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.
Punctilio
Noun (plural - punctilios)
Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.

OK, so the punctilio was totally missing from my post. Let’s move on.
Rise and shine! Tis FRiday!
I’m here first, call me “Punctilio”!
I am watching Fox and Friends to check out Elisabeth Hasselbeck. I have purposely ignored Fox for months, so I didn’t know she was on. Sounds like a good move.
He’s adorable and looks to be about 15 yo, LOL!
Good Morning!
I wish my management team would exercise some punctilio with the standards we’ve put in place, but I continue to fight with them on system uptime and system changes during the overnight hours.
still can’t do it, can’t turn the tv on, other than for hockey. i’m sort of freaking myself out, bc i am def not one of those nutball types you find on FR who doesn’t own a tv! tomorrow my friend Paula is coming over and we are going to do an eastern european cooking day. we are going to make pierogie and halupky from scratch. my massage therapist gave me her recipes, her family is polish and they still cook those things routinely. i am going to do potato and cheese, paula mentioned something about LEKVAR [oh gag me, it’s prune] but i am going to pass on that one!
Indeed you are. A++
Good morning.
Isn’t he? I just love him.
Sounds like my DH when he has spent the evening on our home computer. LOL A++
i know he must be a breath of fresh air in those musty, dank novus ordo halls up there!
Yum! Happy Birthday to xsteen! Happy times for her. Hope her beloved makes her birthday a special.
They are in Dallas for the wedding of her college roommate this weekend. It will be special because it’s her chance to introduce him to her college friends, whom she has not seen for the past 2 years, and she can show him around her alma mater etc.
He is running the RCIA program that I am helping with, so I see him every Wednesday night for 2 hours. So far, it has been a very interesting experience. Wouldn’t miss it.
Ahhh, how fun.
