Words, gotta love them. Interesting little critters one and all.

Who makes up these words? Do they have a special degree in wordology? (is that even a word? Well it is now o’ pal o’ mine)

I make up my own words, and people understand them. I have even come across others actually embracing my new words and using them in their everyday vocab.

But, in the same breath say, you CAN’T make up a word! D’oh….

Somebody smack me and let me know if I am reading this right. I can’t make up a word, if it isn’t in the dictionary, it can’t be real, teachers won’t allow it. YET the words we use and through out every second all over the world, had to come from somewhere….

HELLO people? People created words, they didn’t just fall out of the sky and magically appear. So, why can’t my words be real? Useful tools? Because they aren’t based in Latin? Don’t follow the interesting structural peculiarity of say binomial nomenclature?

Sha”’ right!

More words later.

Can I be the only person wondering what the hell is water and natural water?

Are they different? Gather friends if you will at the grocery store on aisle 19. Look above to the sign that says this way to “water and natural water”.

Do the grocery conglomerates *truly* think that they can fool us with this new water nomenclature? Is it a surprise attack on our psyche to make us believe that there are other waters out there besides water? H2O has a secret red headed step child that nobody knows about?

Come on people! What is the world coming to. Who knows, but I will take my water straight up and natural if you please.

This is my desk. Both physical and mental. Mostly mental, but my doc says I will be a-ok! Recently I had to move my desk, and pack up the drawers. What a crap receptacle it has become! Feng Shui be damned, if this is an indicator of my life, then I am a mess! Go figure.

So, back to the weird stuff in my desk. There are all kinds of things in my drawers (no comments from the ex’s out there). Strange and wonderful, often bizarro things. Desk art, corporate crap, pens, pencils, rubber bands, toothpicks, salt packets, ancient salsa and katsup packets. Stuff.

The mind works a lot like a desk. A desk holds things, sorts things, categorizes things. Sometimes their are things sitting on your desk, just like they are sitting in your mind. Other things get filed away in drawers to be thought about later. Or in the way deep back of your drawer in the bottom, never to be thought of again (or so we hope).

Who knows just what is going to come out of my desk. There are many things on my mind, there is lots of crapity crap in my desk. It is pretty therapeutic cleaning out both the physical and mental desk.

So, welcome to my desk, let the games begin!
