hurshy

i still think of the flip as a rollicking, hopping time for the chat... but those days are long gone

12:10 am

hurshy

*violins*

12:10 am

cybernan

Hi Hurshy - wasn't chatting because I don't plant to stay long -- head cold I don't seem to be able to shake.

12:10 am

jeanne314

I know! Sadly, everyone's become a lurker...

12:10 am

hurshy

my sister is having the same problem nan

12:10 am

Soodle

It’s almost 6.10 am here; Hursh. Forgive me for being neither rollicking or hopping.

12:11 am

hurshy

no individual has to be rollicking or hopping, it's the collective, it's more than the sum of its parts

12:12 am

hurshy

phantom: nephew

12:12 am

hurshy

phantom: sphere

12:13 am

Soodle

I know that. And, indeed I also miss the good humor & chat of the flip in the old days.

12:13 am

Soodle

I know that. And, indeed I also miss the good humor & chat of the flip in the old days.

12:13 am

Soodle

Oops. Pardon me

12:15 am

justafreep

I will come by sometimes and rollick in the new year.

12:15 am

cybernan

nbt, nbs and I'm off to try and get some sleep. Have a good night (day) everyone :)

12:15 am

hurshy

now that's a good resolution if i ever heard one, freep

12:15 am

justafreep

I might hop, but it will not be on video!

12:16 am

justafreep

Resolved: rollick.

12:16 am

hurshy

fair enough re: video

12:17 am

licketySplitAUS

Clues are up

12:17 am

justafreep

thanks, lickety

12:18 am

hurshy

phantom: sheep

12:19 am

hurshy

phantom: ferret

12:21 am

justafreep

phantom critters abound

12:22 am

hurshy

yesterday i took a message at work from a guy... when he told me his name, i said is that with a W or is it "S-e-a-n" and he said it's "S-h-a-u-n" actually, and so naturally i said...

12:24 am

justafreep

I only rollick, hurshy. I don't get involved beyond that. (Errr... what did you say?)

12:25 am

hurshy

i was figuring someone would be able to guess and would fill in the blank

12:25 am

justafreep

Yeah. I am not that someone. I feel like I should be able to answer, but... nope.

12:26 am

hurshy

hint: it was my 12:18 phantom that reminded me of this message-taking event

12:27 am

justafreep

I had kinda guessed that, but all I know is that title. not anything else.

12:27 am

hurshy

well i just said, "oh! like the SHEEP!"

12:27 am

hurshy

and he laughed

12:27 am

hurshy

you might say he laughed...

12:27 am

hurshy

sheepishly

12:27 am

justafreep

ha

12:34 am

dizgrannie

zepher is a phantom

12:34 am

morning babblers

12:44 am

justafreep

hi, sprite.

12:44 am

sprite

hi freep

12:45 am

justafreep

what's new?

12:46 am

sprite

my beloved is sleeping his first night with the CPAP machine. He is breathing so quietly and evenly and I think he is having the first really restful night in ages.

12:46 am

justafreep

oh. that's good! that's the goal

12:47 am

sprite

very very grateful

12:48 am

sprite

and you?

12:49 am

justafreep

nothing like that. but I did buy a way too large chocolate cake for a party recently so had to eat leftovers for DAYS. It was hard, but I muddled through :-)

12:50 am

dizgrannie

feexe

12:50 am

sprite

*giggles* you are so brave!

12:50 am

justafreep

I am. One day I even had the leftovers without coffee!!!!

12:51 am

sprite

omg. That is heroic!

12:52 am

justafreep

The hope is that I will remember this next time. That when this place says "this cake will feed 20-25 people" what they mean is that it will feed them dinner if they've had no other food for a week. Lesson learned, I hope.

12:52 am

sprite

lololol

1:00 am

justafreep

I am afraid it's bedtime for me. The lack of cake today has messed me up completely, obviously.....

1:00 am

sprite

clearly. Only sleep may help. Sweet dreams!

1:01 am

justafreep

Frosting dreams again, I suspect! Very sweet. And to you, too!

1:19 am

sprite

fireflies and poofing

2:38 am

granadan
