Hello granny

it is a bit like pulling teeth. some weird ones which i didn't remember ever using before.
2:16 am
Lizlin
I've just crawled to half way!
2:16 am
meliae
Been here a bit and still do not have NBT
2:17 am
Lizlin
Enable obviously hasn't tried Moroccan food - doesn't recognise tagine!
2:18 am
meliae
And yet it takes the legume plus a vowel, you can take for gas, and plural it as well :)
2:18 am
lexi
I'm struggling with the grid today too, but it's past my bedtime ;)
2:19 am
Lizlin
I think I'll still be struggling in 6 hours or so when it gets to my bedtime!
2:20 am
meliae
I will be happy to just find all the b words tonight :)
2:20 am
lexi
It's a tough one:)
2:21 am
Lizlin
It also takes da 4/7 - a term, which I always thought was insulting!
2:21 am
grannyrose
mel, have you converted the legume into the headwear?
2:21 am
meliae
Oooh no thank you Granny
2:22 am
Lizlin
I'd missed that plural - thanks, Mel.
2:23 am
Lizlin
But you can't extend the to 4 amphibian in the same way :(
2:28 am

did you sleep better, hun?
3:32 am

nuh... very bad night. Even my pain is in pain today. But tomorrow should bring improvement.
3:33 am
sprite
how about you? Did you sleep and are things settling down a little?
3:34 am
grannyrose
yup, slept 7 hours last night. awoke feeling much better.
3:34 am
sprite
wow am so glad, dear one. That took some time!
3:37 am
grannyrose
it all finally caught up with me....lol. plus i did turn the fan on, last night, just on low. it was so cooling when i had my 'burn-ups*
3:38 am
sprite
very good. Am so very glad things are starting to settle down for you. Way too m uch stress :)
3:38 am
grannyrose
as the weather warms up, the 'burn-ups' are becoming more intense. roll on intravenous magnesium!!
3:39 am
sprite
I know, right? Yay for a fan in the bedroom. I have one too. Wouldn't survive a summer without it anymore.
3:44 am
grannyrose
problem is, once the body temp drops i need the heater to be running to warm me up again quickly, other wise the shivering starts another round of 'burn-up'
3:44 am
sprite
awww that is so nasty! Complex situation.
3:45 am
grannyrose
snugging up to don warms me too quickly too, darn it!!
3:48 am
grannyrose
on QI, you pronounce van gogh it seems to be a gargle technique. like you are about to spit.
3:49 am
sprite
lolol yes, must seem that way for you. The dutch G is in the back of the throat. And Van Gogh has two of them. So that is hard to pronounce.
3:52 am
grannyrose
well what about the o and h? i'm okay with the van...
3:53 am
sprite
the o is short, as in sock. The H isn't pronounced at all. And in the Van, the A is a dutch a and not an english one. As in bar, more or less.
3:57 am
grannyrose
will brb, need a drink
3:57 am
sprite
ok darling, hurry back :D
3:59 am
grannyrose
and back....
4:01 am

so, hun, i hope you haven't made too many plans for today. just sitting/lying and chilling out as much as possible.
4:02 am
sprite
yes, I have been a good girl, no plans for today except a bit of laundry. It is pretty hellish just getting through the day.
4:03 am
grannyrose
poor sweetie. i wish i could help soothe those pains.
4:03 am

you already do, grin, by keeping me company now.

hehehe yes, gently. Can't have a headache on top of the other aches, right? Enough is enough.
4:12 am
sprite
which is a running gag here, btw. Enough is enough... pronounce that as if it is french and you get: un oeuf est un oeuf. Translated to dutch that simply becomes: een ei is een ei, or: an egg is an egg.

Do you need a program to play on tablet? I was looking for an app.
7:08 am
crosshair
No, no special program
7:09 am

What is wrong with your computer?

7:10 am

I have a wireless internet stick for this old computer since it does not have an internal wireless big card, I think it is acting up
7:11 am
crosshair
Nic card*
7:11 am
sukee
I hope it doesn't need replacing.
7:13 am
crosshair
No, I doubt it. Computers are all modular. It is just process of elimination as far as hardware goes but 90% of the issues can be traced back to software issues
7:13 am
crosshair
And human error
7:14 am
sukee
I am so glad my computer is already wireless and has blue tooth so I can print wirelessly :) But it's only 2 years old.

Lol mine is a classic 1998 vintage
7:15 am
pippingeek
i'm a youngster and I don't even understand how all that stuff works, so I just carry my laptop over to the desk and plug it in to the printer when i need to print anything
7:15 am
sukee
Wow, in computers that is ancient.
7:16 am
crosshair
It is. I gutted it last year and rebuilt it
7:16 am
pippingeek
you must have done a lot of upgrading, I can't imagine a machine from that era being able to keep up with current internet content
7:16 am
sukee
I just bought the new printer, it's so much fun :) I do have to plug it in when I want to scan something.
7:17 am
sukee
I have about 3 old computers piled in a corner in my living room :) None are that old.
7:18 am

hego

10:24 am
Dorens
hi hego. eating a very late breakfast here, but enjoying it immensely. then down to the lake for kayaking..
I can't believe school starts tomorrow
10:24 am
pippingeek
no, it would be sn****!
10:24 am
hego
Looks like you were having fun
10:25 am
Dorens
but there has to be some sort of past tense... I have sn**ted my sn**** tissue
10:25 am
Dorens
i try hego, i try
10:27 am
rururocks
if that's the case.. then the Hilton sisters would be besnotted
10:28 am
Dorens
i don't really even know who they are..... and why?
10:28 am
MollyL
Since he had no tissue, he snotted all over himself when he sneezed.
10:28 am
rururocks
Paris Hilton?
10:28 am
Dorens
tell me quick before i grab my paddle and run out of here
10:28 am
hego
Molly is conjugating!
10:29 am
MollyL
Oops, sorry. I try to only conjugate behind closed doors.
10:29 am
Dorens
yes, she is the one who is famous for ????? i'm not really sure. she has no talent or brains as far as I can see
10:29 am
hego
No one knows, Doren
10:29 am
rururocks
she doesn't doren.. and she's whacked too
10:29 am
Dorens
conjugating...cogitating... what's the difference?
10:29 am
pippingeek
phew, got all my 4 letter words out of my system
10:29 am
hego
It's like the Kardashians.
10:29 am
rururocks
she's good at sex tapes apparently though
10:30 am
Dorens
okay, but i don't know who her sister is and where does the sn** come in to play?
10:30 am
pippingeek
actually from the reviews i heard she wasn't very good at that either
10:30 am
hego
They have no raison d'etre.
10:30 am
rururocks
conjugating behind closed doors sounds very very catholic
10:30 am
rururocks
they are spoiled, full of coke, and bitchy and snotty
10:30 am
MollyL
Well, the Catholics only approve if you're not using birth control
10:31 am
rururocks
I try to hold two aspirin between my knees
10:31 am
Dorens

Hi all! I can't sleep so thought I would come here for flip.
11:53 pm
Minveryork
Hello uusue2! How are you doing and how is Frank doing?
11:55 pm
uusue2
I am good, min; Frank is doing pretty well. He has chemo again tomorrow, and they will start the Avastin then. I hope he does ok on it.
11:56 pm
Minveryork
What is the Avastin for? How are chemo treatments going
11:57 pm
uusue2
The Avastin prevents his body from making new blood vessels; it's supposed to help stop tumors from growing. They didn't give it to him for the first two treatments because he was still healing from surgery.
