My dear, your blog brings tears of laughter to my eyes at 4:30 in the morning. My sides hurt from laughing....sigh. Ma-lady and pianist, totally understand.
One word...nubbin
Thanks for the laugh. I love you words. I can't think of any words I hate but I am annoyed by the word "cherish". I'm sure I could think of others, but it's too early.
I love the word cherish! (is this a fundamental difference between Nat and I?)
I hate: carcass, secretion, bouffant, and superfluous.
And well do I remember 'vagabond'...sing it Elton..."KINGS AND VAGABONDS...believe the very best!"
p.s. will you come visit me already? i need decorational assistance. and to laugh until unseemingly late.
only lily! i love these lists, and p.s. we have WAY too much in common... after reading your side bar 'about me" thing.. minivan remorse, office is ok, friends is better, pets as kids are creepy, love being tall, etc etc, the list goes on. love it!
sorry I befuddled you with that post:) We are just testing the waters. I didn't bring it up because I forgot and I forgot because I really don't think we can sell it for what we are asking, and we have to sell it for what we are asking. How about the word, doula. Bla, I hate it! It sounds like a nasty body part, ouch my doula is hurting.
p.s. Soooo glad to see your face last night, told you it'd be fun.
One word: BOUTONNIERE!!!
Yes, you know I hate the word FRANKFURTER!
