You got more great photos to go with all those fancy schmancy words.

I hope you're not trying to influence Mrs. Matlock so she gives us a vocabulary test...because, if that happens....we'll be meeting just outside the school yard after dismissal.......

Did you check out that tattoo on the pregnant girl? Wonder what that will look like after she gives birth??

Aunt Amelia was here.
But do to her back hurting,
which limits her time on line,
she's leaving this simply Hello.

But love that not-yet-given-birth one!

Jenny said...

What a cool, cool post! I have been using some of these words myself today in comments! I wonder if we're using the same website?

It'll be our "secret"!

Loved this entertaining and nifty stop on my journey through Alphabe-Thursday's Letter "N"!

A+

Jo said...

I loved these words ... well some of them, could have done without Natricine ... too creepy for me ... i dont like the snakeys at all!

A lot of good N words that aren't exactly part of my every day vocabulary, but if I used them in a sentence every day...

Pondside said...

I haven't managed to use any of those words today, but I'll have to get up off my nates, powder my nose (admitting that I'm rather nasute) and head off for a nutrition break (okay, dinner) where I'll try to stump my tablemates with these fabulous N's.

Brenda said...

Fun post! Enjoyed all the new words!

Christy said...

loving all these words. i can't wait to use nates and nictate in a sentence! something like, don't you nictate at me, you look like a horse's nates.
ooh---how fun!
