I love words. It's kind of geeky, I know, but I really don't care. Without a decent vocabulary, the nuances and subtlties of every written and spoken art are lost. I don't just mean that dusty copy of Moby Dick sitting on your shelf somewhere that you never got around to reading. I mean classic and current literature, news, theatre, television and film. So I'm offering you one word or term everyday (or so) - that's my promise. What I won't guarantee is that your English professor will always approve of my choices. Language is everchanging. It is both the riverbed and the water flowing over it. We constantly add new words and give old words new meanings. I'll try to dip into a little of everthing and hope you join me.

Inconsistent

Me. As in: I am an inconsistent blogger. There's your definition folks. I'm finding it incredibly difficult (substitute 'impossible' if you'd like) to sit at the computer for any stretch of time. SO, rather than giving you a new word / term every day or so, it's been - let's just say- ages.

Inconsistent - (adj) 1. Marked by incompatibility of elements (an inconsistent story - the facts don't 'add up') 2. Not in agreement with each other. 3. Not consistent in standards or behavior. Bingo. There I am. Always online, and then NEVER online.

So sorry. I'm fixin' to repent. Let's see how it goes.
