IMAGINATION STATION

Close your eyes for a moment (well, not right now. Wait till you've read the whole paragraph) and imagine this: a ball of fire in a vast empty space. Spend at least ten seconds picturing this ball of fire. (Now close your eyes)

Done?

Good!


I used to do these stupid self-analyzation games with my family, but this isn't one of them. It's just a simple exercise to appreciate how people imagine things differently. Realistically, we all spin around the same ball of fire on a yearly basis. It's sort of our point of reference, but there is no indication that we will all recreate that same ball of fire in our minds when given the freedom.
Now answer these three questions for yourself and the fireball in your own head: What color was it? How big (relatively) was it? How high were the flames or eruptions, if there were any?

UL in the middle

I never actually saw a cat being killed by curiosity, so I remain curious. Today I want to know what words contain the letters 'UL?' List as many words as you can.

RuLEs:
1. the letters 'UL' must be proceeded by at least one letter and
2. they must be followed by at least one letter.

Here's two to get you started:

Unduly
Ruler

Burglary - Grade F

What is it with criminals these days? It's like they're just not putting their whole hearts into it anymore... (See Video)

Fruitoscopy

Yesterday I had a pear. It was delicious.

Today I ate an apple. Also delicious.

I can't remember the last time I ate two pieces of fruit back to back and enjoyed them both.

Tomorrow I'll have a plum.

Ugg is for Uggly!

Ladies, let's have an honest discussion about footwear. Some footwear is attractive:













Some footwear is not:












Can we all agree that Uggs are uggly and that a beautiful woman should avoid putting them onto her body, at all times, unless she is in a blizzard in Minnesota? In which case, we would all be spared seeing them due to the driving snow. That would be ok. but seriously, them are some uggly boots. Just because celebrities wear them does not make them look any better. They look ugly on Kate Hudson and they will look ugly on you.















Please, stop the Uggs!

I guess the moral of this story is, "don't invest in rare coins."

NaNoWrite-some-Mo

No, I haven't started writing yet on this year's NaNoWriMo work. But I will begin this evening. Another prestigious month of burrowing and hiding out and slaving over a hot laptop and an even hotter bottomless pot of tea.

It's an experience and if you aspire to write and you've never taken the NaNoWriMo challenge, get up off your mousepad and click on over there and sign up! It's fun, free and you'll feel like a person after it's done.

Best of luck to all writers this month.
