Anacoluthia

i like just saying this one - but it gets better. Anacoluthia is a term for garbled grammatical structure. And an anacoluthon is a rhetorical term for 'a construciton involving a break in grammatical sequence'.

It also sounds like a good name for a very small European nation, probably where everyone speaks in an agrammatical manner. Already sounds like someplace I want to visit. And probably someplace that will quickly turn up on a map of some new fantasy world I create.

Speaking of, I decided to play with Obsidian portal by using it to collect ideas. I can make personal notes to myself on each page about what I stole the idea from, or what i was reading or doing that influenced me. Maybe it will turn into a new campaign world.

Today I am auditioning for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! In keeping with the valorous ideal of honesty, I will say that I really really really want to play Willy Wonka. I don't know what age they want to cast him as, or if I have an animated enough look to pull it off, but I would have ever so much fun. Ever. So. Much. Assuming I don't get sucked into an Anacoluthian Vortex between now and 7-9pm tonight, I'll audition and know the result on Friday.
