we once walked out on the beach...

I'm sitting in the writing center. oh what to write about. The word of the day today is lassitude. its a noun meaning 'lack of energy or vitality, listlessness of wearliness. I think i've been feeling lassitude lately. lol. just lots of stress trying to get everything done. the other word or the day is : spatula. its a noun meaning 'implemenmt having a small, flat, flexible blade that is use to mix, spread or left material. I don't think i would refer to it as a blade. I think a blade is something sharp like on a knife, but i suppose thats just my perception of the word. Spatulas are used in cooking and i'm just such a cooking person lol. *not the sarcasm* but its ok. Ok, i'm going to find a list of words and begin commenting on them. i like words that soud kind of fairyish, like ethereal and mystical and words like that. i think i probably have a list at home somewhere of all my favorite words. i have lists of names too. everytime i come up with a name or discover a name that i like in a story or something like that, or just like out, i'll write it down because i have to have names to use in my stories. i like the name ardenlee right now, and stuff like that. i can't remember them all right now. 'Now that I am a man, I have put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." C S Lewis said that. I like C S Lewis. He was a very good writer and an interesting person. The beginning of it sounds like that verse, 'when i was a child, i thought like child, i acted like a child, i reasoned as a child, but when i became a man, i put childish ways behind me' or something like that, but then he adds a twist to it. very cool.
