Round 19, Hour 3

[lolmac]

. . . in which I have, at least for the moment, caught up with myself.

How goes it?  Any further infestations of sesquipidalian mongooses?

*hurries to catch up with you and yourself*

I wish I could think of a great vocab word.

words, words, words

It doesn't even have to be pornographic.

Still at it. Still revising and laughing at own run-on sentences. Still can't type much on this darn phone. Internet on phone only is way leas distracting so I get more done.

One of my favourites is 'disempurplement'.

I'm stuck :( The scene I want to write doesn't see to want to come out, so I'm going to skip it, move to the next one :D

Excellent approach. I had to do that with an entire chapter last month. If I hadn't jumped ahead, I don't think I'd've written anything at all in weeks.

In the closing session of the techie conference yesterday, a Very Perky Guy was talking about productivity.

"What's the best thing you can do to improve your productivity?" he asked a room full of mostly uninterested people who wanted to be elsewhere.

"Close your browser," I said audibly.

So very true and also I snickered.

Right. Bed time. Probably no writing for me until night again tomorrow. Y'all rock on with your bad selves.

G'night!

Truer words....

[lolmac]

See you tomorrow! Sleep well!

How about antidisestablishmentarianism? :-D

I can remember when my brother and I were 'playing school' and he gave me that on my spelling test.

I've spent the last half-hour discussing new LJ names with some friends who aren't on LJ. *g* (So far, all we've decided is that it should probably involve "kraken"...)

Sounds obscene. :-)

I need to disempurple my old bedroom, which never got entirely empurpled since I moved out before I finished painting, lol.

Ages ago, when I was training for the National Spelling Bee, I got to cope with that one -- and also pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.

That should be a German word! :-D

Greek and Latin roots are fine by me. I can even handle Welsh. I am hopeless with German (which is officially exempted from discussions of Longest Words, because in German you can always assemble an even longer one).

I can't spell Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch without looking it up, but I can pronounce it adequately.
