No, really. You can say, "Here's a myriad of crap for you to read" or "Here's myriad crap for ya."
The English language. It's not for everyone. Ooo, hang on. That reminds me, I wrote a terse email to People Mag online, and I want to see if they responded.
Crap. They didn't.
For the record, People Magazine, who I'm sure checks in with my blog all the time, here is how to determine whether to use "everyday" or "every day":
"I wear my everyday clothes every day." Got it?
"Every day" is when something happens daily. You are talking about WHEN something happens.
"Everyday" is when you are talking about something not so special. It is an everyday occurrence that happens every day.
Please do not make a lowly copy editor such as myself have to teach you these things.
Yeesch.
Anyway, can you tell me what this tree is, and why it's trying to kill me?
These trees are everywhere. Especially in my back yard, which is where I took this photo. They are bloom bloom blooming. And guess what? When I get within 17 feet of them, my throat closes up to the width of a pinhole. I want to take a toilet scrubber and rotate it in my nostrils, they itch so bad.
The verklempt me. WHAT ARE THEY, THESE ENEMY TREES?
Also, too, we have continued on doing things to our house, which is apparently what you must do when you buy a house, cause you're not poor enough already. We took out the brown carpeting from the back room, and we were gonna paint the concrete, as we did in our computer room. But my brother-in-law, who is visual, suggested we tile back there instead. So he and Marvin went to Lowe's, which at this point they should just rename Gardensalad's, and picked out tile together, which in retrospect strikes me as a little fey.
Anyway, Marvin got out of bed and started tiling. Cause our brother-in-law skipped town after the tiles were selected. Who will help me tile the floor? Not I, said the brother-in-law.
Who's in a good mood? Who's in his pajamas at 4 p.m.?
And speaking of "Not I," said the wife, I am actually late for a dog park date with my new friend. So I leave you and Marvin in the middle of everything. Smell ya.
