addendum to the dunder dictionary
new updated “dunder word” additions:
Tumped :
apparently i used this word as a child. if my dad pushed me over (which he would do, along with other less gentle forms of joking) i would say to him: “Dad! you’re going to Tump me over!!”
Tump: to knock over, push down, fall over by someone else’s doing; also includes falling over on one’s own, as in “If I walk around on these stilettos, I will surely Tump over”
Yummth Degree :
i have a major crush on Johnny Lee Miller. or the way he portrays Sherlock in Elementary. not sure which.
mmmm…delish. so i said to my sister while watching him be his delightfully yummy self, “i love him to the yummth degree” . pretty much covers it. he’s ridiculously sexy.
Yummth Degree: the infinite degree of yumminess allowable known to man

so very awesome … part 3
there used to be something in town called “the Clothesline Project”. admittedly, i havne’t looked into it to see if this is a nationwide thing, or just something here in Lansing. every year during the East Lansing Art Fair (held over by Michigan State University) the Clothesline Project would go up. people would write whatever they wanted on tee shirts, or paint a picture, and then these shirts would be hung up for viewing. most of the ones i saw were for empowerment or healing; people trying to deal with cancer or AIDS; someone recovering from alcohol or drugs; a victim of domestic violence or rape. these shirts saying “I Am Powerful” or “I Can” or “Love Makes the Difference” – whatever the message, these tee shirts strung up on a clothesline had a powerful impact on me every time i saw them.
this art installation -though perhaps not empowering in the same way – is a beautiful piece of work, and at the point i have taken the pictures, it has withstood the weather beautifully.

i don’t know what it says about me, but this is one of my favorite pictures, and one that i feel represents “me” most of the time. moody. atmospheric. out of focus. slightly askew. hmmm…well, i guess i DO know what it says about me
