Osculate is an awful sounding word for a sweet gesture. No wonder we use its definition 'kiss' as our commonplace term.
For the Boy's first Christmas, we opted, instead of lavishing him with toys and more toys (I mean, it's not like we were ever ones to hold back on toy purchases for him to begin with), to get him something we really wanted him to have. And what we wanted was a $400 dictionary and a cute little wheeled stand on which to display it and the included magnifying lens needed to illuminate the miniscule text. Of course, The Boy, who today still labors over words like "the" and "our," has yet to employ the power of the OED, so it'd been sitting in the basement this past year, still somehow gathering dust in its sealed-up moving box. We brought it up today, mostly to serve as a gaming surface in the absence of a coffee table. When not in use as etymological reference/flat checkmate conveyance? It tucks neatly into the functional, but never-used-by-us fireplace. Feels like bibliophilic heresy, but, you know, whatever.
