This is how it works: Comment on this entry and get a letter. Write ten words beginning with that letter, including an explanation of what the word means to you and why.
d_r_o_n_e gave me a C.
Ok, I thought about being an ass and providing the Webster.com definition for each word, but I'm not that pedantic. However, I just want to go on record and say that I considered it. And, doesn't using the word "pedantic" automatically make one pedantic?
1.
Cornucopia: Who doesn't love a giant horn of plenty? I actually own a wicker cornucopia which I got when I was working at the Renaissance Faire. One of my first memories of
iamfourninjas is of him borrowing my cornucopia and alternately wearing it as a hat and a codpiece. "This be my horn of plenty — and I be plenty horny!"
2.
Cats: An obvious choice, wasn't it? I am
destined to be a crazy cat lady. I love cats so much. Chip, by the way, is the best cat ever.
3.
Cheese: One of the main stumbling blocks between me and veganism is a block of cheddar. Some day,
cheezaddict and I will be found passed out in the Sonoma Cheese Factory after hours, covered in cubes of Monterey Jack and wearing stupid smiles.
4.
Cleanse: It's been a year since I did my first
Master Cleanse and I'll probably do another one soon (#5!). I don't know if detoxification is for real or a crock of shit, but fasting feels great. Oh, and I want to get back into all of my pants again. That's why.
5.
Caffeine: One of my main addictions, which I try to overcome via the Cleanse. Coke and Coffee both start with C as well. Coincidence? We'll let you decide.
6.
Coincidence: Is anything ever an accident? I prefer to call it fate... but you can call it Italy if it pleases you, vicar.
7.
Computer: My best friend for many years.
8.
Canada: I can't really explain why Canada appeals to me on a variety of levels — it just does. Between the food (mmm, White Spot's blueberry pie), the coffee (Tim Horton's!), the music (Great Big Sea, Tara MacLean, Tragically Hip, etc., etc., etc.), the culture (
Due South? Awesome tv show!), and the maple syrup, what's not to love? Some of my best friends are Canadian! ;)
9.
Commitment: Buh... buh... a word/concept that fills me with such abject terror that I actually have trouble spelling it.
10.
Conundrum: It's a mystery to me why I keep doing these memes and quizzes. It's weird, isn't it? I mean, most of them seem like they were written by 12 year olds. And yet I am compelled to participate along with the rest of the herd. :) Don't get me wrong, I enjoy it.
And now, for some quizzes!
