“There is peace even in the storm” ― Vincent van Gogh

I love a good thunderstorm, don't you? The sound of the thunder, and then the rain on the rooftop. It usually lulls me to sleep, even if in the middle of the day.

Have a nice Wednesday and rest of the week. =]:)

There is nothing stable in the world; uproar's your only music - John Keats

So, let's get this thing going again! I hope you are all having a good new year so far. I think this year is going to be a good one. =]:)

The cat could very well be man's best friend but would never stoop to admitting it. - Doug Larson

My name is Pete, and I have a confession to make. I love cats! There, I said it. That wasn't so bad. I feel better already! You pronounce this one, (ai·lu·ro·phile).

Cats are wonderful, mysterious, and very cuddly. Sitting by a fire reading a good book, with a purring cat in your lap is a cozy, wonderful thing. I don't have a cat right now, I lost mine a couple years ago, but I will again sometime.

And for the dog lovers out there, I love dogs too! No need to choose or take sides. I already did a word for dog lovers right here: http://www.peternoahthomas.com/2015/07/my-new-favorite-word_29.html

Have a great rest of the week and a wonderful weekend! =]:)

Chork

1/13/2016

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky. - Rabindranath Tagore

So, how would we use this word? How about something like... Peter opened the pickup door and stepped out, right into a puddle of muddy rain water. As he entered the grocery store, everyone stopped and stared, and a few folks looked like they wanted to ~~chork~~ choke him, but he was oblivious and went chorking down the aisles.

Okay... Your turn to find a way to use this word. Have a great Wednesday and rest of the week! =]:)

Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress; but I repeat myself. - Mark Twain

Well, that just about covers all of them, doesn't it?

This word is fun, although a little silly but that's what makes it... um...fun! (Snol·ly·gos·ter) is a noun and I think it's an appropriate word at the moment. Especially here in the states. I'll have fun with this one the rest of the week. Have a great Wednesday everyone. =]:)

Fewtrils & Fattrels

12/16/2015

Here are a couple long forgotten words that I think we should bring back. Most of us are familiar with stocking stuffers or stocking fillers at Christmas, but why not call them fewtrils or fattrrels from now on?

So, when someone empties their Christmas stocking and thanks you for all the baubles inside, you can just say, "Oh, it’s nothing at all. Just a few festive fewtrils & fattrels!" Of course DO NOT say this if you put a diamond ring or something like that in the stocking. ;-)

I'm going to be away for a little while, so I won't do the new word next week. When I come back, I'll have some new ones though, and I think you'll like them.

Have a wonderful Christmas for those who celebrate it and to everyone, a prosperous and happy New Year. =]:)

Psyehrophilie

O, wind, if winter comes, can spring be far behind? - Percy Bysshe Shelley

Psychrophilic is an adjective and pronounced: psy·chro·phil·ic \ˌsī-krō-ˈfi-lik\

One of the neatest things to do in late spring or early summer as the weather is getting hot, is hiking to the top of a mountain, and have a snowball fight. It's surreal. I love snow, but sometimes I could do without the cold. Brrrr. You do get used to it though.

Oh well. The cold weather is perfect to sit by a nice fire, and read a good book or two. And that is the best way to thrive in cold temperatures! =]:)

Logorrhea

12/02/2015

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers. - Khalil Gibran

I don't want to subject you to logorrhea so I'll keep this short! You pronounce this one (log·or·rhea). I bet you know a few folks who are expert logorrhea's... don't you? Have a terrific Wednesday! =]:)
