Social Chatting October-December 2019

sighs dismally It hardly even seems worthwhile starting this, and yet here I am, saying Welcome to October!!!

I think in January we should just make one for the whole year… x/

I agree. That is a good idea.

LOL That would be sad but probably more efficient. I just subscribed to the notifications for this thread though. That helped last time.

Aww, do we really have to take it quite that far yet? one thread for a whole year just sounds so…desperate…and miserable… we could just do half the year… XP XP

What are y'all doing this fall?

It does seem desperate. But desperate times call for desperate measures. xD

Learning and teaching ballroom and square dance. And working on culinary skills.

I suppose they do… x( xP xD

Cool! I like square dancing (not saying I'm very good at it). Ahh when I hear culinary I prick up my ears XD So working on culinary skills in general like anything and everything, or something specific?

I'm doing school and Bible Bee and coaching volleyball.

I think I qualify as being good at dancing. Mostly working on full meals and food presentation and healthiness and creativity.

Neat =)

@Eirene: We have guests over this month, and in November I might do NaNoWriMo again but I'm not sure yet.

@Rosie: Ooh, I've never tried square dancing before! We only ever did English Country….

Nice! I've heard a little bit about NaNoWriMo…never done it before. It sounds fun though! :)

Today and tomorrow I'm making a cake for my grandmother's 70th birthday party :D The last cakes are in the oven right now… doing my best to go simple 'cause I don't have a lot of time… not sure exactly how it's going to turn out yet, but I have a basic idea anyways. xD xP

Ahhhh we're doing so good!!! XP We've got almost 3 posts a day! XD XP

Square dancing is pretty easy. Ballroom is the tricky one.

I haven't made a cake in a long time. I guess that's what happens when we don't really celebrate birthdays that much

No! That is just the best comment I have ever heard!

Do you prefer OT or NT? I prefer NT for memorizing and OT for my favourite.

Ballroom dancing looks so fluid, I don't think I could manage it. X'-D

It just takes practice. Anyone could do it.

LOL Maybe. X'-D As long as there's not too much dyspraxia in the picture.

That might make learning it a little harder. But not impossible.

I am getting married on Saturday!

Congratulations!!!

Oh my word, wow!

I said congrats in another thread already, but there can't be too many congratulations!!!!!!!!! :D plus it will add another comment to this thread…X'P

Do you prefer OT or NT? I prefer NT for memorizing and OT for my favourite.

I'm not really sure…some parts of the NT are harder to memorize, but the same goes for OT. As for reading…I never can pick favorites…XP

So, are we allowed to randomly talk about stuff here or what? (Sorry if that sounded weird. I'm not always the best at making the "perfect post".)

Yep! Just talk about whatever.

Do you have any suggestions?

Who?

You.

Oh. Not in particular, but could probably think of something……how about: is anyone doing NaNoWriMo this November?

What's that?

Where you try to write a 50,000 word long story in a month.

I was going to do NaNoWriMo

"Was"?

I never knew about that, but I like writing simpler stories.

Ahhh, okay, gotcha. :-)

I write and then halfway through, run out of ideas

LOL That's how I am a lot of the time too.

I have several stories, okay, most of them, that are years old and not finished…

Happy November!?!?!

I have a lot of unfinished stories too, definitely.

@Eirene And a happy November to you too!

I have several stories, okay, most of them, that are years old and not finished…

Same.

So has anyone gotten snow yet?

No… =/

Same. Apparently it's been snowing a lot where I used to live, but so far none here.

A friend who lives in Missouri sent me a picture of snow. I think he was flaunting it in front of me. It's been unseasonably cold though.

My friend got to leave work early one day because of the snow. Here it's just rain and dust and those aren't enough to cancel work or anything over…

we got snow its all melting now tho….

What you mean, yet? xP jk The last time we got snow was 'the great snow of 2017' which I happened to miss by being in Oregon at the time, where it did not snow. And I quote "So let's all think back to Dec. 7, 2017, the day a record-breaking snowfall blanketed much of South Texas. San Antonio received 1-3 inches of snow, ranking it second to the 1985 snowstorm. Even Corpus Christi was blanketed with snow!" www.ksat.com/weather/2018/06/07/remember-when-it-snowed-in-san-antonio-that-was-already-6-months-ago/
