Hi everyone,
I haven't wrote in this for a while but I am restarting again.
There will be an evolution in this blog. It's my blog, or should I say it's my z-log, so lets mark this down as artistic freedom on my part.

From now until about September, I will post every-day with a Today I learned that will be a "word of the day." This word will be either a common word or something more abstract. This word may be something that has to do with my day or it may be desultory.

Throughout this, I will attempt to post words that I feel are almost an onomatopoeia. I will post these words with an asterisk "*" preceding the word. I know that an onomatopoeia is often reserved for words more like "buzz" and "slithering," but in my quest to learn about 1,700 words by August (BTW that's about 10 words a day until August 1st) I have come across some words that I feel sound like what they are.

This blog follows a similar set of rules mentioned in my initial post (here). The rules are mostly the same as before.

1. Don't ask me about the origin of my posts.
2. NOTHING I post comes from visiting a website particularly to find an information to post on here. In other words, I will ABSOLUTELY NOT visit a website for the sole purpose of learning something to post on here. If I make an observation or have a question I ABSOLUTELY WILL visit a website and will try to include the URL to it.
3. There will NOT be anything repeated twice on purpose.
4. I will try my best to post at least one thing, no matter how stupid, EVERY day
5. I will NOT post anything I learn that can directly harm/bother/or is about someone in particular.
6a. If you feel like a post is brought on by you there are two possibilities: You are wrong (more likely) or you have truly taught me something about the world ONE, thank you, TWO, you don't have to tell the world about it in the comment box :)
6b. If you happen to know the origin of a post or were there with me when something happened, refrain from putting it as a comment. This blog is not about YOU. Just keep it a secret between me and you.
7. I reserve the right to delete stupid comments that break rule 6b.
8. Feel free to comment about how you feel about any post. Sharing is caring. Post my blog anywhere you want.
9. I can use some words I learned in a previous day to describe the current day. The word does not have to have been learned on the day it was posted, it can be a word previously learned but relevant to today.
10. I will SERIOUSLY TRY, for at least until August 31, 2013, to post SOMETHING every single day. This time my goal is to NOT back-date.

That's it for all the do's and don'ts...this is my zlog, I donno why you are reading it, but enjoy.
