sugarcoating?

21788. alistairconnor - 5/12/2007 6:43:45 PM

euphemism?

Congratulations to Ohio, and to the Arkettes!

Ohio, getting out of residential mortgage lending sounds like a good career move to me.

Thanks Alistair!

Bought myself a graduation present of a Blackberry 8800 today.

Crapitall,

Al, I accidentally deleted your email while trying to reply to it (I'm really showing that I'm the type of person who should own a Blackberry, here).

I gave you my cell phone #, so if you can holler at me on it Monday morning and leave a return # on a voice mail if I don't answer, I'll holler back asap.

Monday's good, except that place doesn't open until 3, so if your favorite is open for lunch I'm fine with it or any place else downtown.

I hope you're where you can read all this. If not, I hope you have my # with you.

iiibbb,

You're right, there is a word and now I can't think of it either and it will keep me up all night. Two weeks from now I'll suddenly shout out "WORD!" in the middle of something else and everyone will look at me like I'm out of my mind.

But I'll be sure to come back here and tell you what it is. ;->

Arky,

Congrats to you and Mose!

21794. arkymalarky - 5/13/2007 4:48:09 AM

Still working on the word... came up with placative, but I still don't think that has quite the right contextural meaning. It works, but just barely.

21797. iiibbb - 5/13/2007 2:17:45 PM

placative implies the audience would have some animosity toward the protagonist. I'm thinking of a neutral audience that doesn't have many, if any, preconcieved ideas.

Hooray, this card means money to buy books!

Happy Mother's Day to all the Motie MOMS!

patsy

I hadn't heard about Standing Women. At 1pm, I was standing at the kitchen counter making Eggs Benedict for my mother, siblings and nieces. We'll try for next year.

Meanwhile, I hope all the mother's had a happy mother's day!

21802. wabbit - 5/13/2007 11:47:01 PM

Also, congratulations to Ohio and the Malarky women!

21803. arkymalarky - 5/14/2007 12:08:10 AM

Thanks Wabbit!

I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!

21804. arkymalarky - 5/14/2007 4:22:34 AM

Hey! Posting from my blackberry. Not going to be a regular thing, but it does work!

21805. thoughtful - 5/14/2007 1:44:47 PM

Congrats to the arkans on graduating and happy mother's day to all moms.

21806. arkymalarky - 5/14/2007 9:33:20 PM

Thanks, Thoughtful!
