27349. arkymalarky - 6/26/2013 4:27:05 AM Oohh, I didn't see it. Did you call it? I hope he didn't leave it at the golf course. If you email me the number I can call and see if I hear it but I went through the upstairs pretty good. I'll check again. 27350. PincherMartin - 6/26/2013 7:44:31 AM I'm really worried about Alistair. Can someone email or phone his family and make sure he's okay?
I don't think you guys are taking his absence here seriously enough. He told me he would never welsh on me, and that I could always find him here at this forum under his real name. I have no reason not to believe him, so I assume he must be in serious trouble. 27351. judithathome - 6/26/2013 5:01:28 PM Alistair comes in here very rarely...he may be on vacation. I'm pretty sure he doesn't check in here when he's traveling...I know I don't. 27352. Ms. No - 6/26/2013 5:12:40 PM Arky,
I forgot to write down the name of that writing projects book. Can you tell me what it was? I want to order a copy of it for sure! Casper was showing me some of the exercises and they're really awesome --- some of them very similar to the AWA process I use with my kids. 27353. arkymalarky - 6/26/2013 6:39:26 PM sure!its called writing process activities kit 27354. Ms. No - 6/26/2013 7:13:47 PM Thanks! I'll eventually head over to the teaching thread and gab about my preparations, but right now I'm packing up to head out for Galveston! 27355. arkymalarky - 6/26/2013 7:21:40 PM Yay! I'm excited. I'm not going to my room until next week, but I would love to go right now. Have fun in Galveston! 27356. wabbit - 6/26/2013 7:34:47 PM Hello to Wally et al, I'll be ready! 27357. arkymalarky - 6/26/2013 7:45:30 PM Yay again! Wally has prostate cancer, but he's doing well. He looked great. 27358. arkymalarky - 6/26/2013 7:46:29 PM He just got diagnosed before thr gathering so we don't know his course of treatment yet 27359. judithathome - 6/26/2013 7:49:32 PM Arks, we finally found the phone...it was in the console of the backseat of my car. Keoni took a nap on the first leg of the drive back...neither one of us thought to look there! 27360. arkymalarky - 6/26/2013 10:24:48 PM That's great! I looked everywhere I could think of, but had it been in the yard the tractor would have probably found it. 27361. judithathome - 6/26/2013 11:23:24 PM This has actually worked out to be a good thing...he just left for the golf shop and went straight to the hall tree where I nag him to hang his keys...he'd put them there this morning with no nagging from me.
I said "Mark this day on the calendar!" and he said "Losing my phone scared me into it..."
We've spent enough time in our lives together searching for his lost keys that the total amount would have enabled both of us to get degrees from college. 27362. arkymalarky - 6/26/2013 11:52:50 PM it used to be just me, but now it's Stan too. I sorta like that because it takes some heat off of me. 27363. arkymalarky - 6/27/2013 5:41:16 PM Got my hammock fixed with paper lanterns and tiki torches. It's so nice. I'm going to put the lanterns over the hammock on a string. 27364. judithathome - 6/27/2013 8:15:55 PM Envious! 27365. PincherMartin - 6/27/2013 11:27:23 PM Wonderful two posts for the last twenty-four hours.
Arky: "Fixed my hammock with gewgaws and trinkets."
Judith: "Envious !"
I can see why Alistair doesn't come back to visit as often as he once did. A teenager's Facebook page on their rock collection has more drama and interest. 27366. PincherMartin - 6/27/2013 11:29:19 PM Maybe if someone lets slip on The Mote email vine that Arky and Judith are not here at the forum, Alistair will come back and settle his debt with me. 27367. judithathome - 6/28/2013 2:32:47 AM Fuck off, asshole.
There...you should feel right at home now. 27368. PincherMartin - 6/28/2013 8:40:51 AM Thanks, Darling. That does make me feel better.
Now if you can just make Arky come up with another one of those vague, generic seven-point lists that purports to comprehensively explain everything that is wrong with my arguments and posting style, I will feel right at home.
