[emily655321]

1:25am, at home.... About to give the kittens their bedtime formula. Should be doing laundry, taking a shower, and going to bed. ;) As you can see, that's not what I'm doing.

[evulik]

9:07 p.m., in office trying to find all possible laws about VAT and taxes :mad: and my computer broke down yesterday and everything is lost (no backup) :mad: and I am having glass of good wine and I am going to take a good shower, just thought I would stop by here and say you guys HELLO ;) life is a miracle. when you think it cannot surprise you, it will in that second...

[amuse]

10:59 (22:59) trying to find more words on playbabble.com instead of apartment hunting.

7.47 at my office, reading this forum

[emily655321]

11:43pm, alternately reading this forum and playing Bubbles (http://www.freepgs.com/mindistortion/games/bubbles.htm). B****in' soundtrack! :D

[Koa]

uhm... 13:48, had lunch, just thought I'd have a look at the forum cos I haven't done it in a couple of days, then I'll watch Futurama and I'll be back to the book I'm reading to finish it cos it's really involving me. I'm in a strange sort-of-pissed-off-mood-for-no-reason again.

[amuse]

oh, cool! that was me yesterday (and today at 06:00 hours :eek: for a store meeting). Koa, you have company!!! :D

[Stanislaw]

12:30 pm eating lunch at work and checking this forum, even teachers get a break... :banana:

[subterranean]

7.40 at the office..seeing a dancing banana ...

[emily655321]

10:21am at home...trying to compile a list of questions for the college admissions office...missing the adopted kittens...Still loving Sub's avatar. :thumbs_up ;)

[Koa]

18:55, didn't do much at all today again, quite boring... read, wrote a letter and maybe a poem... going out later, for a huge icecream apparently, maybe to the lake... Unless it rains cos the humidity seems to be so high that it must turn into rain sometime! The heat these days is unbearable... I'll be in (hopefully) fresh England soon.

I like this thread, I think it came out by chance but it fixes moments nicely :)

[nome1486]

1:20 PM, my back is hurting and I'm going to go soon to have lunch, maybe get a present for my dad's birthday, and do some shopping

[amuse]

23:30 aka 11:30 p.m. and just back from a marvelous two days with an amazing joyful, energetic (and how!!!), and marvelous 3-yr. old. am so happy, feel so at peace...

[Koa]

15:22 or 3:22pm, it's been raining for a couple of hours YUHUUUUUUU!!! Fresh, fresh and fresh!!! Had icecream at the lake last night, was nice except that I think I know how cakes feel when they're in the oven...(hot I mean) :eek:

[subterranean]

7.34 am...still reading some posts...still smiling of Emily's compliments.

Em i think i asked u this before..u free next saturday nite ?! :D

[verybaddmom]

9:52 pm...exhausted from a half day at the zoo and another half day canoeing down the bow river. sunny...hot....beautiful!

[simon]

Oh the bow river, I plunged a toe into that, but wasn't nearly hot enough to take a dunk. Where did you canoe to?

[Isagel]

10:03, having coffee at the office. After four weeks of vacation I´m not used to get up at six. The world seems strangely far away and my eyes are all swollen. Almost like jetlag. I´m all alone here, the others are still on vacation. The clinic looks all deserted, and I have no patients until 14.00. I´ll just keep on sipping my coffee.

[nome1486]

Good summary, it seems like the opening to a thriller/suspense novel! "A strange man walks in and dumps a bag of cash, then leaves"...all right, that's a crummy addition, but I'm not a writer

[subterranean]

Isagel, You got 4 weeks of vacation :smash: :( :(
Lucky you isagel....I'm still on probation..no days off :(

6.37 am..already at the office trying to make new plan in life

[verybaddmom]

Oh the bow river, I plunged a toe into that, but wasn't nearly hot enough to take a dunk. Where did you canoe to?

i would have answered that sooner, but i had no idea where i canoed to.....i just got in touch with my auntie (i went with my uncle) and apparently we started where glenmore trail crosses bow river (that's where we tossed the boat in) and she picked us up by where the hwy 22X crosses the river. it was about 8 kilometers in total and took us about three hours (we were NOT in a hurry).
AND...while i applied sunscreen four times yesterday, i still managed to get quite the burn. my son, not a bit......
:mad:
EDIT: and it was definitely hot enough to swim in it..... :cool:

[amuse]

11:50/23:50 wishing i could sleep because i have to be up early, but am not exhausted yet.

[verybaddmom]

well then go to bed, silly lady!
warm milk? seconal? sex?

[amuse]

oh, i never thought of the second. don't even own benadryl. but i like the other two options. ;) excellent ideas, as always! :D

[Isagel]

Good summary, it seems like the opening to a thriller/suspense novel! "A strange man walks in and dumps a bag of cash, then leaves"...all right, that's a crummy addition, but I'm not a writer

So very "film noir"! if this was a perfect world I would be able to write something like. " Behind the stranger the client walked in. He was a slender brunette. I knew he was trouble from the start. It always end up like that with the dark haired, dreamy eyes kind. Well, actually blondes as well. But that´s a whole different story. I sip my coffee and waits for him to start laying his trouble on me. "

(He, he - sub , do you know what the best part is? I have one week of paid vacation left to use this year! I´ll probably go to Budapest. )

[nome1486]

Much better than mine

:goof:


And I suppose I should say what I'm doing...wasting time, I guess. It's 10:18 AM and I need to take a shower and drop off some videos at Blockbuster before the looming 12:00 deadline. And I want to get back before 11:00 so I can watch Codename:Kids Next Door and see if it's as good as ajoe says ;)

[verybaddmom]

Tuesday, 10:51 am. trying to down as much coffee as possible to wake up enough to go pack my stuff. another move day looming ahead, tomorrow actually....
YAY, i finally get to unpack my stuff. this is the part of moving that i LOVE!!!
(i am such a gypsy)

[Koa]

Isagel, Budapest is GREAT!!! Go go go!!!

vbm, unpacking stresses me more than packing... I packed today for almost 3 weeks of holiday...

and it's 21:40, and I'm foruming in total relax for maybe the last time in 3 weeks, if not more... Maybe I'll have a bit of a life soon...

[subterranean]

this is saturday 7.35, i'm going to visit a port soon...:)

nothing to do while i wait

[Stanislaw]

tuesday 11:50 waiting for my biolab to start

[mono]

Tuesday 11:12 am here. At school, between an anthropology and one of my nursing courses, reading Jean-Paul Sartre's Being and Nothingness during breaks, and talking about pharmocology and organic chemistry; painstakingly manic.

[coquelicot1106]

my french teacher studied at the sorbonne and took a class on sartre. she was having trouble with the class. one day she saw sartre himself sitting in a cafe and went up and talked to him. everyday they would talk about his writing and ideas. He helped her do well in her class and she never told her teacher. haha! what a funny story. it's true though, i promise.

[Stanislaw]

6:40 and I am here instead of studying

[vango]

13:50 on this forum
i just got up and had my breakfast (also lunch), and then came back to open my computer. and you see what i am doing now

[Stanislaw]

8:23, chillin befor class

[mono]

11:33 pm, Thursday. Hello. No reason to type this; the reply is blank.

[Jay]

13:40, at home, waiting for someone to show online, listening to Dead Can Dance (recommended :p), just fixed the bandage on big toe, was getting soaked again. ol, no deatails.
JUST received a mail from a friend, sweet :).

[Stanislaw]

8:46, really tired, sitting at school, waiting for chem lecture to begin, Wouldnt it be neat if there was sleep in a bottle, I mean we have caffein drinks which force us to stay awake, but in the end that just makes us mor tired, wouldn't it be eisier to have sleep in a bottle, that way you could drink it and get a full nights rest(the affects of it) from just drinking a cup. TRhat way we wouldn't have to sleep, we would just drink sleep in a bottle!

[Taliesin]

:idea: Oh, there are plenty of substances that make you go to the dream-kingdom in a minute, i.e chloroform. Would you like to give a try, Stan?

[mono]

Chloroform will do the job, but a more natural and healthier remedy: melatonin.

[Stanislaw]

I mean some thing that allows you to stay awake but makes your body act like it has gotten its full nights rest

[Taliesin]

That actually could be possible, you know. Do you know dolphins (the fishlike things that aren't really fish)? Their brain-halves work on shifts (so i.e the right half is asleep and left one's awake and working) If that could be adapted to.....

Ah, Stan, please don't listen to me, Taliesin is a bit wierd because of german [studied 1 hour overyesterday, 4 hours yesterday and still didn't get it (the big test was today)]
*singing*: Der, die, das, den, die, das, dem, dem, der.... :banana: Eine Banana, de Villa, der Tisch, die Speisekarte, mein Gott....

Ah well, and one interesting fact too: most of the time I studied grammar, and a bit of vocabulary; the test was of course the other way round (mostly vocabulary; 25% grammar)

Another Klausur in estonian tomorrow. And one in history übertomorrow (the german really afflicts the brain as you see) :brow:

Ah yes, and the time is: 13:20

[Stanislaw]

12:42 and am thinking about dolphin thing maybe we can genetically splice the two species together...

[mono]

2:24 pm, on a break from studying chemistry. Reading, now and then, a sonnet or two from Petrarch and the mysterious poetry of Petronius.

[Jester]

6:10 hungry

[BSturdy]

I love whales and dolphins

"The brain size of dolphins is much larger than that of humans. Their cerebral cortexes are as convoluted. They are at least as social as humans. Anthropologists believe that the development of human intelligence has been critically dependent on these three factors; brain volume, brain convolutions and the social interactions amongst individuals. Here we find a class of animals where the three conditions leading to human intelligence may be greatly exceeded" - Carl Sagan, The Cosmic Connection

"Dolphin Societies are extraordinarily complex, and up to ten generations coexist at one time. If that were the case with man, Leonardo da Vinci, Faraday and Einstein would still be alive....Could not the Dolphins brain contain an amount of information comparable in volume to the thousands of tons of books in our libraries?" - Russian delphinologist, Yablakov

"Since the dolphin employs frequencies 4.5 times higher than the ones we use, its sound-producing apparatus can manages 4.5 times as much information per unit of time. The dolphin appers to have two seperate sets of sound-producing apparatus, one in each half of its blowhole. They can be used simultaneously. This means that the dolphin ought to be able to emit 9 times as much information as we can per unit of time. Now the fact is when used together, these two sets of sound-apparatus produce a stereophonic effect which ought logically to increase their informational capacity in relation to ours beyond a factor of 9. If we say that the dolphin can emit 10 times as much physical information via sound as we can, then that is probably an underestimate" - Karl-Erik Fichtelius and Sverre Sjolander, Man's place: Intelligence in Whales, Doplhins and Humans -

Not sure that a GM dolphin/man is a good idea! What could all that dolphin intelligence do for the purposes of evil?
:)

[Stanislaw]

Did you ever see the simpsons episode where the dolphins reclaim springfield as there home town, I think it was a halooween special.

12:51 and attempting o finish my lab paper

[Monica]

You also in love with the German language? ;) I have a horrible Hausaufgabe. Schreiben uber Ferien. I almost fell asleep during the lesson so I don't have notes and don't know how to write it. Anyway it's already after 3 pm and for tomorrow I have to read Bakhtin's Discourse in the Novel and do about a hundred other things and I don't really feel like it. I wish I had only one subject at University: British literature. That would be enough. Genug

[mono]

10:44 am: I have the day off! I intend on doing some writing, other than the usual studying; meanwhile, David Bowie's "Space Oddity" repeats in my head.

[Jester]

7:32 dreading the midterm in twelve and half hours.... and then another right after that. I'm taking a break from studying that's probably going to last a couple of hours :eek:

[Stanislaw]

9:03, waiting for english class to start, so we can continue our discussion of the tourists guide to glengarry
