A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffee House 2191 We Are Ready For Some Sun

i found it

and the answer is "not i said the fly" i don't like beer

and, honestly, i try to avoid savannah during st. pat's

spring break, maybe?????

Jiff, you've been under the weather for a while. I haven't been on here much lately, but that much I do know.

Is Ms. Merme still resting?

sheri, we are on 10 week "quarters" with breaks in between. so, yesterday was the end of the quarter and today was the day that the students who were not staying for spring quarter had to leave. if they are enrolled in winter and spring both, they can stay, because the break is only 10 days long. otherwise, they have to leave and we "close" the dorms.

they don't actually close this time, but i have to process them as if they do. check out paperwork, damage billing, etc.

does savannah have a large population of irsh? why is it so popular there?

cricket thank you for noticing. today, the worst is because the high today was the low for wed. night. and rain is coming in. i just don't do well heath wise with weather changes. rheumatoid arthritis does that

at what school do your work. I can't remember. I dont have RA but when the weather changes I feel like 1000 pounds is sitting on my head pushing out through my sinuses.

they do cricket. we even have a real cathedral. because of all the irish catholics here. we have as many as boston or new york based on city size

sheri, i work at the savannah college of art and design aka scad. scad dot edu if you are interested. they have a picture of the building i work in on the website. it's called oglethorpe house.

I remember at my old job one day I was on the phone with someone in Indianapolis. we were trying to work through some issue. all of a sudden she says, 'oh my, it's 3 o'clock already! I gotta go!' our issue was only half way worked through so I was very confused. she briefly and frantically explained it was racing weekend and she had to leave work RIGHT THEN or she'd never get out! ha ha. I suddenly understood that our issue could wait till monday morning. I find it so interesting the different events and cultures that occur from place to place.

yes. i can understand that!

when i lived in california (silicon valley) every single plant had different hours to lessen the rush hour. which meant that instead of traffic jams from 7-9 and 4-6, we had them all day

several years ago when Rita came through. I was at work and on the phone with someone in Detroit. someone walked by and handed me a couple of large trash bags and said 'once you wrap your computer, and any important files, you can go home'. ha ha. I'm sure that person at the other end of the line was just as perplexed at my 'I gotta go', as I was with the indianapolis 500 lady.

I've been through that area and the freeways are jammed tighter than a can of sardines!

have you been fishing lately, enrique?
earlier in the week I was bugging the fam about doing fishing this weekend. now it is very cold and rainy.

good description enrique. i hope things are going well for you. it's good to see you on more.

Jiffy--are you still here?? I was reading back and saw that you have not had so good a day--I am sorry to hear that--I hope the weather straightens up soon for you--so yo uwill feel better ASAP./

Nity- Nite everyone----
Sweet Dreams

night-night, ms. carol jean!

I'm still around but I don't know for how long.

I rested, but not enough. And now that I've read up on all you guys, I'm too tired to really post.

Your Fencer suits you, Cricket.

I like the name Mr. Bill picked for me 'coz he recognizes what a psuedo-snob I am!


Alright, alright, I know I can be a priss.


Don't mean any harm by it, though.


Safe away home, O my palies, and sweet dreams to you all.




Merme

me too for just a bit...

I don't, merm. I always thought of your nickname as recognizing your culture and swav-a-fare. (did I spell 'swav-a-fare' like a goffy redneck?.....actually it's flare and not fare, right?) I don't know. I'm too tired.

I'm gonna safe away myself on outta here.
later guys!

That is a great word for Merme, savoir faire.
(The ability to do or say what is appropriate for the occasion.)
Good night Cricket. I think I'm going to bed also.

Cricket you really amuse me. I'm glad you were able to safe away yourself on outta here.

And thanks, Tina, for the spelling lesson! Sleepyheaded Cricket was quite bold in her masterful attempts but I think she got lost somewhere between A and W! It doesn't do one any good to try a spelling road trip when weary!

I went to bed and slept very restlessly for about an hour and woke up achey. So I took some Tylenol and made some Red rose Tea and hopefully will do better when I go back to bed later.

I put a poem up in the Home For The Holidays section.

Merme

I haven't got my fishing license yet.I keep telling my dad to buy me one, but he won't.He always says that he has "no money" even when he has money and all the bills have been paid.I guess I'll tell my mom to buy me one.

Good morning, everybody!

Rise and shine you sleepyheads!

I got the coffee on!



Merme

Oopsie! *giggles Merme*




d'ya want some coffee, Afgrey?

Merme *whispers*

If you had changed my name, Afgrey, I would NOT have noticed for centuries!


Phew! I'm glad you didn't do it!


Did the coffee I cyber-trotted over to you wake you up any?



Merme

I had to look it up, Merme. I got close but added an extra 'e' on the tail of savoir.
Good morning. It is Saturday and I got to sleep in. John has company coming over today to help him with a couple of projects. The kids and I are going out to run some errands and do a little car shopping. But no time tables to go by. That is good.

Let us not shorten my weekend.

My kids are very late for school. But it works for me!

Heck with stopping at rolling the clock back just a day! Let's take it back to 1/1/09... I don't know where this year has fled!


Merme

I am on my way out the door. Going to bank, and shop and feed a foster dog. Then go car shopping with Jonni. Wish us luck.

I guess older women -- or should I say "mature ladies"? -- do need to be aware of the passing of the years.


Merme *the spring chicken with ocean front property in Arizona*

When I grow up I want to be an old woman in a garden doing whatever the heck I want!

Gimme a hat and a garden and I'm good to go!

I like your immaturity, you old woman you!


Merme

Yes it does. He said that to me many many times.

I'm glad I could amuse everyone last night with my brutal atempt to spell a foreign word while half asleep!
I was cracking myself up too.
were having a lazy day around here. it's still cold and rainy. I went out for about half an hour and poked around the garden, then came right back in. there is just nothing fun to do indoors. (well at least not while the kids are around)

I stayed up for several hours last night doing homework.I fell asleep for a few hours but I'm not tired. I will finish my homework today which means I'll have nothing to do tomorrow.

I laid down on the couch for a while to read. I fell asleep! My coffee got cold while I was sleeping. Must be time to make fresh.


Merme

I received my grades in the mail today.I had two Fs before , now I only have one F. I also got two As, a B and two Cs.

Good for you, Enrique! You've improved your report card. Good job!
