The Mentor's word for the day is 'dactylology.' Mine is the word 'nope.'
nope (nôp)
adverb
Informal No. 
These were actual answers on an application I received from a 25 year old female.
Ever convicted of a felony? nope
Ever been discharged involuntarily? nope
Are you currently in school? nope
Do you have reliable transportation? nope, don't drive
Too funny! 
Nope rhymes with dope, dope makes you stupid... at least from what I remember.
Am I gonna hire her? nope
Another interesting word: affrèrement - "brotherhood" - "brothers" pledged to live together sharing 'un pain, un vin, et une bourse' -- one bread, one wine, and one purse. Sworn before a notary and required witnesses, all of their goods usually became the joint property of both parties, and each commonly became the others legal heir. . . from Medieval times.
I'm not gay but I support their right to become "brothers" or "sisters." 
I'm attempting to close the door on an ex-boyfriend. It's been what, about six months and he still won't let go. Yesterday, perhaps, was the last of it. I hope so. I doubt it. I know the power of positive thought. I've done spells and believe you me, they've worked beyond belief but I've deliberately avoided being malicious and want to keep doing so. I had one work before I even lit the damn candle. I was amazed, even though I've been doing this for forever.
I've had offers from several witch friends which I've refused. Lessons aren't learned if you're forever sloughing off responsibility. Revenge is also not so sweet... although upon returning the last of items to said ex- my accompaniment decided to see if he held any papers I may have needed and found within his clutches many a jewelry item and magical tool I thought were long gone. Bastard! 
Are you still gonna Not curse his ass?? nope
I have another outlet for such dastardly deeds. 
I worked the candle store today. It was slow. I had a young man come in to chat for a while. He seemed nice.
Although raised Catholic/Christian very drawn to the Craft. Has dilemma about attraction, from friends and from within//upbringing. I hope I helped. Met some people who were in classes before I ever joined. She was going to buy a necklace I decided I wanted and prayed she wouldn't buy it so I could. She didn't.
Found something else instead. They were really nice and still practice regularly. Quite rare from where I stand. Many leave and no longer practice. What's up with that? Am I shocked by it? nope
Autumn equinox is up and coming soon. Same as my birthday. I'll be forty. 40! Holy crapola. I definitely don't feel 40. I'm gonna have a big party. My mom will cook Thai food. It'll be a toga party. Sue said she would help. I can't wait. Forty. Wow.
Been looking for music appropriate without being too cheesy. May have to write something instead. Found one called The Autumn Effect by 10 Years. May be a little dark but seems quite appropriate even though it is on the dark side. It is the waning half of the year; a time of repose.
Gotta couple of calls for jobs. Love it. I should have place-card orders coming soon too. I love my work. As soon as my stint is done here at the BBC I should be able to have more time to get some long awaited projects completed. Look for old and new artwork to be posted soon.
Did ya see Les Toil commented my page?
How nice was that? All I need now is John Romita, Todd McFarlane, Luis Royo, and Vallejo and I'll be in heaven. Is it just me or am I the only artist that thinks Picasso sucks?
Is that sacrilege? Not a big fan of Van Gogh either. Give me Raphael or Michelangelo any day. Heck, I even like Thomas Kinkade. I've always thought of abstract artists and those that display paint splatter as posers. Not enough discipline for classical works. Just my opinion. I wish I could charge 50 thousand dollars for a red canvas. Just bullshit! Would I get away with it? NOPE!
