6:25 am

SamanthaJoy

Eeeeewwwwwww! And yes, thank you!

6:25 am

SamanthaJoy

Horrid word. Horrid THING.

6:25 am

dan2bit

no wonder you couldn't see it :-)

6:26 am

SamanthaJoy

Heh. Selective blindness is a defense mechanism.

6:27 am

MollyL

Well, I don't like it. But I wouldn't resort to "horrid"

6:28 am

SamanthaJoy

"resort"?

6:28 am

MollyL

It's 15 degrees here and I am so tired of winter

6:29 am

dan2bit

okay now I'm thinking of sandy beaches and snorkeling

6:29 am

MollyL

resort...the action of turning to...

6:30 am

SamanthaJoy

I live in Texas. I went and sat in the sunshine outdoors yesterday in a tshirt. The weather is glorious.

6:30 am

dan2bit

resort... a place where you can get drink service on a beach

6:30 am

MollyL

2Bit has been reading too many Sandals brochures

6:31 am

dan2bit

we're a balmy 19F

6:31 am

SamanthaJoy

Yes, I know what the word means, Molly. I can't see why you think the word was appropriate. I used an adjective. I did not "resort" to anything.

6:31 am

MollyL

Well it was 60 here on Thursday. The weather has been up and down like a yo-yo

6:33 am

MollyL

Apologies for my choice of verb. Will now tread very softly here.

hokie carla

lol, have you seen Hot Fuzz? name calling through crosswords.

7:18 am

MollyL

Carla you are the Queen of Word Games

7:19 am

hokie carla

it's a movie

7:19 am

aslindy

I have not seen Hot Fuzz

7:20 am

MollyL

Oh, I thought it was a crossword game where your words had to be name calling. Could be fun.

7:20 am

hokie carla

here's a scene https://tinyurl.com/mub2tazz

7:20 am

MollyL

Kind of like Lewdle

7:31 am

rururocks

most players here don't have a thick enough skin to play that game

7:37 am

hokie carla

woot! found an 8

7:41 am

MollyL

No kidding Ru. The skin can be very thin in here.

7:42 am

rururocks

I sure haven't found any 8's yet hokes

7:45 am

hokie carla

well, you know if I found it it's a regular word

7:45 am

BzznBea

Then it must not be the one I have.

7:46 am

hokie carla

you could say it's what some old people (incl me) do right now

7:48 am

rururocks

old people "do" lots of things

7:49 am

hokie carla

well, I didn't want to just give it away unless you want me to

7:49 am

hokie carla

I'm in FL right now... it's cold back in NC...

7:50 am

hokie carla

some people call those snowbirds because birds do something when it's cold

7:50 am

BzznBea

NO, that wasn't the one I had.

7:50 am

MollyL

Birds do it more than old people

7:51 am

hokie carla

I told you it was regular

7:51 am

hokie carla

yes, but like I said, I didn't want to just give it away at first

7:51 am

BzznBea

I've heard that it is cold in FL this year.

7:51 am

hokie carla

and that is a dead giveaway

7:51 am

hokie carla

we have our furnace on right now

7:51 am

BzznBea

Speaking of birds, the goldfinches are back as are the bluebirds.

7:52 am

hokie carla

7:52 am

hokie carla
