Today I GOT a GIFT on G day. A GIFT on G day! When I found it on my door step, I GLEEFULLY GALLOPED around the home singing, "I GOT a GIFT! I GOT a GIFT! I GOT a GIFT! From DOROTHY MENOSKY!" Then I sang it a bunch more times as I opened the packaging. Twenty Something Daughter didn't really look up from her email, so I just kept singing to beat the band. So this is what I GOT! Listen UP, blogger pals! I GOT a novel called The Lover's Dictionary, by David Levithan. All told through dictionary entries, written in ALPHABETICAL ORDER!!!!! I'm GLOATING about this GENEROUS GIFT, which is perfect for me as I plug along each day, looking for material. G words in Levithan's novel???? Gamut, Gingerly, Gravity, Gregarious, Grimace, and GUISE! Next August we should probably write novels on our blogs, using this GRAND tome as a model text. Or we could do this in November, for Write a Novel in November????
Thanks, GPM! I love GIFTS (and you) VERY MUCH!

You're welcome. When I read it I knew it was destined to be yours.
I like the way the author makes you think about why he chose the words he used.

I appreciate the grandness of gifts and you should be zealous about such a gift. Talking about a blog challenge to write a novel, on the other hand, is overzealous.
You have some excellent gift-giving pals, LH.
This post makes me happy. I like that you are very grateful...
It's Wednesday. I wonder what kind of H's will come out of the woodwork today.
The book sounds fab. Let's read it!
What an awesome gift! I think I'll put it on my reading list, too.
That sounds like a great gift!
Awesomesauce! I'm in for any and all future challenges that may be spurred from The Lover's Dictionary.
that is GOOD luck
That dm is a treasure, indeed. Jw
MM, I think we could do it!
Your fondness for gifts is one of the things I think of when I think of you.
Of course I mean that in the best posible way: how excited you get about the gift, how much you want to share the gift-i-ness with others, and how you venerate the gift-giver.
All good. Another G word.

Hey MeM,
There's really nothing better than a gift.
I've been missing you doll.
