lunthum

lunthum - used to describe the cowardly act of posting a snarky comment anonymously on a blog. as in: the comment one of the sponsors of the SA blog awards left on a prize-winning blog was a bit lunthum.

maybe it's just me, but i think people should stand behind what they say or not say it.

flerify

womiza

womiza ~ that other woman who seems to repack one's suitcase, removing all items of utmost importance (like clean underwear) and replacing them with other items (like knitting needles) which, while there's no contesting their importance per se, don't seem as imperative for your standard business trip.

finally

vaverys:
the projects that get made after a long period of inspiration with the inability to act on said inspiration.

use:
the vaverys julie made today were worth the wait.

and here's some of mine...

I need a long car trip to think on these. This envelope's been by my laptop so long it's got food stains!

Jump in anytime if any incite overpowering inspiration or anything!

here's how many...

WV words i've collected. now, i just need to write some definitions for some of them. i'm just waiting for inspiration to strike. i'm sure it will come and smack me up side of the head soon.

a severe case of pershomi

i am overrun by all of the slips of paper that i have been jotting WV words on. i've been waiting for inspiration to strike and it has thus far failed me, but a glimmer of inspiration showed up this morning, so here you go...

kengst - the feeling of weakness in the face of some coveted object that's on sale for half the usual price, when you've vowed not to make any major purchases until your new paycheck starts to come in.  as in: i'm in total kengst over the red kitchen aid espresso machine that i saw in imerco yesterday. it's marked down to 4,000DKK from the usual 8,000DKK and they only have one. if i spend 40DKK every time i buy a latte at starbucks or in a café, i'd have it paid for in a mere 100 lattes.

begaliti - the total self-justification of breaking vows not to make major purchases. the last sentence above was a begaliti.

obonings - constant nagging of husband to get a haircut. thankfully, the obonings have worked and he just came back from the hairdresser, looking much more himself again.

pershomi - a sense of longing for warmer, more exotic climes, brought on by reading travel memoirs.

lations - the hand sweats you get watching a child clear a particularly difficult level in super mario for the DS lite.

pardiness - a tendency to remain in one's pajamas all day long when one doesn't have to be anywhere.

like pulling teeth...

i sat my sister and her boyfriend down last week in a cool copenhagen bar (bankeråt) beneath this rather disturbing lamp and asked them to compose some balderdash definitions. here's what they came up with:

outoon - 1.) a group of soldiers stationed just outside of enemy territory (mq) OR 2.) short cartoon at the end of a movie (jason).

muragon - an object whose number of sides equals a prime number.

salki - an alcoholic who drinks a lot of saki.

sifflo - the rate at which flour flows through a sifter.

winest - the basket that's often found around a bottle of chianti.

tessive - the handwriting of someone who tries too hard with their handwriting.

sixici - 600

getting these few definitions out of them was like pulling teeth. perhaps proving that you can't foist your obsession on others. and that this little venture requires inspiration.

undays

Just got 'unday' when I posted a comment for Julochka and it brought to mind this cartoon - 

I think the picture says it all.... one of those undays.

your shorts

wv: COTSTA: the "curse" word you say when your borrowed shorts fall down during "therapy." See Shindig's post here for explaination.

gestation

WV: blansi. Definition: that time period when an idea is gestating. ie, Julie's post here.

apropos unsessible women

yesterday, when i read this post on amanda's blog, my WV was unsess.

unsess - to push yourself beyond what you think you can do, only to find that you can do it and you're invincible.

gredlome - the little creature that makes mysterious noises in the house, late at night, when everyone else is asleep. "the gredlome was freaking me out a little bit last night and i had to get up and check that the doors were locked."

galiss - a special kind of hat worn by house gnomes (called nisse in danish) which live in the attic and protect your house unless you treat them badly, in which case they play tricks on you. but this isn't about them, it's about the hats they wear.

talitas - the last, delicious salty crumbs left in the bottom of a bag of chips or a canister of pringles.  "mm, save me some of the talitas, they're my favorite part!"

oreph - a trainee village wiseman. one must first be an oreph before becoming an oracle.

flispe - a small, colorful, darting bird related to the hummingbird, which is only found on certain remote pacific islands.

ochasee - one who provokes trouble in a crowded place. you don't want any ochasees to show up at a stadium concert.

ungistun - to throw your shoes at a world leader. that iraqi journalist ungistunned bush a few weeks ago.

a new thing

I have this new thing...making up definitions for words based on the wv words on some of my favorite posts.

For example, my wv word for this post of tangobaby's was CONSU. Definition: the telling of a beautiful story with words AND photos.

and from this post of Molly's: PHOMA. Definition: that feeling you get when you get back into exercising. A cross between exhaustion and exhilaration and adrenaline.
