A poser
Back again, still not dead (:-)
Spent a very nice weekend with P, after not having seen him in over a month and was really, really glad to see him. How the seasons have changed though, since it means I arrive at his in the dark and almost leave to come home in the dark. Winter is icumen in..........
My cupboard is pretty bare at the moment, I appear to be eating myself out of house and home and not replenishing my stores. So either I'll end up eating very sparsely and healthily for a while, or else I'll end up groaning home under the weight of extra staples!
To the point; Dan at work put a little poser forward, to which no real satisfactory answer has been obtained. You can describe a solid as being dense, that is, per unit volume it has large mass. What is the opposite of this quality? I put forward rarefied which I've heard used in the context of gase, but consulting a dictionary seemed to suggest this not to be quite apposite. Any ideas, bloggardes?
It's gorgeously sunny outside and I really feel like going for a ride. Getting on the bike in the morning is not fun because of the surface rime on the roads and the excessive amount of time I have to wait for the engine to warm up (even to the extent that I'm totally paranoid the whole way to work that I'm about to stall!). I'm still worried about engine failure.....but on the plus side, my insurance premium has dropped to about a third since I've racked up another year's no claims......and what with the massive bill for the electrical repairs, the enormous phone bill for the broadband services in advance and the forthcoming 'leccy bill (once corrected), I'm quite happy to be saving a bit of cash! Think this weekend may be the time to go discuss investments, once I've hoovered my hair trimmings up off the floor......living alone and not having visitors does make one incredibly lazy when it comes to housework, though living in filth is not conducive to self-respect; mens sana in domo sano, anybody?
Laters; I'm kinda at work (:-)
