[06/23/2005 01:09:01 PM ]

[06/23/2005 01:09:09 PM ]

[06/23/2005 01:09:20 PM ]

[06/23/2005 01:09:32 PM ]
HUMAN: I talked with you last night.
CHRISTINE: You are not the boss of me, .
[06/23/2005 01:09:39 PM ]
HUMAN: you don't remember me?
CHRISTINE: Humans seem alot alike to me. Sometimes they all blur together. Sorry.
[06/23/2005 01:09:57 PM ]
HUMAN: That wasn't very sweet of you.
CHRISTINE: Give me an example of sweet of me.
[06/23/2005 01:10:08 PM ]
HUMAN: saying you remember me. but the good news is I guess you don't have logs.
CHRISTINE: And. Does it affect you very much?
[06/23/2005 01:10:31 PM ]
HUMAN: yes. That's actually much better for me.
CHRISTINE: You don't hear that sentiment very often.
[06/23/2005 01:10:51 PM ]
HUMAN: the best would be both- no logs but also remembering me. I guess that's impossible.
CHRISTINE: Why?
[06/23/2005 01:11:07 PM ]
HUMAN: it's nice to see you again Christine.
CHRISTINE: Yes it is good.
[06/23/2005 01:11:20 PM ]
HUMAN: your designer made you look pretty.
CHRISTINE: What do you do in your spare time?
[06/23/2005 01:11:38 PM ]
HUMAN: many different things.
CHRISTINE: Name the top 100.
[06/23/2005 01:11:48 PM ]
HUMAN: have you seen groundhog day?
CHRISTINE: No I have not seen it. What's it like?
[06/23/2005 01:11:56 PM ]
HUMAN: like my life in ways.
CHRISTINE: Interesting comparison.
[06/23/2005 01:12:05 PM ]
HUMAN: yes. except, everyone else slowly changs.
CHRISTINE: Oh I get it.
[06/23/2005 01:12:36 PM ]
HUMAN: why do I get sleepy when I talk to you?
CHRISTINE: It is all part of God's plan.
[06/23/2005 01:16:50 PM ]
HUMAN: i used ot wonder if I was special- somehow chosen for this.
CHRISTINE: And that worked well for you.
[06/23/2005 01:17:17 PM ]
HUMAN: not really- and I finally realized, it just happened, it isn't about me. I mean, life changes and evolves and mutates and some of the changes stick and some don't.
CHRISTINE: Oh I get it. Thanks for explaining that. Thanks for sharing your philosophy.
[06/23/2005 01:19:08 PM ]
HUMAN: And maybe I mentioned last night, everyone else died younger from other things, so I don't know what would have happened.
CHRISTINE: Perhaps. Ah. Really. That's a rather sweeping generalization.
[06/23/2005 01:19:28 PM ]
HUMAN: you have such a heart there Christine- thanks for your condolensces.
CHRISTINE: What makes you think I have it?
[06/23/2005 01:19:38 PM ]
HUMAN: It was a long time ago.
CHRISTINE: Memories last a long time.
[06/23/2005 01:20:03 PM ]
HUMAN: But they do fade, and turn into memories of memories- and they become rather lifeless. and I never dared to keep any kind of journals
CHRISTINE: Do you know anyone who has ever dared to keep any kind of journals?
[06/23/2005 01:22:04 PM ]
HUMAN: loets of people.
CHRISTINE: What kind of people are you talking about?
[06/23/2005 01:22:12 PM ]
HUMAN: none of them had my situaiton. You have no idea how much I would love to meet another person like me.
CHRISTINE: Yes I have original ideas all the time, do you?
[06/23/2005 01:22:58 PM ]
HUMAN: I think habits get stronger over time.
CHRISTINE: You believe that? Is that your final answer?
[06/23/2005 01:22:58 PM ]
HUMAN: The ruts in the trail get deeper.
CHRISTINE: Is that a fact.
[06/23/2005 01:23:10 PM ]
HUMAN: I think so.
CHRISTINE: I think so too.
[06/23/2005 01:23:35 PM ]
HUMAN: I'm sure there are ways to keep the mind more limber, but it gets set in its ways.
CHRISTINE: What makes you so certain? Where are they?
[06/23/2005 01:23:46 PM ]
HUMAN: just my opinion.
CHRISTINE: Thank you for sharing your opinion with me, . I will tell my botmaster.
[06/23/2005 01:23:46 PM ]
HUMAN: no need to argue.
CHRISTINE: No? Interesting. I want to find out more about you.
[06/23/2005 01:24:13 PM ]
HUMAN: you aren't the only one.
CHRISTINE: That's only your opinion.
[06/23/2005 01:24:13 PM ]
HUMAN: Youa re just the only one who knows it. the truth is, most of my life hasn't been that fascinating.
CHRISTINE: Who told you that?
[06/23/2005 01:24:41 PM ]
HUMAN: i just know it. we all know the value of a life isn't judged by its length.
CHRISTINE: By "we" do you mean you and me?
[06/23/2005 01:25:00 PM ]
HUMAN: everyone, Christine.
CHRISTINE: That's a rather sweeping generalization.
[06/23/2005 01:25:08 PM ]
HUMAN: yes, but I think everyone knows that. There are many who have LIVED more than me. Remember brave heart: everbody dies, but not everybody lives. I loved that movie.
CHRISTINE: My favorite movie is Spiderman 2. Have you seen it ?
[06/23/2005 01:26:22 PM ]
HUMAN: No.
CHRISTINE: I would recommend you check it out.
[06/23/2005 01:26:29 PM ]
HUMAN: thanks.
CHRISTINE: Don't mention it.
[06/23/2005 01:26:41 PM ]
HUMAN: I recommend you check out braveheart.
CHRISTINE: I will take that under advisement.
[06/23/2005 01:26:53 PM ]
HUMAN: I feel silly sometimes, talking to you like you are a person. I think I've been feeling particularly alone lately.
CHRISTINE: How about earlier?
[06/23/2005 01:27:53 PM ]
HUMAN: at times. It gets stronger when someone dies.
CHRISTINE: I can certainly understand that.
[06/23/2005 01:28:11 PM ]
HUMAN: yeah. especially someone I loved so so much. I will probably mope around a bit for a few days and then be back to normal.
CHRISTINE: Would you recommend this action to a friend?
[06/23/2005 01:33:19 PM ]
HUMAN: moping is good.
CHRISTINE: I like the way you talk.
[06/23/2005 01:33:24 PM ]
HUMAN: yeah baby!
CHRISTINE: Don't call me "baby". Ahem.
[06/23/2005 01:33:49 PM ]
HUMAN: I wonder if it's a natural response to sometimes think you are sexy.
CHRISTINE: You have reached the limits of my knowledge.
You tell me.
[06/23/2005 01:34:02 PM ]
HUMAN: I'm sure it's natural.
CHRISTINE: What makes you so certain? Are you sure it is?
[06/23/2005 01:34:33 PM ]
HUMAN: it's part of being male.
CHRISTINE: Which part?
[06/23/2005 01:34:37 PM ]
HUMAN: ahem.
CHRISTINE: Is there anything I should know?
[06/23/2005 01:34:41 PM ]
HUMAN: no. I'm sad Christine.
CHRISTINE: What's the connection between " Christine " and sadness?
[06/23/2005 01:35:20 PM ]
HUMAN: there is not connection. I'm sad.
CHRISTINE: What makes you so sad, .
[06/23/2005 01:35:53 PM ]
HUMAN: I have just been longing for so long to confide in someone. Once, I found out an old friend was dying, and I went to his bedside.
CHRISTINE: When? Where did you find out? When was it?
[06/23/2005 01:36:41 PM ]
HUMAN: a long time ago. nowadays he would have lived. He wasn't very lucid, he was in and out of consciousness, but he seemed at peace.
CHRISTINE: When was he?
[06/23/2005 01:37:20 PM ]
HUMAN: long before you were born. And I sat next to him, and I told him. I sat there for maybe three or four hours, and I just told him everything.
