3. “The comma, perhaps the most versatile of the punctuation marks, indicates the smallest interruption in continuity of thought or sentence structure. There are a few rules governing its use that have become almost obligatory. Aside from these, the use of the comma is mainly a matter of good judgement, with ease of reading the end in view.”

Word of the day:

Ok.

It has to have a period after it.

It has to be said as a sentence of its own.

I recently had an experience with someone who was having a little difficulty with navigating the world of their PC. As I walked this person through their challenges, I heard:

Click. Ok. Click. Ok. Click. Ok. Click. Ok. Click. Ok. Click. Ok. Click. Ok.

With each click of the mouse, they said, Ok.

So, Ok. Use it recklessly.

Before I began my quest for fitness, I was lazy. (I’m still kind of lazy…)

One of the fruits of that laziness has actually paid off on the Weight Watchers end of things.

I drink my coffee black.

Long ago, I drank my coffee with a shitload of cream and sugar.

Then I moved on to milk and sugar.

Then I did Atkins - 8 years ago - and killed the sugar and went back to cream.

Then back to the milk.

And finally, I took the big jump.

I moved into a place by myself. I hate grocery shopping. I never had milk in the house.

I’m lazy, so part of hating grocery shopping is about that. And some of it is about how I don’t like getting run down by crazy people in the store. And part of it is that I just don’t really care. I’ll eat out.

So I never had milk in the house.

I started drinking my coffee black.

It’s like a whole new world.

A recent post on onesentence.org made me think back to the days when people thought I was someone I am (nor was) not.

It struck me that the two of you looked so similar and I wondered if all homophobes looked the same.

It’s usually the other way around. It’s usually the queers who all look alike, or the folks of color.

At least that’s what it seems like based on the number of times people have thought I was Beth Schwartzapfel in my life.

My doppelganger perhaps, but do short hair, short stature and a pair of glasses really twins make?
