The Word: Hilasterous - The Definition...

Last week I was somewhat absent from the bloggy blog world of memes, carnivals, and my hobby as Princess Comments-a-Lot. If you read my previous post or follow me on Twitter you knew what was going on. (The constant Twittering was therapeutic.) 

Anyway, I am back full force this week…hopefully. I will go back to New Orleans tomorrow to see the hemotologist/oncologist to check the progress of my white blood cell count on Tuesday morning. I pray it has come back up. I really do not want to spend another four days there. With the passing of Ethan Loney every one of my little complaints seem so petty, so I will not dwell on these minute issues. I was told to expect a few bumps the first year, and hopefully this is all it is.

On to this week's Meme-Go-Round with Supah - here's the assignment:
What is YOUR WORD?
a WORD or CATCH PHRASE that you made up 
or stole borrowed 
or adapted or whatever
a WORD or CATCH PHRASE that you say all the time, 
use in an unusual way, 
makes you laugh  or feel clever.
a WORD or CATCH PHRASE that you've redefined
or that has come to mean something different 
because of your kids or your job
Tell us your WORD or CATCH PHRASE, 
give us the DEFINITION and ORIGIN, 
and use it in a SENTENCE or story, if you prefer.

Not too far back I was tweeting or blogging, I can't remember, and I was telling a story about something physical. I know it must have been about my dancing or athletic ability because this is the perfect term a coined to describe it.
hil◍as◍ter◍ous  |hil|'as|tur|əs
                                               adjective
                                              1. describes something extremely amusing that also causes 
                                                       unfortunate circumstances
                                              2. describes a catastrophe or unfortunate consequences that 
                                                       simultaneously brings laughter to those involved in the
                                                       event or simply spectators.
                                                  - These events can include my attempts to overtake a 
                                                    rolled bale of hay by running then leaping over it.
                                                  - They are also included, but not limited to my 
                                                    dancing, running, throwing, lifting, bending over, 
                                                    working-out, anything requiring hand-eye coordination, 
                                                   or choreography.

WordFUL Wednesday: ♥

Babe, ya did good!

My poor hubby goes through the ringer on birthdays, holidays, and special events because I don't like typical girly stuff outside of clothes, shoes, and handbags, which he would never dare pick out. Also, I tend to leave friends and family high and dry when it comes to figuring out what it is that I want for a gift. My previous Valentine's gifts in the past from Zac have been random pieces of jewelry; however, this is my favorite Valentine of all, believe it or not. I am not a jewelry and flowers kind of girl, so when one of his friends asked me for gift advice for his new girlfriend this weekend I promptly warned, "I am not the girl to ask." 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will say this, my favorite gift EVER was actually jewelry. On my 25th birthday, I had been in the hospital for two weeks two hours from home with no clue when I would be able to return home or if I even would. My family gave me a great lil party right there in the room. Hubs gave me an silver oval locket with "Love Z" engraved on the back and b&w pics of him and Finn on the inside. I was hysterical.

Wordful Wednesday is for those of us that like to showcase a photo(s) but that just can’t seem keep our mouths shut about it (them).
