A blog about blog

Strange things keep me up at night.  No… I am not talking about the monster under the bed, the strange creaking from the other side of the house or my wife’s snoring.  I am talking about those bothersome questions that itch at your mind like a pestering fly. 

Last night’s fly was the word blog.  I mean what exactly does the word mean?  I have my name on a blog and I still don’t know the definition.  After a restless night sleep I did the only reasonable thing I could think of… I swatted that pestering flea by looking up the definition this morning. 

A blog (a blend of the term web log)

I didn’t see that one coming!

So a blog is like the Brangelina of the web.  Or maybe the Bennifer of the internet. 



I love words like this!  I mean who has time to say all the words when you can just blend them together.  Instead of telling someone how obnoxious their fake house plants are I can simply say, “Dude, ugly flants!”  How easy was that? 

So in honor of the word blog I have decided to smush words together to make one.  Here is my list:

Spext:
Those people who speak like a text.  OMG I am so LOL right now!

Drone:
People who drive and talk on their cell phone

Jandy:
That’s me and my wifeJ Hi Honey!

Shamditioner:
Shampoo and Conditioner in the same convenient bottle!

Bunk:
All that irritating gunk I find in my library books (See previous blog!)

Bair:
My hairstyle at the moment.  Half bald-Half hair. All Bair!

Chofa:
Those huge oversized chairs that can seat an entire family.

Bairy:
Can you say back hair?  That guy is soooo Bairy!

Clone:
For when the word Cell Phone takes too long to utter. Would you answer your clone!

Vegizza:
Vegetable Pizza just doesn’t flow off the tongue as well. 

Swair:
My swivel chair at work! I swear by my swair.

Stressay:
The stress I am feeling right about now about writing this critical essay


I can’t wait to tell people to read my blog about smurds!

I will leave you to figure that one out.
