2:02 am

2:03 am

grannyrose

so please let me know if you need a hand with airfare to France and home. and if i can pay for it when we arrive there in Amsterdam .

2:03 am

sprite

ok, will check that out too. Geneva is prolly closest

2:03 am

grannyrose

i am going to email pugs, but ruby did say that she, ruby, didn't think pugs would come.

2:04 am

sprite

I don't think so either. But maybe she will surprise us all :)

2:05 am

grannyrose

sprite there is an airport at Annecy.

2:05 am

sprite

for how long will we stay in veyrier?

2:06 am

grannyrose

3 days and 4 nights.

2:06 am

sprite

there is? O wow, that is very close

2:07 am

grannyrose

from there a 10 minute bus ride will bring you to Veyrier

2:09 am

sprite

no flights at all to annecy, it seems :(

2:10 am

grannyrose

strange, has the airport been closed or just on the wrong day?

2:11 am

sprite

can't find any reference to an airport in annecy so far

2:12 am

grannyrose

www.annecy.aeroport.fr/home

2:12 am

sprite

ah, here, mont blanc annecy

2:13 am

grannyrose

we are taking the train, because we will be able to see a lot of the country-side

2:14 am

sprite

can't seem to book a flight though. Usual unhelpful french site, lol

2:15 am

grannyrose

maybe go through Amsterdam airport.

2:15 am

sprite

that is where I started. They don't show any annecy destinations

2:17 am

sprite

nope, only to geneva

2:18 am

sprite

or lyon-st exupery

2:18 am

grannyrose

i wonder....

2:18 am

sprite

will ask ruby. She might know best

2:20 am

grannyrose

prolly a good idea.

2:21 am

sprite

no flights found

2:21 am

sprite

ok, ruby it is :)

2:23 am

sprite

but if the costs from schiphol to geneva are any indication, I can easily pay for it

2:25 am

grannyrose

so long as you are quite sure, honey. we'll talk it over during our stay in Amsterdam. xoxox

2:25 am

sprite

all good :)

2:26 am

sprite

2:28 am

2:29 am

2:29 am

grannyrose

2:30 am

sprite

:D it is gonna be so much fun!

2:30 am

grannyrose

we'll celebrate it with him the day before... lolll, last man standing pays the bar bill.

2:30 am

sprite

roflolllll

2:31 am

sprite

knowing Rob, it won't be any problem. He doesn't care much for birthdays and such.

2:31 am

grannyrose

awww, dinner for everyone will be on me. tell him to pick the ultimate restaurant please.

2:33 am

grannyrose

make sure the food is his absolute favourite, right?

2:33 am

sprite

ohhhh cool! We have this terrific tapaz restaurant... mix of spanish, mexican and others... fusion? Great people, lovely menus, great chef.

2:33 am

grannyrose

yum, yum.

2:34 am

grannyrose

closer to the date, book us in, kids included, if they have time...

2:34 am

sprite

not expensive either, and my most favorite part: you can order '4 course menu' and they will bring you their best. No need to choose, though you can if you want to

2:35 am

grannyrose

cost is NOT a factor sprite.

2:35 am

sprite

ok, will do. And check with the kids.

2:36 am

grannyrose

hmmm, and a cake ?? with sparklers on it?

2:36 am

sprite

sweetie, I hear ya, but it is really a favorite of ours. No need to go any more expensive, this is great

2:36 am

sprite

I can tell the restaurant it is for his birthday and to do something fun... they will love to

2:37 am

sprite

he'll be mortified though :)

2:37 am

grannyrose

just remember this trip is going to be one to tick off my bucket list..

2:37 am

grannyrose

and tell Rob.... no backing out... lolll

2:38 am

sprite

:D

2:38 am

grannyrose

the only excus i will accept is loss of life.

2:38 am

grannyrose

ugh... *excuse*

2:38 am

sprite

I am against that, personally

2:41 am

grannyrose

lolll. everytime we go on a holiay don had conniptions if i tell anyone we are going. this time my lips are sealed... and he has been telling all and sundry. and i am going... huh ??

2:42 am

sprite

*grins* give the man credit for learning to relax...

2:43 am

grannyrose

yeah. thanx sistah.

2:43 am

grannyrose

i am not complaining... remember the tax return..

2:44 am

sprite

2:45 am

grannyrose

2:46 am

grannyrose

can you imagine? apart from customs etc, the first european i meet will be you...

2:46 am

sprite

I am honored. Of course you will have to keep in mind I may not be representatve for all europeans... especially for the sane ones...

2:47 am

grannyrose

SANE?? define sane...not in my thesaurus or dictionary...

2:48 am

sprite

sane = them others

2:49 am

grannyrose

oh yeah. all the wold is mad save thee and me... and i have my doubts about thee.

2:49 am

sprite

you may have the right of it there, sistah

2:50 am

grannyrose

*cheshire cat type grin*

2:50 am

sprite

oh... wait... checking... you guys will stay here until June 8. How can we go out for dinner on the 15th then?

2:51 am

grannyrose

oh, erase that....

2:52 am

grannyrose

2:52 am

sprite

he'll be just fine with that

2:53 am

grannyrose

2:54 am

Boy, there seems to be a serious lag in the chog tonight; everyone else must already be done I guess!

9:59 pm

origami

sorry Nef. I have been off listening to an acoustic CSN album. I wandered off also

9:59 pm

Nef

How are you doing tonight? I hope your cold is over & you are back to normal now?

It is over, thanks. How are you doing?

Nef

thanks.

10:39 pm

origami

oops ... meant to say That is how exciting I am :D

10:39 pm

Sounds like an exciting evening, oriole's. ;-)

10:40 pm

Major excitement goes down here all the time!

10:40 pm

Nef

I might even finish this grid; I have 59 words left to find

10:40 pm

origami

Go Nef!

10:42 pm

Nef

(Of course, you know I'm pretty much the eternal optimist, especially once I get half way in Babble! ;-)

10:57 pm

rururocks

has someone been in your drawers ori?

10:58 pm

Nef

LOL! Good one ru; but I think she's gone for a while (I'm not positive though)

11:01 pm

rururocks

I should shelve my humor then :D

11:02 pm

Nef

Naw, go right ahead & pun all you want

11:10 pm

rururocks

ok

11:10 pm

rururocks

I wonder if ori had a one-nightstand :D

11:13 pm

Nef

You got a groan from me on that one, ru! :-)

11:15 pm

rururocks

thank you :D

11:16 pm

Nef

YW. :-) (but just think: did you just tarnish ori's reputation here in Babble?

11:16 pm

rururocks

naw.. just kidding

11:17 pm

rururocks

ori's a tough cookie.. she can take my jokes in stride

11:17 pm

Nef

It was sparkling clean before tonight you know.

11:18 pm

Nef

We *all* have shiny bright reputations here; right?

11:18 pm

Nef

(I'm not very good at this, am I?)

11:21 pm

rururocks

ha.. nice try

11:22 pm

Nef

That's all I can do; give its try...

11:22 pm

Nef

(Even if I flop)

11:23 pm

rururocks

you just need to get a twisted mind like mine and it's easy from there

11:24 pm

Nef

My mind has had too many years of straight & narrow; however, if I work at it I should do better in a week or 2.

11:26 pm

rururocks

it's fun to let loose and let your hair down a bit isn't it?

11:26 pm

Nef

I've had some pretty wicked black humor in the past (my old nursing buddies back in ICU: sometimes if we didn't laugh; we might end up crying)

11:27 pm

Nef

Yeah, laughter doesn't hurt --- much ;-)

11:28 pm

rururocks

it helps me a lot in life

11:28 pm

Nef

I really have been too serious for a long time!

11:29 pm

rururocks

hmmm. .ok

11:31 pm

rururocks

I was hoping to hear from the new woman in my life tonight. but she's at the movies and may still be out at dinner or something

11:32 pm

Nef

Did you meet her through ori?

11:32 pm

rururocks

no.. my realtor introduced us.

11:33 pm

rururocks

I sent her flowers today a day early so that she could take them home from work to enjoy at home

11:33 pm

Nef

Ahh! That's a nice realtor! :-)

11:33 pm

rururocks

yeah.. she's been good to me :D

11:34 pm

Nef

Sold you a house & got you a lady friend to boot! Yes, I'd say she was nice to you!

11:34 pm

rururocks

lol

11:35 pm

rururocks

she kept asking me again and again if I was interested in dating after my divorce and I kept telling her no that I wasn't ready

11:35 pm

Nef

(She didn't charge you for the lady friend, did she? ;-)

11:36 pm

rururocks

nope.. no commissions on that

11:36 pm

Nef

Sorry, the *Introduction* to a lady friend!

11:36 pm

rururocks

I did cook her dinner last weekend with a big group of people

11:36 pm

m9f9l

Uh oh.. the realtors supplied lady friends in Soylent Green.

11:36 pm

m9f9l

ROFL... you didn't cook the big group of people, right?

11:36 pm

Nef

LOL, m9! How are you tonight?

11:37 pm

m9f9l

Sorry. I have a sick sense of humor sometimes.

11:37 pm

m9f9l

I'm great!

11:38 pm

Nef

Well, the way *I* first said it; it sounded (to me at least) like the realtor was a pimp!

11:38 pm

m9f9l

I am very, VERY happy for you Ru!! What did you make for dinner?

11:40 pm

rururocks

lots of stuff m9.. we started with a crab, grapefruit, avocado and endive salad,,

11:40 pm

Nef

Oh Yes! What did you fix for supper that night? (I always think of you as being a gourmet cook)

11:40 pm

rururocks

then had tenderloins of beef with smoked mushrooms and carrots and asparagus with shallots and thyme

11:40 pm

m9f9l

Yum.. I love grapefruit and avocado together

11:40 pm

Nef

Sounds good for starters

11:40 pm

m9f9l

Wow!!

11:40 pm

rururocks

then dessert was a vanilla bourbon crÃ¨me brulee with raspberries

11:41 pm

m9f9l

What a great menu!

11:41 pm

rururocks

with great wine.. it came out great too

11:41 pm

Nef

YUM!!!

11:42 pm

rururocks

my new friend said she had a feeling I could cook, but didn't know I cooked that well

11:43 pm

Nef

I always teased my DH that the reason I married him was because he could cook! While we were dating, he made a meal for me that included stuff Corning Game Hens (with mushroom & walnuts & who knows what else in the stuffing)

11:43 pm

m9f9l

Nice. The way to a girl's heart.. <3

11:44 pm

Nef

I tried to make baked potatoes & steaks for him while dating --- & I blew up the oven!

11:45 pm

Nef

Yep! Growing up I had no interest in cooking but I always heard that the way to a man's heart was through his stomach; but it was the opposite with us.

11:45 pm

m9f9l

Oh my!

11:47 pm

m9f9l

My Dad was the good cook too, and my Mom was terrible at cooking.

11:47 pm

Nef

We got married in our late 20's; he'd been through the Navy & was going to college on the GI bill. I was already an RN & I always ate my main meal of the day at the hospital.

11:48 pm

rururocks

my mom was a horrible cook

11:48 pm

Nef

SO, for the first 2 years of our marriage he did ALL the cooking.

11:48 pm

rururocks

I did most of the cooking for my brother and me

11:49 pm

rururocks

my parents were gone all the time gambling

11:49 pm

m9f9l

Wow Ru. You had to grow up early.

11:50 pm

Nef

I've learned through the years; now I do almost all of the cooking (even with our son living here. I still don't *enjoy* cooking; but I can whip up a decent meal in less than an hour without using packaged food.

11:50 pm

rururocks

sure..

11:50 pm

rururocks

I love to cook nef.. it's relaxation for me

11:50 pm

m9f9l

Good for you Nef!

11:51 pm

m9f9l

My married daughter has been doing most of our dinners. It's her way of giving back. I do two a week :-)

11:51 pm

Nef

Wow, ru, that's why you've said it was tough growing up.

11:52 pm

rururocks

oh.. you have no idea nef

11:53 pm

Nef

I once made a coffee cake that our neighbor couldn't even cut (It would have been a great door stop)

11:53 pm

rururocks

lol I suck at baking too nef

11:53 pm

rururocks

if you can't measure exactly.. baking should be avoided.. I just can't measure exactly

11:53 pm

Nef

Over the years you've said as much, ru. :-(

11:54 pm

m9f9l

fw

11:54 pm

m9f9l

It depends on the baking.

11:54 pm

Nef

LOL! I just don't use the oven anymore; if there's a way to avoid it: I do

11:55 pm

rururocks

i'm not whining.. it was just the way it was for my brother and me

11:55 pm

rururocks

I don't use the oven much either nef..

11:55 pm

Nef

YAY, m9!!!! WTG!!!

11:55 pm

m9f9l

Are you close with your brother?

11:55 pm

rururocks

not so much.. he's a little disfunctional

11:56 pm

rururocks

good timing to finish m9

11:56 pm

Nef

that's too bad about your brother, ru.

11:56 pm

m9f9l

That's too bad.

11:57 pm

m9f9l

Good for you for making it through.

11:57 pm

rururocks

yeah.. it is.. he had a lot of potential and pissed it all away

11:58 pm

m9f9l

My sister says that she always thought we were such a dysfunctional family, and then she grew older and got to know more people and saw some very dysfunctional folks and now she says we were quasi-dysfunctional. LOL

11:59 pm
