Word For The Day, Monday, 11/19/12

;


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".

ludic; adj

layful in an aimless way: the ludic behavior of kittens.

Etymology: 1935–40; < Latin lūd- (stem of lūdere to play) + -ic, perhaps via French ludique, learned formation from same components

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.

The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....

No, I didn’t. I spent last week starting my Christmas shopping and read a couple of books. Had a birthday party for my 70 yo Dem driver - hadn’t laughed that hard in awhile. He got roasted by his hunting buddies, all his stories are true. I always thought he exaggerated. LOL Still avoiding too much news. I have a ways to go before I recover.

Found the menu. Looks good. Trouble is that I’ll have to stop eating about noon on Wednesday because our reservations (made late) are for 10:30 AM! I’ll get ludic afterwards.

oh fun for her! xspups were being boarded at Petsmart while we were gone for the funeral and i paid for the extra playtime and treats for them while they were there. i think they’ve had a belly full of petsmart for awhile after being there a number of days over the last few weeks. Apparently there were two other cavaliers there also and the staff was very excited to have four cavs at once to interact with each other.

I was a bit scared at first, because Linda was not socialized at all. It has just been her and me for months, and she is very protective.

But after a few little tests of dominance, she fits right in.

Aren’t “tests of dominance” something that happens on Festivus?
