Rare Error

One of the very few errors I've had here on Blogger. I've had this blog for over five years and I haven't had more than five errors in all that time. Back in MSN Groups, I could get five errors in a day, even that many in an hour. Facebook is better, but they have more glitches than I think I want to tolerate.

Oddly enough, I got it the other day when posting this.

Dear Diary

I'm too lazy and don't have the motivation to keep a journal.

You Should Take Up Journaling

You are very private, but you aren't aloof. You just have a well developed inner world. You spend a lot of time thinking by yourself. It helps to get your thoughts down on paper. You are an idealistic soul. You have noble ideas about the world. You are a natural writer of all sorts. You are equally suited writing essays, journals, and fiction.

At least now I'll know what to call it if I'm ever in Great Britain  just goofin' off. A slacker is a slacker the world around, I expect.

I'm Into Something Good-Herman's Hermits

amygdaliform

From the Word of the Day:

amygdaliform a·myg·da·li·form [uh-mig-duh-luh-fawrm] adjective

almond-shaped

She is naturally blonde, pale, with amygdaliform eyes and high cheekbones. 
- Gulnar Nazarkhan, The Secret World

This is a word I didn't know and don't think I've ever seen it. I know I've never heard it used in conversation. It's also a word that I think is unnecessary. Instead of saying someone has amygdaliform eyes, why not just say they have almond-shaped eyes? At least people would understand what you meant and not have to go look it up.
