Disturbia, fiction, family, friends, and everything else between the lions.

I love words.  As I get older though it seems like I am starting to lose them bit by bit.  So I subscribed to a "word of the day" email.

I will share the wealth with JU!  If you wanna respond, find a way to use the word in a sentence.  The more creative, the better.

(This is a little trick I use when I have writer's block.  Pick a word and then expound on it.)

So without further ado...today's word.

I am distrait while driving if both my kids are yellking.  (Yellking is my word for talking and yelling at the same time.)

Good going Tonya!

His dad pointed to his size 14 boot and said "if you don't behave, I'm gonna put distrait in your ass..."

"if you don't behave, I'm gonna put distrait in your ass..."


I was going to think of a sentence...but damnit this is too funny to even attempt to follow.

Wow, what a day. I mean I really need a martini after what I have witnessed. I saw a distrait mom driving along the road in a van swerving because she was yelling at her kids. If that wasn't bad enough, a block further down the road I saw a grown man hopping up and down on one booted foot because the other was straight up the ass of some young man. Jeez, what a day!

Great word, distrait.

I sat in the doctor's surgery, in a particularly distrated state because I expected to hear the worst.
