*** Now talking in #TOTGM
<GMonkey> Hey!
*** BabyRain sets mode: +o GMonkey
<GMonkey> Thank you.
<BabyRain> Hey!
<BabyRain> No problem. :)
<GMonkey> Boy, do I hate all this rushing about.
<BabyRain> So, is it just us tonight?
<GMonkey> Um, maybe Bill will show up.
<BabyRain> I bet!  When did you get home?
<GMonkey> 5:30.
<GMonkey> Then, I had to listen to my phone messages, turn on 
the PC and hope I'd get a good connection.
<BabyRain> Good heavens!  Busy girl!
<GMonkey> Not to mention putting on my loungewear and going to 
the LGR. :)
<GMonkey> Still haven't grabbed anything for dinner.
<BabyRain> Ah. :)
<BabyRain> I made comfort food.
<GMonkey> Comfort food?
*** PepsiDog (babyrain@stjhts17c06.nbnet.nb.ca) has joined 
#TOTGM
<PepsiDog> NBNTEL WEENIES!
<GMonkey> Oh no!
<PepsiDog> Argh.
*** GMonkey sets mode: +o PepsiDog
-> [BabyRain] PING
*** BabyRain was kicked by PepsiDog (PepsiDog)
-> [PepsiDog] PING
<GMonkey> Hey, it's a new month.  They shouldn't be treating 
you like this.
<PepsiDog> I know. (sniff)
<PepsiDog> I'm getting picked on all the way around. :(
<GMonkey> Would you mind if I dash downstairs and get some food 
really quickly?
<PepsiDog> No, go ahead.  I have to restart a download that I 
just lost. :(
<GMonkey> Thanks.  brb
<GMonkey> You want anything? :)
<PepsiDog> I want my name back. :)
*** PepsiDog is now known as BabyRain
<BabyRain> Thank you. :)
<GMonkey> back
<GMonkey> Gee, what happens if nobody else shows up tonight?
<BabyRain> I don't know.
<BabyRain> Can't very well discuss changing the chat schedule
<BabyRain> I'll be crushed.
<GMonkey> Well, I definitely think we should now hold the chats 
only twice a month.
<BabyRain> I agree.
<GMonkey> I'll tell people about the decision on the board and 
on the chat log page.
<BabyRain> End of discussion.
<BabyRain> See what I mean? :)
<GMonkey> Here, here. :)
<BabyRain> First Tuesday, third Saturday?
<GMonkey> Yep.  So the next chat would be March 15.
<BabyRain> My writers' group is the second and fourth Sats, so 
..
<GMonkey> Oooo, beware the ides of March. :)
<GMonkey> No more conflict, eh?
<BabyRain> Et tu, Monké?
<BabyRain> No more conflict.
<BabyRain> By the way, you've got that "eh?" down pat. :)
<GMonkey> Well, that is my name, isn't it? :)
<BabyRain> :)
<GMonkey> Would you like a pickle? :)
<BabyRain> No thank you.  I want a baby hamster.'
* BabyRain sheds a tear for her dear departed Isabella
<GMonkey> I'm sorry.  I don't have one of those handy.
<BabyRain> That's okay.  I'd be worried if you did, since 
you're eating.
<GMonkey> Just eating dead steer. :)
<BabyRain> No prairie oysters, then.
<GMonkey> Ah, no.
<BabyRain> :)
<GMonkey> Well, how was your day?
<BabyRain> My sister-in-law (from out west) keeps threatening 
me with prairie oysters.
<BabyRain> My day was pretty good, from what I remember of it.
<GMonkey> Why?
<BabyRain> She keeps saying she'll cook them some night I'm 
over for supper and feed them to me without telling me what 
they are.
<BabyRain> The thought is revolting.
<GMonkey> What exactly *are* prairie oysters?
<BabyRain> Bull testicles.
* GMonkey doesn't feel like finishing her steak sandwich now
<BabyRain> Oops.  Sorry. :(
<GMonkey> I'll survive. :)
<BabyRain> But at least Dawna didn't make your sandwich, so 
you're safe. :)
<GMonkey> So let's appreciate the Gold Monkey. :)
<BabyRain> I appreciate the monkey every day.
<GMonkey> I know you do. :)
<GMonkey> You just love that little fella. :)
* BabyRain implores GMonkey to help her SAVE THE MONKEY!!!
<BabyRain> So no LaLa?
<GMonkey> I'll use all of my Monkey powers to do so.
<GMonkey> No LaLa. :(
<GMonkey> No nobody. :( :(
<BabyRain> I'm here.
<GMonkey> Well, no nobody else. :)
* BabyRain is sad that MonkeyWoman thinks she's a nobody.
<GMonkey> Besides, you're always here.  You're just attached to 
the chat.
<GMonkey> BabyRain=MonkeyChat
<BabyRain> Oh.  So you take me for granted, is what you're 
saying. ;)
* BabyRain plays with her monkey.
<GMonkey> Yep.  Just like Jake always took Sarah for granted. 
:)
<BabyRain> I'd settle if Jake took me at all. :)
<GMonkey> Fooled around with every bimbo in the tropics and 
knew she'd still be waiting for him.
<BabyRain> Koji was a bimbo?
<GMonkey> Well, if you were within a 100 mile radius of the 
Chick Magnet, he'd take ya. :)
<GMonkey> Koji was a powerful bimbo. :)
<BabyRain> With great hair.
<GMonkey> Very important for a powerful bimbo. :)
<BabyRain> Absolutely. :)
<GMonkey> So...
<BabyRain> I hope Bill shows.
<GMonkey> I somebody shows.
<GMonkey> Besides you, of course. :)
<BabyRain> You and I are so used to communicating via email 
that this real-time thing is hard.
<GMonkey> I know.  Plus we have to keep this "safe" for the 
log.
<GMonkey> And I'm cold!!
*** Billprest (Billpresto@173-139-220.ipt.aol.com) has joined 
#totgm
<BabyRain> You mean we can't talk about the Gold Monkey 
Liberation Front?
<BabyRain> BILL!
<GMonkey> Yeah!  Bill!!!
*** GMonkey sets mode: +o Billprest
<Billprest> Hello folks!
-> [Billprest] PING
<BabyRain> Oh, Bill.  Thank God you're HERE!
<GMonkey> We were all alone and frightened.
<BabyRain> It was such a big bad scary world, Bill.
*** Billprest has quit IRC (trapdoor.ca.us.dal.net 
caris.ca.us.dal.net)
<BabyRain> Was it something we said?
<GMonkey> NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!1
<GMonkey> Sigh.  I think this is a sign.
<BabyRain> Me too.
<GMonkey> No more twice a week MonkeyChats.
<BabyRain> Too bad SC is so busy.  I'd love to chat with him.
<GMonkey> Well, he should be wrapped up with the season 
shortly.
<GMonkey> Maybe, if he doesn't have any other projects waiting, 
he'll come by and chat.
<BabyRain> Probably has other stuff lined up, though, I would 
think.
<GMonkey> Hmmm...maybe we should ask him.
<GMonkey> SC, can you come out and play? :)
*** Billprest (Billpresto@173-139-220.ipt.aol.com) has joined 
#TOTGM
*** BabyRain sets mode: +o Billprest
<BabyRain> Bill?
<GMonkey> Do you really mean it this time, Bill? :)
* BabyRain tiptoes around Bill, trying not to let him get away.
-> [Billprest] PING
<GMonkey> I think we're gonna lose him again. :(
<BabyRain> Now even the people on chat don't read us. :(
<GMonkey> No sense wasting my web space with just us chatting.
<BabyRain> Give it til half past.
<GMonkey> I will.
<BabyRain> Then if no one shows I'm going to call Doug and go 
adopt a hamster.
<GMonkey> Maybe I'll just leave the room open just in case 
someone else comes by.
<GMonkey> But then I'll let them know that we're closed.
<Billprest> Yes?
<Billprest> Where'd you go?
<GMonkey> Poor Bill.
<BabyRain> Poor Bill. :(
<BabyRain> I bet he reads the chat logs.
<BabyRain> I'm trying a DCC.
<GMonkey> Well, he'll be confused trying to read this one.
<GMonkey> Just got his ping reply.  164 secs.
<Billprest> Okay, let me try again.  What's this distressing 
rumor I hear that the Tuesday night chat is going to become 
monthly instead of weekly?
<BabyRain> Uh-oh. :)
<Billprest> Girls...Girls...You there?
<GMonkey> It's true, Bill.  As you can see, there's really no 
sense in holding a chat every week.
*** cricketts (Barbiester@ppp_11.aonline.com) has joined #TOTGM
<GMonkey> Oh, you can't see.
<GMonkey> Hey, Barbie.
<Billprest> We're getting a hamster in a week.
<cricketts> hey all..
<BabyRain> Hi, Barbie.
<cricketts> hi BR :)
<BabyRain> Bill is lagged in a big way.
<cricketts> <<--  don't know how long I can stay.. should be in 
bed ..fighting a bad cold
<BabyRain> Poor Bill.
<BabyRain> We don't know how long we're staying either.  I have 
a cold, too, and there's been a death in my family.
*** Billprest (Billpresto@173-139-220.ipt.aol.com) has left 
#totgm
<cricketts> oh, BR.. I'm so sorry
<BabyRain> It's okay.  It was my hamster.
<BabyRain> I'll be okay. :)
<cricketts> Still a tragic loss...
<GMonkey> As soon as she buys a baby hamster.
<cricketts> LOL
<BabyRain> Not true, GM.
<GMonkey> Well, a week for mourning while playing with the baby 
hamster.
<cricketts> we understand, BR
*** Billprest (Billpresto@152.173.139.220) has joined #totgm
<cricketts> anyone hear from Jeff?
<BabyRain> Bill?
<GMonkey> Nothing, Barbie.
<cricketts> {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{silence}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}]
<cricketts> guess not
<GMonkey> Everyone's been quiet lately.
<BabyRain> Jake's got fleas again, I think.
<Billprest> Hello....
-> [Billprest] PING
<GMonkey> Hi, Bill.
<cricketts> hi Bill
*** Billprest has quit IRC (Killed (uncc.nc.us.dal.net 
(toronto.on.ca.dal.net[198.133.36.153] Self collision)))
<BabyRain> I pinged Bill as soon as he came on and I still 
don't have a reply
<BabyRain> That had to hurt. :(
<GMonkey> I just commited seppuku.
<cricketts> my screen says he had a self collision
<cricketts> sounds like IRC has its own set of tortures 
available!
<BabyRain> Poor Bill.
<BabyRain> He tried so hard, too.
<GMonkey> Poor MonkeyChat.
<cricketts> sounds like spontaneous combustion to me
<BabyRain> Maybe Monkeychat is being cancelled by the IRC 
weenies.
<cricketts> dunno
<GMonkey> Wouldn't put it past them!
<cricketts> didn't know THEY were in charge
<GMonkey> Weenies are everywhere!!!
<BabyRain> THEY are everywhere.
<cricketts> oic
<GMonkey> How long should we wait before we put this 
MonkeyFarce to an end?
<cricketts> sorry to poop out, but I'd better go lie down 
again...
<BabyRain> Bye, Barbie.
<BabyRain> Get better.
<GMonkey> That's okay, Barbie.  We'll probably be leaving soon 
ourselves.
<cricketts> aloha, all, and mahalo (thank you)

<cricketts> bye again
*** cricketts (Barbiester@ppp_11.aonline.com) has left #TOTGM
<GMonkey> Bye, Barbie.
<GMonkey> Bill?
<GMonkey> I don't think he's really there.
<BabyRain> Can you email him, Pat?
<GMonkey> And tell him what?
<BabyRain> About the chat schedule and that we're closing early 
tonight?
<GMonkey> Okey dokey.
<GMonkey> So when do you wanna close up?
<BabyRain> three minutes
<Billprest> Anyone here?
<GMonkey> Otay.
<BabyRain> Poor Bill.
<GMonkey> Sigh.  I'll go e-mail Bill.
<BabyRain> Thanks.
*** Billprest has quit IRC (Leaving)
<BabyRain> Bill, you're lagging.
<GMonkey> So, should we call it a night?
<BabyRain> Bill, you're gone. :(
*** GMonkey changes topic to "Closed for business"
<BabyRain> Yeah, Pat, I think so.  I'm practically unconscious 
here anyway.
*** Billprest (Billpresto@173-139-220.ipt.aol.com) has joined 
#totgm
<BabyRain> Too many OTC cold drugs.
<GMonkey> Okay, I'll talk to you later then.
<Billprest> Patricia, Karen?
<GMonkey> Like tomorrow.
<GMonkey> We're going, Bill.
<GMonkey> The chat is dead.
-> [Billprest] PING
<Billprest> Hey, hey!
<BabyRain> Okay, Pat.
<Billprest> Rats.  The line is dead.
<GMonkey> Go check my e-mail, Bill.
<BabyRain> This is sad.  I feel like we're leaving a fallen 
soldier.
<BabyRain> I can't get him on DCC.
<GMonkey> he just DCC'd me.
<GMonkey> No response though.
<BabyRain> He did?
<GMonkey> I think he's gone.
-> [Billprest] PING
<BabyRain> Well, on that note ...
*** Billprest has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* BabyRain holds out her hand to be shaken
<GMonkey> Knew that was gonna happen.
* GMonkey shakes BR's hand.
<GMonkey> Well, they were good while they lasted.
<BabyRain> Au revoir, mon amie.
<GMonkey> Toodles.
<BabyRain> See you on the 15th, at 1 pm EST?
<GMonkey> Yep, that's the plan.
<GMonkey> I'll stay here just in case anybody else stops by.
<BabyRain> I'll be there with bells on.
<GMonkey> I still have to go through my e-mail and such.
<BabyRain> How long are you staying?
<GMonkey> Not long.
<GMonkey> I just people to see the Closed for Business.
<GMonkey> Or do you think they'll get the idea when they find 
the room empty?
<BabyRain> Okay.  Well, I'll say bye now on the off-cchance I 
can call Doug and get to the pet store before it closes.
<GMonkey> Good luck.
<BabyRain> Thanks.
<BabyRain> Bye!
