This One Goes Out to Esh


Eshwar reads my blog.
Just thought I'd tell you.
And I don't have a thing for Peter, regardless of what Eshwar may say.
Peter is simply on my mind a lot right now because of several different things.
And for the record-how do you spell "several?" I have no idea! Is it "sevaral" or "several?" Why have I seen it spelled both ways in professional situations?? Google is telling me that "sevaral" is spelled wrong...hmmm...
Speaking of grammatical errors...I went to an art gallery today and noticed some in the "About the Artist" paragraphs they had next to the paintings. They used its/it's, their/they're, and you're/your incorrectly more than once. Shocking? Yes. I felt like saying something to the receptionist lady up front but decided not to because she was so nice.
Thanksgiving was Thursday. What am I thankful for? (Because you all were wondering)
  • A father who has a career
  • My tutoring
  • Quiz Bowl
  • Art!
  • Literature, specifically my Austen, de Maurier, Orczy, Doyle, Hawthorne, Carol, Tolstoy, and Ibsen. Without them, reading would be a lot less exciting.
  • My family
  • My church
  • The color purple (and not the book by Alice Walker)
  • Friends
  • Google
  • Wikipedia!

Confusion


Sometimes, things can be confusing.
Scratch that. Always. (Rhetoric strategy)
Life in general, really.
For example, why is this certain thing the way it is?
Don't you love ambiguousness?
Don't you love how "ambiguousity" is not a word?
Well, I don't.
And now there's this quiz bowl drama. How's THEM apples??
Why do certain aspects of me have to be socially inept?
Is this natural?
Who even knows.
What a horrible blog post.
Sorry.
I'm getting a negative/terrible vibe from this post.
I'll post something better. Later. Because it's late. And I'm writing in fragments. (Up until just then.) Sorry. Again.
Bye.
