Korel Laloix: heya
Lucinda Lavender: good for you...Korel it is so nice to have help with that sort of thing
Korel Laloix: So I have some ideas.. but I have to see teh total plan first.
Lucinda Lavender: right
Korel Laloix: Well.. it is the right thing to do I think.
Lucinda Lavender: we are talking of weddings para
Korel Laloix: And leaving it all up to her momther would be a disaster.
Lucinda Lavender: ah
Korel Laloix: The woman is one of those that is so smart she is increadibly dumb.
Paradise Tennant: smiles ahh weddings are just the best parites
Lucinda Lavender: :))
Lucinda Lavender: how do you think that works Korel?
Lucinda Lavender: maybe that is like me...
Korel Laloix: This one will be big as well... and with very little budget.... it should be fun instead of formal.
Lucinda Lavender: no...probably not
Korel Laloix: How what works?
Lucinda Lavender: smart and dumb intermixed
Korel Laloix: Just lots of book smarts and no common sense or ability to organize.
Lucinda Lavender: ah...I get it
Korel Laloix: I am sort of the other direction.. I am not that book smart but am very organized.
Lucinda Lavender: It is helpful with school work I bet
Lucinda Lavender: organization
Korel Laloix: Exactly..
Korel Laloix: I grew up being told I was stupid.. and believed it for a long time.
Korel Laloix: But when I figured out how to organize my life... things changed for sure.
Lucinda Lavender: awww good for you
Korel Laloix: I think organization is its own sort of inteligence.
Lucinda Lavender: yes!
Korel Laloix: So anyway.. it gets me invited into a lot of weddings... grins
Lucinda Lavender: smiles
Lucinda Lavender: Paradise...how are you tonight?
Lucinda Lavender: the pause approaches
Lucinda Lavender: may it be peaceful for all
--BELL--
Korel Laloix: Good for getting some fake chocolate milk and a poptart...yummy
Paradise Tennant: sorry having technical difficulties one sec
Korel Laloix: OH OK.
Lucinda Lavender: my face seems to be gray tonight
Korel Laloix: For once, everyone is rezzed for me.
Lucinda Lavender: as I said to Korel earlier...I may have to leave but will post the log
Korel Laloix: No worries.. smiles
Korel Laloix: I am out soon as well.
Korel Laloix: After my snack.
Lucinda Lavender: this morning we talked about the pause...how do you all approach it?
Korel Laloix: I don't really.. I use it for getting things done.
Lucinda Lavender: :)
Korel Laloix: But I respect others that want to use it for its intended purpose.
Lucinda Lavender: sometimes I do that too
Lucinda Lavender: get up and open a curtain etc
Lucinda Lavender: get coffee
Lucinda Lavender: sometimes I just get quiet
Paradise Tennant: ahh ok I am awake and fully connected :)))
Korel Laloix: SL is often just in the background for me.
Lucinda Lavender: good to hear!
Korel Laloix: And I will read back a few mins at a time.
Paradise Tennant: smiles
Lucinda Lavender: :)

Lucinda Lavender: we are a foursome
Santoshima Resident: { talking about pauses? }
Lucinda Lavender: yes exactly
Santoshima Resident: pls continue
Korel Laloix: I think pauses are very usefulll in the right situation.
Korel Laloix: B ut also sometimes they break a flow and am not sure that is teh best thing.
Paradise Tennant: you know they give you time to think to really think about what you are going to say next
Santoshima Resident: maybe
Lucinda Lavender: yes...
Lucinda Lavender: I am slower to figure out what I want to say on a deeper level
Paradise Tennant: nods and listens deeply :)))
Korel Laloix smiles
Korel Laloix: They are good for forming thoughts as well when I am really engaged in a chat.
Lucinda Lavender: I rarely have complicated things to say
Korel Laloix: For me it is not about complication.. but making sure my English is what I want it to be.
Korel Laloix: When we get to certain topics at the edge of my language.
Lucinda Lavender: I had never noticed you have an edge
--BELL--
Paradise Tennant: smiles alwasy sees korel as wonderfulyy deep and smooth :))
Paradise Tennant: sorry bell
Korel Laloix: Because I use the pauses to sort things out.. smiles.. There are definitely holes in my English where I have not put together verbal thoughts before that PaB takes me to.
Lucinda Lavender: Same for me I think
Lucinda Lavender: I am watching my husband measure the specific gravity of the beer he will bottle
Korel Laloix: That sounds...... teedious.
Korel Laloix smiles
Paradise Tennant: wow
Lucinda Lavender: things unfold in the computer , in the room I am in and in my head
Paradise Tennant: is drinking beer .. looks atit and wonders about its gravity
Korel Laloix: Good for engaging your experience at a lot of levelrs.
Lucinda Lavender: this one is called The Innkeeper
Lucinda Lavender: lots of paraphenalia
Santoshima Resident: not unlike what one might do looking at anything ... what is it's gravity, weight, mass ... how am i gotta lift that large stone over there
Lucinda Lavender: getting ready for wedding
Santoshima Resident: how am i gonna heave that large tankard of beer?
Korel Laloix: Funny.. the way I took your comment at first Lucinda was that this husband of yours was an inkeeper... smiles
Korel Laloix: SO thought about what other ones you have...
Korel Laloix: But then I realized ou meant the bear... grins
