we'd like to be a listening ear and a bit of support for you, Biltong, if you let us. It is a tough battle, we know that.
4:52 am
Biltong
Thank you rose and sprite. I can often relate to both your "problems" too.
4:53 am
sprite
shared misery is halved misery, as a dutch saying goes. It is good to know we are not alone in our struggles, isn't it?
4:53 am
grannyrose
good, then biltong. then you know sprite and i do not judge, but support, and advise if asked.and we aren't afraid to say anything...lol...
4:55 am
Biltong
It is indeed comforting, sprite and yes, rose, by now I know you aren't afraid of saying anything, lol
4:55 am
sprite
*grin* Too true.
4:56 am
grannyrose
i do try to be tactful.....lol....but sometimes a thing just has to be said.
4:56 am
sprite
do you get treatment for your condition, Biltong? Some professional help, and maybe medication?
4:57 am
sprite
well yeah, I try not to judge. Until they start messing with my friends. Then all bets are off.
4:58 am
Biltong
lol, rose. Yes sprite, I take anti depressants although I have gained a lot of weight from them which is obviously not a good thing
4:58 am
grannyrose
*giggle* and don't i know it...
4:59 am
sprite
ugh no, the side effects of meds can be so bad. Am sorry you have to go through that. Sometimes other meds may work better or with less side effects... any chance of discussing that with your doctor?
5:02 am

5:07 am
zoozzoom
Biltong I too am on velafaxine.I hate it.It makes my head or thuddy and hard to concentrate.Also on beta blockers for panic attacks too.I know how you feel.The last time i was anti-depresants I stopped completely with out reducing the dosage.Big mistake..lol

5:09 am
zoozzoom
Sounds good to me, Sprite :-)
5:09 am
Biltong
Hello zooz. Yes, the side effects of Venlafaxine are awful. YOu need to come off them gradually In my opinion they aren't very effective either
5:10 am
zoozzoom
No Not keen on tablets.I just wanted a professional to talk to but alas I am struggling so needed additional help..lol
5:11 am
Biltong
I suppose it is safe to say then that we are all insomniacs too?
5:11 am
Biltong
Love it, sprite :) It is really good for a laugh I enjoy play on words so much
5:12 am
sprite
I struggle with sleeping, mostly because of very bad dreams. But I do sleep, so am not really an insomniac.

Ooh, Sprite there was a made up word in the grid the other day someone mentioned it.And I thought I must tell you it. A babbler mentioned there should be a word for friends and family you love should be called framily Which I thought was rather good.

... Sue ... I hope Frank is feeling better ... may I suggest that he go back to the hospital or to a public health nurse and have the lessons on the bag operation again ... ... it's too easy to miss some little thing ... ... In my case .. it was the pain killer drops ... after three days of agony none of the doctors or nurses could figure out what could possibly be wrong ... ... the old pro came in on day four and noticed that nobody had turned the switch on ... ... it could be just some tiny step that he is missing and the tiny thing is causing a whole mess of grief
1:27 pm
uusue2
we are ok, Jill, it's been almost 2 weeks since Frank's last chemo so he's feeling as well as he gets

ChampFit
Someone clued it earlier as a person without a real interest in things...change the last letter to make it have an Italian ending.
3:21 pm
MollyL
And it was also clued as an art lover with a different last vowel. Weird, no interest...love for art...same word.
3:22 pm
gremlinn
I only found it after seeing the changed-letter word there as a phantom and figuring I'd try different vowel endings just in case (as I hadn't found the 10 yet)
3:23 pm
ChampFit
The clue made sense to me, but I had to google it to figure out what consonant to double. Kept missing it.
3:28 pm
mattygroves
Oh, that was good! (Who)
3:34 pm
jwr
10 definition is one (well, pl) who has an interest, but a shallow one with only superficial knowledge (enough to impress, say, at a cocktail party -- do they still have those? -- about art, music, theater, etc. then moves on to the next one.
3:37 pm
MollyL
The definition given here is two-part. The superficial person and then a person with a genuine interest. That is why I find the word confusing.

Evening all.I'm not a Dr Who fan, but I've just watched Season 3 of Luther on Netflix. Hoo-hah! All I can say is.... Watch It. It's terrific.
3:40 pm
jwr
I think the word "genuine" as part of the definition is incorrect (wouldn't be the first time in this dictionary, would it?). The only way I've ever heard the word used is disparagingly ... synonym for dabbler.
3:41 pm
jwr
now you've got me hooked; going to look it up in a "real" dictionary
3:42 pm
MollyL
Also not a Dr. Who fan, but I know why Soodle likes Luther. Idris!

Molly, I think I found the answer to the 10 confusion. Main definition is a person whose interest in an art or in an area of knowledge is not very deep or serious. Etymology: delight. So the interest is real; just doesn't go very deep.
3:47 pm
MollyL
Well then, the definition here is junk, which doesn't surprise me.
3:47 pm
Soodle
<thinking aloud... Cannot think of a red-blooded straight woman who would not be extremely impressed by Idris....
3:48 pm
jwr
just tickled me: think of our "question mark" definitions as for di10 people!
3:49 pm
jwr
correction - as di10-ish. Babblers are never thus.
3:50 pm
mattygroves
Finally - fw thanks to morewords (cheating, I know - but I'd have never got the te 5/12 without it)
3:50 pm
Soodle
Tiny Ruby, Molls? Is that OUR Ruby your tLking about?
3:50 pm
MollyL
Ah, but there are red-blooded, straight women who find Mick Jagger and Tom Petty hot...so there is no accounting for some red-blooded, straight women's taste.
3:51 pm
MollyL
Of course it's our Ruby I'm talking about.
3:51 pm
Soodle
🎼🎧🎂Yay Matty!!!!
3:52 pm
MollyL
In my opinion, there is no "cheating" while playing this game. You play it the way you want to.
3:52 pm
Soodle
Hmmm. I wouldn't kick Mick Jagger out of bed....
3:53 pm
mattygroves
Guten Nacht, alles - bis Morgen!
3:53 pm
Soodle
Nite Matty
3:54 pm
MollyL
Ha! I Wouldn't Kick Him Out Of Bed is a game that the girls that I run with and I play.
3:54 pm
mattygroves
OK, telly's on and there's an ad for Christmas and how we all wish it started earlier. I DON'T!
3:55 pm
Soodle
Lol! I'd love to play that game with you & your gals, Molls! With loads of alcohol involved!
3:55 pm
gremlinn
Seems like advertisers think the holiday ads are all fair game starting October 1st.
3:56 pm
gremlinn
I'll take the snow starting earlier, at least.
3:57 pm
MollyL
I would kick Mick. Unless I had to put up with him for his money. Then perhaps a lot of alcohol and a bag for his head would do the trick.
3:59 pm
Soodle
Ha ha! An old Irish saying springs to mind! Nobody looks at the fireplace when they are poking the fire...
3:59 pm
MollyL
And that probably wouldn't even work because teenage boy waistlines are a deal breaker for me.
4:00 pm
MollyL
Soodle, you know that saying was created by people who get drunk and go home with someone who appalls them in the morning, right?
4:01 pm
Soodle
Helloooo!!! Yes, Molls.
4:02 pm
MollyL
It's like the line "Drink up baby, I get prettier as the night goes on"
4:03 pm
Soodle
I have been that soldier. :-(
4:06 pm
MollyL
9 times out of 10 that gets said to someone who needs to get better looking as well, soldier. : D
4:14 pm
Soodle
Well, off I go to the pub, taxi'll be here in 10 mins. Enough time to fix the face. Nite all. :-)
4:15 pm
MollyL
Ooo, Soodle is on the prowl. Happy hunting Soodle.
