Hello, molly. I'm doing well. The wind has momentarily settled a bit. It was howling like a hyena for hours.

hello Sir

glad You were able to make it home safely

the weather cleared here & there is a large, bright, warmish object in the sky

Does a hyena howl...? Maybe I should say howling like a coyote.

I'm sure hyenas howl too... Don't all canines howl? Also, it's worth it for the alliteration.

Ah, there you are, thank you, Thorn.

Any time. Also, I think a laughing wind would be an excellent start to a horror movie. Or novel, for that matter. lol

Finally got home. Winds are about 50mph, blowing snow. Electricity off and on. Good to be where I am for the rest of the day. 

Unfortunate, about your electricity, but good you’re home safe and sound, Mac.

Picked sean up on the way, so he's safe and sound, too. 

 

Good to hear as well.

Michael is teasing me about my crap memory. 

[Mikiesboy]

LOL don't be sad A..  He remembers everything ... we watch this show called the Chase. a general knowledge quiz show.. He gets nearly everything right. But there was something about an actor and so He said to me.. you remember that show, he was in that.  i am just looking at Him.. until He said, 'you have no idea what i'm talking about do you?"    by now i'm laughing.. and said nope.. He is like OMG.. we just watched it.. .. oh god.. i think my brain has a slow leak..LOL

Memory is a tricky thing. I'm good at quiz shows and trivia and stuff, but trying to remember what I just said and who I said it to, or what was about to say, or what someone just told me... Paul will be like, I told you this an hour ago and I have no memory of this whatsoever. Lol

it's funny how Phil remembers different things than i do, like i can remember who has to be where and when but He remembers what our old addresses were, when we lived there, who played for the Broncos decades ago

yes, memory is tricky

I don't forget people and places, but I forget basic words, which aggravates me. I can be in the middle of a conversation describing something, and suddenly I lose the ability to call up basic vocabulary. How the hell does that happen?

I do that, too. There's a lot of 'thingie' and 'whachamacall' going around for me. When I can't remember it in either English or Norwegian, I get really frustrated, lol

i don't know, Sir.  it's frustrating though .. i quite often find myself saying.. you know .. that..them...LOL

[Thorn Wilde]

Lol! I was just looking out the window and said, 'Wow, it's misty out there!' and Paul stared at me and said, 'That's what I said literally five minutes ago.'

It happens to me all the time, especially in the heat of a great conversation.

I completely forgot the words limits of integration talking with my colleague in Physics yesterday. Ugh.

I completely forgot the word sink today. 'That thing, that you wash dishes in.'

Yes. Limits of integration help you find the center of mass of the sink we wash the dishes in. Of course, they all kind of come out as thingies don’t they?

Where would the centre of mass be in a rectangular metal basin? Is it right in the centre at the bottom? One uses limits of integration to find out the exact point, I assume? Asking for a friend.

@MacGreg Sir, @Parker Owens, @Thorn Wilde @Kitt and @Mikiesboy

i cannot tell Y/you all how much i loved hearing this

"brain fog" is a symptom of my auto-immune thing, and the loss of words scares the hell out of me

so when it happens, i sometimes panic
