Recently, I've been asked quite a bit, "What do you do for fun?"
The true response would be, "I play with words." But I don't think most people would understand this. It's more than reading a good book at the coffee shop in the sun. It's more than sitting at home with either pen and paper or computer for my writing.
I play with words daily through my conversations with people. Twisting and turning word definitions, the context of a conversation, and placing cultural signifiers into a game of:
"Did You REALLY Just Say THAT!"
Let me give you an example from last night:
Me: (Asking one of the various questions I have running through my head every second.)
Josh: (Answered without actually answering the question.)
Me: (Silent and contemplative.)
Josh: "I like it when you're QUIET."
Me: (Laughing hysterically.)
You had to be there.
But yeah, I play with words.
