~.~ I went to have dinner...
I really..Dislike having dinner these days :3
Annoyed. Angry. The usual.
What class are you having?

Dream_and_Die 02-09-2009 04:28 PM

I have a Cultural Anthropology in like six hours.
Why do you hate eating dinner?

MimiYoshi 02-09-2009 04:34 PM

Cause I just really can't take the loads of food x.x;;
Sounds interesting though. What is it about?

Dream_and_Die 02-09-2009 04:43 PM

Its the study of people basically. We are going to focus on things that all cultures have in common but differ from region to region. Like language, food, status for men women and children. Stuff like that.

MimiYoshi 02-09-2009 04:51 PM

O: Cool!
You could study me! :'D xDD

Elmira Swift 02-09-2009 10:01 PM

Hello everyone! I hope you're enjoying your day.

@Mimi - Anthropology is more of the study of groups of people than of individuals - but if there are more people like you, I bet you'd be interesting to study!

GrannyJ 02-10-2009 12:00 AM

Good evening everybody!

I hope you all are doing well today!

I was late getting online - today was my shopping day.

It's time for a nice cup of tea. What flavor do we have brewing today?

YuenGuon 02-10-2009 02:01 AM

Hi Granny! There doesn't seem to be a lot of people in today. Mondays are always busy.

I also went shopping today!

lavndrdream 02-10-2009 03:05 AM


*huggles everyone again*

Hello, how has everyone been today? I just got home from workies and since my fiance is working close, it's left overs, so I'll get around to eating when I feel like it!


GrannyJ 02-10-2009 03:28 AM

I was gone for awhile, getting supper ready, and cleaning up.

It does look like there are very few people about today, except for us.

Dream_and_Die 02-10-2009 03:13 PM

My professor held us a hour longer then we were supposed to be there last night. You just can't do that when the class is supposed to end at 9.

@Mimi: Well like with all other college courses, we study what our professor studied. So we are focusing on the Trobriand Islands of Papua New Guinea. Not what I really want to focus on, but what can you do? :shrug:

Elmira Swift 02-10-2009 04:19 PM

Granny, I must say that I am so happy to find another older lady on the site! I'm a late bloomer as far as my kids go - I'm 43 and have an (almost) 11yo and a 3mo. Live in GA, but grew up in CA. I love the pace here and don't plan on returning to CA. Thank you for starting up this thread!

YuenGuon 02-10-2009 05:07 PM

Hi swift! how are you? I like your outfit =]

How is everyone?
I'm actually about to go to class.
Just wanted to pop in for a second.

GrannyJ 02-10-2009 06:09 PM

Hello Dream, Elmira, and Yuen dears!

So happy to meet you Elmira. You're very welcome to stay around and chat with us. The young people here are so nice and very friendly.

I believe we have some cookies around here somewhere. Ah, here they are. Oatmeal raisin!
`passes cookies around`

Edit: Oh my, it appears that nobody is around this afternoon. Well, I must go do some chores. I hope to come back this evening and see if anybody is around then.

YuenGuon 02-10-2009 08:38 PM

COOKIES!
::stuffs face::
I won't be on here that much today, I have a presentation tomorrow, but I'll stop in here and there.

=]

Dream_and_Die 02-10-2009 09:42 PM

I'm here now!
I'm doing some readings for class but I'll probably pop in whenever I need to stop staring at the pages.

Elmira Swift 02-11-2009 02:55 AM

I'm popping in and out tonight. Really busy with the kids today...

@ Granny - thank you for the welcome and cookies!

@ Yuen - thank you! I love your outfit as well!

YuenGuon 02-11-2009 03:01 AM

Thanks! How many kids do you have?

Elmira Swift 02-11-2009 08:52 PM

@ Yuen - Two - one turned 11 today (wahoo!) and the other is 3mo.

@ Dream - Hang in there. I'm sorry to hear your professor pulled that on you. That was one reason why I hated night classes.

GrannyJ 02-11-2009 10:31 PM

Hello dears! I'm finally back. I've been out shopping all day, and only managed to purchase one thing - a purse.

It was rather humerous. I spent over an hour trying to decide if I should buy it or not, since it was on sale. Normally $48 on sale for $26, so I thought it was a reallly good deal. Finally I decided to get it. When I checked out at the register, it turned out to be only $11! I didn't need to agonize all that much after all. (I should have gone back and gotten the other purse I was looking at as well).

Of course, the husband doesn't understand why I needed a new purse at all.

Edited:
My goodness - where is everybody? There doesn't seem to be anybody around right now. I guess I'll try back later this evening.

Elmira Swift 02-11-2009 11:47 PM

Granny, most men can fathom the need for more than a couple pairs of shoes let alone a handbag! It sounds like you made out like a bandit!

Dream_and_Die 02-12-2009 01:21 AM

Hey everyone!
I was at the eye doctors to get a check up.
I bought brand new frames, my optometrist is a family friend and she always w=makes jokes about my old frames, she said the were to "old fashioned" looking for someone my age.
My new ones are more contemporary but still have a classy look to them.

Bad news, my eye sight has gotten worse and I found out without my glasses I'm legally blind.
I used to joke about it but now it really true. Sad.

YuenGuon 02-12-2009 02:31 AM

@swift:ahh congrats!!

@granny: a $11 purse? awesome! I love finding great deals =]

@dream: i have no idea what number my eyes are. or what it is.
i'm just unable to survive w/o glasses.

GrannyJ 02-12-2009 06:26 AM

Well, it is quite late right now. I'm having trouble sleeping, so I decided to see if anybody was around.

I see that earlier, Elmira, Dream, and Yuen were on. I suspect that everybody is sleeping right now.

Sleep tight dears - I hope that after I play a little of that "Snake", I'll tire myself out enough to sleep myself!

Elmira Swift 02-12-2009 11:51 AM

Early night for me last night with the kids. I have a class this morning and hope things will settle down a while this afternoon. Not sure how often or when I'll be on, but I'll pop in! Hope you all have a wonderful day.
