misused words

I have a lot of words that I use mostly-correctly, but when pressed to define them, I find myself unable to. Now whenever I use one, I am struck with self-doubt, so I always look it up (“define: profligacy” in the search window cuz google is awesome!) in another tab as I’m writing.

throat

This morning I got out of bed at 7am because my throat felt like it was a rigid ring that was trying really hard to hold itself open. It didn’t feel like it was closing, and I’m not wheezing (except when there’s mucus coating my vocal cords–then I wheeze and cough), so it’s weird for… Continue reading throat

Gorgeous piano with what appear to be Craigslist ads, verbatim, hilariously sung in almost faux-operatic. It’s amazing. With all the truest emotion… Continue reading Untitled

Holy Progenitor Of Zeus. This animal can climb trees and break open a coconut. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coconut_crab I like how he has to rub his legs over his breathing apparatus to keep it moist. That’s just gross. Look at these videos. http://www.arkive.org/coconut-crab/birgus-latro/videos.html I feel my doom stumbling in my general direction, slowly, inexorably, herald of horror all… Continue reading Untitled

I was home sick yesterday and today. What comes out of my nose when I bend over and blow salt water through it is dark and bloody. There is a rattle deep in my chest. Coughing makes me cry, which makes everything in my nose get inflamed, which makes everything worse. Last week, I read… Continue reading Untitled

Linked from Muselive, which I’ve started reading again now that there’s a new album in the works: Speaking to BBC 6 Music, Bellamy revealed the record’s sound could see the band abandoning their traditional rock leanings completely. “A symphonic album has turned up here, like a full collaboration with an orchestra,” he said. “There’s definitely… Continue reading piano
