Word of the...

Yeah...

Word of the... is


Chalk


I like it. I like it less in captials. But I still like it. Chalk. It's a weird one. Like talk with a different start - obviously - It's nice to say.

Ch.. all.. kuh or even Ch.. awl.. kuh. If you are feeling extravagant. It's not really the extravagant word type.. though it has got distinct middle class paint colour tendancies these days. It's nice to imagine a rather posh teacher saying it. She's posh, but wearing red lipstick and matching nailvarnish. Of course, she makes you bang the dusters.. no euphamism intended.

Chalk's useful.. not the nasty screechy kind on old painted blackboards.

well damn. there goes life interrupting what was going to be a nice reminisce about different kinds of chalk and the effect they have on the back of your neck.
People just arent nice. Ok.. some people.

le sigh.

I like the word chalk and chalk itself. Not sure why, strange isn't it? I have enjoyed catching up here. It is good to 'meditate' about words, it gets those creative juices going.

I love the - non dust - type, its got a sorta waxy coating that isnt really there. and the snap noise it makes when.. snapping it. Yeah. Im weird!
