flosey

lol jilli, am thinking of all the heavy draperies, carvings, etc. and usually so much of it crammed together

1:11 am

jillibus

sounds Victorian too, flosey -- my mother complained about her father's taste for that

1:12 am

jillibus

He had an aviary too, and the kids had to clean it, so my mother never wanted any pets.

1:12 am

sorry, flosey -- went to do dishes -- no, I was never allowed pets of any kind -- didn't get the Danes until 1968

1:31 am

jillibus

now I see I missed a bunch of clues *scrolling back*

1:31 am

flosey

wow, I think pets are so good for children

1:31 am

jillibus

and hi all who just arrived

1:31 am

flosey

my grandson is not allowed to have a pet - has an aquarium

1:32 am

flosey

but you can't get close to fish

1:32 am

jillibus

well, we lived in apartments in dirty Shangai, moved around a lot

1:32 am

flosey

that makes it difficult

1:35 am

jillibus

my grandson's gf works in a pet shop and is about to quit -- he says the acquisition of pet fish is horrendous: "All saltwater fish are caught using a process in which they spray cyanide into coral reefs causing all the fish living in them to float out and shortening their overall lifespan by years, often killing a large number of non-pettable sea-life in the process not to mention the reef itself."

1:35 am

flosey

oh, how horrible

1:36 am

jillibus

and of course no reliable dog breeder wuld sell to a pet shop -- they get their "stock" from ghastly puppy mills

1:37 am

kronus

i always thought they bred the fish in tanks

1:37 am

flosey

yes, have heard of those horror stories

1:37 am

jillibus

or ignorant backyard breeders at best

1:37 am

flosey

we got our dog from a dysfunctional household

1:37 am

flosey

we got our dog from a dysfunctional household

hi lynxx

4:48 am

nancethefan

you may be right, sprite - everytime i learned something new, it was in a strange way, wasn't it?

4:49 am

nancethefan

hey hillary

4:49 am

hillary

hi nance

4:49 am

sprite

quite so, nance. Nervous system tends to protect itself against shocks, so I think it is just doing a very good job right now. Just take it easy, feelings will surface soon enough.

4:49 am

lynxxx

Nance, so many people I know have been cleared at that stage so don't get too worried about it

4:50 am

nancethefan

i will sprite

4:50 am

nancethefan

4:55 am

sprite

don't even go that way for a second, nance. You were certainly due a break. You didn't get it. So you deal with what you are dealt with... and no blame on you. *hugs*

4:56 am

5:03 am

nancethefan

what do you mean by your most recent phantom?

5:04 am

lynxxx

I'm hung up on trying to make *ism words - fruitlessly so far

How'd it go with the arbo doctor?

5:10 am

nancethefan

y'all make me laugh using words on the grid in your chatting

5:10 am

nancethefan

arbo?

5:11 am

Eva

hi nance. Just wanted to wish you good luck and let you know i've been through the whole biopsy thing, and though one can't help be scared (or at least I couldn't), the odds are much greater that it will be fluid or something totally benign.

5:11 am

sprite

it went very well, MonkeyG. He decided to make a final report (meaning I don't have to come back) for the WAO doctor, in which he has stated that I should get a full benefit, that going back to work would be very ha4ful for me and is totally not indicated. He was as helpful as he could possibly be.

5:11 am

nancethefan

thank you, sweetie - i go on 4/22

5:11 am

MonkeyGames

Dutch thing. The arbo recht is the rights surrounding workers, the arbo doctor works for companies overseeing the health of the workers, that sort of thing.

5:12 am

MonkeyGames

VERY good news, Sprite!

5:12 am

nancethefan

what's wrong sprite?

5:12 am

sprite

yes, it was amazing. He has been helpful before, but this time he was all on my side, not caring about the needs of the company at all.

5:12 am

Eva

Nance-is there any way yu can insist on their seeing you earlier? The waiting is so hard.

5:12 am

phandmd

coin s

5:12 am

5:13 am

lol phan, and hi to you too

5:14 am

nancethefan

my doctor told me he trusts this doctor very much & i could see someone else, but he prefers me to see the surgeon he recommnded

5:14 am

nancethefan

hey phand

5:14 am

phandmd

how is everyone this am?

5:15 am

nancethefan

suffering in good company, I am this morning

5:15 am

lynxxx

Hi Phand!

5:15 am

phandmd

I am not sure how much I will be getting off of couch today. Back is killing me and shoulders are bothering me too

5:15 am

Eva

it makes sense to see the best doctor, but sometimes if you call and let the secretary know how hard it is to wait, they manage to get you in sooner.

5:16 am

nancethefan

o, ok - i'll call his office today

5:16 am

nancethefan

what's the matter with your back & shoulders phand?

5:17 am

Eva

only if that feels right to you nance....I've just, over time, gotten much more directive about medical care, because they are so swamped that they can't think about your feelings....you have to be the one to remind them. And sometimes they are just too busy and then there's not choice, but for me it doesn

5:17 am

Eva

sorry-doesn't hurt to ask.

5:18 am

nancethefan

eva - i was just telling sprite that i don't know if i feel numb or what - i was talking to my husband & told him i didn't feel much of anything

5:18 am

lynxxx

am4.9 lovely word!

5:19 am

nancethefan

i will ask, hon - thanks for the advice

5:19 am

Eva

Nance, maybe you really are able to hold this with equanimity. If so, great! But if not, no shame....this is hard stuff for most of us.

5:19 am

sprite

pretty normal word in dutch, lyn!

5:19 am

bye for now, lyn

5:20 am

phandmd

Just overuse, Nan. My left shoulder has not been right for about 2 years now. I don't have complete range of motion. Did pt and it got mostly better but not completely, and then got a cortisone shot and it was amazing. was getting worse again, asked for another one this time it got worse instead of better. So started PT again.

5:21 am

sprite

Eva, right with you there. Down to 54 and I swear there are no more words in this darn grid

5:21 am

Eva

well that means you saw 70 invisible words!

5:22 am

sprite

lol

5:22 am

nancethefan

eva - i don't know what it is - i went through so many emotional ups and downs with my back & worse when i found i couldn't work any more - maybe that's why

5:22 am

Alleyn

Eva - 126 left. So you're doing well!

5:23 am

sprite

lyn, lyn, I found one!

5:23 am

nancethefan

good luck phand - pt is difficult but worth it if i makes you feel better - you will be in my prayers

5:25 am

Alleyn

Hint for the mi10 please

5:26 am

Eva

nance-learning how to deal with these bodily challenges is such a hard thing....but inescapable for most of us, and I am bound and determined to learn, slowly but surely, to be less frightened by it all. It sounds like maybe you are on your way. Or at least a temporary respite. Numbness isn't always a bad thing. Can be nature's way of protecting us. This o modern health/big pharma system of ours certainly doesn't help with the constant barrage of ads and warnings and tests to make you feel that there must be something fatally wrong with every part of us!

5:26 am

Alleyn

Alleyn, the mi10 is based on a negative prefix.

5:43 am

nancethefan

Haz1558

Well done!

5:45 am

Haz1558

And Alleyn, you mentioned earlier that you had all the k words. That should help you with mi10.

5:45 am

Haz1558

Off I go - back later. Bye!

5:45 am

Bye Haz!

5:46 am

5:58 am

LoriP

Congrats gran! hey Nono. :-)

5:59 am

Scrabbler

Callie is having increased left hind leg weakness--she leans over when she is sitting, but she is devouring her salad.

6:01 am

ardilla

sorry to hear about her leg, but it's good that she is eating

6:02 am

Scrabbler

If an animal eats then it wants to live. So if she stops eating, or has complete hindleg paralysis, then that is her time to go.

6:04 am

Scrabbler

And here she comes, hopping into this room to be with Mama.

6:04 am

ardilla

awww...

6:06 am

Scrabbler

I have found a lot of 6's and 3 7's--mostly with the gerund tail, but no 8's or larger--any clues?

6:06 am

NonoNanette

give Callie lots of cuddles from me Scrabs!

6:07 am

Atalante

hi again :) and hi Callie!

6:07 am

Scrabbler

I will, Nanette.

6:07 am

Scrabbler

Hi Atalante

6:07 am

Scrabbler

How is your sister, Ata?

6:07 am

NonoNanette

hi Ata

6:08 am

Atalante

grumpy lol. she has a big hole in her arm and lots of infection around it. joy

6:08 am

Scrabbler

Poor thing. She suffers so much.

6:10 am

Atalante

yep *sigh* they want to take her pic line out but its too dangerous to open her up again, so we're all hoping it manages to stay uninfected

6:12 am

MonkeyGames

Hi again! Walter's in bed and my usual I'm-on-a-diet-but-it-doesn't-have-to
-COMPLETELY-suck lunch soup is coming up to a simmer, so I can waste some more time here for a few minutes.

6:12 am

MonkeyGames

Sorry to hear about your sister, Ata. I hope it all comes good soon.

6:12 am

NonoNanette

hello Monkey

6:13 am

Atalante

unfortunately good for her means too-much-of-a-downward-spiral on any day

6:13 am

Scrabbler

Soup, yummy.

6:13 am

Scrabbler

And hello MG

6:13 am

nancethefan

hey atalante

6:13 am

MonkeyGames

What is wrong?

6:14 am

MonkeyGames

Yeah, this soup is pork tenderloin and broccoli and eggs with sugarsnap peas and forest oyster mushrooms, all sauteed and then simmered with chinkiang vinegar, dark soy sauce, and chili/ garlic paste. And stuff.

6:15 am

Atalante

you name it ... crohn's, diabetes, blood disorders, chronic ostemyelitis of the jaw, her jaws are basically crumbling, a mastectomy wound that's been open and unhealed for over 3 years now, further sinuses appearing at regular intervals, now a big hole in her arm where the skin won't take stitches. among others.

6:15 am

NonoNanette

sounds like its loaded with flavor!

6:16 am

MonkeyGames

Oh dear! Poor woman! I wish there was anything I could do to help.

6:17 am

nancethefan

who are you talking about atalante?

6:17 am

Atalante

my sster

6:18 am

6:18 am

nancethefan

i'm so sorry

6:18 am

Atalante

she cant absorb zinc and most other vits and minerals, has cellulitis or menegitis every few months ... the list is endless!

6:18 am

carleekat

good morning all... wow..all that...I have nothig to complain about in my life

6:19 am

nancethefan

hey carlee

6:19 am

nancethefan

i sure don't have nything to complian about eith atalante

6:19 am

Atalante

how are you today, carlee??

6:19 am

MonkeyGames

Are you holding up OK, Ata?

6:19 am

lori ann

Good morning friends....So sorry to hear of your sisters ill health Atalante.

6:19 am

carleekat

great compared to ur sis

6:20 am

Atalante

i'm unfortunately all too used to it, monkey

6:20 am

Atalante

yeah, suddenly makes you feel better about ones life, doesnt it!

6:21 am

carleekat

i'm not sure "better" is the term... but... i know things can get much worse then they are

6:22 am

Atalante

yes ... relatively better I mean. I can't express things properly today. you know what I mean!

6:22 am

nancethefan

hey lori ann

6:22 am

carleekat

that was not directed at you ata... its directed at me

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Hi LA and CArlee

6:23 am

Atalante

I didn't phrase it properly anyway! :)

6:23 am

carleekat

hi ya scrabs... I've been meaning to ask about bunny callie... but on one hand am afraid to ask...

6:24 am

Scrabbler

She is doing OK--some left hind leg weakness, but still active and eating and happy.

6:24 am

Atalante

oh scrabs, you'll like this latest conundrum about sister. She had a drip a few weeks ago of mainly zinc and a few other bits and bobs. Overnight drip. And after the drip her zinc levels were exactly the same as before. nearly absolutely zero.

6:24 am

Atalante

bunny callie's eating her salad!

6:24 am

Scrabbler

I don't get it, Ata, but I am sure her docs don't either.

6:24 am

lori ann

Good morning Scrabbs...How do you feel about giving babies albuterol??? The doctor just put my grandaughter on the oral form for some gunk in her lungs.

6:25 am

hurshy

again, enable fails to keep up with the times - punked (or, punk'd)

6:25 am

Atalante

nope, they are totally baffled. I wish she's just do *something* normally!

6:25 am

carleekat

good to hear scrabs... I've wanted to ask..but had not heard anything and last thing I heard things were not good

6:25 am

Atalante

bet it wouldn't know steampunk either

6:26 am

Scrabbler

Oral is not used much at all anymore--the inhaled form is preferred--goes right to the bronchial tubes and has less systemic effects, e.g. jitteriness.

6:26 am

MonkeyGames

On a side note, I can only fins 2 so's, and I'm very confused: think I've tried everything. I have the one that rhymes with a word for ripped, and the one like an Indian dress with a different vowel. What gives?

6:26 am

carleekat

thanks hurshy I still had not even looked at the grid... i'm still e.planning fro guides

6:27 am

nancethefan

i woke up at 430am this morning - hubby was going in & out the door waking me up- a couple in our apartment complex were having a yelling match outside - i didn't hear it at first - hubby (by the way, his name is zane. i hate saying hubby - lol) zane asked the man if all was ok - two minutes later they were at it again. i guess they were getting physical & he came in and called the police - by the time they arrived, the couple was gone.

6:27 am

Scrabbler

Carlee, my Callie rallied and surprised me. For a few days I was thinking what day and time would be best (for me) to have her euthanized. I hate those decisions with pets. But I made her eat, gave her medicine and she is doing well for an old bunny.

6:27 am

lori ann

thanks scrabbs...Her cough is not getting much better. I am very concerned. Last evening she just started screaming and would not stop for about an hour!!! Scared the living daylights out of me!!!

6:27 am

Atalante

YAYYY for Callie

6:27 am

MonkeyGames

How old is she?

6:28 am

nancethefan

geeeeeeeessssssssshhhhhhhhhhh, all that to tell you i woke up a 430am & i still can't believe it is only 727 am now - lol

6:28 am

Scrabbler

Oral albuterol can cause irritablity and agitation. In our office we would loan a nebulizer for aerosol treatments, or prescribe and inhaler with a spacer/holding chamber.

6:29 am

6:32 am

Scrabbler

Long-term use of steroids can cause problems, but short-term is OK, with minor side-effects, although it can make some kids go bonkers.

6:34 am

lori ann

I took her outside yesterday for some sunshine and fresh air. I am hoping this will help some. I know it does wonders for me.

saute garlic and veggies (squash, green peppers eg) in EVOO, add tomatoes, wait til they cook a bit, then smush. add oregano, basil, and a lil bit of sugar to take the edge off the acid.

7:08 am

11:42 am

caitlyn

That is so annoying nance do they do that often?

11:42 am

Uniquity

Oh Nance, that sucks. I live in a building where you can't hear anything, thank heavens

11:43 am

Awe ((Uni)) I did mean to say 'any better' but you k4 me

nancethefan

they moved in about 3 months ago & i learned from my neighbor who lives about them that is does happen quite often

11:43 am

lexleeanne

nance - I don't function on no sleep

11:43 am

caitlyn

lex its in4/4 I think you need

11:43 am

nancethefan

i thought i heard them a few times - zane called the police last night tho - they woke him up & he wasn't a happy camper

11:43 am

Uniquity

I would have been a good match for them then Nance! My coughing would have irritated them and cost them sleep. I suggest banging pots when they start

11:44 am

11:45 am

caitlyn

A few years ago when my daughter was young we had a loud drunk living next door who loved to shout at her man.we had to buy earplugs for our daughter to get sleep

11:45 am

Uniquity

That means the word you need is four letters long, worth a total of four points (ie - each letter is a one pointer) and the first two letters are IN

11:45 am

Haz1558

in4/4 means a word beginning with in, it has 4 letters and yields 4 points (value of tiles)

11:46 am

FMitch

Jake - po4 people with mohawks and safety pins. and you can make it a plural too

All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don't hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heart

No use in holding other hands
For I'd be holding only emptiness
No use in kissing other lips
For I'd be thinking just of your caress

All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don't hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heart

No other voice can say the words
My heart must hear to ever sing again
The words you used to whisper low
No other love can ever bring again.

All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don't hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heart

Uniquity

My non-educated deductions leave me somewhere between a bad head cold and a viral infection

2:55 pm

CadFan

Not political - but - becaue of the conversation Hilary & Ellen had - Kylie Minogue discussed some personal information that I think it was important for people to hear. (Women to hear that is)

2:55 pm

redturtlehead

Well, Une, those two are sort of the same, so you are probably right!!!

2:55 pm

Atalante

that she was misdiagnosed?

2:55 pm

redturtlehead

Golly, i missed so much in those three months!

2:55 pm

CadFan

Yes

2:56 pm

CadFan

3:00 pm

redturtlehead

Ooh, my last job I could babble at but i think my next job, being day shift, will probably not allow that.

Psycho_Puppy

3:52 pm

kristinc

hi mom...work done, baby asleep...time to start the grid! :)

3:52 pm

Atalante

there are starfucks in antarctica, I'm sure

3:52 pm

MLFAN17

mom the food isnt so good but i love the teas there

3:52 pm

Mom

oh good, glad you could make time for some babbling

3:52 pm

Atalante

yep, kristin! Astoria

3:52 pm

Uniquity

There are starbucks EVERYWHERE. I cought a hot chocolate once...5 bucks and gross. I was NOT impressed. Hate them.

3:53 pm

MLFAN17

big grid kristin

3:53 pm

Mom

oh Ata. lol

3:53 pm

LoriP

G'd evening kristin. Nice to see ya'.

3:53 pm

Uniquity

Ata, you should be a tea connoiseur (SP?) when you grow up :)

3:53 pm

kristinc

Astoria is a neat town...I lived for about 3 years in a very small town about an hour away, St. Helens...you shall have a grand time!

3:53 pm

MLFAN17

You should try their chai tea latte and the green tea frappucinos

3:53 pm

bleugirl2

Starbucks is ok. Chai lattes are good. A lot of it has to do with the location. Some are better than others.

3:53 pm

Atalante

if only!

3:53 pm

bleugirl2

black iced teas are good too

3:53 pm

Atalante

I do like Astoria, I've spent a few months there over the last few years

3:54 pm

LoriP

5 bucks for a hot chocolate? Are you insane?

3:54 pm

lil*monkey

the BEST chai tea latte can be had at Panera!

3:54 pm

Merk

ko 5 clue please

3:54 pm

MLFAN17

bleu i have had that white teas are the way to go now

3:54 pm

Atalante

I love the starbucks cold drinks, but hot drinks, blech

3:54 pm

Mom

I am a Lipton tea lover.

3:54 pm

Uniquity

I can buy a box of tea for the price I would pay for one cup there. As a university student, 5 dollar cups of hot water are beyond understanding. That's nearly an hour of minimum wage! :(

3:54 pm

kristinc

And there is quite the story actually between a coffee shop in Astoria, called Sambucks and Starbucks. Starbucks sued them and won...they had to change their name even though they'd been around forever and I believe the owner's name was even Sam. :)

3:54 pm

Mom

not big on flavored teas

3:54 pm

bleugirl2

hot chocolate here is only 2.14

3:54 pm

bleugirl2

you must live in a $$ city

I'm glad Ata :) It has really changed I'm sure, I haven't been there since 2004 though we will go down for a bit of vacation this summer.

3:55 pm

6:30 pm

fruittart

add blowing air

6:30 pm

littlebit

hurshy, you need to vent?

6:32 pm

hurshy

i just hate job hunting!!! i'm good, but how to let them know that in a letter? anybody can say they're good! and then, how long to wait before following up? is following up twice pushy? it just feels like walking on eggshells

6:32 pm

inge

thanks, got that one also. Next is mi 7/40 after the valuable fur animal

6:33 pm

fruittart

same beginning then 5th vowel then not the beginning but the ***

6:33 pm

littlebit

ooohhhh! that's no fun! i'm afraid i would be wondering the same things you are!!

6:34 pm

hurshy

i even looked up job hunting etiquette and it only seemed to cover the resume/cover letter and the interview and post-interview - nothing about the tormenting weeks in between where you WANT the interview and have no idea whether you might get one.

6:35 pm

littlebit

hhmmmm. maybe follow up just to see if they got the resume???

6:36 pm

inge

wow, got that one too. now I need mi 7/64 and mi 10/146. Are they related?

6:36 pm

fruittart

hursh -- don't envy you a bit. Definitely follow up and see if you can get a timeframe for their decision making.

6:36 pm

hurshy

well, i did that, after 1 week, only, the person was not there, and i (perhaps stupidly) left a voicemail. now it has been another week and a half, and so then it was like, am i allowed to follow up again, or is the voicemail my one allowed thing?

6:37 pm

hurshy

so... i just sent off an email to reiterate my interest (it's hard to try to call when the person IS there because i have my current job to be doing during the working day!)

6:38 pm

hurshy

and i guess she takes the same lunch break i do

6:38 pm

fruittart

inge -- yes, related. it sounds like political speak . . . for wrong info

6:38 pm

littlebit

that makes it hard.

6:39 pm

hurshy

it's also hard that i don't want to leave my job, and they don't want me to leave, but i have to because of my husband and Yale.

6:40 pm

littlebit

i don't envy you at all. wish i could be of more help.

6:41 pm

hurshy

ah well, i am sure i can get something at yale, i'd just rather work for a small company if i can.

6:41 pm

littlebit

well, good luck with it all.

6:42 pm

hurshy

thanks.

6:42 pm

WordsRock

great clue, fruittart. Thanks :)

6:42 pm

littlebit

yw, keep us updated?

6:42 pm

fruittart

yw

6:43 pm

hurshy

oh, i know what you can do to help! just tell me, "just think, hurshy, in a couple of months, this will be over"

6:43 pm

littlebit

just think, hurshy, in a couple of months this will be over!! :)

6:44 pm

fruittart

((((hurshy)))) soon it will be a different problem? ;-)

6:44 pm

hurshy

good point, littlebit, it helps to think of that

6:44 pm

hurshy

ahhhhhhhhh fruittart don't feed my pessimism, i fight so hard against it!

6:45 pm

littlebit

glad i could help

6:45 pm

fruittart

sorry, just kidding you! soon, this will all be over and everything will be going smoothly . . .

6:46 pm

hurshy

i know you're kidding, i should have put a smiley at the end of my post :)

6:46 pm

hurshy

whoopsie, i forgot to have dinner.

6:46 pm

JBV

good evening, everyone and hi, hurshy, just reading back about your state of uncertainty

6:47 pm

littlebit

hi JBV

6:47 pm

fruittart

not eating will definitely affect your outlook.

6:47 pm

littlebit

hurshy! how can you forget food?!?

6:48 pm

fruittart

The Husband forgets to eat sometimes. I wish I would.

6:48 pm

hurshy

um, it's easy, you walk in the house on the phone. your call waiting beeps so when you get off the phone you have to call your mom back. then you spend an hour agonizing over the wording of a follow-up email that you're not even sure it's ok to send, and then you come to vent about it in babbleland.

6:48 pm

JBV

If I can offer another perspective - from the point of view of one who has been interviewing candidates for a position, I think follow up phone calls or emails do not hurt at all

6:48 pm

redturtlehead

hi guys, I am back in a lame attempt to find the last oh 85....

6:49 pm

JBV

in fact when I hear back from someone I think it shows they are really interested in the job.

6:49 pm

littlebit

ah i see! :)

6:49 pm

littlebit

hi red

6:49 pm

inge

yea, I got firewroks. thanks to all

6:49 pm

hurshy

even if you haven't made contact with them, you don't mind? i mean, unless they call like, the next day and stuff

6:49 pm

JBV

and it sometimes brings your name back up to the top of the pile when they may have let it slip to the bottom....

6:49 pm

littlebit

so, hursh, have you had a busy evening?

6:50 pm

fruittart

Yes, JBV, I got my first good job b/c I called back and they said they were glad I did b/c they weren't sure I was really interested.

6:50 pm

littlebit

congrats inge!

6:50 pm

hurshy

lol littlebit

6:52 pm

redturtlehead

congrats inge!!!!!

6:52 pm

JBV

I don't mind, hursh, in fact I learn a lot about people just from the number of messages and what they say or write

6:53 pm

hurshy

i have another question for you then, JBV, you handy person who has interviewed people - when you are writing a cover letter or a follow up letter, how much do you say? i always hear "keep it brief" but then i think, if i don't say much, then they don't find out much about me.

6:54 pm

JBV

well, your resume should have most of the basic facts,so the cover letter should be a more personal touch about why you want to work for that particular organization, etc.

6:54 pm

JBV

a follow up letter is a little different because you have already had the interview, I guess. so it should just say thank you and I am looking forward to hearing from you, etc.

6:54 pm

hurshy

is it ok to explain anticipated questions - like tell them what kind of a timeframe you are working with, so they know if it meshes well with theirs?

6:55 pm

hurshy

no, i mean, i wrote a follow up email, even though they haven't contacted me at all yet.

6:55 pm

JBV

hmm, not sure of the details of your situation, but I'd say wait until the interview for that - face-to-face is always better

6:56 pm

hurshy

oh dear, then i've messed it up

6:56 pm

redturtlehead

Hursh, i hope they call soon, the whole things seems miserable.

6:56 pm

JBV

well if they haven't contact you at all, why not call, and at least speak to a secretary - a friendly secretary could be your best ally

6:57 pm

hurshy

it's just hard with these admin assistant positions - they are the sort of thing that tons of people apply for and it's the sort of thing that it can be really hard for the employer to tell if you'll be good beforehand, because anyone can say they are organized and efficient and stuff

6:58 pm

hurshy

i did call and i spoke to the receptionist but she said she did not know anything and asked if i wanted to leave a voicemail, which i did.

6:58 pm

redturtlehead

my dog is acting like a class A jerk today. I might have to give him a 4th walk....grrrrr.

6:58 pm

JBV

but that's true of every job, really, do you need your babble friends to remind you to THINK POSITIVE???

6:59 pm

hurshy

if i hadn't left a voicemail, i could have kept calling back until she was there and she wouldn't have had to know how pesky i was being.

6:59 pm

redturtlehead

How many applications have you put in hursh?? and you aren;t in the area, yet correct.

7:00 pm

redturtlehead

and Hursh, she probably would have known how pesky you are, there is caller ID and the secretaries would start to recognize it.

7:00 pm

JBV

but there could be a million reasons why people don't return voice mails -= I'm for being assertive and calling back and asking if she got your message, etc.

7:00 pm

hurshy

i've only put in two so far because of various factors, and, i'm not in the area yet.

7:00 pm

redturtlehead

Being in the area is really going to help...

7:01 pm

hurshy

but ... it's not going to work that way, i've got to get a job so that i can be in the area

7:02 pm

redturtlehead

Ah oh, difficult, but surely you could save a cushion? or I guess maybe not. Because of the way my jpb is I unfortunately have 3 months worth of bill paying money that i cant touch...

7:02 pm

hurshy

like i said, i can get something at yale, i think easily, i just need to go in and sit down with HR and they'll help me know which things i might be a good fit for and i'll apply - they are very supportive of grad student spouses... i'd just RATHER work someplace small and with free parking.

7:03 pm

redturtlehead

well, since you can get something, I would try to stress less baout it!!!

7:03 pm

hurshy

we're buying our first home, you see, and i need to have income for mortgage payments. i will move out of my apartment end of may, but if i haven't got a job there yet i'll stay at my mom's and keep working my current job for a little bit.

7:03 pm

JBV

i'm sure something will happen soon, hursh

7:03 pm

redturtlehead

It will surely work out....

7:04 pm

hurshy

i suppose it will, i just hate the part before it's worked out! and we are using words shamelessly now.

7:04 pm

redturtlehead

ooops.

7:04 pm

JBV

are we the only ones here ? I give you dispensation from the PB

7:04 pm

redturtlehead

We can go have cake in the PB, I want some cake. I have been sitting here hoping phone will ring, and i know it will not.

7:05 pm

hurshy

i think i drove people off with my venting.

7:05 pm

redturtlehead

very similar feeling to the job wait, except its personal, and the rules are wildly different.

fruittart

no, i'm just starting her with my k curriculum this fall.

7:38 pm

hurshy

isn't it amazing how where you are born can make such a huge difference. there was a girl with two faces born in india (not conjoined twins - one head, but two faces). now, in america, the parents would be loving the kid like crazy but terribly worried about her getting made fun of when she starts school. in india, the girl is being worshipped as the incarnation of some goddess.

chlortrimeton at night, benedryl in the morning and sometimes an allegra d in the afternoon, depending on the pollen count

7:48 pm

pam

see, we suffer alike, lbd,...

7:49 pm

pam

chlortrimeton isn't as effective for me as zyrtec and claritin...

7:49 pm

pam

but benadryl is the only thing that gets in between me and the emery board I want to use on my throat and in my ear...

7:50 pm

it's not completely subjective. nobody would ever refer to a danielle steele novel as Great, and who can dispute that Middlemarch IS?

you know, hursh, I have heard Danielle Steele called a great read--not great book or literature--which isn't the same thing, but it reminds me that even though Middlemarch is great, it is also sometimes dull... depending on my mood...

right, i didn't mean great reads, i meant great books. i don't find middlemarch dull, but, i do find some great books dull (eg moby dick), and that's ok too - there is room for taste in Great Books as there is in regular books

8:22 pm

Just1Mar

I'm really hating the dribs and drab ends of this grid

8:22 pm

pam

I agree, hursh

8:22 pm

watching the wire - last 2 episodes a friend taped for me - any of you fans?

8:23 pm
