BluesKajHiyas all11:43
jinkHi BluesKaj.  How've you been?12:12
BluesKajHi jink coping as well I can, doing ok ...how are you?12:13
jinkFine, mostly.  Close to another depression, I think.  Things feel wrongish.  That mostly means it's about to hit me within 2 months.  But it's been like that all my life, so I'm not really complaining (although that might sound weird to some).12:18
jinkBluesKaj: How are the kids?12:18
BluesKajthey're doing ok too12:19
jinkOh, lunch break in 10 minutes, btw, so if I'm gone all of a sudden, that'll be why.12:19
* BluesKaj nods12:20
ducassehi BluesKaj - wb :)12:20
jinkIt's weird, though.  I remember my dad dying (15 years ago) and my brother and I are "ok", I guess.  My mom's been alone ever since, which is fine, but weird after having spent most of your lives together.12:21
BluesKaj hey ducasse, thanks , how's things ?12:21
jink(For reference, I'm 40.)12:21
ducassegood here, but cold12:22

ducasseBashing-om: maybe not, but i'm not entirely convinced that smoking is worth the immense cost anymore20:01
Bashing-omducasse: I tell ya like I feel .. No ! smoking is not worth the cost in so many ways . Smoking is a pacifier ... just how much of a baby am I ?20:03
