog again?

11:26 pm

Krista

I always do that, Jacula. It's not you.

11:26 pm

Jacula

Krista - s'okay.

11:26 pm

Krista

Nighty night!

11:37 pm

Jacula

So, is it clever to go or to stay in bed when you're hot-sweating, and your shoulder is hurting when you lie on it. to go and lie there and toss and turn and disturb the person you most love in the world when he has to be up at 4am to drie a big truck?

11:38 pm

majenwen

11:49 pm

hpyhrted

te + endeavor + l

11:49 pm

cybernan

te 6: beginning of latin four + adverb suffix with letters reversed

11:50 pm

cybernan

gh 5: sounds like the breathing apparatus on a fish

11:51 pm

Jacula

gh5 is a Scotish word for a wooded ravine or a mountain waterfall. However, that is analternate speelling which read like wht fish breathe through. Now use your intelligence to work that one out via a gh clue.

11:52 pm

Jacula
