new year.

as it's the new year and it's time for new beginnings and new resolutions and all of that blah blah, i have decided to attempt to post on this blog in a more regular fashion. that's right. i'm not going to dive right in and say i'll post daily...that'd be far too difficult for me and i would fail immediately. rather, i will say right now, for all the world (or you 5 or so readers) to see, that i will be attempting to post weekly. on this blog. ok? good.

now, for my word of the day:

primogeniture \pry-moh-JEN-ih-choor\, noun:

1. The state of being the firstborn of the same parents; seniority by birth among children of the same family.
2. (Law) An exclusive right of inheritance that belongs to the eldest son.

seeing as how i'm not a son and i'm sure i'm not coming into some secret inheritance, the only part of this word that has any meaning to me is the first definition. i am a senior by birth among the children in my family. although i'm not quite sure how i'd use this word in a sentence yet, i now know a new word. and, as an effect, so do you. in the future i will try to make my postings a little bit more awesome. in my haste to post, i realize i lack a certain je ne est quoi here. next time will be better, i swear.

huzzah to new resolutions.
