2:05 am

great to hear, peach. Yeah, am ok. Meeting with school counsellor today, so a bit nervous, but keeping strong.

2:06 am

gapeach

We have you in our prayers. You will say only the right things.....just know it.

2:07 am

Hello everyone

hiya lyn :) xxx

2:12 am

Hi there, lynxxx.

2:12 am

lynxxx

((Sprite)). Hope the counsellor can get through that thick skull of Tims for you and find out what is going on in there.

2:13 am

lynxxx

hi Peach

2:13 am

sprite

from your mouth to God's ear, lyn. Thank you :)

2:16 am

joso

hi all

2:16 am

lynxxx

My boy gave us some grief at that age too but he bottled it up more - thankfully. So I can appreciate what you are feeling. The change from boy to man makes you feel your parenting skills must have been lacking. Come to think of it - most of my friends with boys have issues at this age...not so much with girls

2:16 am

lynxxx

hi Joso

2:17 am

sprite

hi joso :) *hug*

2:17 am

sprite

that is good to know, lyn. My girl has the raging hormones as well, but is indeed not such a problem... just lots of drama and touchiness. I can handle that easily ;)

2:18 am

joso

hey lynx, sprite, *hug* right back atch

2:19 am

joso

I remember raging hormones, it's like someone flipped a switch overnight.

2:20 am

sprite

makes one feel like living with a person suffering from multiple personality disorder, sometimes.

2:23 am

lynxxx

I think most of us can remember our teenage years and what we got up too - quite vividly - and I am sure we wouldn't want our children to know

2:24 am

joso

What I remember most is boobs. I was aware of them before, like I was aware of arms and toes. Suddenly they were everywhere, couldn't understand how I never noticed them properly before, and you're not supposed to look at em.

2:24 am

sprite

isn't that the truth. I was a very obedient child and teenager, and even I have done stuff I wouldn't want my children to know. Risks I have taken... o my.

2:24 am

lynxxx

lol joso

2:25 am

sprite

roflol... oh joso, I can imagine... like a laser beam through the world.

2:26 am

joso

it's like suddenly realizing gress is green and not understanding why you never noticed that before

2:26 am

joso

*grass

2:27 am

sprite

and never before realising how much grass there is in the world...

2:28 am

joso

absolutly, it's freeking everywhere

2:29 am

sprite

yeah that must be pretty baffling. And at that age, seeing boobs means a physical reaction right away. Must feel embarrassing.

2:31 am

joso

and stupid stuff you do to impress girls, all the while in the back of your head you know what you are doing is utterly daft, she thinks you are the git that you currently are, and you keep on dooing it.

2:32 am

sprite

oh, that I recognise. Girls do the same thing. Then run to their friends and commiserate about how stupid they did and how he is NEVER gonna look at them again now...

2:35 am

joso

yea, I remember the girl gangs, want to talk to one, but she travels in a pack of 20

2:35 am

sprite

exactly :) And giggling all the time. Must be daunting to boys.

2:37 am

joso

so glad all that has toned down, definately still have an interest, but not yanked arround by the hormones so much

2:38 am

sprite

I don't think many adults long back to their teenager years.

2:40 am

joso

not I, i think I would be happiest with a early 20's body, but would want to retain my experiance

2:40 am

sprite

same here

2:41 am

lynxxx

I'd like the 18 yo body (and energy) but the 40s head

2:41 am

sprite

amen to that, lyn

2:42 am

lynxxx

OK time for Stew's evening stroll ...BBS

2:42 am

joso

yea, 18 would be ok in many ways, but would want the world to treat me as older.

2:42 am

sprite

have a good stroll, lyn

2:43 am

joso

ta lynx, enjoy

2:44 am

sprite

yeah. To have the physical health and condition of early 20s, the energy of 18, the face and brain of 40 and the experience of 70. And being treated conform your wisdom. I could live with that.

2:46 am

joso

Oh that would be nice, to pick the age of different parts of yourself

2:46 am

sprite

:D

2:49 am

joso

energy of a 10 year old, the awe and wonder of a 5 year old, experiance of 100, body of 18, face of 30, a little early grey at the temples. should do me

2:49 am

sprite

sounds good

2:52 am

joso

so who can i snatch, drag down to my secret basement lab, and do a brain transplant on. someone young, fit, but preferably evil, but without a record yet. Heir to an enormous fortune would be good too.

2:53 am

sprite

but the evil should not be transferred to you

2:53 am

joso

one of dexter's serial killers

2:53 am

gapeach

You should be writing, joso.

2:54 am

joso

the young rich kid from this seasons series

2:56 am

joso

I'd be doing the world a favor, got to be careful though, self brain transplant is a somewhat tricky procedure. first step, get an igor

2:57 am

sprite

second step, don't get a rigor

2:58 am

joso

hey peach, good to see you, sorry got a bit self involved

3:00 am

joso

I'm heading back to the grid, if i don't catch you again tonight sprite, good luck at the councelor's

3:01 am

gapeach

Well, you had some good ideas. I do believe you should put your thoughts onto paper.

3:01 am

sprite

thanks joso *hug*. Have a grand day.

3:05 am

joso

perhaps a thiesis, "mad scientests for a better tommorow"

3:07 am

gapeach

It could make you wealthieir.

3:07 am

sprite

LOL

3:09 am

gapeach

I think I mispelled that...wealthier....Oh Hell, it's late.

3:09 am

sprite

works for me, don't worry ;)

3:16 am

joso

3:16 am

gapeach

Touche.

3:18 am

gapeach

My peeps, I have 66 more to find...but I must say, this is a much frendlier grid than the ones we've had lately....alas, I must head for my pillows. I bid you all good night.

4:33 am

4:33 am

dizgrannie

in this area we have a lot of unemployed/single parents...but they do not want to support their kids school

4:35 am

puglet

thats a shame. Things like that is all over the world.I dont understand their ways. Yet they want to reap the awards

4:35 am

dizgrannie

no Pugs, not allowed to 'over do it'...had a nasty fall last month and nearly displaced my kneecap.....alls getting better now, but the few parents we have will not let me do too much.

4:36 am

4:46 am

i think it was a higher level position too

4:54 pm

hurshy

but he couldn't get fired or something so it never materialized

4:54 pm

11:35 pm

torgone

Heyas MinMin and Jj ..

11:37 pm

torgone

Heh .. nbt ..

11:37 pm

Minveryork

Maybe my question will bring out lurkers. Does anybody know about Verizon cloud? I got a text message saying I have used 80% of space. How do I make more space so I do not have to pay for any more Verizon cloud storage?

11:38 pm

Jillyjill

New one for me minv....but I do live in the clouds

11:38 pm

Jillyjill

Da gin is doin da job!

11:39 pm

Minveryork

Think it is just a way 4 Verizon to try to make more money

11:41 pm

Jillyjill

IT usually is about $$

11:44 pm

torgone

Clean out your cloud .. put stuff you don't need to share into conventional storage ..

11:45 pm

Minveryork

How do I clean out a cloud? Didn't even know I had a cloud

11:49 pm

torgone

If you didn't actually put anything into a cloud account, then you don't have to pay anything .. It's a virtual storage device that you have to send stuff to ..

11:50 pm

torgone

Short answer: Ignore the text ..

11:51 pm

Minveryork

Then why did I get a message saying I have used up 80% of my cloud storage?I think I'll have to call Verizon tomorrow.

11:51 pm

Jillyjill

Well guys, the gin is taking me to bed...hagn all..happy flipping!!

11:51 pm

joso

do you ever synchronize or backup your verizon device min?

11:52 pm

Jillyjill

*poof*

11:52 pm

Minveryork

Goodnight Jillyjill. I hope my boring Verizon convo did not scare you away. I will see you later on the chat log maybe.

11:52 pm

joso

11:53 pm

torgone

Niters Jj

11:53 pm

Minveryork

I synchronize the FB account whenever I sign on to FB with my cell phone.Does that mean I'm using Verizon cloud then

11:54 pm

Minveryork

What wou;d happen of I do not sync my FaceBook account?

11:54 pm

joso

yes, that takes a copy of your data and puts it into verizons space, their cloud

11:55 pm

joso

no syc, no more space used

11:55 pm

joso

but no backup

11:57 pm

joso

on the other hand, facebook are real data hoarders, doubt they will ever lose all copies of your data

11:58 pm

Minveryork

Any guesses on the next puzzle size? My guess is 455 words.
