The Oxford Comma: Word Nerd
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2011/06/word-nerd.html
Tuesday, June 21, 2011. Every once in a while I'll get a word stuck in my head. I'm askin' ya' with my mind! I would try to work it in just to get it over and done with, but, unfortunately, no matter how late I stay up writing tonight I don't think troglodyte. Is going to slip nicely into my 19th century young adult novel. Pity It's kind of cute. Maybe in snerk . . . . Can you tell I'm putting off writing? I've just got one line of dialogue that will.

Monday, December 6, 2010. Friends, readers, countrymen, lend me your ears . . . Okay, okay. So I haven't posted in a long.

The Oxford Comma: So long Nebuchadnezzer!
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2011/05/so-long-nebuchadnezzer.html
Saturday, May 14, 2011. After years of studying the scriptures and attending Sunday school, I admit, I felt some trepidation upon boarding a train to Babylon this evening. As I discovered between stations, this was warranted because I was headed in the wrong direction. Moral of the story: read your scriptures and you won't get turned around in NYC?

The Oxford Comma: I think I'm in love
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-think-im-in-love.html
Monday, June 20, 2011. I think I'm in love. I found this Etsy artist. Through a facebook link from one of my classmates the other day and I just love. All her prints. They're, dare I say it, simply oh-so-cute. If it weren't for the fact that I still haven't hung up the pictures I had framed in December. Very charming prints. I especially love Rabbit Girl, those braids! June 22, 2011 at 1:10 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pittsford, New York, United States. View my complete profile. The Boy and Me.

The Oxford Comma: The Maine Event
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2011/06/maine-event.html
Monday, June 6, 2011. It took some thinking to figure out how to top Memorial Day 2010 and its memorable Plymouth landing re-enactments, but I finally settled on Maine. Though I guess going out of state this year means I'll have to go out of country, next . . . Good thing Canada's close. Monday we headed back South, stopping at the beach in Hampton, New Hampshire for a few hours of sun and mingling with the singles. Then it was back to the big cities and responsibilities. Gary D. Schmidt, am I right?

The Oxford Comma: January 2011
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 29, 2011. I feel you, friend. Four big snows in four weeks. A few more and I just might feel as strongly as she does. I know it starts slow, but stick with her. My favorite is right before 3:45 and 4:07, although she closes strong. Thursday, January 6, 2011. I was left utterly speechless. The flat bold colors, the poor animation, the rocking eighties soundtrack, the "special" outfits, the seemingly drug-induced premise . . . I'm weird. I grew up watching the likes of Rainbow Brite.

The Oxford Comma: The Atlantic Is Lovely this time of Year
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2011/07/atlantic-is-lovely-this-time-of-year.html
Saturday, July 9, 2011. The Atlantic Is Lovely this time of Year. Anyhow of the three proper beaches I can really remember going to (in the America's and for non-historical reasons)* , Hampton is my favorite so far. Flat Stanley concurs. You should always concur.* *. MRM Alex's concerns were so far advanced, I had to make a wager with her for her to even consider swimming in the ocean. If she saw a shark with her own eyes, I'd kiss our home teacher. Luckily, no sharks were seen. Catch me if you can?

The Oxford Comma: July 2010
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 27, 2010. It is a truth universally acknowledged. Back when we got channels like USA, my roommate and I saw previews for a new show called "Covert Affairs." It's about a new female agent who works as a spy- okay, okay operative- for the CIA. That sounds strangely familiar, no? While thankfully there was no mention of aRambaldi and the main character has yet to demonstrate severe daddy issues, I noticed some similarities to my favorite female spy on television. It seems that all female spies:.

The Oxford Comma: May 2011
http://purpleislands.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 14, 2011. One Olivia, Two Olivia . . . . I mean what's not to love? The heartwarming Huxtable family? Real life problems dealt with with considerable aplomb? The mind-boggling popular attire of the late eighties and early nineties? Bill Cosby at his best, interacting with a host of adorable five-year-olds? The use of the phrase "boom boom"? Drama, comedy, and romance wrapped into a tight 22 minute package? Admittedly, I've never watched the show). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm going to Si...
