Last Some

last-someUpdate: How could I have forgotten GRUESOME!

It became burdensome to continue these blog posts. When I first started doing them, I felt blithesome, mettlesome and adventuresome, playfully leaping from post to post (as it were) in a frolicsome and lissome (or is it spelled “lithesome”?) manner; now, the task is irksome. To try to document and define every word that has a “-some” suffix is a fearsome task, sure, awesome in its complexity. These posts seem to mock me in a meddlesome manner: I think I messed it up bunglesomely.
