Word of the Day

I've seen, and been inspired by, many "photo a day" projects, so I thought I'd try one myself, with my own little grammarian spin: create a photo using a Word of the Day gadget on my Google homepage for guidance and inspiration. And what better day than January 27, my thirtieth birthday, to begin such an undertaking? (Okay, maybe new year's day, but I was too lazy to bother then.) This project is also to help keep me thinking and creating images the way DGrin's Last Photographer Standing contest has challenged me to do--a challenge I've found really enjoyable and creatively stimulating. Wish me luck (and perseverance) in this endeavor!

    Apr. 29, 2008 (Day 94) Gimcrack: a showy but useless or worthless object I love Chococat (yes, it's from Hello Kitty), and I love this clock. It is the most useless hunk of cheap plastic, but I love it anyway. The cute thing just cannot keep time accurately. Within an hour of setting it to the correct time, it will be running 10 minutes slow. Even with fresh batteries. For some reason, I keep the batteries in--maybe to make it feel a little less useless and sorry than it really is.I figure the time it reflects is simply Sanrio Time, and Hello Kitty World just marches forward a little more slowly than ours.
    Apr. 28, 2008 (Day 93) Maelstrom: a large, powerful, or destructive whirlpool Added to the list of "Crazy Stupid Things I Know Better Than to Do but Do Anyway":- Hover with expensive electronics and lights over an unlidded blender filled with waterAnything for art, right?
    Apr. 27, 2008 (Day 92) Posit: to assume as real or conceded; to propose as an explanation; to suggest I think all those missing socks just got tired of being paired off with socks exactly like them and eloped with different patterns. I bet they're all doing "The Hustle" at another sock reception right now.
