In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of “word for the day”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today.
The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer. I’m just letting all the new students know that we behave as if we were ladies and gentlemen in here. Those two words “as if” can get you an A if you make the subbie laugh.

Grimmy, an obsolete word can be good, my dear. Just go with the flow unless you're in Alaska, then go with the floe.
Silence, do you think?
46 and clear again, yippee! It is finally dry enough to paint, so I'm off to a customer's house to do so-back later...
A++++ for you!
So your prisal was not a prize. Is that what you are telling me, tD?
I've seen that done so many times, Knitting. A brake shop owner here in our area WON his case against the dreaded eminent domaine with the help of Institute for Justice. The city coffers wanted to put in a lovely new mall, like we don't have them everywhere already.
Got excited about your post! A++++ for you, Knitting.
A++++ for you, Dutch.
the xskids are back to school today, but there is a 2 hour delay. i got the one i am responsible for delivered to her institution of higher learning.
Yes. I should know better than to shop at 2nd-hand body parts shops... refrigerations isn't always that dependable.... and the eye colors didn't even match.
Oh, cool! Maybe I can get my nails done on Thursday. They are really getting ragged because of the weeds. LOL!
"For presal, use The Force you must. ARRRRRRRRR!"
I donwanna........
yes go and have a manicure. i used the gift cert to the salon that xshub gave me for Christmas, this past Sat. and they did something called a spa manicure and spa manicure. it is more elaborate than just a regular one, and they put your feet and hands in parrafin wax, when that cools and they peel it off, your feet and hands are so soft and smooth : )
Methiolade! That was the orange stuff that burned so bad! CG said his mom used it too.
I love the way parrafin softens hands! Have you had a mud treatment?
yes i def remember that!
i don't think i have. i had a variety of diff things, but i don't think mud. Mostly i do this when we are on vaca somewhere that has a nice spa facility. the best was in Hawaii last June, when the massage and body treatments were done in this semi outdoor room, where you could see the beautiful sky and palm trees. it was heaven on earth. literally, you came out of there in a total daze of relaxation.
I see that xs doesn't count her brief stint as a nude mud-wrestler.
