  1. Gah! Definitely nuthin' toothpick happening here. Well, did I kick @ss....surrounded by giggling 13 year-olds, terrified of getting their hair wet. Lots of roundhouse kicks and punches (did you know that one can sweat in the water?)! and now my legs are quite wobbly. No new bruises! However, the chlorine has made my hair look look Winehousish..... ...
  2. We called 'em floaties! Perhaps it was just the idea of suggesting I float around the pool like a little old lady with arm thingies on...
  3. Patti........yes. Hafta say, I don't often board those flights.... Much funnier for me were Laurel and Hardy. Now there was some great, ahead-of-its-time comedic stuff. Just saw Way Out West again for the first time in many years, and guffawed heartily. Great stuff, Tom! Happy to hear it was a real song, and not...
  4. Oh, duuuuuhhhhh..... Yeah, misread the "crappy" for "happy". So you're still not well, Amanda. Janet didn't get the Tamiflu to you fast enough.... I've arranged for DD's hockey team to do a cross-training session in the Y pool tonight. Should be quite funny, all these thirteen-year old girls thinking, "Oh, how sappy...floating around a pool...
  5. Hey, Amanda! You're feeling happy, so you must be better. Great! How's John?
  6. Morning, gang! Don't see you on here yet, Amanda. I do hope you and John are better! Called my dad lat night, and told him of your brother's significant lifting of mood in the hospital when talking about the show. There was a pause, and he asked, "Uh.....is this a regular hospital?...what's, uh....the matter with him? This could explain much". ...
  7. Oh, Alex!! That has warmed my heart like you won't believe!! I cannot wait to tell my dad this. I do hope that Colin is over the hump of his illness....poor guy.
  8. Thinking about Landen, Amanda...and you and John. Enough of this Sickness in Sillyville! I must, finally, jump into the curl debate. I have spent my entire life dreaming of having big curls, and have spent countless dollars on perms and curling irons. My hair is poker straight. Cannot do ANYTHING with it. I spend so much time styling it, trying to...
  9. Some astounding tongue-twisters ensue..... "Well, I'll be Janeted!" "Oh, gosh Janet-it all!" This is how phrases get coined...we must start sprinkling our discourse with these. Janet, you don't mind us taking your name in vain? It has quite a memorable sound to it....
  10. Tom!! I have hit the magic triangle in such instances, and it gives me the original window, with all the quotes I have tagged, ready for me to respond to. All of my responses are gone. So while it doesn't get lost completely, it still is NOT magic enough for me....In fact, I am using, but not mastering. PLEASE EXPLAIN! Gawd, I need a magic triangle....
  11. Gaaahhh! Lost my big, longgggg post. POOPA DOOP!!! To precis it all: Amanda, so sorry about hubby and NOW YOU! Take care... Janet, you are absolutely right. Grammar is SO UNFUNNY. I will not respond to Alex's question about adverbial particles,. It's very interesting, and highly amusing, but I shan't chance it... Poor wee Annie...
  12. Oh!! I'm afraid I MUST, at this time, insert a mini (I promise) grammar lesson. This will make everyone feel a little better, perhaps less intimidated, by the dreaded preposition usage. Janet, your original use of "up" in your note was correct, and needed no alteration. This is due to the fact that it was part of what we call a phrasal verb. These...
  13. Morning, all! Ohhhh, it's cold here. Minus fifteen. Blechhhh.... I noticed the word in the hilarious site that Janet posted...an unofficial Canadian dictionary. Arseveur is likely from the East Coast boating communities, denoting one end of a canoe or rowboat ("that there's the end where the arse of hers goes. Mine goes up here").....
  14. Keep us posted, Amanda! You're the support system, so take care of yourself...try to get a good night's sleep...
  15. Oh, Amanda! I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm thinking about you guys...maybe a mug of some hot liquid jello? My heart goes out to you, Alex. I think many of us have lovely, yet needy, relatives. As Susie said, he's lucky to have you...and a great dog! Thinking about you guys..... So, watching the Grammys as I type. Rumour...
  16. What on earth is the noun form of HEINOUS? Heinousness? Heinousation? Hmmmmm... Exactly, and then it would be sex with some meaning....you'd be meaning to get your floors fixed up--there you go! Gus is amazing this way, too. And I don't know how he knows when the mailman is coming, because the time does change day to day, but...
  17. Amanda, this sounds like an interesting opportunity! Like the sounds of this, so far... Well.....looking around, brow creased......Of course we're talking about simple, meaningless sex...aren't we? Why on earth would you ever even remotely consider a very attractive child/man with limited intellect, experience and wisdom, unless it were...
  18. Yes, yes! One could be charting one's phlatus (phlatii?) like the stars. Perhaps we have signs and can get a sense of personal traits through this charting.... Gad, there's no way I'm in alignment with DH.....his chart is way off the charts. Susie!! Why don't you have hardwood? I cannot imagine life with dogs (or even without) in a home...
  19. Good news, Patti. I actually was wondering.....Perhaps not quite on the edge of my seat, but thinking of you..
  20. You could chart your flatus with his, and see how things measure up. Are firefighters gassy individuals? I should think not....would be quite a hazard in a burning building, methinks. Yes, Susie, I think you should try a date with him. Why not? May be very good for you, and he probably won't know what hit him. Blunted affect.....don't think...
  21. I was just telling my dad this yesterday...how they should get a Wii at their retirement home, and they could have competitions/tourneys in the games room. I'm going to press my mom to bring it up at their next council meeting, of which she is the no-farting-around, if-you're senile-you-have-no-place-here president. I'm sad about my dad....anyone see...
  22. You have? And you still have irritable bowels, and exhaustion? I thought those symptoms ALWAYS went away when gluten was abandoned..... Gluten isn't the only destructive life-changer out there?!
  23. I am wondering if anyone else has ever had the problem my family is facing right now. Since my celiac diagnosis three years ago, I have long suspected my dad, as well, has a problem with gluten; he's had the classic symptoms through most of my lifetime. He was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's, and I, of course, keep wondering how many of the symptoms...
  24. It was a dim, romantic place, so no. Shows how smashing it must have looked, if an almost complete stranger noticed it in candlelight! Hoglets will be back by tomorrow.... Why can't I ever get my hair to look as nice as the pros do? I'm an artist, I've bought their scads of ridiculously-priced product, got the tools, and the tenacity of a bulldog. Nope...
