Hello there Ms. Podcast. George is OK. I had to take him to the vet a couple of days ago because he was sick. He wouldn’t even yap at people. They put him on antibiotics and he’s fine today. Back to his usual yappy self. 🙂
I think you need to start an email campaign on CG (and suggest she bring the guest of her choice) — I know you have the persuasive powers to pull this off.
SN drives up to Philly and stays with CG. Then the whole Philly contingent comes to Chicago for the day. That would be SN, CG, Chris, PsiFighter and, yes, BooMan (I’m waiving the requirement that he must say something nice about the midwest.)
They all fly home at the end of the day, SN stays the night with CG. And drives home.
Albert’s are fine, thus far, but I have yet to make an apt. to get mine fixed. Like most people, I hate going to the dentist and will avoid it as long as possible.
I’m shocked, SHOCKED, that you don’t know them. But they WERE lovely people who were welcoming when we weaseled our way into their tour.
Then they mentioned how we were the only American tourists they had run into in Italy, there didn’t seem to be many Americans travelling. I said, “Well, that’s a relief to the world.” And we were fast friends after 🙂
BUT … one woman told me she recently flew into Chicago and had NO PROBLEMS. I told her I was relieved and I was going to pass that on to my friend Olivia from Ottawa who was nervous about her upcoming flight to our meetup. 🙂
Sorry to hear of your CTS problems especially since it keeps us from hearing from you. Could you dictate messages for someone else to type for you?
I’ve had a mild to moderate case for some time kept (usually) under control by wearing antivibration gloves when I use machinery, wearing the ever-attractive braces to bed, acupuncture and, oddly enough, bass guitar lessons. I can’t take anti-inflammatory drugs so have to go with alternative methods.
Clean and roomy cafe. You can even walk barefooted in the grass.
I’ll take 27 Martinis please. 🙂
Enjoying talking to yourself?
Actually yes. I find myself to be very funny and intelligent. Plus when I talk to myself there’s never any pause in the conservation. 🙂
Can you ask Froggy bottom when the next musical is going to be? 🙂
I did and he said when we have Mary’s undivided attention. I told him you are a busy person, but he was adamant about it.
I’ll work on him. 🙂
but, but but
no on ever has my undivided attention.
That’s why all my relationships fail ::sniff::
Sorry just as I started to type, FMom decided she wanted to go to bed, so I had to get her back to her bedroom.
As far as undivided attention. Not even for the Froggy? :~)
I’m just a born multi-tasker 🙂
You’re saying that if I give the froggy my undivided attention something good will happen?
Good things come to those that follow the froggy.
Or
I’ll get off my lazy back end and think up something. 🙂
I’m going to multitask and watch CSI …
How’s George doing these days?
Hello there Ms. Podcast. George is OK. I had to take him to the vet a couple of days ago because he was sick. He wouldn’t even yap at people. They put him on antibiotics and he’s fine today. Back to his usual yappy self. 🙂
His haircut must have been too short … maybe it was his juju.
Don’t know what it was, but glad he’s over it.
What’s the difference between juju and mojo?
mojo is an object and juju is the spirit of mojo or the power of the object …
We need the rain. If only we didn’t have a catchment tour of our local rivulet today. Sigh.
Everytime I go to the Dog Blog I want to kidnap Luna. She’s so beautiful.
I think you need to start an email campaign on CG (and suggest she bring the guest of her choice) — I know you have the persuasive powers to pull this off.
I don’t think CG or her guest would go to Tasmania with me to kidnap Luna …
Do you mean that I should start e-mailing her incessently or that I should organize everyone else (that would be you) to e-mail her?
sheesh, if she’ll just send me her credit card number I’ll book the flights for her.
BTW — what shall we call our travel agency? Marandi Travel? Or … you want to be first I expect. OK.
(there’s no ritz down the street from keres either)
As for CG, this is clearly a quest requiring your significantly greater skills of argument and persuasion.
SN drives up to Philly and stays with CG. Then the whole Philly contingent comes to Chicago for the day. That would be SN, CG, Chris, PsiFighter and, yes, BooMan (I’m waiving the requirement that he must say something nice about the midwest.)
They all fly home at the end of the day, SN stays the night with CG. And drives home.
It’s a no brainer. 🙂
Not bad — except for the drive up from Raleigh to Philly which is a pretty hefty drive.
But if anyone can sell it, it’s you.
I think that’s a 7-hour ride.
7 hours? pffft. Nothing.
So who’s picking us all up at the airport then?
In Chicago? You are taking the el. less than $5.00 round trip.
Hmmm…will we be able to make the 10:30 architecterure trip if our flight gets in at 9:45?
Just askin’.
The cruise is at 11:00, we’re just meeting at 10:30. It’s about an hour into the city.
But if you’re worried there is a 7:00 flight that gets in at 8:10. Plenty of time.
You could make it if the flight was on time — not something I’d want to count on.
OK, fine. For an additional $138 she can fly round trip to Philly. Come in on Friday — Leave on Monday.
she doesn’t have to do it the day before — she could go up early.
She could take the Greyhound Bus!
Uh yes, SN on a greyhound bus — yup, that sounds like a match made in the first circle of hell.
Why did SN decide she couldn’t make it?
ryan’s birthday, parent’s weekend at ryan’s school, and money
money, ryan’s birthday, and parent’s weekend and Colin’s school. Plus the other unmentionable reason. Ok, back to ER.
We are planing a litter of pups out of her.
And there’s minimal quarantine requirements from here to the US (‘cuz we don’t have rabies).
hmmmmmm 🙂
How’s everyone’s teeth doing?
Albert’s are fine, thus far, but I have yet to make an apt. to get mine fixed. Like most people, I hate going to the dentist and will avoid it as long as possible.
Did you check out the Ottawans?
yes
I’m shocked, SHOCKED, that you don’t know them. But they WERE lovely people who were welcoming when we weaseled our way into their tour.
Then they mentioned how we were the only American tourists they had run into in Italy, there didn’t seem to be many Americans travelling. I said, “Well, that’s a relief to the world.” And we were fast friends after 🙂
BUT … one woman told me she recently flew into Chicago and had NO PROBLEMS. I told her I was relieved and I was going to pass that on to my friend Olivia from Ottawa who was nervous about her upcoming flight to our meetup. 🙂
… what’s that word dada use: you’re an inveigler maryb … 😉

is when you say that you are really coming
Hello All… I’m still here, but am really struggling with the CTS situation. I’m doing everything I can think of to make it get better fast…. :-)(-:
Sorry to hear of your CTS problems especially since it keeps us from hearing from you. Could you dictate messages for someone else to type for you?
