Do you suffer from XENODOCHEIONOLOGY.........

AH yes we have reached X on the great A to Z jolly (or not so Jolly) and there are times when you think DAM why have I done it like this; but I have. So I asked the dog “Do you remember what we did in the practice run” and he said “ Well it’s your own Bxxxxxxy Yxxxxxx xxx Sxxxxh Fxxxxin Idxxxxxxxious Xxxxx Fault for trying to be a XXXXXXX total smart xxxxxxx xxxx x. So I not xxxxxx helping” ………. AH, I think he said something similar last time.

Since then however, dad has built a Xystus (covered walkway for exercises) in the garden for the dog, paid for with Xu (former monetary unit of Vietnam) and even hired an Xystarch (ancient Greek officer in charge of gymnastic exercises). But the dog attacked him with a Xyston (short pike used by Greek heavy cavalry), the dog has a reputation to maintain and can not be said to be Xenodochial (Hospitable to Strangers) although he does suffer from Xenodocheionology (the love of hotels), so do I as it happens as long as they are posh ones.

In School the wood work teacher said he would help (wood help HAH HHAHAH HAH hahhahha h) and had us learning xesturgy (the process of polishing) after first doing a bit of Xyloglyphy (wood carving). The woodwork teach also told us he has spent many a happy hour studying Xyology ( the study of Wood), buying some lovely bits of wood from his local Xylopolist; and showed us his prized Xylometer (instrument measuring specific gravity of wood).

Esmeralda is not happy as it is raining STILL, what has happened to the British weather this month . She was moaning to the headmaster about it but he said she should remember that us humans are XEROPHILOUS  (unable to survive drought) and need rain. But Esmeralda said she was a lover of xerothermic (dry and hot) weather and hit him with her umbrella. 

Dasypus bellus Armadillo

Back at home after school dad had made a steam powered xenurine (species of armadillo) which he had scurrying up and down the Xystus and mum is making Xiphias (swordfish)Pie for tea YUM, and it is still raining.

  1. The X word in your blog title starts with a Z sound. Do you know Y? Oops, I meant, why? Its because a long time ago the letter Z used to be an X (notice the resemblance?) the top and bottom flat parts of Z used to be hooked on in the middle as X, but X and X went out partying one night, and something happened to X (the second one, not the first one), something very unhappy that no one wants to talk about, and second X turned into Z. It was sad, they even made old X new Z go to the end of the alphabet, much to the relief of Y, who was tired of being last.

    1. I would not be at all surprised if old second X now new Z had be fraternizing with N but realized too late that he is just a bit shorter than N in most fonts, a fatal error. And as you point out ended up at the end of the Alphabet.

      Strangely Mr ESB this is not entirely what I was expecting in the comments to X but it is a point well made by a fellow member of R.A.Ts

  4. The xenodocheionology word has inconsistent definitions on the internet. Some of them have the word 'love' and some have 'lore'.

    1. Yes I did notice that but I felt I have a little bit of artist licence on my blog. Well I hope I do, but just in case.


      Please note some events, facts, people, monsters and aliens depicted in this blog may deviate slightly from reality a bit.

      Thanks Mr ESB for reminding me to add some small print somewhere sometime.
