rururocks

I need to collapse into bed. thanks for the laughs all..

parting shot. night ru.

1:24 am

jillibus

Ah, memories -- I remember finding a copy of the karma sutra in my teenage son's bedside table...

1:24 am

rururocks

i've managed that.. but nowadays with my knees.. jeez

1:25 am

jillibus

btw, granny, my hips and knees are in fine shape -- even the ankle is ok now...

1:25 am

rururocks

you go girl..lol

1:26 am

jillibus

but <shame> I've never read the karma sutra

1:27 am

jillibus

waste of time now, but I must admit I'm curious. Haven't read those shades of grey either.

1:27 am

mab

i don't know what that shades of grey is really. it doesn't sound very sexy.

1:28 am

jillibus

Well, it seems to have hit the Spot with a lot of people

1:29 am

rururocks

yeah the G spot

1:29 am

mab

ha! so they say.

1:29 am

jillibus

mythical?

1:30 am

mab

the kama sutra is amazing. lots of flexibility needed.

1:30 am

mab

i think it is mythical, personally.

1:30 am

jillibus

sounds like too much trouble

1:31 am

rururocks

ROFL

1:31 am

mab

hope i'm not missing anything...

1:31 am

jillibus

so it's kama, not karma -- thks

1:32 am

2:48 am

grannyrose

ah, sweetie, small steps, darling. pick up one pile, sort it, then walk away for an hour or so.

2:48 am

gapeach

Do you have a CPA there? I find that I really need to use mine more than I used to.

2:48 am

gapeach

Good advice, rose.

2:49 am

rubyfoo

I have an Amer tax guy, a Fr tax attorney, etc., but I've let everything go so long that it is practically a criminal situation now

2:49 am

rubyfoo

I hope I can play babble from prison

2:50 am

rubyfoo

at least somebody else would cook!

2:51 am

gapeach

Well, that would be helpful...the cooking part.

rubyfoo

2:55 am

lynxxx

I don't even know how to drive a manual!

2:56 am

rubyfoo

husband has always insisted on them which was fine for me before (cheaper to run, cheaper to buy, etc) but it's too much work for me

2:56 am

rubyfoo

he has a little Audi which I've never driven. It was for longer trips which we no longer make

2:57 am

lynxxx

so that is being traded in?

2:57 am

rubyfoo

uh oh, he's back....

Scrabbler

Hello kids. No chat entry in almost 3 hours?

6:14 am

MollyL

Hi Scrabs. Early morning chat is pretty non-existent these days.

6:14 am

Scrabbler

I am stunned that NO ONE was here for so long.

6:15 am

MollyL

Lots of people here, just not talking. : )

6:16 am

Scrabbler

Yes, I guess so. I always count on someone being here if I am having insomnia or loneliness.

6:16 am

MollyL

Is it that kind of day, or are you just getting an early start?

6:16 am

xeiluj

I am here but no one was talking so i concentrated on the grid

6:17 am

gramma

I'm here. I hardly chat any more. It seems like I prefer to be a voyeurist(if that's a word).

6:17 am

Scrabbler

I get up at 6 on work days.

6:17 am

Scrabbler

Or lurker, gr

6:17 am

MollyL

I'm up at five on work days. *Yawn*

6:18 am

Scrabbler

If I got up earlier it would be to play all of my word games.

6:19 am

crosshair

good morning my babble friends:)

6:19 am

You have other word games? This one takes me all my time between shifts!! lol

6:19 am

Almost done, xe?

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Hi Crossy

6:19 am

MollyL

Me too xe, I barely have time for this word game.

6:20 am

xeiluj

Got 58 left

6:20 am

Scrabbler

I play Lexulous and Scrabble on FB, and QUote Puzzler

6:20 am

gramma

I'm curious. What other games do you like to play?

6:20 am

gramma

a little slow here.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

Quote Puzzler has 10 games everyday, some are very unforgiving and maddening.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

BRB, must grab breakfast

6:21 am

gramma

I play quote puzzler also

6:22 am

gramma

I'll get coffee while you cook.

6:23 am

6:24 am

rubyfoo

I cook as much as I can, but do you know the expression "sucks the life out of the room"? That describes my husbnad.

6:25 am

Scrabbler

TY, Crossy. That gave me tw7 and 8.

6:25 am

Scrabbler

Is he always negative, Ruby?

6:25 am

rubyfoo

90% of the time now

6:26 am

Scrabbler

Has he been screened for depression? In men depression typically manifests as anger.

6:26 am

dan2bit

woo hoo! two columns done! morning all

6:27 am

Great work, Dan!

howdy annie

6:27 am

rubyfoo

his doctor doesn't do that and he wouldn't get tested anyway. What's the point. He'll be 87 this month.

6:27 am

rubyfoo

6:27 am

Scrabbler

Hi Annie

6:27 am

Anniebrook

hi crossy :)

6:27 am

rubyfoo

I have an envelope ready for Bobby, just haven't had a chance to go to the PO

6:27 am

Anniebrook

Hi Scrabbs and ((ruby))

6:28 am

Scrabbler

But he could feel much better with some medication.

6:28 am

rubyfoo

I would have to put it in his food

6:28 am

Anniebrook

ruby, please don't rush yourself. Scrabbs is right, ruby

6:29 am

rubyfoo

happily, his daughter is coming next week and perhaps she can give me a hand with him -- like telling him to wear warm enough clothes, a hat, etc.

6:29 am

Anniebrook

ruby, A friend of mine had become very aggressive to the point of almost being violent. Her caretaker has to put meds in her food in the morning and the difference is amazing.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

I bet you would see a dramatic improvement in 3-4 wks if he took Celexa or Prozac, etc. Are there any geriatric psych docs?

6:29 am

MollyL

Well, anti-depressants might decrease his negativity.

6:29 am

rubyfoo

do you know what meds? B's doctor is a dope

6:30 am

rubyfoo

we are in a tiny village and he wouldn't go to another doc

6:30 am

rubyfoo

his doc*

6:30 am

Anniebrook

ruby, I don't know what she is taking.

6:30 am

rubyfoo

I put Max on Prozac and he did much better for his (short) life

6:31 am

Scrabbler

One of the SSRI antidepressants. Or ask, kje--she is a geriatrician. Sometimes different meds are used in the elderly. Would your doc rx a med for him upon your request?

6:32 am

rubyfoo

yes,my doc writes scrips for whatever I ask -- scary but convenient

6:32 am

rubyfoo

Max was actually taking Paroxetine, but I don't know if that is French

6:32 am

MollyL

The doctor must be a moron. With your description of his behavior, it seems a no brainer that he is depressed.

6:33 am

Scrabbler

That is Paxil in the US

6:33 am

rubyfoo

when his doc comes, he always acts much better and I'm the one who seems crazy

6:33 am

rubyfoo

is Paxil similar to Prozac?

6:33 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Ruby. Same class.

6:34 am

rubyfoo

and, yes, he is a moron, but a nice one and he makes house calls.....

6:34 am

Scrabbler

I so dislike wimpy docs that just fulfill a patient's requests

6:34 am

rubyfoo

ty scrabs, sorry to ask you for medical advice

6:34 am

MollyL

Yes Ruby, but the doctor should give consideration to the concerns of the caretaker.

6:34 am

Scrabbler

I am glad to be able to steer you in the right direction

6:35 am

rubyfoo

I really appreciate it as I am alone on the iceberg here

6:35 am

Scrabbler

And I must run. Must leave for work in 10 min.

6:35 am

Scrabbler

Anytime, Ruby

7:26 am

Anniebrook

Owl, I know where he went. There used to be bungalows in the part of Brighton near where I live. There were rented out during the summer. Most of them are demolished and condos are in place now. I liked the bungalows better. It gave the neightborhood a nice flavor. The area where I live now has the largest Russian speaking people in the country.

I probably need a burka but it's just a back garden pool so nobody but the grands can see LOL

10:17 am

that's what I think, too

10:17 am

Judi

Pffth. "Poor Kate" shouldn't have exposed "the girls" if she didn't want anyone to see them.

10:17 am

rubyfoo

if you are a public figure, you have to behave a little better than everybody else

10:17 am

Glantarell

They should have learnt rom the paparazzi who took pics of Diana topless

10:18 am

rubyfoo

and I don't see the point of that anyway

10:18 am

Glantarell

All that said and agreed, I don't think it is right for magazines to publish

10:18 am

rubyfoo

evidently she and her husband misbehaved a bit at the Olympics. I read comments like "Why don't they get a room?"

10:19 am

Glantarell

They need to realise they are su

10:19 am

Glantarell

sed to be setting a good example!

10:19 am

rubyfoo

yes and suing magazines is not setting a good one

10:19 am

Glantarell

Wonders why messages are coming in two halves with the middle missing

10:20 am

Judi

Criminey. They stalk celebrities with helicopters now. Never let your guard down unless you want a scandal.

10:20 am

rubyfoo

uh oh

10:20 am

rubyfoo

neither your guard not your top!

10:20 am

Glantarell

True Judi- but they need to take more care

10:20 am

rubyfoo

nor*

10:20 am

MollyL

I have no sympathy for celebrities who sunbathe topless. They have no privacy and they should know that. And that includes dumbo nude Harry in his hotel room. (Even though I took a beating here for saying that)

10:21 am

Boobear

Clue pr7/44

10:21 am

rubyfoo

I'm sorry I missed that, Molly, I absolutely agree with you.

10:21 am

I supposed they thought his Nazi uniform was a giggle, too.....

10:22 am

Glantarell

Somewhere in there there was a scruples LOL

10:22 am

MollyL

I was told in no uncertain terms that Harry has the right to do whatever he wants in the privacy of his hotel room.

10:22 am

Boobear

Ty molly

10:22 am

Judi

Apple should have really named it "The EYE-Phone". They're everwhere and people will snap a pic without a second thought.

10:22 am

rubyfoo

have you lost your scruples glanta?

10:23 am

rubyfoo

you "gotta" be kidding, molly

10:23 am

Glantarell

Harry does have the right to privacy in his room but he also needs to know the only way of ensuring that privacy is not to have company

10:23 am

MollyL

No, and the person was adamant too. I found it quite amusing.

10:23 am

Judi

Uh oh. I think I saw some scruples in the penalty box. I poured chocolate sauce on them and ate them.

10:23 am

rubyfoo

and where were his bodyguards, anyway? Don't they vet the hookers?

10:24 am

Boobear

Lol judi

10:24 am

Glantarell

He was with hookers?

10:24 am

rubyfoo

time to make dinner for husband and pups

10:24 am

Glantarell

Even sillier to think he could keep that quiet

10:25 am

MollyL

Ruby, apparently the bodyguards were a part of the naked party. Not the best bodyguards, if you ask me.

10:25 am

rubyfoo

I don't know if they were professionals but still....

10:25 am

rubyfoo

I just fell off my chair, laughing

10:25 am

Judi

Which begs the question, if everyone was naked, where was the camera hidden?

10:25 am

rubyfoo

depends on your point of view

10:25 am

Glantarell

Perhaps they were soldier friends rather than paid guards

10:26 am

Glantarell

I need some 8s

10:26 am

uusue2

ok, must go, see you all later!

10:26 am

rubyfoo

these are my first (and probably only) laughs of the day

Apparently the Royals don't take "security" very seriously.

redturtlehead

kje, should I be taking it every day? Yilkes. an immunosuppresant? I just got labs back my CRP was hugely high.

8:12 pm

kje

the crp has nothing to do ewith your singulair... and why are you checking crp anyway

8:12 pm

redturtlehead

He has an agreement with a lab in Va, it does advanced cholesterol analysis. I have had Cholesterol issues, so I thinkhe gets it for that.

8:15 pm

redturtlehead

Apparently I am also a super rapid metaboliser of Plavix...but I do not need plavix or cholesterol medicine. Apparently running is good for me.

jesdraggon

hi stid

10:01 pm

stidmama

down to 82, won't finish, but going to list and get as far as I can.

10:02 pm

stidmama

Hey jes! Had a kid in one of the classes today who is trying to decide whether to be a vet tech or go on after tech certification/A.A degree to vet school... The lure of quicker earning power as a vet tech is strong.

10:03 pm

stidmama

I thought of you and all the hassles of the things you need to think about, and let her know she has plenty of time to decide. :-)

10:03 pm

jesdraggon

No real advantage to getting into vet school by being a tech; just adds 2 years to total schooling

10:03 pm

jesdraggon

best to pick one and go for it

10:04 pm

stidmama

ah, good to know. I'll see her again soon, I suspect and check in with her again.

10:05 pm

10:21 pm

grannyrose

hey BR. how is your day, mate?

10:32 pm

o-o

Not bad, thank you. Hope your journey to wellness is expeditious.

10:33 pm

grannyrose

love the way you put it, buddy. glad your day not too bad. mine started ok, then a work colleahue gave me a call on the QT to let me know that my unit manager is going to make me work 10 hour shifts in 2 weeks time.

10:35 pm

o-o

Always something.

10:37 pm

jesdraggon

pr7/44 please?

10:37 pm

grannyrose

ah, well. they now have backed me into a corner....bad move.....'cos i's a-coming out fighting.

10:38 pm

mab

how can they possibly do that rose? they know you are not recuperating.

10:38 pm

grannyrose

jes, what you do to pottery before glazing. pr* fi4

10:38 pm

jesdraggon

thanks, granny

10:39 pm

grannyrose

i know mab. this AM have been on the phone to my union, my surgeon, and my lawyers.

10:39 pm

mab

well, sounds like you'll make them regret it.

10:40 pm

mab

good!

10:40 pm

grannyrose

apparently my last certificate from surgeon said...return to normal duties...but he did not specify hours. * eye-roll*

10:42 pm

mab

'normal' should be what you originally signed up for. i hate bullies.

10:44 pm

grannyrose

that's the problem, mab. my contract says 30 hours, but i thought they would be reasonable and allow me to gradually build my hours back up, i haven't asked them for any extra money, just down time.

10:46 pm

grannyrose

plus, i think the condition of my right knee, ie it's accelerated degeneration, can be linked to the left fractured ankle i had whilst working.

10:46 pm

mab

i always think about the person who makes the mean decision, and what kind of person he/she must be.

10:47 pm

grannyrose

mab, i am fairly certain my unit manager has someone behind her holding a cattle-prod

10:49 pm

mab

heartless. the knee and opposite ankle makes a lot of sense to me. that ankle must have been bearing a lot of extra stress.

10:50 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for tr7-32? Thannks

10:51 pm

grannyrose

tr7, type of ship, tr+ 3rd vowel + hook letter + printer's measure + wind direction

11:01 pm

11:05 pm

11:05 pm

grannyrose

11:09 pm

joym999

11:33 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

11:34 pm

mab

hi jmc

11:34 pm

mab

how was your day?

11:36 pm

gapeach

Back in a few.

11:36 pm

jmcnrick

not too bad. . .i drafted my second media blast . . . a very short one and went to watch baseball . . . always an upper even when we lose like we did tonight

11:36 pm

jmcnrick

whooo hooo peach

11:39 pm

jmcnrick

i am sleepy but want to stay up in case they call about my sister in austin who is having brain surgery tonight

11:39 pm

mab

oh my goodness.

11:40 pm

mab

it must be nerve wracking. what is the problem, if you don't mind telling?

11:41 pm

jmcnrick

they say it is almost routine. . .she fell last week and apparently there has been bleeding in her head and they need to let the blood drain out. . . she has been acting strangely . . . not reading or watching football so her girlfriend finally nagged her into going to the doctor

11:42 pm

jmcnrick

that was a backwards version of the story. . .

11:42 pm

jmcnrick

the surgery was to begin at 9 central so i figure if i haven't heard anything by flip she is okay

11:43 pm

jmcnrick

who knows what to do when someone is 2000 miles away and under someone elses care

11:43 pm

mab

well. I do hope things went well. amazing that she could function at all.

11:44 pm

jmcnrick

well she wasn't very well and that is what the problem was. . .it was good her partner finally insisted that she get checked out

11:44 pm

mab

my hypochondria, i'm ashamed to admit, is kicking in.

11:45 pm

jmcnrick

don't worry mab. . . this was not mistakable. . . .she had a complete personality change with this incident

11:46 pm

mab

oh, well, then I'm fine.

11:46 pm

jmcnrick

haha you haven't changed that much dear!

11:46 pm

mab

honestly, when someone has anything I begin to wonder if I have it too.

11:46 pm

mab

ridiculous

11:46 pm

grannyrose

rrrrrrreally, mab? lol. so glad you are your usual self.

11:47 pm

jmcnrick

oh i think everyone does to some extent mab

11:47 pm

mab

bone chips on the elbow? I think i have that.

11:47 pm

grannyrose

and hello, jmc. hope all is well with your sister.

11:47 pm

jmcnrick

i think talk like a pirate day is over granny

11:47 pm

mab

tennis elbow? that too, even though I never play tennis.

11:47 pm

jmcnrick

thanks. . .there is every reason to think it will be

11:48 pm

jmcnrick

you can get tennis elbow from other repetitive motions than tennis

11:48 pm

grannyrose

medicine has come such a long way, when they can describe drilling holes in someone's skull as routine.

11:49 pm

mab

i don't have tennis elbow. my joints are shockingly well-functioning. I just am that suggestible.

11:49 pm

jmcnrick

it used to be routine a long time ago but they thought they were letting out the evil spirits

11:49 pm

grannyrose

yes, you can, mab, like lifting that glass of sherry everynight.

11:49 pm

jmcnrick

*looks around for some sherry*

11:50 pm

mab

i think aftercare when one has brain surgery is critical.

11:50 pm

grannyrose

it's hiding in the PB, jmc

11:51 pm

mab

i've been wanting a rum and coke lately. I almost never drink. it's been years.

11:51 pm

jmcnrick

well my hubby had brain surgery 3 times. . . the main thing is the brain swells the moment the skull releases pressure so they often have to wait for the swelling to go down

11:51 pm

mab

yes.

11:51 pm

grannyrose

ooohhh, rum and coke, but has to be dark rum, right?

11:51 pm

jmcnrick

pride! *runs to the pb to get sherry*

11:51 pm

mab

will the girlfriend be calling you?

11:52 pm

jmcnrick

i think she will call my oldest sister who will call or email me and my second sister (it is my third sister who is ill)

11:53 pm

mab

i guess dark rum... people drink all sorts of cocktails with all sorts of special liquors these days, many i know nothing about.

11:54 pm

mab

your poor husband, jmc...

11:54 pm

jmcnrick

ah well he lived well for as long as he lived. . .a great guy

11:56 pm

jmcnrick

i kinda wanted to get half way but that is not going to happen. . .105 left

11:57 pm

jmcnrick

a bit of a bugger this grid

11:57 pm

mab

it is a little.

11:57 pm

jmcnrick

oh well no matter

11:59 pm

jmcnrick

well i am off to bed. . .i guess i will hear in the morning. . . i am sure things are fine or they would have contacted me

11:59 pm

MLFAN17
