Best 09: Day Seventeen

What is the best word or phrase that encapsulated 2009 for you?

I can’t seem to settle on just one word, but I’ll settle on one letter of the alphabet – The Letter T.

Traumatic

Turbulent

Tragic

Tempestuous

Telling

Tearing

Trying

Tiring

It’s not that I have anything against The Letter T. But I’m sincerely hoping that 2010 utilizes other choice words in it’s arsenal. Like:

Tender

Tantalizing

Titillating

Tale Telling

Teaching

Teeming

Tempting

Hell, why not throw in some Tantric for the hell of it.

And positive words from the rest of the dictionary are welcome, too.

  1. i hope that 2010 leaves you thunderstruck with tremendously terrific things.

  2. Word. :) Or letter, I guess.

  3. Emma- your post is thoroughly thematic!

  4. I hope 2010 brings you all of those good “t” words… truly.

  5. sorry for all of the bad T in 2010, I add my voice to the chorus hoping 2010 has more of the good T!

  6. Touchdown! (Your post, that is. Not that I hope you have a touchdowny 2010. Unless you’re into bodycrushing sports. In that case, I hope you DO have a touchdowny 2010!)

  7. I hope it’s nothing but thoroughly tremendous times for you in 2010.

  8. Jeanne: Hee hee. Clever. And thanks :)

    VBC: Ha!

    Julie: Yes. And I’m discovering a theme to the comments too! ;)

    Ally: Thank you. Truly.

    Lindsey: Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Gwen: I haven’t been obsessed with body crushing sports since Elway retired, but I like them, so I’ll take the touchdown theme into 2010 – as in, reaching some goals :) Thanks, chica!

    Rebecca: I am completely out of t’s other than thank you. Happy, happy! And to you as well.

  9. I hope it’s a through-provoking year for you (but full of pleasant thoughts, of course). I’ve really enjoyed your “Best” series!

  10. …Any particular reason for T?
    Regardless, I hope your 2010 is tops. :)

  11. I love how you solved my conundrum about finding just the right word or phrase! Kudos!

  12. Angie: Thank you so much, chica! Good to see you here :)

    Yi Shun: Thanks!

    Julie: My pleasure ;) And kudos right back at you.
