I just submitted an assignment for one of my online classes. I realize now that I used "purr-fect" & "purr-sonally" in there!


O-M-G! If my prof didn't already think I'm nuts, she sure does now!


Where do you use "purr...." words?

Under the cats, mostly.
yes.

100 purr-cent.
As purr the usual
Purr-fect
purr-haps
purr-sonal (purr-sonally)
And I believe the correct term for a cat's staff is..... purr-sonel

I gave a little baby (human, that is) a blink-kiss the other day, then realized what I had just done.

Where do you use "purr...." words?
A large purrcentage of the words I use.
In the morning, I go to the purrcolator to get a cup of coffee.
I then look to see if my cats are purrceptable. My purrception usually finds them.
They are usually located on their puurch, where they purrchance can see birds.
I then head into my office and turn on the stereo; I like music with lots of purrcussion.
I glance out my office window at the purrennial flowers that are doing well.
It is then time to purrform some work so I dump the purrforations out of the hole puncher and spend a purriod of time trying to reach purrfection with my job as a purrmanent webmaster and writer and photographer.
After the coffee, I start feeling puurky because by this time the cats are asking me purrmission to get up on the desk with me. I tell them that is quite purrmissible and up they come.
I then get on The Cat Site (after doing a little work, purr se.) I then try to think of a purrplexing question for the KatKwiz question of the day.
There are no other purrsonnel in my office, just me and the cats.
From my purrspective, that is the way it should be. I do not have to purrspire with toil and I do not have to purrsuade my boss that something is right.
So then I purruse what others on The Cat Site have to say.
So, to answer your question, I use words that start with purr purrvasively.
I hope that this does not purrturb you or make you think that I am a purrvert.

Hopefully your prof is a cat-lover as well. Maybe you'll get bonus points for the "purr" usage!
