[19:59] [Owlhawk] ;Hello!
[20:00] <BonnieCyr> hey hey
[20:00] <BonnieCyr> hoping some folk pop in for our regional meeting here soon.
[20:01] [Owlhawk] lol
[20:02] [Owlhawk] it's also the advanced study chat night...which I'm getting ready to give up on
[20:07] <BonnieCyr> oh...
[20:07] <BonnieCyr> I didn't see that on the calendar
[20:07] <BonnieCyr> I'm sorry
[20:08] [Owlhawk] meh. it's not on the calendar. we can't change that apparently. we've been asked back in the winter for it and have tried to accomadate, and get low turn out. sou....
[20:08] <BonnieCyr> ...you can't change the calendar? why not?
[20:08] <BonnieCyr> (I did, and can.)
[20:09] [Owlhawk] hunh. I was told we don't have access to it. So no idea then. i don't even remember who told me that
[20:09] <BonnieCyr> I chose 3rd wednesdays for the regional chat but can move it to something else if needed.
[20:09] [Owlhawk] it's not like anyone shows up here anyway. Maybe check with Rovena for scheduling in future
[20:10] <BonnieCyr> I'll drop her a line. I just assumed if there was nothing on the calendar - that's how we always did it :] but I'll message her.

[20:10] <ADF_Awen> whoops.
[20:11] <ADF_Awen> but yeah, too - if someone needs help adjusting the calendar, it's easy.
[20:12] [Owlhawk] oh?
[20:13] <ADF_Awen> you should just be able to hit the plus in the lower right and open it/edit times or create an event as needed.

[20:13] <ADF_Awen> I messaged Rovena too.
[20:13] [Owlhawk] last I heard we needed a log in for it
[20:13] <GreyCatsidhe> Good evening all!
[20:13] <ADF_Awen> Most of my folk probably won't be on until 8:30 or so
[20:14] [Owlhawk] evening
[20:14] <ADF_Awen> Hi Grey!
[20:14] <ADF_Awen> Yeah, no...I mean, unless I'm still set somewhere (I used to run the chats for years)
[20:14] <ADF_Awen> but I don't think so (because it's my gmail not something else)
[20:14] <ADF_Awen> you should try it sometime and see what happens. I can always peek and try to help :)
[20:15] [Owlhawk] maybe i'll play with it this weekend and see what i can come up with. I haven't actuallyu looked at it myself yet.

[20:16] <BonnieCyr> I'll have to figure out why my other account doesn't auto-op too.
[20:16]  * BonnieCyr hrms.
[20:16] [Owlhawk] it'll keep you occupied
[20:16] [Owlhawk] for a bit
[20:17] <Jan> hi Bonnie :)
[20:17] *** Jan is now known as Guest12564
[20:17] *** Guest12564 is now known as [Skylark]
[20:17] <[Skylark]> apparently i'm not allowed to be Jan
[20:18] <GreyCatsidhe> No Jan for you!
[20:22] <GreyCatsidhe> So how is everyone tonight?
[20:22] <BonnieCyr> good
[20:23] <BonnieCyr> Apparently (I wasn't aware) the Advanced Studies crew also has this time slot....
[20:23] <BonnieCyr> sooooooo....
[20:23] <[Skylark]> what were you coming in for, Bonnie?
[20:23] <BonnieCyr> we'll have to figure out what to do.
[20:23] <GreyCatsidhe> Well I fit both categories.
[20:23] <BonnieCyr> I scheduled our Regional meeting, Jan.
[20:23] [Owlhawk] meh...honestly, don't worry about it. I haven't had anyone show up since the beginnning of march
[20:23] <BonnieCyr> because nothing was on the calendar.
[20:23] <[Skylark]> Jay, I'm here!
[20:23] <GreyCatsidhe> And, by the way Jan, I've been working on my studies even though I've fallen behind on Schoology.  Although I do keep checking to see where I should be.
[20:24] <[Skylark]> (mostly because I miss people)
[20:24] [Owlhawk] LET THE PARTY BEGIN!
[20:24] [Owlhawk] lol
[20:24]  * BonnieCyr snuggles Jan.
[20:24] <[Skylark]> Grey, yay!
[20:24] [Owlhawk] lucky bonnie....blondie would hurt me
[20:24] <BonnieCyr> I'll raise you the GSP :D
[20:24] <GreyCatsidhe> I'm nearly done with IE Mythology.  I'm just trying to find some more details for a couple essays.
[20:24] <BonnieCyr> well, rules are rules.
[20:24] <[Skylark]> studies will happen as they happen.  no need to stress about it
[20:25] <GreyCatsidhe> Totally.
[20:25] <[Skylark]> Snuggle the Bonnie!
[20:25] <BonnieCyr> Grey that's like me....I can't get any of my books right now because I'm house-sitting
[20:25] <BonnieCyr> ;) I will Jan. Don't you fret.
[20:25] <BonnieCyr> la la la
[20:25] <GreyCatsidhe> Ah, it's hard to be without our books.
[20:26] <GreyCatsidhe> Although IE Myth is stalled, Liturgy happens every day!  So I really do feel like I'm progressing just by living my Druidism. :)
[20:26] <BonnieCyr> Luke is a lucky guy right now.
[20:26] <BonnieCyr> though to be fair he is denied my vibrant presence so.
[20:26] <BonnieCyr> I guess it evens out.
[20:26] <BonnieCyr> (I kid)
[20:28] [Owlhawk] we understand that you miss your snuggly
[20:30] <BonnieCyr> it sucks. my parents better appreciate my noble sacrifice.
[20:30] [Owlhawk] lol
[20:30] <BonnieCyr> especially with the resulting allergies. /sigh
[20:31] [Owlhawk] cats are evil
[20:32] <GreyCatsidhe> Aww...  No...  *hugs her three cats*
[20:32] *** athansor (Mibbit@6ca5ecde.14055b30.199.19.imsk) has joined #adf
[20:32] <GreyCatsidhe> :P
[20:32] <BonnieCyr> Luke is very badly allergic
[20:32] <GreyCatsidhe> Poor guy.
[20:32] <BonnieCyr> and I have really bad asthma this year that has left me in shooting pain
[20:33] <GreyCatsidhe> That's awful.
[20:33] <BonnieCyr> so I'm on a new medication that just makes me zone out.
[20:33] [Owlhawk] blondie is down to three evil meowing demons from the depths of Tartarus! They are EVIL!!!!
[20:33] <GreyCatsidhe> One of my friend's husbands has horrible cat allergies too.  I always feel so bad when they come over...
[20:33] *** athansor is now known as Guest31245
[20:33] <GreyCatsidhe> LOL
[20:33] <GreyCatsidhe> Tartarus would be a great name for a cat...
[20:34] <BonnieCyr> Avery?
[20:34] <Guest31245> sup?
[20:34] <BonnieCyr> YAY!
[20:34] <BonnieCyr> *snuggle*
[20:34]  * Guest31245 hugs bonnie
[20:34] <GreyCatsidhe> So who else here is from the North East?
[20:34] <BonnieCyr> Avery is
[20:34] <BonnieCyr> I am
[20:34] <BonnieCyr> that's it for the moment.
[20:34] <GreyCatsidhe> Well I know you are, Bonnie.  :P  ;)
[20:34] <BonnieCyr> lol
[20:34] <GreyCatsidhe> Where are you from, Avery?
[20:35] <BonnieCyr> sorry I have literal brain right now.
[20:35] <Guest31245> Connecticut
[20:35] <GreyCatsidhe> It's totally fine.  :)
[20:35] <Guest31245> Charter Oak Grove
[20:35] <GreyCatsidhe> I'm from up-upstate NY.
[20:35] <GreyCatsidhe> Northern Rivers Protogrove.
[20:35] <Guest31245> north of Brooklyn, then?
[20:35] <GreyCatsidhe> I told my grovies about the chat.  Who knows if they'll show. :P
[20:35] <GreyCatsidhe> oh yeah.  I'm closer to Canada. ;)
[20:35] <Guest31245> on a good day, we all are.
[20:36] [Owlhawk] I'm not closer to canada....that would pretty much be impossible
[20:36] [Owlhawk] :D
[20:36] <BonnieCyr> lol
[20:36] <[Skylark]> ha!
[20:37] <[Skylark]> there's a pick-up line in there somewhere
[20:37] <BonnieCyr> Jan here is a Crane <3 and the former Heartland RD
[20:37] <[Skylark]> *waves*
[20:37] <BonnieCyr> huzzah one grovemate meeting my other :D
[20:37] <BonnieCyr> I hate "former" grovemate titles.
[20:37] <BonnieCyr> so I won't use them :]
[20:37] [Owlhawk] DON'T TELL ME WIF1111E
[20:38] [Owlhawk] we understand that you miss your snugglyw
[20:38] <BonnieCyr> o . O
[20:38] [Owlhawk] WIFE!!!!
[20:38] <BonnieCyr> what are you on about?
[20:38] [Owlhawk] finally got it to print!@
[20:38] [Owlhawk] the pick up line....
[20:38] <BonnieCyr> o.O
[20:38] <[Skylark]> No Crane flies alone!
[20:38] <BonnieCyr> carefully the gardener tends the trees <3
[20:39] <[Skylark]> one by one inspecting all the leaves <3
[20:40] <BonnieCyr> removing all the parts outgrown, encouraging new life to grow <3
[20:41] <[Skylark]> letting all the green parts see the light!
[20:41] <[Skylark]> hey, whatever happened to us having video chats?
[20:41] [Owlhawk] no idea
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> heh.
[20:42] <[Skylark]> my first introduction to ADF folks was through a video chat, and we ended up trading singing songs and stuff around
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> :D
[20:42] [Owlhawk] lol. i only got a video camera for the puter last fall
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> I was heavily involved until I moved in with Stephen
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> and then .. yeah
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> so.
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> I've been wanting to get back into the stoic chat night
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> or the wine along
[20:42] <BonnieCyr> but I just haven't had the time
[20:43] <[Skylark]> we have a wine-along chat?
[20:43] <GreyCatsidhe> Wine alone chat?  Sounds fun.
[20:43] <GreyCatsidhe> Right now I'm having tea, though.
[20:43] [Owlhawk] wine along? I think that would have to be fri or sat or i'd be in deep trouble driving a school bus the next day
[20:43] <GreyCatsidhe> Owlhawk, my husband is a school bus driver!
[20:43] [Owlhawk] I started in March.
[20:44] <GreyCatsidhe> He has to wake up so early, bless him.  He's been doing it for threeish years.
[20:44] [Owlhawk] one more course for my full license
[20:44] <GreyCatsidhe> Good for you!
[20:44] [Owlhawk] thank you
[20:44] <BonnieCyr> we used to, yeah.
[20:44] <BonnieCyr> me, michel and pam daw, kathleen pezza (that's how she and I met), Lesley
[20:44] <BonnieCyr> before lesley of course went into aa.
[20:45] <GreyCatsidhe> I used to love the video chats.  I didn't always participate in the video aspect, but it was nice to put faces to names.
[20:45] <BonnieCyr> we'd pick a text, or some kind of druidry-related topic, and bring wine, and come chat :]
[20:45] <BonnieCyr> we had a couple rituals too
[20:45] [Owlhawk] wifey says she'll have to supervise me for those.....
[20:45] [Owlhawk] and it sounds like a greeat idea
[20:45] [Owlhawk] \does mead count for wine?
[20:45] <[Skylark]> we could wine and video chat!
[20:46] <[Skylark]> and read ancient dramas!
[20:46] <[Skylark]> and sing!
[20:46] [Owlhawk] ***note to self, find clothing for chat nith***
[20:46] <[Skylark]> (when is festival....*whines*)
[20:47] [Owlhawk] for you end of may, for me beginning of june since I can't get wellsprings off
[20:47] <GreyCatsidhe> Ooooh...  North East Folks - did you see what Robb just posted?
[20:47] <BonnieCyr> I did, yea
[20:47] <GreyCatsidhe> That's exciting!
[20:47] <Guest31245> ??
[20:47] [Owlhawk] ?
[20:48] <Guest31245> what did he post?
[20:48] <GreyCatsidhe> He posted in the NE FB group about his grove possibly hosting a regional festival in the Albany area.
[20:48] <BonnieCyr> TotC wants to have a regional festival/con
[20:48] <GreyCatsidhe> Possibly in the wintertime.
[20:48] <BonnieCyr> Gretchen I think runs a comic shop/con group
[20:48] <BonnieCyr> so they have a lot of experience with it
[20:49] <GreyCatsidhe> The weather could be dodgy, but it would be a really nice diversion that time of year!
[20:49] <Guest31245> Call it Snowbound
[20:50] <GreyCatsidhe> Heehee
[20:50] <GreyCatsidhe> So make sure, if you're part of that group, that you express your interest!
[20:52] *** Guest31245 is now known as Avery
[20:54] [Owlhawk] I don't think i could safely make it out of ontario
[20:56] [Owlhawk] at that time of year
[20:57] <GreyCatsidhe> Yeah...  We'll see if we can get down through the Tug Hill region.  It gets rough.
[20:57] <GreyCatsidhe> You'd have to go right through that way, too.
[20:57] <GreyCatsidhe> I assume...
[20:59] [Owlhawk] no idea what that area is or where it is
[21:00] [Owlhawk] given our last two winters, i'm not sure I can safely get out of my county...
[21:01] <GreyCatsidhe> Seriously, it was rough.
[21:01] *** Avery (Mibbit@6ca5ecde.14055b30.199.19.imsk) has quit IRC [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
[21:01] <GreyCatsidhe> I normally enjoy winter, but it really got on my last nerve this year...
[21:01] [Owlhawk] 700 lbs of ice took out my deck roof
[21:01] <GreyCatsidhe> We used up all our snowdays at work.
[21:01] <[Skylark]> so did we
[21:01] <GreyCatsidhe> Wow.
[21:02] <[Skylark]> we're making up an extra week
[21:02] <GreyCatsidhe> We got bad ice the year before.
[21:02] [Owlhawk] we're trying to figure out how to rebild it
[21:02] <GreyCatsidhe> Oh that's a bummer, Skylark.
[21:02] <[Skylark]> yup
[21:02] <GreyCatsidhe> We might have been able to get to Wellspring if we hadn't used all our snowdays.  They usually give us an extra day that weekend, but not this time...
[21:03] <GreyCatsidhe> And it's just so much driving with a toddler.  Some people can do it, but I can't.
[21:04] <GreyCatsidhe> We would have been there sometime Saturday afternoon - probably missing many of the workshops - and then we'd have to leave Sunday so that we could recover for work on Tuesday.  I feel so old...  I can't just bounce back from a festival overnight.  LOL
[21:04] <[Skylark]> lol, i feel ya
[21:05] [Owlhawk] rebound?? that's two weeks later, right?
[21:06] <GreyCatsidhe> I am planning for Harvest Nights, though.  We're going to save, request time off in advance, whatever we need!
[21:07] [Owlhawk] I'm going to see about Midnight Flame . Wellsprings is out for e this year\
[21:08] <GreyCatsidhe> I had hoped to attend Three Rivers, but school is still in session and my husband (busdriver) has a difficult time getting time off, and it's all hands on deck with fieldtrips that time of year...
[21:08] <GreyCatsidhe> Between festivals and tests, I look forward to retirement. :P
[21:09] [Owlhawk] the friday before three rivers is a PD Day for us!
[21:10] <BonnieCyr> oh yay you're coming to Harvest Nights!
[21:10] <BonnieCyr> you'll have fun <3
[21:10] <[Skylark]> alright, g'night all
[21:11] <[Skylark]> have to sleep before a busy day of sitting and doing nothing while proctoring tests tomorrow
[21:11] <BonnieCyr> night Jan!
