The letter N 01/27/2009
 

Stacy from Stacy’s Random Thoughts has a new idea that's groovin’  around the blogosphere.  She provides you with a letter—you select words that begin with that letter and blog about it…  Well, I know that there are probably more rules, but I forgot them (imagine...), and now I can’t find her original post—so what the heck—since she assigned me a letter, I’ll just go for it!

 

N…  N is one of my favorite letters—it begins my name:  Nicole (okay…duh.)  But N is a much more important letter than we might give it credit for at first glance… I mean, without N, we wouldn’t have nepotism…  niceties… And don’t forget about NOPE—what would we do without NOPE?   Without N, Noggin would be oggi, and nice would be ice.  Without N we wouldn’t even have non:  nonsensical, noncommittal,  nonny—how would I describe hubbs?  

We wouldn't have nonillion that’s 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (written numerically).  What would come after 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999? Not nonillion...  Sure, there are some N words I could live without, like nobody and nothing. We don't like to hang out with nobody, and who wants nothing for Christmas? And admittedly, I wouldn’t cry without niblick, although hubbs might disagree…

So without further adieu, here is my list of N words that strike my fancy.

N is for nautier… Nautier just seems, well, a bit nautier than naughty…  How about naughtiest?  I’m saving that one for you-know-who.

N is for near-wreck…  Explanation really needed?

N is for never.  Eh hem… a little angel’s favorite word—never, never, never, never…

N is for noon—Of course, it’s always noon somewhere…

N is for nosh—Noshiness is next to Godliness—right?

N is for nipperkin—I just like the way it sounds. Nipperkin, nipperkin, nipperkin, nipperkin.

N is for noodle…  I like noodle because you can add a word to it for effect “noodlehead.” Plus, it’s just funny…

WeNis—okay, you caught me, wenis starts with a W, not an N. Wenis is the rough skin that bunches up around your elbow— Wenis--*hee hee*

What would we do with out N?

Ad there you have it!  A ot-so-relevat post about a very importat letter.

Learned something new today--"nosh".

How about "knees"...oh, wait. That just sounds like it starts with "N".
