I'm having trouble commenting and navigating around SC tonight.  Is it just me?  It's like talking to my sister--can't get a word in edgewise....ha.
 
But while I'm here I may as well talk about her.  (She can't give me that "Spinning C" of not hearing me...ha...)
 
Aww..she's ok for the most part as sister's go.  A bit on the hypochondriactic side sometimes, but now she has good reason.  Awhile back I posted about her car accident.  If anyone remembers, the update on that is that she is still in rehab and learning to walk with a cane now as opposed to her walker.  (broken hip and leg bones)
 
I call her occasionally and we chat like old times.  Well, not exactly like old times--because now I am far away and she lets me do more talking and less listening---which is a nice change.
 
But while I am struggling to get around here tonight, I will probably do more "listening" than talking if I can't make this mouse more like a rabbit than a turtle.  If not--maybe I will go call my sister, and see you all later...

    I've noticed a slow down too.  In fact have posted a reply more than once because I thought the submit button had lost it.

    uniquely-ironic:  It seems to have picked up now, but I saw your "triple" comment and knew what had happend--you hit submit more than once, right?  Thanks for stopping in.

    LOL XD

    I am glad your sister is doing better.  I wish I had a sister, I have 3 younger brothers...

    Now; I have 3 daughters, I get to enjoy watching them interact with each other...

    Yes SC, is better now than a couple of hours ago...

    see you around wombie

    <3 paper = )
  • wombat said on Feb 28, 2008....

    PAPER:  (shortened your name, sorry...)  but thanks for stopping in, too!  I have 3 sisters--all quirky.  Now why does that surprise anyone?  Yes, this one is doing better and thanks for saying that.  And SC is moving like a rabbit now. (You liked that, huh?)     Must have been a temporary thing--but I hate it when I can't get anything to work!  I click out altogether, then can't get back in!

    I'm in and out now, watching tv.  Now I know what I need--a tv in the computer room!

    Take care.

    secretlife:  It's moving now....and glad you are doing ok!  I just wish I knew how to "navigate" and not miss things.  Sometimes I log on and realize I was "around" but missed good posts.  And it's like, "Hey, I was here but I am missing things." But I love catching up on what I can.
  • travelr712 said on Feb 28, 2008....

    I have little to say at the moment, but that rarely stops me from commenting.  :)

    Just wanted to say, "I hear ya!"  :)

    GrapeKoolaid:  You don't have to say anything....just a hello is nice.  Just a nod...

    Sometimes Soulcast is very slow to go to another post. I sit and wait, and for some reason, I pick the mouse up.  I don't know why I think that's gonna speed anything up, but I do it anyway.  Never works...don't bother trying it.
  • PAPERBACKWRITER said on Feb 28, 2008....

    Of course I donĀ“t mind you shortening my name :  ) , I prefer being paper any day. . .

    And I will never ever forget you dearest wombie you were my 72nd subscriber , and the year 1972 is very important to me ;  )!

    Oh and remember this

    Gute Nacht!

    gingersoul:  That was the sweetest thing....I don't even know what to say. You are so busy but took time to reply to my silly post.  Thank you so much.....I have a tear to wipe now...
     
    (and I've been forgetting to make bold the names of those who comment!)
     
    Twylarants:   I do that all the time!  Pick up the mouse and try to make it perform to my commands!
     
    Paper:  Really shortening here.....!  Must hit submit, then go look at your link. But till then, yes, Gute Nacht!
  • wombat said on Feb 28, 2008....
    PAPERBACKWRITER:   Oh, my goodness!  You still had that?   That is amazing, cool, wonderful and I am having to go to bed thinking about things that I had no idea I would have to go to bed thinking about.     Thank you!   A year in retrospect.....
  • lfbno7 said on Feb 29, 2008....
    I had the same experience, not sure if it was at the exact same time. Recently I was on, and it suddenly slowed up so much that I had to leave and do something else. Maybe it is system-wide.

Comment on "Slow But Sure/Is It Just Me?/Soul Sister"

slow ride sisters SC (Click to add tags below)

(Separate tags using commas, for example: New York, dating, vegetarian)

Just going out in the cold to smoke, and a Statie looking car is still at the neighbors after two or three smokes, and I see no activity there at all----just the car burning gas out in the street. I am nosy and want to know what's going on in there, but...
I just got tickled because I answered a comment on my post "Rumors of My Divorce" and below that was quietone's post, "I Have Men In My Basement."

Usually, it's one of my own posts stuck down there, but it's really funny this time! Might ha...
I'm thankful for all my SC friends. :-) So to pay tribute I will make the turkery, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy. You can bring a side dish or dessert.

All are welcome.

What will you bring?

CW...
Been listening to the lame Imus show at work and he's on this kick about people's five favorite songs of all time, so I thought about mine. They are:

Tuesday's Gone With the Wind

Midnight Train To Georgia

Lay Lady La...
I got confuzzled when I stopped in to get gas where I used to work, and the new lady there, who I've talked to some, interupted me with a question.

"So, you're divorced, aren't you?"

"What? Where'd you hear that?"
