[17:52] <Shiral> Ditto
[17:52] <the_Bee> how was your trip? and your con?
[17:52] <Martine> Hi Katherine!
[17:52] <RainbowDragon> ...even though its not under the happiest of
circumstances
[17:52] <KK> A little later than usual, but here.
[17:52] <KK> Trip was fine. Con was also fine.
[17:52] <Shiral> It's a Wake for Kim today
[17:53] <KK> Well do I know.
[17:54] <Mistyck> I think we're all still in a bit of shock at the
suddenness
[17:54] <kirienne> yes, I somehow thought she was doing so well
[17:54] <the_Bee> I was hoping she'd beat the illness
[17:55] <Wrengl> hi katherine
[17:55] <Dov> yep we were all rooting for her
[17:55] * Wrengl Passes out glasses of the White Kosher Italian Muscat

[17:55] <Mistyck> Katherine: we were all thinking about having a
memorial service for her at Darkover
[17:55] <Martine> Those of us who were with her just two days prior had
no clue.
[17:55] <Annie> she was so positive, seemed to me she had to be doing
well
[17:55] <Martine> Neither did she, for that matter.
[17:55] <Martine> She just... crashed.
[17:56] <KK> A memorial is already planned, along with a blessing of
the marriage of Nancy and John.
[17:56] <Mistyck> good
[17:56] <Shiral> Thank goodness she made it to her wedding..
[17:56] <the_Bee> she always acted optimistic
[17:56] <Martine> Amen, Shiral
[17:56] <Mistyck> yes
[17:56] * Wrengl hands katherine a plate with pieces of the special
fruitcake she made for the wedding, described as a shot in a slice
[17:56] <kirienne> I am so glad she had a few days of happiness with
her Cole
[17:56] <Shiral> Yes, she spoke so confidently of "getting off the
oxygen"
[17:56] <KK> I watched the video. It was a beautiful ceremony.
[17:56] <Mistyck> we'll have to make sure we have chippers there
[17:57] <Annie> I've just watched it
[17:57] <Shiral> I fooled myself into believing she'd beat the odds
until Wednesday
[17:57] * Bynw was glad that Jasta and Sendia picked him to do the
reading
[17:57] <RainbowDragon> I thought it was neat that Jasta officiated at
it
[17:57] <Martine> I'm so glad you were able to see it on dial-up,
Katherine
[17:57] <kirienne> I'll watch when I'm done with chat. My computer
sometimes acts up if I look at websites while in chat
[17:57] <Wrengl> she was determined not to miss her wedding
[17:58] <Wrengl> it was the most important thing to her, to consumate
the love she and Cole shared
[17:58] <Shiral> It gave her a happy thing to focus on.
[17:58] <KK> Jasta's homily was so spot-on. And she said it was clear
from Kim's vows that she expected she'd have more time than turned out
to be the case.
[17:58] <Martine> She was also determined to enjoy married life after
cancer. Sigh.

[17:58] <kirienne> hi joram
[17:58] <Tika> it was clear from our chat on Tuesday that she still
expected that :(
[17:58] <Martine> Yeah. Kim's vows talked about her not waiting to
start a real life together with Cole.
[17:58] <Joram> hey all
[17:58] <Shiral> Hope that doesn't conflict with the Michaeline vows...

[17:59] <Olympia> Hi there
[17:59] <kirienne> hi Olympia
[17:59] <the_Bee> hi Olympia
[17:59] <Tika> hey there Olympia
[18:00] <Martine> I talked to Kim's mom this morning. All the memorials
are in the name of Kim Christine Bergman-Warriner, and they're treating
Cole as the legal heir to her estate, even though the marriage was
religious/spiritual only thanks to immigration :-P
[18:00] <KK> Hello, Nancy!
[18:00] <Martine> hi olympia!
[18:00] <Wrengl> Katherine, Kathi is hoping to have a portrait of Lady
Sedina Fraser, in garb, ready for Darkover
[18:00] <ethan> hi Nancy and Olympia
[18:00] <Bynw> stupid immigration crap
[18:00] <Mistyck> good that they are treating Cole as the legal heir
[18:00] <KK> That would be wonderful.
[18:00] <ethan> hi Joram
[18:00] <Wrengl> it will be a present for Cole and she will sell prints
[18:00] <kirienne> that is good they're treating Cole as heir
[18:01] <Dov> yes wonderful
[18:01] <Martine> They really do view him as their new son :-)
[18:01] <Tika> :)
[18:01] <Wrengl> yes, that is what Kim would certainly want
[18:01] <Olympia> I'm hoping to have info by the end of next week for
the Gift of Life Transplant House fund, at which time it will be posted
on the website (thanking you in advance, Martine)
[18:01] <kirienne> :-)
[18:01] <KK> At least the immigration folk didn't try to hinder the
migration of folk to the wedding. In fact, it sounds like they got
into the spirit.
[18:01] <Mistyck> great news there
[18:01] <Martine> Perhaps in all this, that's the gift for Kim's
family. They unfortunately lost her, but they've gained a
son/brother/cousin in her place.
[18:01] <Shiral> Definitely
[18:01] <Tika> heh, yes they did
[18:01] <Shiral> And it was a wedding in all the most important senses
[18:01] <Wrengl> ten percent of the print proceeds will go to the fund
[18:01] <Tika> everyone coming through was asked "are you going to the
wedding?"
[18:01] <Martine> You're welcome in advance, Nancy :-)
[18:02] <KK> I've already sent a check to Gift of Life House, and note
about it to Kim's mom.
[18:02] <Tika> that's wonderful KK
[18:02] <Shiral> I'm sure Jan will appreciate taht
[18:02] <Olympia> Awesome, Pat! and thank you Katherine. I'll call the
Gift of Life House directly tomorrow
[18:02] <Shiral> that, too
[18:02] <Wrengl> that is great katherine
[18:03] <Olympia> Both the City of Heroes group and our SCA friends are
eager to donate as well. Just give me a chance to set things up so that
GoL knows that the $$ is for North Dakotans in Kim's name
[18:03] <KK> And Kim got her bonnie kiltie lad after all!
[18:03] <Mistyck> I have to wait until the end of the month, but I wll
also be sending a check
[18:03] <Martine> Yes, in Fraser tartan, no less!
[18:03] <Tika> He was spiffy in his green Fraser Tartan
[18:03] <Tika> :)
[18:03] <Shiral> Most excellent =o)
[18:03] <Olympia> Keep an eye on the website for all the details.
[18:03] <Tika> and his mother had words about the tie in the basement
lol
[18:03] <kirienne> :-)
[18:04] <Tika> as we were printing out the vows :)
[18:04] <Martine> LOL I didn't hear about that, Tika! Do tell!
[18:04] <Tika> he didn't want to wear the tie - it was cute
[18:04] <Martine> rotfl!!!
[18:04] * Shiral hopes that where Kim is now, she'll have some kilted
lads to look at, while I'm sure she is loyally waiting for Cole
[18:04] <Tika> and she said "you are wearing a tie at your wedding and
that's final"
[18:04] <Tika> lol
[18:04] <Shiral> lol
[18:04] <Dov> :)
[18:04] * Bynw remembers that little conversation
[18:04] <Martine> That's hysterical, Tika, because jan was telling me
that his stepmom was doing the EXACT same thing for the funeral
yesterday!
[18:04] <kirienne> I'm sure she had a hero's escort,of lads in kilts
[18:04] <KK> He would have looked sillin in that kilt rig with no tie.
[18:05] <Tika> I can believe it
[18:05] <KK> silly
[18:05] <Martine> "You will wear a suit, and you will wear a tie,
and...."
[18:05] * Bynw told Cole right after that that I didnt have to have a
tie at my wedding
[18:05] <Tika> everyone was a bit flustered at that point I guess with
it being T -2 hours or so
[18:05] <Tika> :)
[18:05] <Joram> Full Scottish formal wear? Nothing fancier in the
world.
[18:05] <KK> Well, Jedi kights don't wear ties; kiltie lads in the 21st
century do.
[18:06] <Tika> hehehe
[18:06] <Martine> LOL And Sharon/Pat/Juli were looking for my lift back
to the lodge to change, but I was still working on Kim's makeup,
because every two minutes she had to pause for a five-minute
conversation with someone else....
[18:06] <Olympia> Heh - John and I wore Hawaiian shirts at ours but if
we make it to Darkover I suspect we'll be a bit more formal.
[18:06] * Bynw thinks us jedi knights are better off ... ties are yucky
[18:06] <Shiral> Especially when their mothers are there to tell them
so <G>
[18:06] <Tika> and then there was Duck...
[18:06] * Tika just giggles
[18:06] <Martine> rotflmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[18:06] <KK> What did Duck do?
[18:06] <Shiral> What did Donald do?
[18:06] <Bynw> aussie kiss
[18:06] <Martine> A Duck dared by Kim's mother no less.....
[18:07] <Mistyck> hehe
[18:07] <KK> (The Duck did what a duck does when a duck does his duty
to a...lass!)
[18:07] <Martine> Kim's mother complained that Duck hadn't said
anything outrageous yet. What was a Duck to do?
[18:07] <Shiral> What IS an aussie kiss, in this context?
[18:07] * Bynw falls of his chair laughing
[18:07] <Tika> okay
[18:07] <Martine> In Duck's words.... ahem....
[18:07] <Olympia> oi! yo had to ask, melissa
[18:07] <Martine> "It's just like a French kiss, but down under"
[18:07] <Shiral> Okay now I'm sorry I asked <G>
[18:07] <kirienne> lol
[18:07] <Dov> ouch :)
[18:07] <Martine> Spoken VERY loudly so ALL could hear at the
reception, just after the toast
[18:07] <Annie> rofl
[18:07] <Shiral> lol
[18:07] <Tika> and Kim's response
[18:07] <Shiral> Sounds like Donald all right
[18:07] <ethan> lol
[18:07] <Tika> "What the HELL were you thinking"
[18:07] <Tika> to her mom :)
[18:08] <Bynw> Kim's mom had to give duck card blanc because she said
nothing would embarrass the family
[18:08] <KK> I....see..... ;-)
[18:08] <Olympia> Donald is really quite a dangerous lad behind that
adorable smile
[18:08] <RainbowDragon> oh my goodness!
[18:08] <Shiral> Yes, he can be
[18:08] <Martine> Kim's mom got revenge later and gave him a good
rear-pinching ;-)
[18:08] <Tika> it was so.....Donald :)
[18:08] <KK> Was she right?
[18:08] <Shiral> Well, Kim IS the one who turned up at a certain Jedi
wedding with a banana and two plums....
[18:08] <Tika> no i think she learned her lesson
[18:08] <Martine> About the immediate family, yup, she was right. Don't
know what the extended relatives thought.
[18:08] <Tika> LOL
[18:08] <Bynw> no she wasnt right
[18:09] <Martine> Ah, someone did get offended?
[18:09] <Tika> no not offended just rather shocked LOL
[18:09] <Shiral> As I recall, there were one or two aunts Kim wouldn't
have minded shocking, I think
[18:09] <Tika> oy
[18:09] <Olympia> I found Aunt Lois' piano playing just as uninspired
as Kim warned me it would be.
[18:09] <Martine> Hee hee well that's to be expected. He's a Duck!
[18:09] <Tika> we kinda stayed outside after that one showed up
[18:09] <Olympia> Bah, he's an Australian regardless of the whole
Newcastle-on-Tyne origins!
[18:10] <Martine> Yeah... managed to make it through the reunion,
wedding AND reception without meeting Aunt Lois until all was over ;-)
[18:10] <Olympia> hee hee so no loads of frozen airborne shrimp were
dropped upon her, eh?
[18:10] <Bynw> i avoided her, never met her
[18:10] <Shiral> Very clever Martine <G>
[18:10] <Martine> No, but there was some sort of seafood salad dish.
:-P
[18:11] <Olympia> oh no! you're kidding!
[18:11] <Martine> Nope.
[18:11] <Martine> Didn't try it. Wasn't gonna touch it.
[18:11] <Olympia> no sh**
[18:11] <Martine> Especially after wondering how far that seafood had
to be driven in. It certainly isn't sold at either of the in-town
supermarkets.
[18:11] <Martine> And the next town over is Minot - 80 miles away!
[18:12] * Seri has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:12] <DeryniBot> Seri has taken the Oaths and has become a member of

[18:12] <Olympia> Guess none of them ever took Epidemiology 101
[18:12] <KK> good lord!
[18:12] <Shiral> oy...
[18:12] <Tika> she's not kidding
[18:12] <Shiral> hi seri
[18:12] <Olympia> It's always either the mayo or the shellfish
[18:12] <the_Bee> hi seri
[18:12] <Tika> we drove it to get Sharon and Donald
[18:12] <Olympia> (usually the mayo)
[18:12] <kirienne> hi Seri
[18:12] <Tika> heya Seri how's you?
[18:12] <Martine> hi seri!
[18:12] <Shiral> hi seri
[18:12] <Tika> Seri and thatdarncat went to the funeral yesterday...
[18:13] <Mistyck> hi Seri
[18:13] <Seri> hi guys
[18:13] <ethan> hi Seri
[18:13] <Tika> they are Cole's roommates
[18:13] <Ghostgames> I thought it was never the mayo -- always the meat
(usually chicken) /in/ the mayo....
[18:13] <duzi> Isn't serving bad seafood, social death? I think I saw
that in a movie:)
[18:13] <Tika> and the ones who brought him to Faro when Kim and Cole
met :)
[18:13] <Tika> Fargo, too
[18:13] <kirienne> :-)
[18:13] <Olympia> Social and practical sometimes too
[18:13] <RainbowDragon> How is Cole doing, Seri?
[18:13] <Tika> LOL Olympia you naughty thing
[18:13] <Martine> lol
[18:14] <Seri> he just got home as well
[18:14] <Shiral> Certainly not advisable
[18:14] <Annie> going to have to sleep now, people. Sorry to be a
wake-pooper but I must go to bed
[18:14] <Olympia> Noooo always the mayo
[18:14] <Martine> Good night, Annie
[18:14] <Mistyck> g'nite Annie
[18:14] <Annie> night all

[18:14] <Annie> see you soon
[18:14] <KK> Nighters, Annie.
[18:14] <Seri> he's been more of himself this weekend, having all the
family helped
[18:14] <Olympia> Byeee Annie
[18:14] * Annie Quit
[18:14] <Tika> you mean Cole?
[18:14] <kirienne> Seri, give him hugs from all of us
[18:14] <Mistyck> yes, definitely hugs from all of us
[18:15] <Tika> I bet he's glad to be home
[18:15] <Olympia> aunt lois and the shrimp was why kim and i did the
mantra daily: i am the bride and it's my wedding.
[18:15] <Martine> Mega-huggles for Cole
[18:15] <Olympia> Mostly it just made her giggle but that's ok too :)
[18:15] <Shiral> Definitely
[18:15] <Martine> LMAO, Nancy! did she ever tell you what I made her
write in her wedding planner?
[18:15] <Shiral> Laughs are NEVER inappropriate for a bride <G>
[18:15] <Olympia> Heh nope - so tell, Martine
[18:16] <Martine> "A wedding is successful when the day ends, and the
bride and groom are married. And no one dies. Except maybe Aunt Lois."
[18:16] <Shiral> We're waaaaaiiting....
[18:16] <Tika> ROFL
[18:16] <Shiral> lol
[18:16] <Mistyck> rofl
[18:16] <Olympia> roflmao
[18:16] <kirienne> lol!!!!!!!
[18:16] <KK> Tee-hee.
[18:16] <Olympia> you are evvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvil Martine
[18:16] <Martine> :-d
[18:16] <Bynw> hehehehe
[18:16] <Olympia> from tasting her seafood salad, of course
[18:16] <ethan> lol
[18:16] * Bynw huggles Martine for that one
[18:17] <Olympia> "No, really, Aunt Lois, why don't YOU taste it
first..."
[18:17] <Martine> Hee hee hee hee
[18:17] <Ghostgames> Poor Aunt Lois! ;-)
[18:17] <Shiral> no, take a bigger bite, lois..."
[18:17] <KK> My thought precisely.
[18:17] <Martine> I didn't quite understand... until I met her myself.
[18:17] <Martine> Then I realized just how much it takes to tick Kim
off <g>
[18:17] <Shiral> A bit self-centered?
[18:17] <Wrengl> hi seri
[18:17] * Wrengl Passes out glasses of the White Kosher Italian Muscat
Wine Kim loved in a toast to her life and courage
[18:17] <the_Bee> I still don't. I haven't met her
[18:18] * kirienne raises her glass again
[18:18] <Tika> I have an Aunt with a similar personality
[18:18] <Ghostgames> (That's enough for me, Pat, I'm still tipsy from
the last toast!) :-)
[18:18] <Mistyck> I think there's one in every family
[18:18] <Bynw> yes you do Tika
[18:18] <Tika> I was typing "ask Bynw"
[18:18] <Tika> LOL
[18:18] <Martine> She was barking out demands to wedding guests she
hadn't even met yet - without introducing herself. And certainly
without a friendly "Would you mind lending a hand?"
[18:18] <Olympia> I suspect it's more an issue of people glomming onto
a wedding and turning it into their event
[18:19] <babayaga> If Wrengl keeps passing out the wine like this,
we're gonna be toast ourselves soon
[18:19] <Shiral> Oh wow... General Lois
[18:19] <Martine> Wrengl dubbed her "The Generalissimo" :-D
[18:19] <Mistyck> yep
[18:19] <kirienne> lol
[18:19] * thatdarncat looks in
[18:19] <Bynw> and the fruitcake
[18:19] <Tika> she's passing out until we're passing out :)
[18:19] <Wrengl> martine how could you say that about generalissimo
lois!
[18:19] <Wrengl> tee hee
[18:19] <Olympia> oooo I love fruitcake
[18:19] <Tika> heya tdc
[18:19] <Martine> Hee hee hee Pat
[18:19] <RainbowDragon> Hi tdc
[18:19] <Mistyck> hi tdc
[18:19] <kirienne> are you sure her name wasn't loris?
[18:19] * Tika gives thatdarncat behind-ear scritches
[18:19] <KK> lol
[18:19] <Tika> OMG kirienne
[18:19] <Tika> LOL
[18:19] <Martine> rotfl! omg!!!!!!
[18:19] <Shiral> Probably a relative <G>
[18:19] <Olympia> lol very funny!
[18:19] <kirienne> hi tdc
[18:19] <Mistyck> rofl
[18:20] <ethan> hi tdc
[18:20] <thatdarncat> ello all
[18:20] <Ghostgames> I do feel sorry for people like that -- whether
it's the absolutely clueless (one of Paul's business partners has no
idea she's a laughing stock) or the imperious or whatever.
[18:20] * thatdarncat purrs and bumps Tikamaja
[18:20] <Ghostgames> I suspect they're very lonely.
[18:20] <Olympia> Wait a sec, wasn't Bishop Loris very large? I always
envision him as looking like Orson Wells playing Cardinal Woolsey in
Man for All Seasons
[18:20] <Bynw> I dont
[18:20] <the_Bee> I thought Loris was skinny
[18:20] <Shiral> I always see Loris as more of a Christopher Lee type
[18:20] <Bynw> i envision Loris like the bishop in ladyhawke
[18:20] <Shiral> Complete with the voice
[18:20] <kirienne> so do I
[18:20] <ethan> I thought he was described as lean
[18:20] <Ghostgames> I try not to picture Loris. ;-)
[18:20] <Olympia> He probably was - he just always seems sort of like
Jabba the Bishop to me
[18:21] <the_Bee> Hubert was fat iirc
[18:21] <Martine> Ooooo Christopher Lee!
[18:21] <Tika> LOL Ann
[18:21] <duzi> Loris was skinny, so the Christopher lee is a good
guess.
[18:21] <Shiral> Hubert was the Orson Welles of Gwynedd
[18:21] <RainbowDragon> Lets ask the expert! (she's here after all)
whats Loris look like, KK?
[18:21] <Tika> oooo
[18:21] <Wrengl> i will have that fruitcake again at darkover, nancy
[18:21] <Tika> you're getting radical now RD :)
[18:21] <Olympia> Probably skinny body, fat evil :)
[18:21] <Bynw> RainbowDragon, thats just too radical
[18:21] <Wrengl> this year in honour of you and john
[18:21] <Shiral> Excellent, Pat
[18:21] <KK> Well, where I'm writing now, they're both fairly slim.
[18:21] <Tika> ok a warning about Pat's fruitcake
[18:21] <Tika> no driving afterward :)
[18:21] <Martine> It's a shot in a slice?
[18:21] <Wrengl> lol
[18:21] <kirienne> lol
[18:21] <Mistyck> it's yummy
[18:22] <Olympia> Sounds good, Pat - I need to see if we can get there
ok what with the miles 'n stuff
[18:22] <Wrengl> that's what the guests were saying
[18:22] <Shiral> Loris is a shot in a slice???
[18:22] <Tika> Martine - exactly!
[18:22] <Wrengl> and i saw some have more than one piece
[18:22] <Bynw> no loris is just shot
[18:22] <Bynw> with a cannon
[18:22] <Mistyck> lol
[18:22] <Wrengl> lol bynw
[18:22] <the_Bee> or deserves to be
[18:22] <KK> Olympia, any final word on the closing?
[18:22] <ethan> he's more like a stab in the back
[18:22] <Martine> LOL no cannons in Deryniland.
[18:22] <Wrengl> indeedd bynw
[18:22] <Wrengl> i was unable to avoid Lois much
[18:22] <Wrengl> i move too slow
[18:22] <Mistyck> I had more than one piece...
[18:23] <Mistyck> Pat's fruitcake is too yummy to have just one piece
[18:23] <Bynw> hmmm notice how those to names are similar .... hmmmm
[18:23] <Mistyck> lol
[18:23] <Shiral> Well, they'd shoot Loris out of a cannon if they HAD
cannons, Martine <G>
[18:23] <Wrengl> i would follow her instructions once or twice,
carrying things down the stairs and then going up again and then find a
place to hide
[18:23] <Mistyck> lol
[18:23] <Wrengl> indeed they would shiral
[18:24] <Martine> LOL Wrengl, you should have just told her you can't
do stairs!
[18:24] <Wrengl> the generalisimo also
[18:24] <Wrengl> she never gave one a chance!
[18:24] <Tika> KK, I believe Olympia became a new homeowner yesterday
;)
[18:24] <Wrengl> duck hid me a couple of times
[18:24] <KK> aha!
[18:24] <Mistyck> hehe
[18:24] <Mistyck> cool!
[18:24] <Mistyck> congrats Nancy!
[18:24] <Wrengl> yes, congratulations nancy

[18:24] <kirienne> congratulations Nancy
[18:25] <Shiral> Congratulations on your new abode, Nancy
[18:25] <Joram> Congratulations
[18:25] <ethan> congratulations
[18:25] <Olympia> Thanks - we're in escrow but we have the formal
inspection on tuesday - 2-story townhouse 1593 sq ft
[18:25] <Mistyck> nice!
[18:25] <Ghostgames> ooh nice!
[18:25] <Ghostgames> Do they allow cats? (but you can't have Grey
Kitten!)
[18:25] <thatdarncat> brb
[18:25] <Tika> lol
[18:25] * thatdarncat Quit
[18:26] <Dov> quit /blessings to all
[18:26] * Martine tries to picture Nancy with cats
[18:26] * thatdarncat has joined #Deryni_Destinations
[18:26] <DeryniBot> Welcome thatdarncat to your appointment on the
Camberian Council
[18:26] <Olympia> LOL! yes pets are allowed but if I can't have Grey
why bother :)
[18:26] <Shiral> Precisely
[18:26] * Dov Quit (Quit: blessings to all)
[18:26] <KK> Where? Out closer to where John works?
[18:26] <Ghostgames> But you're welcome to come visit him anytime yo
like.
[18:26] <Mistyck> wb tdc
[18:26] <Mistyck> boy, Dov was fast
[18:26] <Martine> Nancy, the rescue organization I help sometimes has a
BEAUTIFUL grey that's just the sweetest thing....
[18:26] <Martine> :-d
[18:26] <Ghostgames> He's turning into quite a handsome moose. Still
hasn't fully grown into his paws yet and he's already weighing almost
as much as Shadow.
[18:26] <Martine> What, Ann????
[18:26] <Olympia> It's in a small little complex - behind a nice gate
with a security system in the place AND a stereo system throughout - it
was the model.
[18:26] <Shiral> Careful, Martine will point out every cute kitty she
can find...
[18:26] <Martine> Shadow is five bricks in a cat suit! Ghost is gonna
weigh more?????
[18:27] <Olympia> Unfortunately, neither John nor I can have cats or
dogs - mega-allergies.
[18:27] <kirienne> wow, it sounds wonderful Nancy
[18:27] <Shiral> NIna has turned into a little brick in a fur suit
[18:27] <Olympia> Oversize bathtub (a good thing!) with a jacuzzi. And
it cuts John's commute down from 1+ hr to 20 mins max
[18:27] <Olympia> lol shiral!
[18:27] <Wrengl> wb tdc
[18:27] <Shiral> Excellent, Olympia
[18:27] <Ghostgames> It's already taking Shadow longer to get Grey
Ghost to back down when they have a spat. Thank goodness they mostly
get along!
[18:27] <Tika> that's an interesting mental picture, Shiral
[18:27] <kirienne> that is excellent
[18:27] <Shiral> Will be right over with my bath salts
[18:27] <Olympia> Oh, I have THE most adorable kitten picture to send -
Martine - I'll send it to you for posting - my friends Eric & Gabi
rescued 2 kittens and named them Hawkeye and Radar
[18:27] <Martine> Too allergic for even cute little angel?
http://www.petfinder.org/pet.cgi?action=2&pet=4707123&adTarget=&SessionID=43090e5b23b55156-app5&display=&preview=1&row=0&tmpl=&stat=
[18:27] <KK> Excellent. What geographic area?
[18:28] <Olympia> eek no bath salts! precluded from all that stuff (but
don't wanna TMI)
[18:28] <Martine> Oooo! Kitten pics!
[18:28] <Ghostgames> I have some nice bubble bath with black tea and
currants.... ;-)
[18:28] <Olympia> the nice part of Reseda, Katherine :)
[18:28] <Shiral> Okay, okay.. no Bath Salts <G>
[18:28] <KK> ah.
[18:28] <Tika> I looked yesterday on the map, not that far away from
Beverly Hills :)
[18:28] <Olympia> right near a true farmers' market
[18:28] <Olympia> LOL depends on the day of the week and the traffic,
Tika!
[18:28] <Shiral> Oh mega nice
[18:28] <Wrengl> our lady ashley was sent to the pound last week
[18:28] <kirienne> that's nice Nancy
[18:29] <Kelos_AFK> KK: If I'm able to this year, will send you a
lovely Earl Grey I've recently discovered... :)
[18:29] <KK> Why to the pound?!
[18:29] <Tika> well... distance-wise anyway :)
[18:29] <Wrengl> she got pissed, peed on an electrical outlet, and
started a fire
[18:29] <Tika> yipe
[18:29] <kirienne> oh my!!!
[18:29] <Shiral> Not what you want in a cat!
[18:29] <Wrengl> luckily kathi was upstairs in the studio or we might
have all been killed
[18:29] <Olympia> Paat, what happened? the day I went to see Donald it
took me almost 2 hrs to get from Burbank to the Marina (which will only
mean something to them's wot used ta live here)
[18:29] <Joram> lol
[18:29] <Wrengl> nope
[18:29] <Olympia> eek! pat!
[18:29] <Wrengl> especially when we do go away a couple of times a year
[18:29] <Olympia> My friend Sharon's cats chew through the phone cord
all the time :(
[18:29] <Shiral> You do not move swiftly on Los Angeles area freeways
[18:30] <Wrengl> she was not really a nice kitty and never fit into the
meow mafia
[18:30] <Joram> There is stuff you can get to put on cords that make
them taste bad to the cats.
[18:30] <KK> Well, I hope she finds another home.
[18:30] <Ghostgames> One cat we had (that we also returned to the
pound) would pee on the electric burners if we left on an overnight, we
wouldn't know until we turned the burner on.
[18:30] <Shiral> Wow, TOO much of a mafiosa for the Meow Mafia--that's
a tough kitty
[18:30] <Olympia> As I told some of you, that was the day my car
overheaded on the way BACK from lunch and had to be towed - broken head
gasket
[18:30] <Martine> One where she's happier, with fewer of her stress
triggers.
[18:30] <Wrengl> so do we
[18:30] <Tika> ewwww Ann
[18:30] <Wrengl> but it was too dangerous to leave her here
[18:30] <Shiral> I hope she finds a hope too
[18:30] <Shiral> Home, that is, AND a hope
[18:30] <Olympia> In honor of wanting a pet, I got a Neopet :)
[18:31] <Ghostgames> It was when she scratched and bit me that we
brought her back to the shelter. (I usually get along well with cats!
But she was an evil witch who cast a spell to get us to adopt her and
then wasn't satisfied with the home we provided.)
[18:31] <Olympia> ick, Ann! that's not good
[18:31] <Tika> which one did you get Olympia? I forgot
[18:31] <Wrengl> yes, i hope so martine
[18:31] <Tika> those are so cute :)
[18:31] <babayaga> Blech! The con's not officially over until I've
blogged it, and now I have.
[18:31] <Olympia> A blue Kougra named Pouncydeleon
[18:31] <Wrengl> maybe as a lone kitty she might be more friendly
[18:31] <Olympia> Gencon is over... sigh. I couldn't go this year.
[18:31] <Martine> Yup. Some kitties just get hopelessly stressed out by
lots of other kitties.
[18:32] <Olympia> but, tika, i refuse to buy mcdonald's food for pouncy
[18:32] <Wrengl> indeed
[18:32] <Martine> Arwen gets stressed about ONE feline roommate :-P
Though she's learning to relax so long as she and Rowena aren't on the
floor in the same room.
[18:32] <Olympia> I find the marketing presence overbearing
[18:32] <babayaga> Olympia: I went to Otakon
[18:32] <Wrengl> she was spook's last baby
[18:32] <Wrengl> but no personality like any of the others
[18:32] <Olympia> Ah ok - I think we might make it to Gencon-West
[18:32] <KK> Fortunately, our now-six are doing ok. Sasha is now
friends with Nicholas, ok with Edgar. The girls hate him, as does Gus,
but he's playing passive and it's getting better.
[18:33] <Martine> hooray!
[18:33] <Shiral> Excellent
[18:33] <Wrengl> madam ran out of the house when we went to pick up
donald for our expedition to massachusetts and connecticut
[18:33] <kirienne> great
[18:33] <Shiral> Have Sasha's whiskers grown back?
[18:33] <Wrengl> would not come back
[18:33] <Ghostgames> I didn't go to GenCon either -- and I'm glad! But
I do wonder how well Grey Ghost's sales were without me there to push
product.
[18:34] <Wrengl> boy was she pissed and stamping her little paws in
annoyance by the time we got home last night after seeing donald off
and stopping at an office max
[18:34] <the_Bee> is madam still awol?
[18:34] <Martine> lol wrengl
[18:34] <Wrengl> great katherine
