@ariel-ashira Okay, goodbye. 🙂

@rochellaine I am on, but the family is waking up now so I think I will have to go.  I read about butter, but I don’t think they did that in the Middle Ages.

@ariel-ashira Haha, I can’t mind that you left without telling me yesterday since you can see I did the very same thing to @seekjustice last night! 😛

I see you two had quite the conversation this morning. 😉  Speaking of things they used to do for burns, I don’t know about the middle ages, but I know somewhere around the 1700s-1800s they would…[Read more]

@seekjustice Neat!  Seems like that would help when you are a writer. 😀

Okay, goodnight!  Tomorrow for you might be tonight for me. 🙂

@ariel-ashira

Awwww…really? *hugs*

@ariel-ashira

Oh, I should have known the aloe and honey ones. The rest are quite interesting.

Basically it means I take first aid classes every week and I have two first aid certificates.

Ah that’s me too. I often get up at 6ish to write before my family gets up. I’m probably going to go to bed now, but I’ll happily chat tomorrow 🙂

@seekjustice These are some things they used:

Honey
Flaxseed/Linseed Oil
Spirit of Turpentine
Aloe
Wine
Cold Water Compress
Lime Water

You are a first aid officer?  I should know what that means…

Well, I am here if you want to chat.  It is 7:00 in the morning here, and I am up before everyone else, so I think I can talk for a little while longer.

@seekjustice I cried when you said the same of me.

@jenwriter17

Sure! I’m in 😀

@ariel-ashira

It gives me warm fuzzy feelings being told I’m one of someone’s best friends 😀

@ariel-ashira I’m a first aid officer, so I’ve researched a lot of different injuries. I do know quite a bit about third degree burns and ouch, in medieval times??? That would be nasty. I don’t know what they did for burns in the Middles ages though. I’m curious to know now 😀

Its 9:45pm. I’m not usually on at this time (because I have a no te…[Read more]

@seekjustice I agree it is more common but way underused.  I don’t yet know which kind I will give my characters, though.  Have you researched burns?  I was yesterday.  My character suffers from some level three burns, and I was finding out what they did in the Middle Ages for burns.

What time is it there?

@ariel-ashira

Yeah, its incredibly interesting and also very much underused. I actually feel (I’m no expert) that the other type of amnesia doesn’t happen very much, whereas the not remembering things correctly afterward happens quite a lot. You can see it in dementia as well, people with dementia remembering their childhoods really well, but…[Read more]

@northerner @kate-flournoy I love SE!  A lot!  It has pretty much the same mission as KP.  I go over there all the time to haunt the forum and read the new articles which have been amazing.  Still, it saddens me that KP is not what is used to be and so many people have left.  My best friends though ( @alia @seekjustice @rochellaine @jenwriter17 esp…[Read more]

@seekjustice Yeah, I was researching the kind of amnesia where you can’t remember anything after the accident.  It appears to be more common than the kind where you forget everything before the injury.  I had not heard of it before though because it seems like movies and books use the other kind more.  I had also seen a movie recently where th…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Oh yeah, I’ve seen those sorts of videos. They can be quite fun!

I don’t know what version it was, it was part of a soundtrack though, rather than just a cover by someone.

I guess it does leave it hanging, he doesn’t receive any sort of guidance or change his mind in anyway.

I don’t know if Justice is a singing sort of person, but…[Read more]

@seekjustice I’ve been listening to a YouTube video which collects thirteen versions of “If I Loved You” from Carousel and asks “who sang it best?” but doesn’t include my favorite version… 😛

Yes, it’s from the late 40s, so it’s kinda too early for you.  But, which version did you listen to?  It’s been done in a lot of different styles.  It is…[Read more]

@rochellaine

What are you up to? Listening to anything good?

I like the lyrics of that song, by the way, though the style isn’t really my thing. Its a kind of sad song, isn’t it? I like the focus on stars and God though, which is probably why it reminded you of my book 😉

@notherner well, there are some of us that are staying here ’til we’re old and grey 😛 But, if you’re worried about being able to still grow as a writer here, I’d say these writers here will still give their advice and input. I still grow even though SE is launched. Yes, Daeus and Josiah and the staff-pros-people are at SE, so you’ll probably get…[Read more]

@seekjustice Well, I’ll (hopefully) be here for a while.  I’ve got a lot of work to do.
