negativeneil

I was wearing a bear hat. But refresh?

12:23 am

rururocks

were you skinny dipping jilli ?

12:23 am

negativeneil

That photo isn't even in here anymore.

12:24 am

negativeneil

It's me the weekend before last, in Seattle.

12:24 am

jillibus

certainly not, ru. Beach full of similar old folks.

12:25 am

jillibus

Nothing skinny about me, boohoo.

12:25 am

negativeneil

Who wants to be skinny?
Slim maybe, but skinny, no.

12:26 am

jillibus

Unless you're a high fashion model

12:26 am

negativeneil

Well yeah.

12:27 am

rururocks

fashion models are too skinny

12:27 am

negativeneil

I really don't find that attractive though.

12:28 am

negativeneil

Exactly, ru.

12:28 am

jillibus

It's hard to see 6 ft high 90 lb skeletons wearing clothes that little short fat people are expected to like.

12:29 am

negativeneil

Hey. My truck is in this grid.

12:29 am

negativeneil

The type, not the make or model.

12:29 am

rururocks

a foku?

12:29 am

rururocks

isn't that the new Korean truck

12:29 am

negativeneil

Uhhh, no. :P It's also something you might do in a bar if you're single.

12:30 am

negativeneil

Or something you might score... y'know.

12:30 am

negativeneil

pi6,42

12:30 am

jillibus

well, I thought that was 2 words or at least hyphenated, but thx anyway

12:30 am

rururocks

m pi 6/42 days are over :D

12:31 am

rururocks

my

12:31 am

jillibus

seems to me you did one in SF last April ;)

12:32 am

negativeneil

Oh my god. I'm gonna give you an awesome clue for another big word, haha.

12:33 am

negativeneil

Ok for the tr7,28 word:
http://tinyurl.com/3dttplv

12:34 am

negativeneil

The act of mine is probably it. lol

12:34 am

uusue2

ah, thanks for the pi6 word, I was wondering how that corner p was going to get used

12:34 am

negativeneil

You're welcome Sue... and hi. :)

12:35 am

negativeneil

You will laugh if you get the last clue I just gave.

12:35 am

jillibus

I posted that link on FB, lol, but don't get the tr7/28 (yet)

12:35 am

uusue2

I got the word (assuming there is only one tr7/28) before looking at the picture

12:35 am

jillibus

hi sus

12:36 am

uusue2

hi neil and jill!

12:36 am

negativeneil

What link jilli?

12:37 am

jillibus

the link you just gave, neil
'

12:37 am

negativeneil

Oh ok, Sue. Well do you think the photo applies? Haha. I figure it's probably... that.

12:37 am

negativeneil

But hey. That was in 2007... Bush administration. Can you honestly blame me?

12:38 am

negativeneil

Or Jilli... Jill. Sorry.

12:38 am

uusue2

probably not, I suspect it falls under free speech

12:38 am

negativeneil

Ahh. So I wasn't as brave as I thought huh? lol

12:39 am

negativeneil

Except... at that time, I was an intern there. That's either brave or stupid! Haha. Day off, of course.

12:39 am

negativeneil

Grad student intern for 3 months.

12:39 am

uusue2

still free speech

12:39 am

uusue2

sounds like a fun 3 months

12:40 am

negativeneil

Uhhh, sometimes? Mostly, no.

12:40 am

1:34 am

puglet

bye anita

1:37 am

grannyrose

oh, dear, pugs...that means either you have big feet, or hubby has small feet....lol

1:37 am

puglet

we wear about the same size

1:38 am

grannyrose

amazing, pugs....if i tried to wear hubby's shoes, i would fall flat on my face every time.

1:38 am

puglet

I wear a 9 in women and he wears a 81/2 in mens

1:39 am

puglet

you got tiny feet then

1:39 am

grannyrose

i wear a men's 6, australian, ladies 10, australian

1:39 am

grannyrose

there is a compare chart somewhere on-line

1:39 am

puglet

my sister, she wears a 31/2 or 4--lol

1:40 am

joso

jeeez, di she have her feet bound

1:40 am

puglet

here in the US a mans size 9 is like a womens 8

1:41 am

puglet

nope, shes just tiny

1:41 am

puglet

Hi Joso

1:41 am

grannyrose

g'day joso, nice of you to pop in.

1:42 am

joso

hi pug, rose, nice to be here

1:42 am

grannyrose

checked the chart, it says australian ladies sizes are the same as american ladies, .....so, no, pugs....i have huge feet

1:44 am

grannyrose

and a different chart says an oz 10 equals an american 12...it's offical...i give up

1:44 am

puglet

I wouldnt say huge---my foot size has gotten bigger as Ive aged

1:45 am

grannyrose

i think our feet spread as we get older. we aren't so vain, and don't try to cram our feet into tight shoes.

1:46 am

puglet

Ive always have had feet trouble. For one reason I have no arches

1:47 am

joso

Can't say I have much interest in feet except to be glad rose has a couple of days off hers. Going back to the grid before this drifts into shoes, be back later

1:47 am

grannyrose

oohhh, did i tell you my supervisor at work is trying to talk me out of coming back post-op, as a nurse....she wants me to go into quality control...boring!!!!!

1:48 am

grannyrose

coward, joso....how do you feel about handbags, purses....

1:48 am

puglet

I would say! and less pay too, right?

1:48 am

puglet

lol--yeah and petticoats and lace

1:49 am

joso

is this a result of finding all those thing that need to be done rose

1:49 am

grannyrose

well, maybe not....if i can negotiate a contract for the right sort of money....lol...enter the ex DIL, medical lawyer..

1:49 am

grannyrose

probably, joso....

1:49 am

grannyrose

probably, joso....

1:50 am

grannyrose

acckkk!!! how did that happen?

1:51 am

puglet

what do you want?

1:51 am

joso

petticoats and lace is entirely different than shoes and handbag, will hang in for petticoats and lace

1:51 am

grannyrose

joso, nursing is me, and i am nursing....not sure how i would cope with a non-nursing position....they would have to make the remuneration VERY attractive.

1:52 am

puglet

would it be less stress and a better job as you are aging?

1:52 am

grannyrose

pugs, truthfully? once the knee is all fixed, they can pay me out. i am so ready for retirement. i have been nursing for 43 years

1:53 am

puglet

I dont blame you Rose

1:54 am

grannyrose

maybe, pugs. the government changed the age of retirement to 67. i don't think i can do that.

1:54 am

joso

You may be doing more good ensuring quality nursing is delivered. But I understand, used to work retail and was always promoted quickly, but always enjoyed helping people find what they want/need more than nursing paperwork at a desk

1:55 am

grannyrose

i think i m ight write our new prime minister a letter. i have contributed for 43 years to the economy, surely the government can support me for 20 or so years.

1:56 am

puglet

Rose, what did your BH retire from doing

1:58 am

joso

you are doing your too well rose, people living too long, gov can't afford retirement at 65 anymore, all your own fault, lol

1:58 am

joso

*job should be in there

1:58 am

grannyrose

he was forcibly retired. he was a communications officer for one of our major universities. that means he did everything, from names on doors, to high-speed photography of car-crash testing. he is an extremely intelligent man...not sure what he sees in me. he has 2 degrees, and a string of diplomas.

2:00 am

puglet

oh wow! superman and superwomen---perfect match as I see it! lol

2:01 am

joso

good to feel lucky to have your mate, but I have no doubt he feels lucky too.

2:03 am

grannyrose

awww, shucks, you two...stop it!! before we have to wide the doorway to let my enormous head through...LOLOL

2:04 am

puglet

do you have a mate, Joso

2:04 am

joso

no, separated, divorce soon

2:04 am

puglet

ahh thats too bad

2:06 am

joso

yea, something of a bummer

2:06 am

puglet

how long were you guys together

2:07 am

grannyrose

sorry to hear that, joso. never nice to hear of a relationship breakdown. any time you want to talk, i'm just 1/2 a world away. i promise you will get nothing but tea and sympathy. xoxox

2:07 am

joso

10 years

2:08 am

grannyrose

was going to ask questions, but maybe you don't want to talk right now. the offer stands...email me..

2:08 am

puglet

sorry about that Joso--yeah , same here if you ever need to dump

2:09 am

joso

If I start to talk I am sure i will sound very bitter, rather distract myself and move on.

2:10 am

puglet

but its not good to hold it in either

2:10 am

grannyrose

i was fortunate....when my first marriage broke down, i was devastated. the end of all my dreams for my life...but 11 years later, DH made his play...i have never been happier, except perhaps for the kidlings.

2:11 am

grannyrose

joso, you have the right to feel bitter....and sometimes talking to an abstract person can help. the need to vent is a basic need.

2:12 am

puglet

Iam very,very happy for you Rose

2:14 am

puglet

Rose and Sprite are great consoltents and they are FREE!! lol

2:19 am

joso

maybe it will rise up and bite me in the arse sometime, but am more comfortable keeping my own council for now. It's not that I don't trust you all, but that I feel like crap going over it all. I am sure this is why losing shadow was so hard, my last companion, in the flesh anyway. but great to have friends like you two

2:20 am

grannyrose

i respect that, joso. and of course losing shadow had a great impact...

2:21 am

puglet

thats fine Joso...but friends are here whenever you need us

2:21 am

flosey

hi everyone, exhausted but can't sleep, so I'll try to find a few more words

2:21 am

grannyrose

hello flosey, my dear. sorry you can't sleep

2:22 am

puglet

Hi Flosey sorry you cant sleep but glad for you company

2:22 am

flosey

ty ladies

2:22 am

joso

I think I'll work the grid for a while too, bbl

2:22 am

flosey

I might just pass out on the keyboard

2:23 am

puglet

okay Joso==later

2:23 am

grannyrose

*giggle* hands flosey a house brick, just a tap behind the left ear should do the trick, dear.

2:23 am

flosey

hahaha

2:23 am

puglet

send her a sip or two of your nightcap Rose

2:24 am

flosey

I'd like a cup of coffee but that could work in the opposite direction

2:25 am

puglet

you got something on your mind that you cant sleep, Flosey?

2:27 am

flosey

no, it's just a busy time - hubby is very busy, our Fall Fair is this weekend, he's one of the directors, so is upat th fair grounds quite a bit (with the others, of course) putting up the tents, organizing the barns for animals, etc

2:28 am

flosey

I am not involved anymore, they have to start so early in the morning , I worked on the information tent for a few years and loved it

2:28 am

puglet

sounds like a lot of work. Are you in on it too?

2:28 am

grannyrose

flosey, how about fresh coffee, not instant...or perhaps a hot chocolate?

2:29 am

flosey

that did it, our coffee machine makes 1 cup at a time, grinds the beans and pushes very hot water through the little pucks

2:29 am

flosey

brb

2:29 am

flosey

the nurse suggested it, must be a wise move

2:29 am

puglet

hot chocolate sounds delightful with marshmellows and whip cream---mmm

2:31 am

flosey

ahhhhhhhhhh, just right

2:32 am

puglet

Iam finding this grid a bit hard or its just not my day for the brain to work too well

2:33 am

flosey

me too pugs

2:34 am

flosey

but mainly, is my brain that's half asleep

2:35 am

puglet

do you have 4-H in canada, Flosey? And are they part of your fair?

2:36 am

flosey

yes we do have 4H and they have been a part of the fair but not sure they have been lately

2:36 am

flosey

hubby looks after the children's tent - they bring in stuff they've grown and their paintings, etc to be judged - they really get into growing stuff

2:37 am

puglet

dont they show their animals or is that at another fair

2:37 am

puglet

I always liked 4H

2:39 am

flosey

he also has a children's wading pool, filled with straw and tosses pennies (that he has soaked to regain their original shine, the kids rummage through thehay and get so excited when they find one, or more - he also bought the larger chocolate coins that are wrapped in gold foil - they're a big hit

2:40 am

grannyrose

sounds lovely, flosey....what a man, he is!! your hubby!!

2:41 am

puglet

it sounds like alot of fun!

2:42 am

flosey

yup rose, he's a great guy - we've been married for 52 years and going strong

2:42 am

puglet

but I know it takes alot of work putting something like that on. We use to put on horseshows -so I know

2:43 am

puglet

that is so nice,Flosey

2:43 am

grannyrose

no hope of himself and i catching up to you guys.....we would have to be over 100...lol

2:43 am

flosey

my bridge partner is quite a horsewoman, she rides every day, putting a horse show is lots of work

2:44 am

grannyrose

not plaqnning on living that long. *giggle* just want to live long enough to be a nuisance to my kids.

2:45 am

puglet

Rose, you never know--you might live to be the oldest woman alive!

2:45 am

flosey

lol rose, it isn't the length of the marriage, it's what we put into it

2:46 am

puglet

flosey, were you guys highschool sweethearts

2:49 am

flosey

no, he was educated in BC, I lived in Ontario, he took first year U, then went to Toronto Radio College, ended up teaching and working in the office, he had to put himself through U, so necessary to take a fw years out, ended up working with the brother of sister I worked with - short story is, that's how we met and were immediately attracted to each other

2:51 am

puglet

It amazes me how God puts the right people in our path through out our lives.

2:52 am

flosey

I agree pugs, it's amazing

2:52 am

grannyrose

aww, lovely flosey. DH and i have known each other for over 30 years, through our church. when his marriage broke down, he was so alone, but i was still one-eyed about first hubby.

2:54 am

grannyrose

then when ex and i separated and divorced, he used to ring me up during school holidays for ideas on what to do with the kids. we used to combine forces...and ended up having great times with all 6 children.

2:54 am

flosey

interesting rose, what a lovely way to get to know each other better

2:54 am

puglet

sounds like the Brady Bunch--lol

2:54 am

flosey

yes, lol

2:55 am

puglet

you had 3 boys Rose and he had 3 girls?

2:55 am

grannyrose

it wasn't until aout 12 years ago when i became critically ill, that he realised he was going to lose me, before we had any sort of a life together. that's when he realised he loved me.

2:56 am

grannyrose

i had three boys, he had one boy, and two girls, whom i unashamedly spoilt rotten. lol

2:56 am

flosey

ah, the thought of losing you must have been devastating to him

2:57 am

grannyrose

must of been, flosey. because he was very quick to propose after that...

2:57 am

flosey

we have 2 sons (still in Ontario) and 2 daughters in Vancouver

2:57 am

puglet

well thank God you didnt have to face all that alone!

2:58 am

grannyrose

flosey, you are a braver man than i am, gungadin. after 3 boys, i wasn't game to try a 4th time for a girl.

2:58 am

puglet

you have grandkids too Flosey

2:59 am

flosey

2 only pugs, one 15 in Toronto, one 4 in North Vancouver

3:00 am

flosey

Iwas with both girls when they went to hospital - meant a lot to me to be there

3:00 am

grannyrose

how lovely that you had that close affinity with your girls, flosey.

3:00 am

puglet

Do you get to see them very much

3:01 am

flosey

meant so much to me

3:02 am

flosey

both boys were out this summer, different times, one came with wife and son, and the girls came over while they were here - there's a pic in facebook of the gang (minus the oldest son who was out earlier)

3:03 am

flosey

btw, I get a lot of requests to be briends with names I don't know at all, I reject them, because there isn't any profile to see who they might be

3:04 am

flosey

'friends

3:04 am

flosey

wish they'd put where they found me

3:04 am

puglet

same with me

3:04 am

3:06 am

puglet

I had a little girl in my early years that died at the age of 4 months due to what they call crib death. Never got preg. again. Her name was Cammy Marie

3:07 am

flosey

ah pugs, that must have been devastating, so sorry to hear

3:07 am

flosey

3:08 am

puglet

3:12 am

flosey

3:12 am

puglet

3:12 am

grannyrose

she na5 them for something significant in her life. like claudia's middle na4 is ava...the brand of her wedding dress.

3:14 am

grannyrose

i guess i should be thankful she isn't passionate about men's shirts, like pelaco or van huesen, or shoes like grosby or clarks...

3:14 am

puglet

I like ava though

3:14 am

flosey

Clark is a nice name, but without the S

3:15 am

grannyrose

3:16 am

puglet

3:26 am

puglet

3:28 am

7:10 pm

TO - I know what you mean about the meatloaf. Add a few herbs and a dash of Worcestershire Sauce next time. x

7:11 pm

72 Temple Owl

i put in oatmeal, bran cereal cumbs,, ketchup , worchestrshire and lots of grated onion and juice. the onions seemed very cvery mild

7:11 pm

Jacula

7:13 pm

72 Temple Owl

ina garten has a recipe with ground turkey in which she adds beef broth for flavor.

7:14 pm

Jacula

ketchup's great for adding flavour to minced meat, or ground meat as you call it in US.

7:15 pm

72 Temple Owl

the meat itself was very wet, as if it had been frozen or near frozen, know what i mean?

7:15 pm

72 Temple Owl

i think that is also the problem. but it is edible.

7:15 pm

Jacula

I do, TO. You have to squeeze in your fist and wring it out a bit.

7:16 pm

11:00 pm

torgone

It's warmish and humid here. Not bad

11:00 pm

stidmama

11:00 pm

Jillyjill

Wait a minute....torgone is north of you???

11:01 pm

stidmama

sure. in chilly san diego, right? LOL

11:01 pm

stidmama

Or maybe I am in Baja...

11:01 pm

stidmama

or maybe I have the school-wide virus and just spent three hours asleep, waking when my congestion was too much to sleep through... *sigh*

11:02 pm

stidmama

BUT. I made it for a WHOLE WEEK! I love my students, my classroom, my colleagues, my school... :-) just wish I were more "on" the last couple days instead of teaching with a sore throat.

11:02 pm

torgone

I'm north of Seattle right now

11:02 pm

stidmama

I also took a tylenol, so hopefully this stupid fever (low grade) will subside soon and I can sleep.

11:03 pm

stidmama

If I weren't ill, I would drive up tomorrow tor and take you to one of my favorite restaurants.

11:04 pm

Jillyjill

Just popped in FB and saw your post torgone

11:04 pm

Jillyjill

*hands stiddy a hot cup of tea*

11:04 pm

torgone

It's ok stid. Where is it? I'd like to try it

11:05 pm

Jillyjill

Whatcha doing in Everett tor?

11:06 pm

torgone

Making magic cause I do that kind of thing ..

11:06 pm

stidmama

Well, do you like seafood? Emmett Watson's Oyster Bar has really good food -- not pretentious, just solidly tasty and at least it used to be affordable

11:06 pm

stidmama

It's near Pike Place Market

11:07 pm

torgone

Love seafood

11:07 pm

stidmama

he has an amazing chowder. He was a grumpy old curmudgeon with a wicked sense of humor -- much like you -- made a living as an editorial writer, died a long time ago, but the restaurant remains. Took Ciocia Judy there when she visited several years ago

11:08 pm

torgone

Will look it up. I'm actually free until Monday

11:08 pm

stidmama

Tom and I used to use one of his recipes for chowder. He says to use "...white wine. Any old wine will do, don't be precious." is how I think he put it. :-)

11:09 pm

torgone

I likes me a good chowdah

11:09 pm

stidmama

:-D so do we.

11:10 pm

stidmama

If you like sushi, the ordinary sushi at Uwajimaya is very tasty, and again affordable. Not like the anemic nonsense sold in places like Fred Meyer.

11:11 pm

torgone

I likes me some sushi too

11:11 pm

Jillyjill

Gotta remember those restuarants stiddy!!

11:11 pm

stidmama

Ivar's has decent chowder, too -- He was the funny guy who used to play his guitar and sing "acres of clams" for his commercials. But lots of people eat there, and I think Emmett's is quirkier.

11:11 pm

Jillyjill

is uwajimaya by pikes as well?

11:12 pm

stidmama

Uwajimaya is the Japanese-American supermarket in Chinatown.

11:12 pm

stidmama

There are other Uwajimayas now, but Seattle's is the original.

11:12 pm

Jillyjill

ahhh. ty stid

11:13 pm

stidmama

It used to be more like a department store, but now they seem to focus on the food, and there are lovely little apartments above it -- they built a new building a few years ago. It's nice.

11:14 pm

stidmama

*sitting in PB because I just found the AC word I used*

11:15 pm

torgone

Sitting in Mexican restaurant cause I do that kind of thing on a Friday on the road

11:15 pm

stidmama

There is a fantastic Indian restaurant that Riemann (used to babble, old college friend) took us to, but it's at the north end of seattle. Let me see if I can find it's name.

11:15 pm

Jillyjill

LOL...totally missed it stid..

11:16 pm

stidmama

Saffron grill, Tor -- saffrongrill.com

11:16 pm

Jillyjill

We used to eat at a great Thai restuarant in the Capitol hills aera

11:16 pm

stidmama

sorry about errant apostrophe. did I mention the fever? *sigh* Jac would be so disappointed in me

11:17 pm

torgone

111 left here - not likely to finish ..

11:17 pm

stidmama

We used to have a couple other restaurants, but one closed for sure and the other I can't remember the name. Has been more than a decade since we had enough money to eat out regularly.

11:17 pm

Jillyjill

I think it took me about an hour torgone....you are faster than me...

11:17 pm

torgone

Pobrecita stiddy :(

11:18 pm

stidmama

For Vegan food, I can recommend the Loving Hut (Vietnamese-random Asian fusion) which is across the freeway from the main Chinatown, and Bamboo which is very close to the Seattle Center.

11:18 pm

Jillyjill

I miss the days we both were working and would eat out every Friday...

11:19 pm

stidmama

There is a vegan AND gluten free place in Fremont called the Flying Apron. I haven't eaten there yet, but once Riemann brought me some tasty treats, and I used to have their cookbook. *drool*

11:19 pm

stidmama

I am working, but every penny I will get in a couple weeks is "spoke for" I think...

11:20 pm

Jillyjill

We had a end of summer BBQ potluck tonight with my surgery department coworkers...I am still full!!

11:20 pm

Jillyjill

11:20 pm

stidmama

sounds nice, jilly!

11:20 pm

Jillyjill

Not sure why that doubled....maybe because I'm doubly stuffed!

11:20 pm

stidmama

we have a foundation now, too -- I put a pic on my website wednesday. Too tired since then to do anything else.

11:21 pm

stidmama

Is that enough restaurant names for you, tor?

11:21 pm

Jillyjill

Great to hear that stid!!

11:21 pm

stidmama

I have friends up that way who would know the "night life" better than I do, if you wanted places that have music?

11:22 pm

torgone

I could use some good BBQ .. There's a BBQ place in Everett that's meh

11:23 pm

stidmama

hm. BBQ. Caveman in Auburn used to be really good, but last time it wasn't that great. The fellow who used to own it sold it to some new people who have a much cleaner kitchen, but the flavors were anemic and the cole slaw wasn't even close.

11:23 pm

Jillyjill

All the BBQ places here are meh and worse

11:24 pm

stidmama

I don't know it, but the name "Smokin' Pete's" Rings a bell, and it's a cool name...

11:24 pm

torgone

I shall have to back tomorrow and get all the names stid! Muchos thank yous! I may go looking for some live blues tomorrow

11:24 pm

stidmama

If you were closer, the Ranch House on Highway 8 going toward Elma is really really good (in our opinion).

11:25 pm

Tanja

hello all - stuck on the the second re8 ?

11:25 pm

stidmama

hey Tanja -- I don't have the first one, unfortunately

11:25 pm

stidmama

There should be good blues in Seattle, Tor -- I hope you find some!

11:27 pm

torgone

I'll alert my fans for sure ..

11:28 pm

stidmama

And the meds are working. I am tired and ready to sleep again. Good luck on the grid, Tanja and Tor (and lurkers) -- I'll be on again tomorrow evening. *poof*

11:28 pm

Jillyjill

11:34 pm

Jillyjill

Any last clues before I toddle off to bed?

11:34 pm

Jillyjill

Oops....WooT WooT WooT Tanja!!

11:35 pm

torgone

To expand on my flippant answer earlier: what I do is make machines work - sometimes big expensive complex machines. That's what I've done here, and why they want me to stay until Monday - to make sure everything is ok

11:36 pm

torgone

Thanx again and nitres Jj

11:36 pm

Jillyjill

Ah...and you were cute earlier....imagine it can be construed as magic when you fix them!!

11:37 pm

Jillyjill
