hello everyone

1:56 pm

hurshy

back

1:56 pm

hurshy

second row grey

1:57 pm

mael

hey hurshy

1:57 pm

hurshy

hey

1:58 pm

hurshy

how are you

1:59 pm

mael

good, beautiful day here in MA

1:59 pm

mael

it's my husband's birthday so we had cake

1:59 pm

hurshy

oh nice

1:59 pm

hurshy

it's a good date

1:59 pm

mael

you?

1:59 pm

hurshy

anniversary for Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane

1:59 pm

hurshy

oh i'm a little icky feeling at the moment

2:00 pm

mael

oh I'm sorry! I hope you feel better right quick

2:00 pm

hurshy

it's um

2:00 pm

hurshy

psychological

2:02 pm

mael

well, I hope that also gets better quickly. I know the feeling.

2:02 pm

mael

it's rough, almost rougher

2:02 pm

hurshy

i just went for a walk and had three encounters with an animal that i'm phobic of so i just feel like they are everywhere and my skin is crawling

2:03 pm

mael

so! I've heard that a good way to distract your brain in those situations is to play a mindless game like tetris

2:03 pm

MollyL

What animal?

2:03 pm

hurshy

hard to know how long that creepy feeling will take to pass

2:03 pm

hurshy

well babble...?

2:04 pm

mael

more mindless :)

2:04 pm

hurshy

plus i resumed the F1 race that i had paused, when i got back

2:04 pm

hurshy

cars go round round round, that's fairly mindless

2:04 pm

hurshy

the animal that is a reptile without any appendages

2:05 pm

mael

it's about the trauma response (and phobia is a trauma response!) not encoding if your brain is busy with something mindless but requiring concentration, like tetris

2:05 pm

hurshy

well maybe i will find an online tetris to play

2:06 pm

mael

it's recommended after significant trauma too, which is where I heard about it

2:06 pm

hurshy

i heard movement is good for trauma because in ancient times your body was programmed to run from dangers and stuff, so that's what it wants to do to work off the energy from the trauma

2:07 pm

mael

that's also good, it lets the adrenalin burn off instead of lingering

2:07 pm

hurshy

but i was ON a walk so

2:07 pm

hurshy

it doesn't work out well in this instance

2:12 pm

MollyL

good God, where do you walk that you saw a snake three times?

2:12 pm

hurshy

road + bike path

2:13 pm

hurshy

just small harmless ones, nothing to actually fear, but i just hate being anywhere near them regardless

2:14 pm

mael

hey, phobias don't have to make any sense at all

2:14 pm

mael

do you need any hints in the meantime? :)

2:14 pm

mael

FW for me

2:14 pm

hurshy

hmm, maybe the corner E?

2:28 pm

mael

sorry, I got a call! it's es6/24 if you still need it

2:43 pm

hurshy

thanks, i went off to play tetris after a bit so yeah i still need it :D

2:43 pm

hurshy

got it, thanks

2:43 pm

hurshy

the tetris did feel helpful while i was playing

3:07 pm

hurshy

ok, flip chat says pr8, will now seek that

3:07 pm

hurshy

oh, idk why i didn't already have that

3:07 pm

hurshy

silly me

3:08 pm

cybernan

hello everyone :)

3:08 pm

hurshy

hello nan

3:10 pm

hurshy

3:12 pm

cybernan

missing one 7

3:16 pm

hurshy

the last for me was py7

3:17 pm

cybernan

have that one

3:17 pm

hurshy

sn7 may not have been called, i don't remember if it was or if i just already had it

3:18 pm

hurshy

i mean i did already have it, and that's why it's hard to recall if it was called or not when i looked

3:18 pm

cybernan

ea, ne pr, py, re, st x2, ye

3:18 pm

hurshy

then it is sn7 you need :)

3:19 pm

cybernan

ty looking

3:19 pm

hurshy

and i was perhaps right in thinking that it hadn't been called

3:19 pm

cybernan

had the root too!

3:21 pm

hurshy

the Supreme Court of Babble once again upholds the ruling that you should try it even if you can't see it as i get pr6

3:22 pm

hokie carla

I saw at least 4 bunnies and a cat if that helps

3:22 pm

hokie carla

no snakes but we did see a gator's nostrils sticking out of the water

3:22 pm

hurshy

cute cute bunnies and cat!

3:22 pm

hurshy

aaaaand that's why i would never want to move southwards

3:23 pm

cybernan

only animal I see is a kangaroo

3:23 pm

hurshy

no, not in the grid, nan. out on our walks.

3:23 pm

cybernan

oh -- couldn't figure out what I was missing

3:24 pm

hokie carla

so what'd I miss clue wise? 😁

3:24 pm

cybernan

only thing we see around here are the 4 legged pests that eat everything in sight

3:24 pm

hurshy

you think hokie knows four different species names for rabbits? lol

3:25 pm

cybernan

I've only got the top 18 inches of my pole beans left

3:25 pm

hurshy

for me that's like phoebe's list of types of celery... "regular celery! oh darn, i already had that."

3:26 pm

hokie carla

hmm, maybe angora. some kind of dwarf something. nah, I got nothing.

3:27 pm

hokie carla

ok, 5-4-10-3
W E YYYYY PPPPPP
N AA EE
SSS T

3:30 pm

hokie carla

hurshy, I used to be terrified of snakes but I posted a couple on snake ID reddit sub started following that. while I don't want to cuddle one, I would probably let it live now. I have learned so much about which venomous snakes are where.

3:42 pm

cybernan

top 2 rowss black

3:44 pm

hurshy

i mean, i'm lucky in that we don't have a lot of actually dangerous ones in new england, and i don't want to KILL them when i see them, i just want to stay far far away and i want them to stay far far away from me

3:45 pm

hurshy

i would be way MORE scared if i lived where there were more dangerous ones

3:45 pm

hurshy

another good reason for me to have an irish flag

3:47 pm

hurshy

now i have got to start cooking my supper

3:48 pm

hokie carla

I think at my house the only dangerous ones are copperheads and eastern diamondbacks. though we might have timber rattlers too.

3:48 pm

hurshy

that is 2-3 too many

3:48 pm

hurshy

ttfn

3:49 pm

hokie carla

but here in N FL they have all those plus cottonmouths and pygmy rattlers and probably more. plus the gators.

3:49 pm

hokie carla

3:58 pm
