the word 'metafoetus'.
I have to be up at 6 am tomorrow.
I'm afraid the really pretty shirt someone got me for my birthday won't fit right.


I tag you.

The passion of new eve.

Surreal, angry and so beautiful.

I WANT.

NOW.

Oh and before I forget, I just got a hold of wayward girls and wicked women.

Have you read it before?

Schez - He is most excellent, is he not?

AmitKen - I'm glad you like it. It's a good word, isn't it?
:)

Megha - I haven't, no. Which reminds me...do you or do you not have a copy of The Sadeian woman that is supposed to be mine?;)

What is a metafoetus anyway?
And why do you have to wake up so early? No-one deserves that kind of evil. No-one.

Did you wake up at 6? Tell the truth. Anyway the shirts that don't fit aren't worth it.

i actually googled metafoetus u know...
and came right back to your blog ;-)
i say thoughts that cant be googled are the best kinds...

metafoetus? What could that be?

A couple of days back I learnt a new word called "superfoetation." It was in Beckett's book on Proust. These literary types!! :(

Damn, I still have it on me and it looks new too.

Maybe I must fall back on the good old snail mail option! ;)

Aishwarya said...

The Poodle's Friend: Because I am greatly mistreated. Oh, how I suffer. As for metafoetus...I've already said too much. Sssh.

Mithun - I did! I really did!
And shirts that don't fit seem to make up most of the..er..shirt population, unfortunately.

Ishita - Thought that can't be googled are so startlingly rare that the snity of the googler must inevitably be called into question. ;)

Alok - somehow, "foetus" affords endless opportunities for new word creation, doesn't it?

Megha - Snailmail would be excellent, and I would be most thrilled. :)

Which principle would that be?
