Glorious, glorious Friday.
More glorious than a sundae with a pool of caramel at its base. More exhilirating than inhaling two packets of Splenda right up ones’ nose. More giddy than a clown, with a red nose, with a shaved poodle, shoving itself into a phonebooth too small for even one oversized grandmother with shopping bags. More powerful than, well, absolutely any other day of the week according to recent studies performed by University psychology students in a double-blind survey.
It’s more better, people. It’s more better.
Today’s “Words For Your Enjoyment” suggestion hails from WFME longtime reader Kathleen who writes: “Can you write about how life would be better if we incorporated the “turn the page” chime from books of our childhood into our adult lives?”

If high schools can do it, why can’t we?
That’s why today marks the 3rd WFME Reunion for all you readers out there. The ones who were here in the beginning (the upper class), the middleclassmen and the frosh readers. And while I didn’t send out any save the date cards months earlier, in the world of blogs, at least one day digital notice (i.e. yesterday’s mention in text) should have been received by everyone and anyone who traversed these hallowed WFME halls over the last few years.
I can only hope most of you are planning to attend the reunion being held in today’s comments section.
What have you been up to? Are you married now? Did you end up losing your job, living in a box, fathering some children and then becoming a multi-millionaire as you worked yourself back up the corporate ladder? Or has your life, since you left WFME behind, simply stayed the same? There’ll be some alcohol in the back to loosen you all up and some kick-ass music from back when we all hung around here (circa 2004-5) as well as that “one person” who makes a total fool of themselves (which today, won’t be me).
Don’t be shy. Let everyone know the 411.

And another Friday is upon us.
This being the case, I would like to welcome you to yet another edition of “Words For Your Enjoyment” — where real people who really read this blog actually submit real e-mails to me via my real contact form and then I take said real ideas, sift through them in a realistic way, and then choose which one I really want to write about. Often, hilarity ensues. Other times, nothing much comes out of it at all.
Which is a perfect segue into today’s suggested topic.
New WFME vocalizing pal Merel writes: “I want to ask whether this week for Words For Your Enjoyment, could you write a post that has no topic? I reckon you should be able to manage that!!!”

There have been overwhelming requests for a lock of my hair lately.
That is why, for your enjoyment, I will be giving away a lock of my hair to the person with the most impassioned, poetic, humorous and witty comment on this post. If you can communicate in your words the immense joy a lock of my hair will bring you, your family, your neighbors and your post office buddy Hal — you could end up with your own personal hairy keepsake of yours truly, right in your personal mailbox. Then again, you might not want a lock of my hair but you find someone else’s impassioned plea for wanting a lock of my hair to be so inspirational that you might want to let me know that out of the goodness of your heart that you think they should receive part of my hair instead.
Either way, today I will give away a lock of my hair. (via Priority Mail)

Someday, when this planet is extinct, the WFYE posts won’t matter much.
But as long as Friday continues to exist and as long as you continue to exist and as long as I continue to exist, there’s a warm and fuzzy nature Friday’s got glowing around itself that makes me want to just scoop it up in both my arms, wrap it up in a sweatshirt and take it out for dinner at my favorite sushi restaurant. And as long as I feel that way about a day of the week, well, you should too.
Which has absolutely nothing to do with today’s subject matter.
