Ok, Words

Ok, folks, truth time. The reason I am a bug about words is that I misuse them intentionally too. In a sense of whimsy I reassign meanings to established words. My favorite was turning the word loom into luminous (or perhaps loominous) to describe a woman who was much taller than me at 8 years old. I don't think my mom ever got over that useage. But creative as I am with words, I am uncomfortable with words like "surge" and others of that ilk.
