And sold! We might have the Golden Four.

Ugh I got all worked up tonight and the decision is coming tomorrow. CMU couldn't have been more vague with their announcement date.

Also, eavesdropping on a Spanish speaker's conversation when they think you don't understand them is heck of a lot of fun...especially when you join in...

Both of my kids have had the same issue. It is such a con. Your generation especially has so many bilingual people.

Like yesterday I remember my DD going through this. Then the next phase of deciding which one to accept. Pixie Dust and best of luck.

Wonky is hardly the word for it. So following your information it has a silent "a" and two "L's" that sound like a "Y", so really three useless letters when Myorca would have said the same thing. Now I know why I never took Spanish in school.

That, plus I had no interest in doing so.

And yet the 7 years of French was basically a waste in my life. In my first career I had to call Montreal multiple times a day, it could have been a use of my education but it was simpler to just reply to the greeting in English and the conversation continued in English as the majority of the interested parties were English Speaking. Montreal was just the gateway to the Great Lakes.

It was the only pair, and didn't have a tag on them.

Sympathy like. You might be able to find an item number on an inside tag. After finally finding a pair of jeans I like I went and bought a few pairs (in 4 different colors) and put the tag in our files. Finding a pair of jeans can be really bothersome to say the least. Have you tried Diane Gillman sp? My neighbor swears by them, she says they wear like iron. She lives in them and she still says they last forever. She also says HSN has the best price.

My finals week begins next week for College. At least I have one exam to take.

Good luck

When we met Gaston, he was so funny, and down to earth. He approached us as we were going to get the cinnamon rolls ( I wish they would serve them fresh and warm again, but I digress). The Gaston we interacted with was a really good "character". Your never too old!

My favorite will always be Flynn Rider. My ds was one of the first kids on line to meet Rapunzel. Very long story shorter her hairbraiders over slept and there would be at least an hour wait. They had a supervisor and a few other CMs to handle the situation as they were a bit worried (she was the A&E of the time) They said Flynn could be out in a few minutes but the kids could meet him in a few minutes and her later. Needless to say the girls were very unhappy. My ds told the CM he was fine with it and he was his favorite character. Anyway while we were waiting for him to come out my ds showed the cm the smolder he was practicing and they were talking about a few other things. Anyway they brought us back to the by the CM entrance/exit area of Fantasyland to meet him. He came out with a supervisor next thing we were at the Sword in the Stone and he did a whole cute little show and then my baby got to pull the sword out.

I'm finding out from college either tonight or tomorrow at midnight and I've been shaking since about 12:30 today.

Just keep watching Zootopia trailers all day!

Good luck and hope you got in! Also sending pixie dust your way.

Time for my nap, snore, snore....allergies are the pits!

Sympathy like. Good luck with the weather today, I hope it doesn't snow.

Looking and feeling worse. Where it was mostly in the toe area it is now bruised up the whole bone on the top of her foot.
Now she is considering making an appointment....next week. She really just wants it to be better doesn't want a boot or a cast again.

Sympathy like.

 

[Figgy1]

OK, as long as were dreaming...you can come stay with me for the winter months in Florida. Maybe @figmentfan423 would like to join us. If we get one more we can be the winter Golden Girls.

I'm in. I'll even bring the high speed blender so we can make some nice tropical drinks.

 

[Figgy1]

Good morning I didn't make out all that great yesterday at getting produce. I got enough to hold me over and will be back out tomorrow. The good thing about making nice with produce managers is I get the scoop on what comes in when and what's going on sale tomorrow.Today is getting in the Christmas spirit day here. We'll finish decorating watch some classic Christmas movies( that is if Muppet's christmas Carol is classic) and bake and freeze a few things to bring to my inlaws for Christmas. Have a magical weekend. xoxo

Sorry. I'm not understanding the question.

Sorry, I mean delaying the visit to the doctor by one week more. could make it worse for her (infection, bleeding.. swolling. bone regrowing crocked..etc..)

 

[Cesar R M]

I still have not installed 10. I get invites multiple times a day in a pop up but Microsoft has yet to hijack my computer and forced 10 into the laptop yet.

yeah, must be because microsoft "fixed" that patch 1 or 2 weeks later.

 

[Cesar R M]

No. In regular Spanish, it would be Mayorca, with the a being pronounced as if you were saying "Ma" in English. In Catalan, it would be different, but Catalan is a different language than Spanish (even though both technically came from Spain...)

You should like Spanish. It has even fewer unnecessary letters than English does.

Disagree

add the special characters, the accents and the ñ....
and most words are longer in spanish than in english.

of course.. they say spanish is way more accurate and exact than english.

 

[Cesar R M]

I can also tell you about the Spanish Civil War if you're interested...

go figure, I just seen 2 terror movies related to spain this week.

the orphanage and the devil's backbone.

its a necessity now.. considering how embedded and globalized the nations are.
