summer is over, finally

thank goodness, i sure was getting tired of playing beach blanket bingo with breast models and curling fifty pound dumbbells while sprinting up sand dunes. if you are like me and missed out on much of the internet this summer, the robot guestblogger that wrote all my posts for me these past few weeks has kindly recapitulated all of the words of the word summer series.

today’s creative writing assignment: write a short story employing the following 19 words from the preceding 19 weeks of summer:

1. acyrological · incorrect in use of words
2. lobcock · a blundering fool
3. crwth · an ancient celtic violin
4. pfuiteufel · an exclamation of contempt or disgust
5. tenebrio · one who lurks in the dark
6. agathokakological · composed of good and evil
7. ville lumière · an exciting modern city
8. sythe · one’s pilgrimage on earth; the course of one’s life
9. pruno · in prison, an improvised alcoholic drink
10. transclout · to alter appearance by wearing ill-fitting clothes
11. kill-cow-fray · something made up to terrify
12. quia timet · an action brought to prevent possible future injury
13. catoptromancy · divination by means of a mirror
14. gyte · mad, out of one’s senses
15. sanguivorous · feeding on blood
16. whiskerandoed · heavily whiskered
17. triacontaëterid · a period of thirty years; a festival occurring every 30 years.
18. eirmonger · a dealer in eggs
19. schlimazl · a consistently unlucky person

while the word summer series has terminated, autumn brings with it the exciting season premiere of f-words and—as i’m sure the suspense has been gripping you through may, june, july, and august—the cliffhanger involving a bike ride, a salami, and a fanny pack will finally be resolved.
