Lets See Where This Takes Me . . .

Hmm. Have been in a mellow mood all day. My life seems on an even keel, but I am not sure what revelation came over me to cause such a feeling. Perhaps the little bit of exercise I have started doing, has awoke some inner part of me. Could be. Who knows. I like the feeling, hope it stays around for awhile, I could use some eveness in my future.


Watched the movie "27 Dresses" earlier, predictable, but cute, "feel good" romantic comedy. I'm a sucker for that type of film. Another "feel good" romantic comedy I watched recently was "Catch and Release," I didn't think the acting was all that great, but the storyline and the characters were and more than made up for the acting.



Learned a new word today, confabulate. I heard it used the other day and the context in which it was used led to believe that perhaps it was not really a word, just a mispronounciation out of ignorance. Today I got out the old dictionary and what do you know it is a real word.

confabulate
verb
1.
unconsciously replace fact with fantasy in one's memory
2.
talk socially without exchanging too much information; "the men were sitting in the cafe and shooting the breeze"


Enough.
