hambones & thespians

i need new adjectives.

i respond using the same handful of overused, exhausted superlative comments. i find myself in dire need of word bank deposits before my vocabulary is overdrawn resulting in under funded expression and blatantly dull dialogue.

it shames me to admit my verbal reactions seem to cycle around words like: AWEsome!, Amazing, my goodness, that's AMAAAYZZing, brilliant, absolutelyamazing, great, that is super cool, wow, wowthat'samazing, how exciting!, soooooo gooooood, sogood. Incredible sneaks in occasionaly. by simply documenting these - my (i must take ownership and be responsible) - expressions, i am left feeling bland, conventional and unable to let the meaning i want to mean, mean what it's really meant to mean.

all because of YOU... adjectives.

i am choosing to will myself to experiment with new descriptives, to alter the awesomeness and phase out my amazingly numskulled word choices. i aspire to lend myself to more thoughtful articulation...with a whimsical edge. perhaps with words like: nifty, breathtaking, sterling and quaint. what do you think? the film was uhh, breathtaking, sterling performances, nifty jokes and the costume design...well, quaint.

thankyou very much, you've been remarkable and extraordinary.
