Wordzzle

As always click on the button to see the guidelines. And don't forget to go to Raven's Nest to see all the others.

This week's Ten Word Challenge: Incensed, sidewinder, bogus, conniption, Haz-mat, conniving, customize, perforated, zeal, rolling off a log

And for the mini:
abstemious, chlorophyll, origami, cheerleader, dung beetle

Yes, Phrog was content. As content as a dung beetle on a pile of horse manure. He was the leader of the Salamanders. The Sisters had left for cheerleader, school and were taking origami101 and cheering everyone in their chlorophyll colored cheer-leader outfits They were leading an abstemious, life. They needed to do this as if they got drunk they were afraid that the dragons would come after them and would capture them and force them to dance the dance of the incensed, sidewinder. That was a bogus fear as the dragons would never do something like that. They would have a conniption fit before they would do something so "off the wall." Being gentle creatures they loved everyone.

The sisters, Sallyie and Saydie put their haz-mat suits on. They put their heads together (in a conniving manner) as they attempted to customize a response to Phrog. He seemed content but they knew he was headed straight for a perforated ulcer if he did not mitigate his zeal for rolling off a log and pretending that everything was fine...when it wasn't.


Next Week's Ten Word Challenge will be: plumber, autograph,
Florence Nightengale, a chill wind’s a blowing,
watering hole, sleek, triplets, backwards, surface
tension, parrot


And for the mini: Free estimates,French fries, carpet,
Braille, silver-tongued bandit

"As content as a dung beetle on a pile of horse manure."

that conjurs up a picture! LOL

Well done with the words, they weren't easy this week.

The wonderful thing about really awful sets of words is that they bring out everyone's genius. That first sentence just makes me happy and the rest of the story was just as good. I like "the dance of the incensed sidewinder" too. Well done. I had an awful time coming up with anything this week.

I wonder about whether dragons are really such gentle creatures as advertised here or whether Phrog is trying to keep them at bay by being nice. He needs to learn that dragons don't do 'nice' very long before they get impatient with it...

well done!

Sallyie and Saydie sure are conniving.

I would love to see the dance of the incensed sidewinder! Phrog should not be lulled into a galse sense of security - the dragons are creatures of somehwat mercurial temperament.
