Lucinda Lavender: really? what then?
Lucinda Lavender: I mean what now?
--BELL--

Lila Darkmatter: not sure - what are you both doing instead of TED?

Lila Darkmatter smiles
Lila Darkmatter: lazy luci, hah
Lucinda Lavender: and putting email into the trash

Lucinda Lavender: yes both of those are on Sunday evening here...and Elementary
Lucinda Lavender: on thursday
Lucinda Lavender: i like mysteries
Riddle Sideways: back, sorry
Lucinda Lavender: we are just sharing about things we do when not exploring TED
Lila Darkmatter: I wasn't that fond of mysteries before, but there is something about Sherlock that I really like... and oddly, Homeland, which really wouldn't have been my taste at some point
Lila Darkmatter: maybe nice to surprise oneself
Riddle Sideways: if to watch TV Mystery is the best
Lucinda Lavender: i have heard that reading mysteries is partly about finding the truth and Justice inside the story
Riddle Sideways: the new Sherlock is pretty good
Lila Darkmatter nods
Lucinda Lavender: yes...and I like Foyles War

Bleu Oleander: don't watch much
Riddle Sideways: have seen a couple blu people today that didn't let you now
Lucinda Lavender: I had watched a TED Talk on Connectomes this eve
Riddle Sideways: every once in a while there is that stop and veg in front of something entertaining
Lila Darkmatter: it may seem funny but I actually chose to find time to watch a few things on TV
Riddle Sideways: had a friend do a TED talk. And well, it was not very good. How to tell her that. didn't
Lila Darkmatter: smart, Riddle :)
Lucinda Lavender: I can understand that...
Bleu Oleander: :)
Lila Darkmatter: why wasn't it good? hard to fit content into 20 minutes?
Riddle Sideways: like making a time slot to watch superbowl
Riddle Sideways: even though it is Seatle
Lila Darkmatter will not be doing that :)
Bleu Oleander: me either :)
Lila Darkmatter: but I promised Storm to root for Broncos anyway
Lucinda Lavender: I have to say...that today in Seattle people are smiling and looking at each other alot...while we wait in lines, park cars, etc

Lucinda Lavender: yes...fond memory of seeing the play there
Lila Darkmatter: I heard from someone that people in SL play "primsionary" sometimes
Lucinda Lavender: can you say more?
Riddle Sideways: ?
Lila Darkmatter: which sounded fun.... like pictionary or charades...
Lucinda Lavender: how that works?
Lila Darkmatter: but with prims
Lila Darkmatter: building and people have to guess
Lucinda Lavender: that's cool!
Lila Darkmatter: it might be fun to play a bit more in unusual ways
Riddle Sideways: ha, would be good at that. NONE of the prims turn out like the intended
Lila Darkmatter: hahhaha
