1maggie1944I am sorry to announce I will be otherwise occupied this Friday at our usual Chat Room Party time. I hope someone else will step up and announce that Rosie will be setting them up! 2maggie1944Error! I will be in chat this afternoon (evening). It is next Friday (13th) when I will not be around. Too much living in the future. I need to stop that! 5bluesalamandersGeorgia - I stayed in for an hour or so (while watching Numb3rs and playing games). I'm still around if you are, though :) 6maggie1944Hello everyone, I previously announced I would not be here tonight, but I've changed my mind. I'll be here briefly. My house party does not start until 7 pm my time so I have a bit of time to chat. Living room is all clean! Dining room sparkles. I've decided to not make a quiche, just going to do crackers and cheese with some ham slices, too. Tea, and lemon water. I am just not the hostess with the mostess! Join me for chatting in about 20 minutes. 9maggie1944I will try to get into the chat room sometime this evening. I may have a friend stopping by, but I don't know just when. Hope I'll be able to be there at 8 pm, Green Dragon time. 10GeorgiaDawnI'm my brother and SIL pack up some things to sell. I'm not sure if I'll be here or not, but I will try. I enjoy talking to everyone! 12maggie1944I'm sorry, my friend did stop by and we had a good long chat in RL, and she bought some Norwex product, so I am a happy camper! Maybe next week.... 13maggie1944OK, it is Feb. now. Let's see what we can do for chatting this evening. I'll be there in a little bit over an hour from now. Be there, or be square.... 16GeorgiaDawnI missed your message, Maggs! I was grading math tests (after putting it off all weekend). 17maggie1944no, worries, GD. I wasn't sure if any one might be around but since I knew I would be sitting here to see Madonna I figured I could have some popcorn with Rosie. I remember that wonderful Sunday night activity: doing the paperwork procrastinated to the last.... 18streamsongI popped in about 7 mountain time, but you had already gone. :-( I'm not a big Super Bowl fan, but had watched the first half with my DD in the nursing home, and eaten take out pizza with DD & DM while watching the half time show. Missed the controversial moment during half time--guess I wasn't watching that closely. I hope I'll catch you in chat soon. 19maggie1944Yes, it is hard to time this chat room party time just right! We will catch each other there at the same time, some time, soon! 20olive_spreadI'll be in, but I'm going to the movies tonight, so I'll be a touch late. I'll see whoever is a night owl. well, 10 pm is nightowl for me. :) 22bluesalamandersMe, too! (If I don't get distracted and miss it, which, ah, has been known to happen.) 23maggie1944I'll probably be there for a bit right at 8 pm, GD time, 5 pm my time (pacific) and then leave because around 6 people are coming over to switch washer and dryer. I'm bringing mine from my previous home here, and giving these away. Mine are wonderful front loading, low suds versions and they do cleaning so well! So, see you early birds! 30maggie1944OK... Academy Awards night! I am probably going to watch some of it, or maybe even all of it. Do you want to chat while watching? Maybe I'll open up the chat room in an hour or so about when the red carpet thing starts... join me if you'd like... If you want to chat at a different time, you can post here when you plan on going into chat... 31maggie1944OK, I see the red carpet has started on CBS, so I'll go into the chat room. I am also cooking some dinner, so if I don't answer right away, don't worry, I'll be back.... 35maggie1944no worries, guys, it was just a last minute thought. I enjoyed the AA show any way, but it could have been more fun if we'd been dissing together.... (is that how you spell it? Disrespecting?) 46maggie1944Friday, March 16... St Patrick's Day Eve. Seems like a good excuse for a party! Lots of beer, maybe even colored green, or orange, if you would prefer. I'll be there around 8 pm Green Dragon time, 5 pm my time, and goodness knows what time it is in France! Middle of the night, I think. And early morning in China. In any case....time for a chat? 49littlegeekI actually went in there, but I see you all left. I miss you guys, should start hanging out in the Dragon again. 51olive_spreadFile under weird: Someone talked about the book JackDawes by Ken Follett last night. I was really going to try it. I haven't read Follett in 4evr. I had this attack to clean and purge a room inthe house and what do I find? Can you believe it? 52maggie1944That is a great coincidence! goes to prove you need to chat every week! As well as clean and purge once in a while (not too often, of course). 54olive_spreadThe cocktail hour has started by me and I'm not sure I'll find my way into the right pub...might end up in the left one. ;P Have a good time tonight if I miss ya'll 55maggie1944okey, dokey, I'll be going into the chat room at about 8 pm. Its 5 pm my time and I get to relax with the TV news. Such good news these days! Maybe you'll join me in chat and hold hands with me. 57maggie1944Ok, just hours before the mega million jackpot drawing in the US of A, I am going to the chat room and see if I can announce to the GD that I won! Join me? 61TaneI'm in the chat room now... I'll be there for the next hour or so, checking back periodically... if you're interested? If I don't answer straight away it's because I'm editing photo's (honestly, it's not the only thing I do in live - it's just the only thing I seem to talk about ;-) 68olive_spreadSorry I missed everyone. I stepped in at 11:20 my time...whoa, was I out late. REading a good book that led me to write a bit...Secrets as aphrodisiacs. ;P 73maggie1944I think I'll be able to attend Chat this afternoon/evening; 8 pm Green Dragon (USA east coast) time. 75olive_spreadI'll be out tonight too. Miss you!!! hugs I hope to chat away with you next week. Have a drink on me...and don't fall off your seat. lol 77maggie1944Pssssst.... its friday bumping this up just to jiggle memories of nice chats see you later, maybe... 83maggie1944I stopped by for a minute... I'm doing the Read-A-Thon and wanted to get started on my book. I really want to finish one book and make some big progress in another, so no chatty Cathy for me tonight. Sorry I missed you Sarge. Hope all have a great weekend. 85maggie1944Any one around for a little chatty chatty bang bang? I'll go open the room and hang around with Rosie for awhile. Come see if we are still wiping the bar down, and mixing the PGGBs. 90maggie1944I just noticed on FB that today is Towel Day, and that we should all be looking for some PGGBs in Chat this evening. Check it out.... I'll try to be there around 8 pm, Green dragon clock 94GeorgiaDawnI have missed you guys over the last two weeks! I was out of town last Friday and had my brother's 50th birthday party last night. Look forward to seeing you guys soon! 96bluesalamandersI was off the computer yesterday evening because my head was bothering me. I hope you had fun at the party, Georgia, and that sounds like a good game, maggie :) 101maggie1944I am sorry, I'm off to a basketball game tonight. Hope you guys have fun.... although, without me... how could you? See you next week.... 106maggie1944Oh, yeah! It is Friday night.... Anyone planning on a chat-o-rama? I think I'll hang out for a while. Around 8 o'clock Green Dragon time. 110GeorgiaDawnJewels! I'm so sorry I missed you! I'll be around tonight if anyone wants to stop by and chat. 122olive_spreadStumbled by at 10 but you all looked so nice sleeping, I didn't want to wake you. ;P Shhh 123maggie1944ok, I've completely turned off the TV so the only entertainment I have is....... you guessed it! Chatting with Green Dragoneers! See you in a little while! 126olive_spreadwell, it is an hour and a hlf later...so the party fizzled out, huh? Guess that's what happens when I show up late or are you all just hiding and waiting to yell surprise? 127maggie1944Whooops. Yes, I usually start as near to 8 pm as I can, and I seldom can stay much longer than about an hour +some. Sorry to miss you. 128maggie1944I am going to the Chat room to see what Rosie and Dobby might have on this summer's eve (or winter's night, if you are S. Hemispheric). 130maggie1944I'm going in to see what Rosie has set up on the bar... cheese, grapes, and crackers by my side need a good drink? 133maggie1944It is Friday! And I've had one whole day "off". Painted my front porch floor and steps (small porch), purchased new hardware for my garden gate, drove car into garage AGAIN! Woo hop What did you do today? This week? Any plans for the weekend you want to share? Chat room will be open in just a little bit 140drneutronPlanned to drop by, but wound up going to the Naval Academy to watch the middies almost lose Slippery Rock University in hockey. Maybe next week! 142maggie1944Friday! Unfortunately, I'm off to watch The Seattle Storm play their last regular season game. Next week the playoffs! Go Storm! I hope you chatters have a great time tonight. 151olive_spreadI'll probably be missing you all again! I'm going out to early movie...not back until after 9 and that seems when the rest of you are showering for the night out on the town! ;P 152bluesalamandersI'm going out tonight, so I won't be there either. I'll probably be in next week, though! 155olive_spreadWait until winter when many of us are trapped in our lives with only the glow of our laptop light window to escape through, then we'll come together. 160olive_spreadI'm going to sleep early tonight. Just wanted to say hi to all my Friday night buddies. ;P 168maggie1944OK, I will be in the chat room in about 45 minutes +/-. Care to join in for a little TGIF? 174maggie1944Friday, November 23, at 4:45 my time, and that would be 7:45 Green Dragon's time, I am thinking I'd like to go chatting. I'll be in the room in about 15 minutes. How about you? 175olive_spreadSorry I missed you. I was just in, Rosie had a chariot ride and then she and Dobby stoked the fire for me. Had the whole room to myself and the roomba. 176maggie1944It was quiet earlier, as well. I imagine the long weekend has many with much to do. Perhaps there will be more folks stopping in next week. 178GeorgiaDawnI'm sorry I missed chat. My boys are here, and I'm spending as much time with them as I can. I'll be back next week! 185GeorgiaDawnI never connected to the chat room. I'm not sure what happened. I'll try again next week. 187PolymathicMonkeyChat is apparently a middle-of-the-night thing, so I doubt I will ever be on it, heh. 188maggie1944Polymath - on Fridays I aim to check in at about 8 pm Green Dragon time (eastern USA); it is about 5 pm on the west coast so it seemed this was a time when at least the USA Librarythingers might be interested in chatting. We have had some European/UK participants from time to to time, and for them, yes it is the middle of the night. I think the Chinese located people are in the early morning So it seems that it is difficult to find a convenient time for every part of the world. Do not hesitate to go in to the Chat room, and announce that you are doing it, whenever it is convenient for you. Perhaps you'll find some others who'd like to chat at that time, too. 189PolymathicMonkeyOh I understand, I know the bulk of LTers are in the US. Please don't think my comment was an angry one or anything like that! More just a, well that's a crummy circumstance! kinda deal, ya know. 'Cause yeah, 8pm EST is 2am in my part of the world, so that just won't happen, haha. 190maggie1944Really, there are lots of folks in circumstances similar to yours. I am always amazed at how many non-USA folks are active here. Give it some effort by declaring another time. Lets say 6 pm where you live, figure out what that is for other parts of the world and see if it would work. Then declare yourself chatty, and try it for a couple few weeks in a row. You may start something good! 191PolymathicMonkeydeclare yourself chatty hahaha, awesome. Honestly I tend to be on the computer most days for the better part of the day, lol. That's part of why it's such a, well shucks!! thing, 'cause I'm nearly always around, hahaha, except for the one time chosen. :P Well, 6pm I'm generally in the kitchen cooking dinner, lol. But I'm typically around from 9.30ish-17ish, and 20/21-23ish (depends when exactly dinner was started and such). So, up until 11am EST, and again 2/3-5ish pm EST (and on Fri/Sat usually till 6pm EST) If anyone is ever around then, lemme know! lol. 192maggie1944I think I'll be able to be in the chat room this evening.... in about 1 hr. 20 min. from now. Join me? 195olive_spreadgoing out for dinner...I'll be late if anyone hangs around and I can stumble my way back to the computer rather then sleeping in the tub///again. hic....oops sorry 196maggie1944Hi! Well, I'm not good for late nights, sorry. I'll go in about 5 pm my time, 8 pm Green Dragon time. Chatter will occur, if one or more joins me. 197olive_spreadHi, this is for OldSarge and Streamsong...sorry I took off, I couldn't back as fast as I thought. It was talking with you both...have a nice holiday. 198maggie1944I will stop by chat for a few minutes, and then start my end of the year read-a-thon! So much left to read! So little time. | AboutThis topic is not marked as primarily about any work, author or other topic. TouchstonesNo touchstones |
