Alyssa's ramblings...

This is true. There are ten words that I've really liked for quite a while now (most of which I've picked up from 'Word of the Day' emails), and I decided to use them all in a short, three sentence story. Forgive me if it doesn't make much sense. :o)

I thought of him as an old roué, but soon found this persona to be merely a Potemkin village. As he revealed the jeremiad that was his life, (a story which was once esoteric information), I quickly discovered that he was a quixotic man of a favonian nature, who as a youngster, was quite often caught up in pernicious behaviour. The night lingered like an ubiquitous fog, as we, two deipnosophists, continued to coalesce over coffee.

I doubt that anyone will want to go through all ten links to the meanings of the words, so here is a version with the meanings replacing the words. If you know what I mean.
