Ya’all, starting a blog is INTIMIDATING! What do I want to talk about? Do I want to put all of myself just out there? What if no one reads this?
- I have thoughts about so many things that in the end, one weird, hodgepodge multi-themed blog seemed the best choice.
- I don’t know just how much I want to put myself out there. We’ll figure it out along the way?
- Then, Oh Well.
Also, when looking up words to describe the multitude of themes I have swirling in my head, a new word came about, I feel like I must share as completely appropriate:
Omnium-Gatherum (noun)
om·ni·um-gath·er·um | \ˌäm-nē-əm-ˈga-t͟hə-rəm \plural omnium-gatherums
Definition of omnium-gatherum
: a miscellaneous collection (as of things or persons)
From Merriam-Webster
Did I mention I like words? I used to hate dictionaries, because when I was a child and couldn’t spell a word, my father always said to go to a dictionary. But sure enough, if the word was actually misspelled in my brain, I NEVER found the word. It only proved my spelling was correct or that it was incorrect, not how to correct it. Thank goodness for spell-check and google autocorrect, otherwise I might have been forever tortured trying to look up words in the dictionary and never finding them. I’m also particularly fond of thesauri, rhyming dictionaries, and the oxford comma.
