moonshineshadow: I am doing ok. A bit tired, there was a lot to do at work today. And with hint of panic I realised that it is only a bit more than a week before the conference I am going to. I need to get approvement for my poster from my Prof. and get it printed. And approvement for the paper I wrote today (deadline Monday)... and directly after the conference are my holidays, so I need to start preparing everything I need for that before next week Friday.

EndreWhiteMane: 'approval', approvement is an obsolete word. ;)
You are right. Thinking before writing would be a good idea to avoid my German habits slipping in ;-)

Not picking on you just happened to know that one. ;)
Is approvement still used in German?

Not really, what I meant is that many nouns in German ending with "ung" are ending with "ment" in English. And when I am tired I sometimes have the habit of just make this transition.
zustimmen = to approve
Zustimmung = approvement
I should have just taken a moment to think before posting to remember the correct word :D
*hug*

An American threatening to yell at someone for not using English correctly. Now I have heard it all. :-)

If you yell at me I'll tell owl and she'll do even worse things to you than the mankini (if that is even possible) :P

Maybe she could make him wear an even smaller mankini, one that would nearly garrotte him. That should make him be nice to you. :-)

Hello everyone, hope you're all doing well.

Today's pic has a double meaning - it also expresses my hope that with Friday and the weekend, the threads about befriending people will slow down and eventually die out.


I probably should have waited before posting, I see DD is online. :-P

That's not very nice. I knew you were mean, so I guess I made the right choice putting you on the bad guys team with Owl. :-)

Good day, Hyper! How are you, I hope you are well?

*big hug for the mean Hyper*

You know one reason why Hyper may be avoiding you is your constant hugging :P

Saying that will ensure more hugging from DD, I'm sure.

Edit: Oh! I see what you did there.

ddickinson: Just don't go outside. Once we are all here we can bar the door and we shall all be safe held up inside this thread. :-)
*desperately pounding on the door*

Let me in! Let me in! Don't bar the door yet! I'll be good!! Please!!
...
Good day everyone. Hope everyone is ok or better.
