C'MON, C'MON, C'MON

I've been working on a post that I can't quite make say what I want it to. It's the first one so far that hasn't just fallen out of my head and ended up here. (Weird visual, huh.) I type a few lines, read it and then re-save it in Drafts. It's probly gonna be there for awhile or until I get sick of it and delete it. Hang around though, cause if I do finish it and like it, it may be a doozie.

Isn't that a cool word, "doozie"? There are a lot of words I like. And some I can't say. People at work make fun of me. Mostly, there are words that I was taught were "not nice". Some of those stuck. Otherwise, there are things that "ladies" just don't say. And since first and foremost, if nothing else, I am, a Lady. Consequently, I cannot say (or type) d---o, d--g, and two or three others. I don't know why I'm telling you this. Are there words you can't or won't say? The girls at work spent all last Spring teaching me to say "beaver". I still hesitate, but I can get it out. But I will never, ever say the n word and the f word that have two g's in the middle.

I'll never forget once in Art school. I was 32 and everyone else in the class was 18 or so, mostly boys. They were discussing a certain girl who we all considered a "twit". They would never let me forget that I said, "Ah, she's a tw-t." Yes, there's a bit of difference.

There's still an open invitation to the lurkers. You're more than welcome. But I need to run. Make yourself at home. :-)

STHTTMML: Simon's poem from yesterday and the fact that neither of us could find a good musical personality that rhymed with "-assy" other than Shirley Bassey...

GSL: All the words to "Hanging by a Moment" by Lifehouse. I heard this song today for the first time in ages and it is one good song.
