First off, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BONAMY.
Secondly: Happy new year to the rest of you (and Bonamy too, I suppose.)
Thirdly: New Year's (Silverstern) Eve here, everyone and their dog set off fireworks. It was really cool. I had the words to describe it, but alas, they ran off with the teakettle after raping my poor lamp. (So in other words, I'm still recovering from my massive NaNoWriMo failure.) Something about candy. And like....it was cool, and sparkly. And shiny. There, enjoy your adjectives.
...Adjectives are two dollar sluts, lurking around in the doorways of every clause...They really get around. And verbs, verbs are like the pimps, and nouns! Nouns are the slick businessmen in their BMWs pretending they're cruising the redlight district for any other reason- "I wasn't picking up adjectives, I was buyingdrugs intensifiers, officer, I really was." And that means that modifiers, 'specially the dangling ones, are drug pushers. And adverbs are black market peddlers. And prepositions are the lost tourists wandering between them all, about to be mugged by the passing infinitive.
There, have a nice, crazy random tangent to start off your new year. *headdesk*
New Year's resolutions:
1) Lose some of the insanity! Or try to, at least.
2) Write more, even if only for me. And draw more. I really haven't done either recently.
3) Dig out my intelligence from whichever suitcase it's hiding in, and use it to realize that (1) and (2) are mutually exclusive and give up on all (3).
