words i like today - chapter one

today's installment of random weirdo crap will be including things i to say and/or write. we all have this secret list in our heads, whether we admit it or not. i'm just cool because i like to admit in public that i'm a goofy nerd. like the other day when i was out to lunch with tanya and discovered that i had my underpants on inside out. it wouldn't have been so funny had i not come out of the ladies' room at fuji and told her all about it. yeah, i'm hip like that. it's part of my charm.

• MOIST - because i can
• retractable - it works the mouth and yet rolls off the tongue
• geezer - damn, that's just fun to say, and it has EEE!
• quaint - it's an enchanting thing, don't you think?
• craptacular - mary makes me love this
• monumentous - a word i heard on trash tv, used to describe when something is both momentous and monumental. thanks for more trash, liz!
• falafel - again, just a fun thing to say. like waffle. good to say, good to eat. everyone's happy all around.
• hoo ha - is it a party? is it a vagina? is it a fight? who knows?!?
• tank - there's something very sturdy about it. this is an excellent example of a word sounding exactly like what it is.
• kerfuffle - ranks up there with moist and waffle on my all-time faves list. so great it's almost better than fercockety.
• pisser - any variation on piss has slowly become a close second to fuck in my exclamatory swearing, in spite of its rather benign meanings and reactions. third place goes to "sofia coppola!" because she just sucks.
• woof - okay, so animal noises in general always rank high with me.

poor bubbenstein:
bubba is looking ashy and rashy, so he has to go to the vet today. we think it's just some kind of skin thing, but he's going for a visit to be on the safe side. the humidity hasn't done much to improve the hairstyling of dizzy or stuart either. good to know it's not just my hair that looks poopy in this weather.
