How’d he spell his name?

I’ll answer the prompt, though I doubt it will be all that exciting. The last thing I searched for online was a name. Captain Barbosa’s name, in fact. There’s not much that’s more embarrassing for a writer than a misspell… I hate it when I do that!

It’s bad enough that I am a punctuation fairy, but everybody already knows that’s my thing. Plus, having a name like Wiwohka means that I, more than most, am used to mispronunciations, misspells, and butchered shortcuts… I get it! Names are important, I think, and how one spells their name is part of their identity. There’s that!

Anyways, I have to use Google quite often for name or phrase spell checking, as I happen to be a fountain of useless information; filled with pithy phrases, old wives’ tales, and well used sarcastic quips!

LOL… I just realized that I’ve actually turned into an old wife telling tales, for real!

Oh, and a cookie master! Can’t forget that accolade, can I …

Noop!!! Nunya!!! Not yo bitness!

Sorry, that was an extremely childish response to an extremely intrusive and ridiculously probative inquiry being asked by nothing more than a rolodex style revolving question prompter. With all the undesirables out there, looking for a way into my site, I’m just not about to hold the door open for them.

Just sayin…

I will offer some free cookies…

Food for thought?!

You may be thinking that I would write about my study habits, research for my books, or even food recipes for a Ninja Foodie. But No! Of all the times to ask this question, WordPress waits til now for this prompt.

I was not out on the web searching for the meaning of some deep insight from study, nor was I working on a writing project, or baking some delectable treat from reading a Pinterest article.

If truth be told… I was looking for a cheat code… yup folks, a cheat code for my computer game. See, my cat died! He was not just a cat, but a Great Panther from over near the Black Galleon camp.

Long story short, I went to clear out a pirate ship with my husband and brother in law, and I brought Brodie, my Panther. I have gotten quite attached to this kitty, as I have had him since we began this adventure. I should have known better than to take him in somewhere that these two go. Soooooooo……… Brodie got stuck up in the Captains Quarters and by the time we got to him, he was dead.

I know it was just a game, but I actually almost cried when he died. In my inconsolable grief, I entered into Admin Mode and resurrected my fallen companion, as any good game cheater would! Once I had my compadre back, I needed to bring his stats back up to match his previous numbers… no more death to my feline!

And this is how I found myself out on the great world wide web, asking Google for a cheat code that would level up my big cat, before I went to bed last night. Thanks for calling me out WordPress!

In honor of Brodie, I am making everyone steak for breakfast. It is his favorite, though he prefers it raw…
