21790. arkymalarky - 5/13/2007 12:51:44 AM Thanks Alistair!
Bought myself a graduation present of a Blackberry 8800 today. 21791. arkymalarky - 5/13/2007 1:18:11 AM 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. 21792. Ms. No - 5/13/2007 2:22:39 AM 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. ;-> 21793. Ms. No - 5/13/2007 2:23:28 AM Arky,
Congrats to you and Mose! 21794. arkymalarky - 5/13/2007 4:48:09 AM Thanks No! 21795. poipual - 5/13/2007 4:53:09 AM arky
i do. i'll call sun night or mon morn 21796. iiibbb - 5/13/2007 2:14:27 PM 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. 21798. Magoseph - 5/13/2007 3:31:48 PM
Hooray, this card means money to buy books! 21799. judithathome - 5/13/2007 6:01:35 PM Happy Mother's Day to all the Motie MOMS! 21800. prolph - 5/13/2007 10:55:54 PM how many of us mothers and grandmothers joined STANDIG WOMEN
at one pm today?
patsy 21801. wabbit - 5/13/2007 11:44:48 PM 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!
21807. arkymalarky - 5/14/2007 9:40:15 PM Mom and I had an absolutely delightful visit with Al and Evie! They are such a warm, neat couple, and it was like sitting down with people we've known forever. I'm so glad we were able to meet up. I wish Mose could have come, but she was working today.
We ended up in Lucky's, where the infamous Karaoke evening took place last summer, and it was a good atmosphere for a quiet visit, since we were practically the only ones there. It amazed me that hardly any place in downtown Hot Springs was open for lunch. 21808. alistairConnor - 5/14/2007 9:59:31 PM Well, I had planned to meet a woman for lunch today, at a restaurant on a barge tied up on the Rhone in Lyon -- her choice.
I had a meeting at a client's site this morning -- thought I was meeting only two people but there were seven in all, and I had to drive it. It was supposed to finish at 12, but at 12.20 I realised we were still there and spent the next ten minutes trying to wind it up... in the end I just basically walked out on them.
I was late to the restaurant, of course. By then she had called to say that it was closed, in spite of their advertising. Did I mention that it was pouring with rain? Really really wet stuff. She was soaking when I caught up with her. It's supposed to be lucky for weddings, perhaps it is for first meetings too? 21809. wonkers2 - 5/15/2007 12:10:16 AM Hagiography?
