Welcome to Three Word Thursday #20. This week, joining the quondam word-list, we have opsimath; obarmate; & assiduity. We also have a whole list of perspicacious writers. If you enjoy reading my story, leave a comment then click on the names of the other players and go see how they used the words. You’ll be entertained (and possibly educated) all at once.
Sorry, I am late. Yesterday I went out to dinner with my Amoeba; then we went grocery shopping; then I wrote a bit (only 200 words or so — it’s harder than you think!) and finally, I got involved in research for my novel and read about metallurgy, J.R.R. Tolkein, Galileo, Monkey Pod Trees and space helmets. Next thing I knew, Amoeba had gone to bed, I was half asleep at my keyboard and it was after midnight. That’s when I decided to brush my teeth and take a nap.
Perhaps I will get a story together later. In the meantime, here’s next week’s words and Mr. Linky for all of you “Not Distracted” people. I’ll be around to see your stories after a bit.
The 3WT #21 words will be: sevidical; morsicant; veteratorian
Got it? Good! In that case: Your story is due on: July 30th, 2009
Forgiven LOL. Was the drool on your keyboard by chance? LOL Don’t forget our lunch today. I’ll pick ya up about 11:30 I’ll call ya if I get called into work by 11 if I do. I don’t think I will but I should know by 10 – 10:30 if I’m working
.-= Thom´s last blog ..Thursday Thunks – It’s the July 23rd Version and I Can’t Think of a Catchy Title =-.
Loved our lunch today! You are the best!
No worries. I’m not sure that my words match, but I entered anyway. Hope that you have a great lunch with Thom, and he can provide some stress relief.
.-= Cherie´s last blog ..Three Word Thursday #20 =-.
I read your entry and quite enjoyed it!
i thought the words were acrasia, murklins and oncethmus!
well, that is at least what i used when i scheduled today’s post…
(i’m still not actively blogging so i won’t sign up)
.-= juliana´s last blog ..TWT 20 =-.
Juliana — Ah-ha! You read my post on a reader didn’t you? I posted and then realized I hadn’t updated the words and had to edit, but the feed reader had already swept my post off to all of you. Your words match week #20 just fine.
Well, mine’s up, but I won’t be able to catch up with everyone else until tomorrow. Nearly bedtime here.
And you have an early night. You deserve it
.-= Anthony North´s last blog ..BOOKS I LIKE =-.
Tony — early night? I don’t know how! I can’t seem to go to bed before midnight. Today however, I slept clear through to 8 a.m.! That’s almost unheard of!
i intend to get in on next week’s words. i miss doing this.
Zerilda – -we’ll be looking for you!
I’m sorry about your recent job woes. Asleep at your keyboard, huh? I wish you much success in your job search.
.-= Jamie Dawn´s last blog ..Adventures with Grandad: The Finale =-.
JD — well, I don’t sleep at my keyboard at work, but I often come close at home!
Ya, sometimes there just is not enough time in a day. Your research looks interesting.
.-= bettygram´s last blog ..Dog Progress =-.
Betty — the research was eclectic anyway!
Hi Quilly!
Those 2 words will cause me to have to think when I’m supposed to be winding down to zzz. However, “going to dinner with an amoeba” has already spawned a story in my head! Missed you. I’ll be back.
.-= Lynne´s last blog ..Puppy Love =-.
Lynne — well, they’ve been up all day. If you’d have come by earlier, you could have had them wrestled into submission by now.
I hope Thom has succeeded to put back a smile on your face. Correction: I just know he did.
Jientje — yes, I had a wonderful time with Thom and I smiled and laughed, but I still have a job I hate, and now I have a job I hate that doesn’t even pay me well enough to support my daily travel to and fro.
With that eclectic list of subjects guessing what your novel is about just got very interesting.
.-= Carletta´s last blog ..In Pursuit of Dragons =-.
Carletta — I thought it might, but it isn’t as intriguing as it seems — maybe.
