This is how it works: Comment on this entry and I will give you a letter. Write ten words beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation what the word means to you and why, and then pass out letters to those who want to play along.

Storyboards - what I do all day
Simpkin - the name of a lesser sort of djinn thing in Bartimaeus which I'm reading when I have a moment here and there
Scientist, The - the Coldplay song curently on iTunes (there's a convenient coincidence)
Shanty for the Arethusa - The first song on Her Majesty by The Decemberists, whose 'la de dum' part is very similar to the one in 'My Mother Was a Chinese Trapeze Artist.' It starts with an ominous chord and a scream. Few songs are that cool.
Silly - Dead Ringers, That Mitchell and Webb Sound, The Skivers, The Consultants, I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, Lee and Herring's Fist of Fun, etc etc.
Suburbia - where I grew up.
Syndrome - villain in The Incredibles and also a word in its own right. Significance for me? Dunno, but it popped into my head. I probably have a few syndromes...
Significance - A word I need to keep in mind when choosing 'S' words
S.M.K. - Good ol' buddy o' mine in North Carolina ... good grief, it took me this long to remember your name started with an S. I really am losing it.
Sanity - Someday I shall have to try this out to see why everyone's so crazy about it.

Er. It's been a while since I posted in here. I think someone taped over the 'Post on LJ!' switch. With masking tape or something, y'know, like when you paint? Walls, I mean. I'm going away now.

Weeell, I haven't drawn anything since I last posted, because I am a bad person and also a board zombie and scatterbrained. :P

In compensation I will give you the letter B.

December – The most depressing month of the year. Cold, monotone-ish in its grayness. A few highlights here and there, but not enough to make up for the . . . (see following)
Depression – Hearing the same dull intonation time after time, no matter what the words say.
Down – A direction one heads while depressed.
Despairing – To be without hope, kind of like you feel when beginning December.
Disconsolate – Without cheer, unable to get yourself out of a depression. Also, differentiating between foreign missions, as in: “No, the Spanish are not in disconsolate, they are in datconsolate.”
Dark – No light, no shining moments; just dull despairing, dull, dimness.
Desolate – Emptiness; a dark, despairing, depressing December for example.
Dull – Sameness in repetition.
Decrement – A slow, inexorable countdown to zero.
Donkey Riding – The kind of happy, fun song that makes you feel like it is not December anymore.
