It's Monday - time to showcase some new words for your creative pleasure. This week we have two candidates:
1. FLUGAH: noun - the feeling when one first sits down after being run off one's arse for many a day.
Wordsmith: Amy Ruttan (learn about Amy's new book release at her site)
I'll let Amy provide an example of application in the comments, if she likes.
2. DARK-THIRTY: noun - half an hour after sunset
Wordsmith: unknown Source: pseudodictionary.com
Here's my stab at it: "Ella felt it was very daring of her to stay out till dark-thirty to watch the fireworks, given how often her mother invoked the urban legend of children who mistook rocks for balls in the twilight and broke their feet."
where a budding comedy writer marks milestones on the road to dropping the 'apprentice' portion of her name

I love the Dark-Thirty expression. And I still giggle when I see Amy's word. I need to sit down and come up with a few.
Isn't the entire premise of the blogosphere that one's opinions are so valuable that they cannot be withheld from the general and defenceless public
LOL!! Holding my sides...
And the bit about the green koolaid and aquarium gravel - ha ha ha ha ha!!
