How have you been?
12:32 am

Good. I took my first trip to Europe this summer. It was My Big Adventure. Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Regensburg, Paris, 3 nights in Iceland and Harmlem, NYC on each end.
12:32 am
melonheadjujube
Harlmr! I should look when I type.
12:32 am

Wow... sounds nice. :)
12:33 am

I travelled alone, at utter liberty for 5 weeks.
12:33 am

You didn't know this? I thought your wife was Jewish?
12:39 am

love learning jewish words
12:39 am
rururocks
she is.. but she didn't speak jewish
12:39 am
ARB
That was Hebrew, not Yiddish
12:39 am
negativeneil
Uhhh... you mean Hebrew. ;)
12:40 am
rururocks
Hebrew.. sorry
12:40 am
negativeneil
^5, Arb!
12:40 am
ARB
Jewish is the religion, Yiddishis thelanguage
12:40 am
negativeneil
Thanks for saving me that explanation, ARB. :)
12:40 am
rururocks
ah.. ok
12:40 am
negativeneil
Hebrew and Yiddish...
12:40 am
negativeneil
and/or? :P
12:41 am
rururocks
she didn't speak much Hebrew.. my friends in NYC taught me a lot of Yiddish :D
12:41 am
negativeneil
Judaism is the religion... Jewish is more than just that.
12:41 am
ARB
Both Hebrew and Yiddish are languages. Yiddish is Old German, Hebrew is an ancient Semitic language.
12:41 am
negativeneil
Judaism is the religion of the Jewish people.
12:41 am

2:04 am
sprite
*hugs Liz* Hello there! How are the both of you today?
2:04 am
Lizlin
OK thanks and you and yours?
2:05 am
sprite
good to hear. We are ok, except for a cold virus that is working its way through our family.
2:06 am
Lizlin
Yuck! That's autumn, I guess! Wish you all better.
2:07 am
sprite
thanks. Should pass soon, though never soon enough ;)
2:07 am
Lizlin
How's the eating now?
2:09 am
sprite
in between the tiny tummy and the soar throat, not too great, lol. Liquids are best, atm.
2:09 am
Lizlin
Bit of a setback :(
2:11 am
sprite
just temporary. I don't worry about it, as long as I drink enough, the rest will come once the virus has passed.
2:12 am
Lizlin
I'm sure it will. Hopefully before too long.
2:13 am
sprite
from your mouth... :)
How are things at your side? Battling heat already?
2:14 am
Lizlin
Yes, this week has been stormy - so hot and a bit humid. Not too bad yet.
2:15 am
sprite
doesn't sound comfy. We are entering cold weather here now. Can't go out without a coat anymore.
2:17 am
Lizlin
And I sit here at 6.15 pm in shorts and vest t- shirt.
2:17 am
Lizlin
The rain has been at night though, which is the best.
2:18 am
sprite
ah that is a good thing. Yeah it is always odd to think how far apart we are, while it doesn't feel that way at all :)
2:19 am
Lizlin
Saw a great film today - though our friends didn't like it. Called The Dressmaker. Aussie film - lots of caricatures. Quite black but also funny. Got mixed reviews.
2:19 am
Lizlin
That's true.
2:19 am
sprite
sounds good. Glad you enjoyed it!
2:20 am
Lizlin
It's weird seeing a film at 9.30am though.
2:20 am
sprite
lol indeed! Why so early?
2:21 am
Lizlin
That's the time it was on. I think there were other showings but our friends organised it.
2:22 am
sprite
ah ok. Kind of fun, actually. Very different from normal.
2:22 am
Lizlin
Followed by coffee, which was good.
2:23 am
Lizlin
I think lots of people start very early here - I prefer later.
2:23 am
sprite
and cookies, I hope
2:23 am
Lizlin
We shared a scone.

With jam and cream of course :)

2:48 am
Lizlin
Interesting.
2:49 am
grannyrose
it was raining when we left, but had backed off to a drizzle when we arrived. don pushed me around in the wheelchair. he only nearly tipped me out twice...lolll
2:50 am
grannyrose
it was a trip organised by a couple from our church. and no, organise is not in the grid. i kept on trying to find it. i was so sure it was.
2:51 am
Lizlin
hadnt tried that one.
2:51 am
grannyrose
and there is no such word as organate either. i know, i tried several ti5.
2:52 am
Lizlin
Another storm brewing here - 100 km away according to hubby. Will probably split around us again.
2:52 am
grannyrose
i hope so liz. these storms are impressive. so much water in a matter if minutes.
2:53 am
grannyrose
organate = carnivorous musical instrument
2:53 am
Lizlin
They often split around us. We're in a rain shadow.
2:54 am
Lizlin
I like that one.
2:54 am
Lizlin
I'm sure sprite will add it.
2:54 am
sprite

2:55 am
Lizlin

3:03 am
sprite
*hugs back* Am glad you had a good outing, rose. Did it work for you to use the TENS during travel?
3:04 am
grannyrose
yes it did sprite. i am glad i thought of it. and the bus driver was so helpful. getting the chair in and out. and helping me down the steps.
3:05 am
sprite
as he should be!
3:07 am
grannyrose
oh and we had to take lunch with us. i went especially with don to buy some cold meat for his sandwiches. i suggested pariser. he curled his lip. i offered strasburg. he didn't. and i thought okay, stras it is. he then claimed when we got home he doesn't like stras. *sigh* i nearly stuffed it in his left ear.
3:07 am
sprite
ohhhhhh! I hope you told him he better bloody well eat it and like it!
3:08 am
grannyrose
so i made him stras and salad sandwiches. i had a quarter cold bbq chicken and a sandwich with 1/2 an avocado and a third of a block of brie in it.
3:08 am
sprite
sounds good, rose. Did himself behave?
3:09 am
grannyrose
when he ate it, i asked how was his sandwich. the beast said, with a twinkle in his eye, that he couldn't taste any of the meat.
3:09 am
sprite
roflolllll he is so bad. But funny :)
3:09 am
grannyrose
i had a good mind to shake his can of pepsi vigorously before handing it to hom.
3:10 am
sprite
I hope you told him, in that case next time you will simply leave out the meat...
3:11 am
grannyrose
oh, and the roma tomatoes were just amazing. i was walking past them, and the most wonderful smell of properly ripened tomato wafted by.
3:12 am

For anybody who would like a clue at any time, feel free to ask. There is no wrong way to play Babble. If there is someone who does not care for the amount of clues posted in the chog on any given day,the creator of babble has cleverly inserted a way to turn chat off, but still be able to play the game. Never be ashamed of asking for clues--ever. Most babblers do not have a problem with this--myself included. Just wanted to get that our for clarification :)

one of the students here got angry with his dad, and decided to "get back" at him. The dad runs his own business, and had brought home a pouch containing the week's monies received. Which the son stole, brought to school, and spent an entire school day surreptitiously handing out money to DOZENS of kids. The school is asking any middle schoolers who received money to return it, saying they won't be in trouble, etc. etc.

Well, thanks. Report cards were done at 3:30, and by 4:30 I was done getting ready for a pre-8 o'clock conference Monday morning. Lost my keys to the school, so I don't have a way to go in this weekend. Curse/blessing really, I have a great excuse to have a small mess Monday morning! :-)

Interstellar. Saw it in the summer, but Tom got it on one of the services, too. It's a good movie.

Some of it's great, some of it feels contrived. Thought the ending was really interesting.
