The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity. -- Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951)

furniture moving and wood louses

Have entirely moved room around into new arrangement, while simultaneously providing Maurizio and Hiroko with an hour of entertainment yesterday afternoon. Everyone seems quite pleased with the outcome. The things we will do to calm our brains...

******
The 'K' kerfuffle (AAAAAHHHHH!!!!! HOW could i have missed that one? i LOVE that word!) continues. Kinky Kafka is a bit much, although perhaps they were not intended to form a single phrase by submitter. And I haven't the slightest clue what the Boltzmann Constant is (and do not have time to look it up in Wikipedia at the mo -- well, I do, but I am trying to focus on the organisation of this piece.).

Additionally, it has been brought to my attention that 'Auntie' is to be spelled with an '-ie' instead of the '-y' that i inadvertently used. I agree wholeheartedly and have no idea what the spelling cortex of my brain was doing at that particular instant.

I have learned recently that Roly-Polys are not in fact known as roly-polys... they are Wood Louses (or lice, but that just sounds really unhygenic). Our house appears to be a protected habitat for the wood louse and I am the only one who is not afraid to pick them up off the floor and chuck them out the window.

******
What is up with this American woman who is claiming to be a descendant of Jesus and Mary Magdalene? Why can't I think of something rubbish to write that people will pay money for the privilege of reading?

******
Someone in the house seems to have changed their phone ring to 'La Bamba' -- hahahahaha! They can answer the phone any time now...

*****
must get to work now.... (sigh)

That's right, stop prevaricating and get to work, moving your room round indeed!
And the winner is.....
krummhorn
kwashiorkor
knissomancy
klangfarbe
knick-knackatory
and
kerygma
Now avoid the temptation to start looking these up, and anyhoo what are you checking the blog for instead of scribbling?
