Snooty arrives with a vengeance... sorta

One must wonder, my Good Big Cats, about the arrival of the word ‘Snooty’. Several times now, the Kougar has seen the *according to Mrs. Giggles* juvenile Jonas Brothers’ type of word ~ used in excerpts from other romance novels, and in the Golden Heart entries moi is currently judging.
Words cycle or re-cycle like any fad or fashion, and are usually up-dated to fit the current times of what is hip or chic, or ‘whatever’. For a simple example ~ ‘Cool’ as in hep cat cool, was popular when moi was in fifth grade. The word became popular again, in a big way, during the mid-nineties, in the midwest, as another way of saying ‘awesome’. Cool, as a modern expression, has continued in the lexicon and is now spelled ‘kewl’ in the cyber realm, at times. Or in other creative ways. Like *cooooolll*.
So, has ‘snooty’ made a dramatic comeback??? Or, will the Snooty Tight-asses of the world make every attempt to squelch and deride its usage?
Moi? See this innocent furry mug? The Kougar is greatly tempted to use *snooty* even more often in her stories... being a rebellious and naughty kind of kitty girl...

Now ~ FIRST! just for the big cool cats ~

Happy Courtship on another Earth

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues...

Part 57 ~

Sylva swung her pointed gaze toward the gun. “How dangerous is it here, in your world?” Zeke gave her a reassuring glance, then picked up the gun. “I can protect you. I’ve heard...” he carried the gun to the holster, sliding it inside, “stories from other woman who have been mystically brought here, who said their worlds were more dangerous.” He pivoted toward her, and her breath whooshed inward. Good Lord, he was passion-addictive. “Was it dangerous on your Earth, Sylva?” She nodded yes. “It was getting worse everyday. Corruption is rampant. You never knew which enforcement officer to trust.”

Zeke scrutinized the fear, lurking like shadows, in her eyes. “Enforcement officers?” he inquired, slowly approaching her. “Policemen. Cops? Maybe like a Sheriff here?” she answered. He frowned slightly. “We used to have Sheriffs and deputies. Before the revolution. Now everyone protects their own.” He took up her small-as-bird hands, seeking to comfort her and damn certain wanting to touch her. “If there’s a major disagreement or a serious crime, we convene for court. Everyone present and not directly involved, has their name thrown in hat. Traditionally, the youngest person draws for judge and jury. Statements and evidence are presented.”

Volcano’s Angelic Forecast

Angelic Forecast ~ XXV

“So many are in need of prosperity,” I say to the Cherub.
He nods beside me, gazing out over the rolling emerald land. Where we are, I don’t know. But it makes me think of Ireland.
“In the New Aquarian Age the real prosperity,” he says, “will be in how people relate to each other. And how they live together in their communities.”
“Do you mean the better we can relate to each other, the more opportunity for prosperity?” Soft winds brush my arms and float my hair. However I see no rainbow. No pot o’ gold.
