After a year of lots of bumps (yes, balanced by some happy times), I think I’m ready to make some changes in my attitude this coming year.
So, I’ve decided to delete the “dis” from my life…
I intend to have a -combobulated 2010, definitely. I’ll also look forward to being -illusioned, -pirited, -jointed, and, clearly, want to be -tracted. It’s about time I was -mayed and -appointed by things happening to me. I’ll surely be -couraged and -turbed. Without that “dis”, wouldn’t we all like to be -concerted, -arrayed, and, of course, -gruntled by life in 2010.
And while I’m at it, I think I’ll get rid of the “per”, as well. I’ll be happy to be -turbed and -plexed this year.
May as well lop off the “be” in 2010, too. If I have a chance for a life of -wilderment, that would be great. I can be -fuddled, -mused, and, with a smile, -deviled.
But, I will draw the line at eschewing the “de-“ this year.
I’m not thinking I’m ready to stop being deranged and demented.
Yee HA!!!

Well, as long as you’re not -petrating a -aster, then have at ‘er!

oooh! if you drop “dis”? that means you will -obey…. heh, heh, heh… NOW i’ve got you, my pretty!

I see you’re going to be doubly -turbed 😉

I started off by looking for a ‘like’ button on this post. (Clearly am spending too much time on Facebook). Hope it is indeed a ‘lightful year.

Daisykins – well said, good woman!
What a fabulous post, Gnurus – I saw this name in a ‘Herodotus – the Histories’ recently, but have packed it away in my storage boxes so it is not at my fingertips. I think he was a Sycthian, Athenian or Persian important type.
It’s telling how those words to describe negative states are not generally meant for positivising revising, but I like what you’ve done with them and I too hope you have a year unperturbed and undistrubed by combobulations of the dis variety, but instead of the BLISS variety!

Sounds like 2010 will be de-lightful!

Here is to a truly enfranchised 2010!

And one in which you get ‘layed often 😉
