Logocentric (adj).Regarding words and language as a fundamental expression of an external reality (especially applied as a negative term to traditional Western thought by postmodernist critics).
Sometimes I just write whatever I feel like. Other times I respond to prompts, many taken from the following places:
Sounds hectic, but fun. The horseback riding was a hit, it seems. I'm glad you've been enjoying your time there. To me the food sounds exotic, and I'd probably eat burgers and fries along with the kiddos.
I've been to Brasilito and Playa Conchal. My review of Conchal? Lovely but noisy and dangerous due to jet skies. I went there by bus but didn't stay at the resort... as you noted: very expensive.
I don't ride horses but I know someone who lives in Manuel Antonio who loves riding her horse down the beach.
I have had roblado (sea bass?) and had ceviche. I usually stick to gallo pinto and casado in the highlands. The resorts cater to tourists.
Glad to read that you walked. I don't think I ever rode in a car in Guanacaste.
My schedule doesn't leave much room for library visit, but I have gone to community meetings in them (discussing road projects and what not). With living in a good sized metro area, the main library downtown has extensive magazine archives I've actually perused to try and track down a piece from The Economist. I couldn't find the article I remembered but found some otherwise worthwhile reads during my archive expedition.
Road trips do make for some great memories. I still point out the spot on westbound Interstate 70 just past the Bunker Hill Road exit where the V-belt on our Ford Windstar departed this life. Walking a mile back to the truck stop at the exit for assistance, I was told to pop the hood and keep it below 30 mph the 30 or so miles to Russell and a repair shop that could likely get us back on the road.
I did, they did, and the memory - as you can tell - is still there.
Oh, I'm quite familiar with the Goo Goo Dolls and Colbie Caillat. Did you know Brighter Than the Sun was co-written with OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder? Yeah, just had to drop my two cents
These were originally posted in "Invalid Post" , but I'm also including them here too for the purposes of the review component of "I Write in 2018" . The prompt for this month's "Cards Against Authors" was a card that says "Problems are not stop signs, they are ____". Please see the "Cards Against Authors" forum if you're not familiar with the rules of Cards Against Humanity.
1. Problems are not stop signs, they are actually green lights on a one way street you're driving down in the wrong direction. (15 words)
2. Problems are not stop signs, they are those "hill with a steep grade" signs you see two seconds after you realize your brakes are out. (18 words)
3. Problems are not stop signs, they are speed bumps. Easy to overcome, as long as you don't go so fast that it ruins your alignment. (18 words)
