Question for Brazilian DUers (No, NOT the joke!!!): |
|
What's the full version of a Brazilian woman's name that's shortened to "Mel?" I think it's something like "Melhe" (maybe with a diacritical mark over the last e) but couldn't understand what she was saying when she spelled it out. Mrs R couldn't catch it either.
Thanks for any help you might be able to offer.

3. Still up, having a reasonably good night. Good stuff the last few days. |
|
My "make a technical drawing online" software went live in its first implementation yesterday.
Also yesterday, I talked to an old friend for the first time since about 1979, and found that we still have a lot to talk about, and that I know people who can be valuable to her in her career, and that she's going to haul herself and her S.O. up here for a visit this summer (and she called me "my dear" on the phone...just like someone else I know), and she said it was touching how I spoke and wrote about Mrs R with such affection (I guess it does show); in general, a wonderful 45 minutes on the phone.
And this morning I finished up the latest Project From Hell, and sent out the resultant $16,000.00 invoice.
A good two days.
You are doing well as well, I trust?

Just like someone else you know, huh? Who could....oh never mind! LOL...
Yes, indeed, your affection for your beautiful wife does show very well!
Well, I wish I could say I'd done $16K worth of work over my weekend....
But otherwise, my time has been very good....
I also had an excellent conversation recently .....
I am happy, these days.....and it shows.....:-)

5. Just so you know, it was a week and a half of work for the $16K. |
|
Wish I could do that in a weekend; it was just that with was finished and billed today.
And I'm glad to hear about that "excellent conversation." Cleared up some misunderstandings, did you? So nice to hear you sounding so bubbly and happy. Yes, it is.

6. Oh, a week and a half! |
|
Well, even so, that's good money, I'll warrant!
I'll have to talk to you one of these days......I'm unclear on what you're saying here about my excellent conversation!
Or is it too late now? Not for me......
Keep me informed.....

7. Just what you said last time we talked about having a friend who |
|
you sort of lost contact with, and didn't know why; I thought you might have cleared up that specific misunderstanding.
I'm always here to talk when you need to, though not right now because it's about time for the nightcap Vicodin and Elavil. It's been a good day and night for me, but reality always pokes its nose into the proceedings.
Still, it's good to hear you sounding so chipper.
