On Flustration.

Flustration- what does it mean in our life and how do we use it. Actually it doesn’t have anything to do with that-I misrepresented the truth.

But first a story.

Created a word when I was in High School and my mother was dying with cancer and Medium was not invented yet. And that word was smigil a cross between a smile and a giggle and it is the last word my mother said to me.

Not really and yet I got your attention. spare me the false claps please:

“We really love you writing.”

“What should it be this week? Alpo Supreme?”

Told my girlfriend at the time about this word just in passing never thinking that she would remember and then went off to commit suicide. I’m still here although no one seems to really care about that. She brought me a nice gift in the hospital and I met another woman that I really liked, the older woman with a young kid and my mother was having none of this.

Years later I was reading a post from her husband and I noticed that he used my word smigil.

And then I created a word for Chicago-Spring-Sprinter and the Cardinal used it as well without paying me any royalties.

This is a free story right so what are you complaining about-just mumble and heal. Got it. It ain’t Vacuuming in the Nude by Peggy Rowe; however, if you smoke enough pot or drink more beer it probably will be.
