'afternoon, folks! Walter's just now down for his nap after a successful visit from co-toddler Ryota, and I need a break, so you folks are stuck with me for a while.
6:19 am

How do you get them so smooth and perfect? And are they baked in a kiln?
6:19 am

Hi MG--I met a Dutchman the other day, but he doesn't know anyone named Sprite or MonkeyGames.
6:20 am
carleekat

nope... and u just work them... and once dry..u polish...
6:20 am
Inge2

what do you polish them with, Carlee?
6:21 am
carleekat

a nylon stocking
6:21 am
MonkeyGames

If he's from Amsterdam or Haarlem he might know me, I suppose... my name's really Katrina.
6:22 am
Inge2

wow, amazing, Carlee. I like.
6:22 am
carleekat

i couldn't polishmine... my outer layer was not thick enough..but is still cool looking for a first go
6:22 am
Scrabbler

I didn;t ask him which city he is from actually. he is a pediatrics resident at our children's hospital and I was trying to figure out his accent--sounded more Aussie or UK
6:22 am
MonkeyGames

There are more than 400 recognized Dutch accents and at least four dialects.
6:23 am
Scrabbler

Wow! I wonder how many US accents there are?
6:24 am
Scrabbler

Well, he was qu5 a nice young man and is taking very good care of our sick teen that has been hospitalized for 2 wks.
6:24 am
Inge2

whoa, Monkey! All in Holland? Or does that include Dutch-speaking ex-colonies too?
6:24 am
Scrabbler

I need 231 more words and yet I see none----arrggghh.
6:24 am
MonkeyGames

There are actually about 35 accents in Amsterdam alone. It's funny here that way.
6:25 am
Scrabbler

And it makes it so much harder for a foreigner such as you to learn the language!
6:25 am
MonkeyGames

I really like the doctors here, Scrabbler.
6:26 am
Scrabbler

He does not plan to return to Holland. he said, "It's a really small country."
6:26 am
MonkeyGames

Actually, excpt for dealing with the dialects it's not too rough... and it means that once ina while someone thinks I'm from 'way down south instead of out of the country.
6:26 am
MonkeyGames

It is a really small country, he's right about that.
6:27 am
Scrabbler

I need to shower and get ready for work---long day as I volunteer at the cancer hospital from 4:30-6 after work.

"You mean what I think HE should do?" "No, how it makes you FEEL." "Oh! You mean find something in my past that is like what he was talking about!" And so on. Sigh.

Perhaps the UK is another port of call... there has to be a solution somewhere on this globe.

8:12 am

I think that's it, lynxxx. The Burmese military do not want the world to see the human rights violatons going on, so they're not letting anyone in. Although, not letting in aid is a HUGE human rights violation, not to mention cruel and nonsensical.

I saw the phsychiatrist who 'dealt' with me back in the early 2000 -2003... he is very pleased with my progress.... from very p***ed off and wanting immediate results, to being accepting and strong.

Of the last two House episodes, the second last was my favourite ever and the last disappointed me altogether. Since the end of the writer's strike I have found every show to be extremely hit and miss. Sometimes they get it right, sometimes you know the writers rushed and didn't care about "quality".

George didn't accompany me, no. We thought it would be bad form if he raised more of a crowd than Charles and Camilla.

9:44 am
Vicuna

I'd rather have dinner with George than Charles. Especially as that would imply Haz rather than Camilla.
9:45 am
Haz1558

They didn't do a walkabout so no cheeks were kissed, nor did I have a chance to sweep a deep curtsey. A relief for me, who knows what shape I might have ended up?
9:45 am
nbjasmine

qu9 help? i feel it should be obvious, but it isn't today
9:45 am
phaeton

ouch! will never get that done
9:46 am
Haz1558

Nobody with cowbells either. No detectives speaking into their sleeves like the US president's guards.
9:46 am
Vicuna

But just imagine, Haz - if you had crumpled in a heap in the act of curtseying, courtesy would dictate that he'd have to pick you up.
9:46 am
FMitch

No walk about, no flag, no bunting? One beings to wonder!

qu9 sounds like Elmer Fudds attempts to describe the sort of dresses with hoops as sported by Scarlett O'Hara.

Haz1558

It's an unspoken, unwritten understanding. Just like the one George and I have.
9:55 am
Uniquity

That's a lot of 'un', Haz.
9:55 am
Vicuna

That one is unspoken by George, anyway. It's spoken of a fair bit by Haz.

Alas, duty calls. Farewell, fair friends.

George speaks fondly of me sometimes.

Perhaps not so much a container as a store. It's in the grid, s4/4
12:54 pm
Haz1558

For the last part, you could always reverse the first letters of the Christmas saint.
12:54 pm

2:15 pm
Haz1558

Hello liz. Husband is watching in the other room. He's happy so far...

2:19 pm
Haz1558

You may treasure squirrels. Not sure that Dr Nut would agree.

I'm afraid not. I was just a face in a crowd.
2:20 pm
Krysten

I meant that they're the only thing in mine
2:20 pm
Haz1558

Resist, liz. I promise you, it's a bit of a workload.
2:20 pm
KatieMcG

Liz, stay strong honestly it's horrible
2:21 pm
Karys

Can't believe he didn't see you !... Have you seen him before ?, and did he look as you thought he should ?
2:21 pm
Haz1558

This is how you know your friends in babble. When they tell you NOT to start.
2:21 pm
lizmac

Much footie noise and, dare I say, some swearie words. I take it that the ref is a little short sighted!!!
2:22 pm
Haz1558

The last time I saw Prince Charles was in 1977, part of a Silver jubilee ceremony in Edinburgh. He has aged a bit. I look just the same....
2:22 pm

'zactly. one must have one's priorities... babble is definitely one of mine. Might as well be. The deer ate one of my five asian pears in the last three days and something else ate over half my dahlias this winter. *wearing my -not a happy mama- tshirt*

5:10 pm
stidmama

no kristin, I am waiting to have our neighbor bring his bulldozer to level the space and then get the fence up. Not doing anything new with the flower beds this year, just monitoring what does well with neglect for future reference...
5:10 pm
xaben

Is there any other?
5:10 pm

I love having a big yard, but I do find it a bit overwhelming at times.
