I haven't blogged for about a century, in word years. I don't know that such a thing exists, but it sounds cool and lets me get away with exaggeration. Just today I saw a social media post from a friend who's blog I had been following, and then realized, "oh my goodness, I have seen their blog in months!" By which word, two months still counts as months because it makes me add the "s" to pluralize it. Then I realized, shortly afterwards, that I hadn't been following because I haven't been posting. I felt somewhat less critical of myself for this deficiency when I noticed that I have friends who are less frequent posters than I am. Why do we do that, I wonder? We compare ourselves to others to determine how guilty we ought to feel? I don't know why, but it was effective.
I am currently on an addictive path. I am playing Words with Friends. I like that I can do this with friends who live all over the place. By which I mean, not here. I have been surprised at my paucity of vocabulary at crunch time, but what can be done? Anyone else want to have a friendly joust with the alphabet?
