my head is not entirely clear...
9:14 am

9:17 am
hokie carla

9:17 am
hurshy

yeah i never mark anymore but i am today, haven't got the time or the head for faffing about
9:18 am
Talk24hr

yeah i usually try not to until i get completely stuck
9:18 am
hurshy

i don't have to mark at all except on experts... if i've had enough sleep
9:19 am
hokie carla

i've definitely become too reliant on the marking. last time I tried one I paper, I had a hard time!
9:20 am
Talk24hr

i've never done any on paper ... but i'm pretty good without marking ... just when i finally get ready to throw the comp out the window lol

9:22 am
hokie carla

9:23 am
hurshy

SUDOKU MUST ONLY BE DONE ON A CLEAR HEAD
9:23 am
Talk24hr

:) thats a good rule
9:23 am
hokie carla

oh, yes. that's why I rarely try at 1 am!
9:25 am
hokie carla

well, maybe I should change that to that's why I rarely succeed at 1 am
9:25 am
parsec

lol =)
9:25 am
Talk24hr

haha me too
9:26 am
hokie carla

5!
9:26 am
hurshy

9:26 am
hokie carla

it's hard to keep a clear head when I keep chatting with you all!
9:27 am
hurshy

lol...i have a bump on the head, that's my new excuse.
9:27 am
hokie carla

9:32 am
Talk24hr

9:32 am
parsec

9:32 am
hurshy

9:34 am
parsec

I don't know...I like to remember things that hurt me so I can avoid them next time.
9:34 am
Talk24hr

17
9:34 am
Talk24hr

lol i agree with parsec
9:35 am
hurshy

in this case... i already knew whacking my head on a counter (or whatever it was) would hurt, i just can't help being a klutz
9:35 am
parsec

ah. well that's a little different. =)
9:35 am
parsec
