Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I found the stamps! They were in a plastic bin.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Apparently there is a threat of snow showers tonight.

I'm mostly blanking on that music video (rock) where they display title cards and one of them is "It is cold where someone you love is." I have at least tried not to be the cold person for anyone who cares about me, but the air conditioning at the new job makes that harder.

OK, I have had found the stamps, had a meeting, had a job interview, and gotten $60 taken off my Comcast bill. Not bad so far, but I guess I should do some actual work....

Now tagless for your comfort.

I had my mammo. Got to see my doctor. She reminded me that I'm fat.

Today can end anytime.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Does anyone have an opinion on "predominantly" vs. "predominately"? It's confusing me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Does anyone have an opinion on "predominantly" vs. "predominately"? It's confusing me.

The former is a word. The latter isn't. The way to remember is the former has the dominant root. ("Dominate" is a word too, but it's a noun, not an adjective.)

Oh, never mind, they're both words.

Because books.

Does anyone have an opinion on "predominantly" vs. "predominately"? It's confusing me.

The second is just a variant. But I like, and use, the first.

The former is a word. The latter isn't.

Not according to Merriam-Webster.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Does anyone have an opinion on "predominantly" vs. "predominately"?

Yes.

We should just pick one and use that.

"Predominately" is my fave.

I've never heard of predominately!
