Right now, I'd like to brag about my daughter. She was invited to a "small" costume party tonight. (12 to 13 year olds) The mother called and said it was just a few girls. The girl down the street was going, too..so I thought it would be fine. I dropped off the girls and the house seemed nice. About an hour later I received a call from Emmie telling me she wanted to come home. When I got there, the house was spilling over with kids!! Boys and girls. The majority of kids looked older and scarier. Emmie said a huge amount of kids showed up. ALSO, the girl who was giving the party did not tell her parents that she'd invited so many kids AND she lied about inviting boys. Plus, there were a lot of uninvited kids there, too. Emmie said one kid was complaining there wasn't any alcohol. It was his first party without it. She said there were a lot of rough kids there. I'm proud of Emmie for calling me.

right now, good for emmie! what a nice dd :-)

right now, i am glad i was released from the cardiac unit after 24 hours but i am worried about my ds. i didn't tell him i was in the hospital when i called as i was being moved from the e.r. to a telemetry unit. when i was discharged today, i checked my cell phone messages and he had 3 'seizure-like episodes' during the night. he went to san diego kaiser and spent 4 hours in the e.r., medicine and psyche facilities. he has to go back on tuesday and they will probably do a CT or MRI at the time. not one doctor had heard of some of his symptoms.
he had several syncopal (fainting) episodes in july and kaiser told him at the time that he had vertigo. during his first episode last night, he had excruciating head pain and said it felt like a power drill going into the back his skull and that he could actually hear the sound of a drill noise. he thought it was just a nightmare as he was sleeping during the first problem. he sat up the rest of the night and had two episodes when he was awake. both had the head pain but without accompanying noise. his gf said his face and body got really rigid and he was frozen for several seconds each time.
so, i am feeling better knowing i didn't have a heart attack, but i am worried for my ds.

Right now I'm proud of Twigs dd, I'm concerned for Tebs and her heart and I'm also concerned for Tebs ds and finally, I'm glad that Mocha reminded me to do the clock thingy.

Right now, LOL, Mocha. I will always remember that two years ago at this time I was in Cyprus, and I had to find out from YOU several days later that the time had changed. They changed over there too, but since we didn't speak or read Greek, we didn't know it.

Right now, thank you Mocha! I checked the tv guide channel earlier and was completely confused because they'd already changed the time and had the tv schedule matching the new one! I completely forgot about it.

Tabby, lots of prayers for you and your ds! Hope you both are feeling better tonight.

Twiggy, would you share with us parents with younger kids what you taught your dd to make her so responsible and intelligent? Takes a lot of guts at that age to leave a party your friends are at because you aren't comfortable and you know your parents wouldn't be happy about the type of party it turned out to be. I may not know her, but add me to the list of people proud of her!

Right now..ITA Wargod about Twiggy doing this. It took a lot of guts for Twiggy's dd to do what she did.

Right now..my goodness Tabby, thinking of both you and ds.

Right now I'm saying you raised a righteous girl there, Twiggy. Great for Emmie. Right now if any of you have a Flemmings steakhouse nearby and haven't gone, RUN don't walk to try their macaroni and cheese side dish. Everything we had on the menu was fantastic; the macaroni and cheese was the best I've ever had.

Right now, my thoughts are with you Tabby and family!

Right now I am still in San Francisco. It is a beautiful day and I think we might head down to Pier 39. Yesterday we took dd on her very first cab ride and she got to have her very first room service. It has been a fun weekend, but it will soon be time to head back home....boo hoo

right now I'm wondering if anybody besides me is having problems with TVCH? All I can get in to is General Discussions. If I click on The TVClubHouse or Topics I get "page not found". If I click on the home page I can get to it but the only thing that works for me there is General Discussions.

Right now I have to ask Serate: Can you post the exact link address found in your location bar on pages where links do not work for you? Also, what type of computer, which browser and operating sytem, and which versions of each are you using?

Right now thanks Draheid. And as far as the technical aspects of the computer, *L* I’m not very technical, my husband is “watching” the race with his eyes closed & snoring, so here’s my best shot at it.

Not sure what all you need/want so giving you what I found under system properties [not sure where else to look].

Computer:
Gateway Laptop Intel [R] Pentium [R] processor 1400MHz AT/AT Compatible

Operating System:
Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
5.00.2195
Service Pack 4

Browser:
Internet Explorer
Version 6.0.2800.2206IC

BTW: I got the same messages on the Dell PC which we just got in June, but figured it was just another problem we will have with the crappy Dell added to the other problems we’ve had so I switched to the laptop and got the same messages. [so maybe the Dell isn’t as crappy as I thought.]

Right now OOOPS didn't copy the whole page so I didn't post the the links for you so here they are.

Draheid here’s a couple of the error messages I get.

This address is when I click The TVClubHouse link in: “The TVClubHouse: General Discussions: Free Expression...: Right now”
../board-topics.html
This address is when I click Topics at the top of the page in the “Right Now” forum.

Right now Serate, I have no idea why you would have any trouble with those pages. They all work just fine for me in both Netscape & Internet Explorer (similar version) on Windows/XP. First I would suggest you try clearing your cache (click 'Tools - Internet Options' then click 'Delete Files', check '...Offline...' and click 'Ok' then 'Ok' to close), close your browser and start again.

If you still have page not found errors, can you please post the exact content of the page and the address of that page from the location window of your browser please?

Right now..I do agree a bit about the day dragging. I couldn't believe it wasn't lunch time when it was only just shortly after 11 and then I thought the afternoon was almost over and it was shortly after 3 - I will have fun trying to stay awake until 10 when Desperate Housewives is over.

right now, this first day after daylight savings time ends usually flies by...seems like it's dark at noon most years! today has been pretty long for me, too.
i went to discuss my verizon phone with someone. it's one of those flip-phone jobbies with cheap plastic hinges. well, my phone got stuck halfway open and halfway shut about a month back and when i had to force it closed, it broke a hinge.
i have been trying to hold it together to make phone calls. last night, it would let me put the number in and would start counting the seconds of air time, but i never connected with anyone.
today i went to where i got it. now, this was a couple who owned the place. he is also a cop. they were engaged. he met someone new. she got mad. he was arrested for domestic violence. she changed mind about pressing charges, then he married other woman, charges are back.... verizon store never opens even during middle of day, let alone posted hours...
so i go to radio shack. they can get a phone in 3 days. but it might not be covered. when they return my phone, a supervisor may say i damaged the phone so too bad. i ask about buying the cheapest phone available and it's 200 dollars. they call a supervisor who tells them he will okay an exchange between my phone and a refurbished identical model. but i have to go to merced, 40 miles away to get it. the verizon center is at their circuit city. i get to merced and all the streetlights are out. it takes 10 or 15 minutes to get through each intersection, because there are 3 lanes each direction on all four sides coming together. there are near accidents at each corner. 90 minutes after i leave home, i get to circuit city. they have no idea why i am there and tell me no one called them. they tell me it looks like i damaged my phone so it's not covered. an hour later, they say they can sell me a phone for 139 dollars but when they send mine in, if it's damage i did to the phone, they will bill me for another 61 dollars, the price difference in the two phones. i get them to call radio shack in my town and then they call the district guy who doesn't work weekends and he says to give me the refurbished phone. but they don't have one like mine, so they call turlock, which would have only been 40 miles from my house had i not had to go the other direction to merced. they have the phone. both marisol and fernando are apprised of what's going on. i drive through all the non-working lights and it takes me a good hour to get to turlock. i have to get in line at the verizon place. when i get to the counter, both marisol and fernando are there. they say they have no idea who i am and no one called them. i have them call the guy in merced who had called them. he's on break...aaargh. somebody finally calls district manager at home again and he gets pretty mad at them and tells them to give me the phone. fernando asks if they should charge me 50 bucks and the manager screams at him, 'no!'
so, for 120 miles of gas in a guzzling suburban, and a 4-hour tour, i ended up with a so-far working phone. sheesh! but my ds has no land-line phone and i have to be able to be in contact with him. so for that, it was worth the effort/expense.
but i'm wiped!!
it's 40 minutes from my house to turlock down a 2-lane highway straight north of me--but when you have to go 20 miles east, then 20 miles northeast and then 30 miles west to turlock, then 40 miles south back to my house....well, it sure adds up!
tabby made four right turns to make a left, i think :-)
