Random Babbling 116 - Page 19

LKD · Tue, 12th Jun '12, 3:25pm

It looks like someone has a task they do not wish to perform!

T2Bruno · Tue, 12th Jun '12, 3:35pm

Now THAT was random babbling. Rags takes the crown for the day.

Splunge · Tue, 12th Jun '12, 3:54pm

Rags is a professional crastinator!

Dice · Wed, 13th Jun '12, 3:52am

I thought that people procrastinated by doing something FUN instead of what they really need to do. So I guess if Ragusa finds grammar exercises fun ... well hey, go for it

Huge thunderstorm starting after a very hot and humid day. Hopefully the power doesn't go out tonight.

Old One · Wed, 13th Jun '12, 7:24am

After midnight, bored out of my mind and out of coffee. Just as well, do I really need to be bored and jittery too? Anyway.... hi all!

Ofelix · Wed, 13th Jun '12, 3:52pm

hello Old One.

Day five of my anti depression medication. My appetite seemed to have stabilized itself, I'm not sure I like being hungry all the time though, meh. That's about it. Keep on babbling folks ! It's really windy today I like it my drapes seems to dance it's strangely fascinating, might be the medication though.

Dice · Wed, 13th Jun '12, 4:52pm

Nice to see you back Old One

Were you doing something fun while you were away?

What exactly does that mean Flix? Does that mean that you are hungry all the time because you do not have food, or that you are hungry all the time and eating too much?

Ofelix · Wed, 13th Jun '12, 5:01pm

@ Dice; I was used to eating once or twice a day, max and I had to actually force myself to eat to y'know stay alive. Now I'm actually hungry and pretty much have to eat three meals a day. I'm unaccustomed to that. I'm a creature of habits and react badly to significant changes in my life. It's kinda sad that I need pharmaceutical aid to well, be normal

-- I mean, feel the psychosis already !

Old One · Wed, 13th Jun '12, 5:14pm

@Ofelix
Hey, was on anti depression meds myself for a long time and no fun at first. Glad you seem to be over starting problems. Don't give up and not quite normal is fun sometimes.

@Dice
Not as much fun as being here! Nasty clash with Microsoft that lasted days but at least the rest was loading and playing BG II. Got involved with a Toshiba laptop that I resurected and was given after downloading pictures for a friend who owned it. Nasty virus and other things on it. Whiped the drive and loaded\loading it up for myself. :-D

Ofelix · Wed, 13th Jun '12, 7:05pm

Old one; I think you're the third person in the last week who told me they were on medication as well, somehow this makes me feel better. Much obliged

I've started the laundry, the dishwasher is on, I've spend my entire morning searching for jobs, took a nice walk, just finished a delicious grilled cheese sandwich, I even swept the floor with ye olde broom (I'm not kidding my parents have the same broom since before my birth, this thing is older than me). So nothing left to do but to spend the afternoon playing xbox weee

-- I have to say I do like the extra energy.

Vorona · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 6:19am

Yay, grammar!

The interview went well. The bad part is that I'm cell phone challenged, and did not hear about another interview that could have happened. They called on Monday, but I didn't get the message until Tuesday afternoon. They wanted an interview on Wednesday (today). So, I called back right away, but it's been phone and e-mail tag ever since. I got an e-mail from him this morning saying he was going to call this afternoon, but, alas, no call. No further e-mail either. Too bad: it was a Middle School English position, which is what I really want.

Old One · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 7:57am

Well.... here it is after midnight again but I am anything but bored. In setting up my free laptop I found a whole bucket load of my "lost" music! That and a new jar of coffee, a cat to listen with me makes it nice. (I talk he listens, I think.) Love lost cds.

@Ofelix ;-D Welcome!

Dice · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 8:16am

@ Flix - Do you use real cheese or those fake processed cheese slices in your grilled cheese sandwiches?

@ Vorona - Well there is still hope that they can set up another interview

@ Old One - Lost music is great. (So are free laptops.) Anything in particular that is catching your ear?

Old One · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 9:01am

@Dice
You bet. CCR, listened to two whole cds. Found a mix of my own with a lot of 60s & 70s stuff. Nothing standing out just an all around wide collection. Not a cd either, a dvd. Rolling Stones, Cars, Doors double set, hours of good music from the past. A bit too far back for most but I like those years. Found and listened to California Dreaming for the first time since I don't remember when. Darn, ya got me started Dice, hard to stop and my age is showing again!

reepnorp · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 2:46pm

4 hours until my flight out west! 11 hours from now I'll be near the lovely oil sands in Fort McMurray

Ragusa · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 3:15pm

Three hours until I'll participate in a charity run with my company team. I am thoroughly untrained. I intend tom delver a respectable performance anyway. We will see how well or bad that turns out.

When I commuted to work on the tram this morning, an absent minded wench managed to almost get herself run over when ignoring a traffic light. While she gawped at the tram, staggered, the driver unleashed upon her his righteous fury: "Stupid Cow! Watch where you walk! You want to get yourself killed?" Indeed!

Welcome to Wild Rose Country!

Dice · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 4:29pm

@ Old One - Sounds like you have a nice collection there

I listen to the oldies once in a while. The Doors are pretty cool and the Stones, your music list kind of reminds me of my brothers who live close by.

Lol LKD, yah I was going to say something along those lines. Welcome to Alberta Reep - I think more people should come here

.

Taluntain · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 4:45pm

Just found out that they'll be re-releasing TNG on blu-ray after remastering the whole series from original footage. Still 4:3, but the difference in quality is huge:

Master of Nuhn · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 5:25pm

I can't remember that happening in The Naked Gun (TNG)...

Old One · Thu, 14th Jun '12, 9:27pm

Taluntain, wow. I loved that show.

@Dice
Hi lady, not a big collection just all over the place! I have teen grandkids who know the words to 50s, 60s, and 70s stuff from swipping music from me for ipods. It's funny when someone born in this century reconizes a 1969 Iron Butterfly concert when it plays.

Hi all.

reepnorp · Fri, 15th Jun '12, 4:59am

Turns out I was wrong earlier. Thanks to a lovely two hour delay on my first flight, I missed my second flight and they rebooked me for one that leaves quite a bit later. Instead of catching a 4 PM flight out of Calgary, I only got here at 5:30 and get to wait until 12:30 before my new flight departs. Oh the joys of travel...

Dice · Fri, 15th Jun '12, 5:09am

Well at least you have internet Reep

.

Vorona · Fri, 15th Jun '12, 7:14am

Ooh, the flight sounds awful. I hope you get to your final destination without any further problems.

I just received an interview request with several exclamation points. Unfortunately, I don't really want the job, but I do want the practice with interviews. It looks like my application is great, though, so that's a good thing!

Old One · Fri, 15th Jun '12, 8:10am

Never feed a cat an egg in any form. 30 min later....disaster!
