Korel Laloix: Actually... I am enjoying a slow time in my life right now.... no schoolwork at the moment.
Korel Laloix: Sort of don't know what to do with myself.
Raffila Millgrove: oooh nice.
Korel Laloix: Just getting som reading done.... me reading, not school reading.
Raffila Millgrove: wel you're busy in grandma's garden too.. that must be relaxing/work .. fun.
Korel Laloix: That is a constant.
Raffila Millgrove: what are you reading? something you think we would like too maybe?
Korel Laloix: But yes, I do love that.
Korel Laloix: Maybe, rereading an edition of the book of James with an intro by the Dali Lama.
Raffila Millgrove: the Bible book of James?
Korel Laloix: And getting through Custer Died for Your Sins.
Korel Laloix: Yes.
Raffila Millgrove: gee. what did the Dali say? that is interesting.
Raffila Millgrove: i mean i find that interesting the the Dali intro'd.
Korel Laloix: Draws some parallels between that book and some of his faith's principles.
Raffila Millgrove: James is the last of the apostles to tell the story.. last one written chronologically. some scholars feel it has big differences from Matthew's version.
Korel Laloix: http://www.amazon.com/The-Book-James-Epistles-ebook/dp/B004E9TJ8C/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331778064&sr=8-1-fkmr2
Korel Laloix: It does make an interesting read... I would recomend it.
Raffila Millgrove: oopsie.. have the wrong book there.. these are epistles by later writers.
Paradise Tennant: smiles and waves hiya san stev raf .. korel :) nice to see everyone :)
Raffila Millgrove: hi Para.
Santoshima Resident: dalai lama, or the dali lama (distant cousin to salvador)?
Korel Laloix: Heya
Santoshima Resident: hey paradise
Korel Laloix: Uncle in law.
Korel Laloix smiles
stevenaia Michinaga: Hi PAradise
Santoshima Resident: tech question, can I ask one?
Raffila Millgrove: the dali lets me mispell him.. we have a very close relationship.
Santoshima Resident: :)
Korel Laloix: Sure
Santoshima Resident: ok
Santoshima Resident: why
Santoshima Resident: does this harddrive
Santoshima Resident: fill up whenever i come online to sl?
Santoshima Resident: by 10-15%
Korel Laloix: How do you know this?
Santoshima Resident: i look at techtools and see the percentage of useage
Raffila Millgrove: (can't give the tech answer--but i alwasy get messages about the CPU being 100 percent used) here in sl.
Korel Laloix: Sounds more like your CPU usage, not your hard drive.
stevenaia Michinaga: mine consumes much of my RAM, but not HD space
Santoshima Resident: hmm, ok
Raffila Millgrove: yes my CPU. you sure it's your hard drive San?
stevenaia Michinaga: and runs at 100% cpu too
Santoshima Resident: will investigate further
Santoshima Resident: yes, hd
Santoshima Resident: ok
Korel Laloix: If it is actually your drive, then it sounds like you have your virtual memory setting strange.
Raffila Millgrove: well Sl just stresses everything in the computer. that's how i look at it.
Santoshima Resident: ok ... oh dear ...that's enough of that ... thanks!
Raffila Millgrove: (even the fan hums louder when i get here. lol)
Santoshima Resident: yes, lotta humming going on
Santoshima Resident: i better go to work ... see you later
Raffila Millgrove: bye San.. have a good one!

Santoshima Resident: :)
Raffila Millgrove: lol

--BELL--

Korel Laloix: I agree on the warm laptop thing.
stevenaia Michinaga: it;s 70 now, so it just heats the room
Korel Laloix: That is good as well.
Korel Laloix: I sooo can't wait for summer.
Raffila Millgrove: it's really warm here now.. and the flowers all blooming.
Raffila Millgrove: spring has sprung.
Paradise Tennant: really enjoy spring .. always feels like an awakening to me after the grey and cold of winter
Korel Laloix: I have almost convinced Ru to go with me on a short road trip for spring break.
stevenaia Michinaga: yes, a month too soon
Raffila Millgrove: i have to wait another month.. i am under oak trees and uphigher--microclimate.. colder and less sun. so i admire my neighbors gradens below. and wait for mine to catch up.
Paradise Tennant: cool korel where are you thinking of going
Raffila Millgrove: where will you go Korel?
Korel Laloix: Not sure yet... but thinking of heading north.... find some state parks or the like to hike around and camp.
Korel Laloix: I will make a plan, but I have to have the time frame first.
Korel Laloix: More national grass lands I wand to visit for sure.
Paradise Tennant: sounds lovely ..love doing that ..just hoping in the car ..without much of an agenda :)
Korel Laloix: ON the bike though..... that is the trick.
Paradise Tennant: hmm motorcycle or bicycle ?
Raffila Millgrove: oh that's not as comfy.. you cannot lie back and snack on a bike.
Korel Laloix: Motor
Korel Laloix: But it is a lovely time.
Korel Laloix: But if she won't go for the bike, then we will car it.
Paradise Tennant: yes a nice way to travel
Korel Laloix: And it makes you travel light.
Korel Laloix: That is what I like best.
Paradise Tennant: nods ... the best way to travel ;)
Raffila Millgrove: i like to travel heavy.. love to haul a lot of books and bananas and ..so forth. lol
Paradise Tennant: lol
Korel Laloix: I know the feeling..... but I love the simplicity.
Korel Laloix: Just enough space for necessiteies, sleeping bags and a tent.
Raffila Millgrove: i liked backpacking.. so . i can relate to simplicity.
Paradise Tennant: yes .. when you are backpacking you really look at each item ..
stevenaia Michinaga: used to love camping... a long time ago
Raffila Millgrove: you sure do, knowing you are going to lug it up and down the mountain.
Raffila Millgrove: para will you take a trip this spring?
Raffila Millgrove: hi Luci
Lucinda Lavender: Luci quietly says hi...the pause approaches!
stevenaia Michinaga: greetings Luci
Lucinda Lavender: :)))

--BELL--

Korel Laloix: Think myabe heading south instead... Johnson and McClellon National Grasslands.
Korel Laloix: Have not been to those yet.
Lucinda Lavender: luci listens
Korel Laloix: Talking about road trips.
Lucinda Lavender: ah...
Lucinda Lavender: the road trip...
Paradise Tennant: hiya luci so nice to see you :)
Lucinda Lavender: wish I had my map...
Korel Laloix: I like traveling light... so maybe on the Ninja..... but if I can't get Ru to go along with that, then will take the car.
Lucinda Lavender: thanks Para:)
Lucinda Lavender: nice to see you all too
Lucinda Lavender: what is at that park Korel?
Paradise Tennant: well car is not so bad either .. .. lots of room for stuff :) and a happier trip if everyone is comfortable
Korel Laloix: I just mostly like the wide open spaces.
Korel Laloix: Hiking and quiet.
Lucinda Lavender: rolling skies
Korel Laloix: I am far more comfortable surrounded by tall grasses than trees.
Korel Laloix: But that is just my preference.
Paradise Tennant: making me smile just thinking about how lovely that is going to be .. that big feeling of space
Lucinda Lavender: was listening to a song today...My miond is a clear blue sky:)
Lucinda Lavender: mind
stevenaia Michinaga: was thinking the view of the "big sky" at that very moment
Lucinda Lavender: song for kids
Raffila Millgrove: my first fav kid song was My Friend the Wind. in chicago the wind was so strong it would lift you off your feet when you were tiny. i still remember that sensation of being swept up.. and set down by wind.
Korel Laloix: Listening to some annoying music at the moment...
Paradise Tennant: yes I do Raf .. actually always made me grin .. loved it
Paradise Tennant: luci when is your big concert is it coming up ? or past ?
Raffila Millgrove: yes. there's nothing else.. i experienced like it.
Lucinda Lavender: it was sunday...went pretty well...my noticing was that in the concert I sense the performers speeading or singing louder due to emotion...a soprano can notice almost anything and be caught guard...it is a joke in the choisr community...the tenors came in in and it threw me off!
Lucinda Lavender: good to think about ahead
Lucinda Lavender: but too, it was very demanding fast music
Paradise Tennant: smiles
Raffila Millgrove: i recall that too. in performance suddenly the bass--we could hear them be louder when they were not in rehearsal. Sounds like you had a good experience.
Paradise Tennant: did they do a video ? would like to hear it
Lucinda Lavender: so today and all week I hear in my head...Babylon is thrown down...thrown down! just cd are made
Raffila Millgrove: please excuse me a few minute early.. rl .. calls. ty. take care all.

Paradise Tennant: then somehow my vision angle changed and I was looking at myself from the side
Paradise Tennant: and aI could see inside all he various bodies I had been from small child to now ..
Paradise Tennant: then those images faded and my body filled up with shiny little lights almost like stars .. all twinkling differnt colours ..
Paradise Tennant: was awestruck by how beautiful it seemed
