			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I didn&#8217;t discover this word on my own. I happen to be the proud owner of a One-New-Word-A-Day desk calendar. The word for Monday, January 18, 2010?</p>
<p><strong>perspicuous</strong> <em>(adj): plain to the understanding especially because of clarity and precision of presentation.</em></p>
<p>Ha! Wouldn&#8217;t that be a delightful (AND TOTALLY MISLEADING!) name for my blog! Perspicuous. I sometimes see these sweet little blog names in my Google Reader&#8211;<a href="http://babybangs.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Baby Bangs</a>, <a href="http://thesimplewife.typepad.com/the_simple_wife/" target="_blank">The Simple Wife</a>, <a href="http://bearsandbelles.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Bears and Belles</a>, <a href="http://goodrumfive.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Raising Rascals</a>, <a href="http://snoodlings.com/" target="_blank">Snoodlings</a>, <a href="http://jewelsinmycrownsomeday.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Jewels In My Crown&#8230; Someday</a>, <a href="http://www.blessedtreehouse.com/" target="_blank">Blessed Treehouse</a>, <a href="http://breathinghisjoy.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Breathing His Joy</a>, <a href="http://boomama.net/" target="_blank">BooMama</a>, <a href="http://thebigmamablog.com" target="_blank">Big Mama</a>, <a href="http://jodyhedlund.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">On the Path</a>, <a href="http://1photoperday.com" target="_blank">1PhotoPerDay</a>, <a href="http://lifeswellspring.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">My Heart&#8217;s Wellspring</a>, <a href="http://drewdeniparker.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Musings from Mommyland</a>, <a href="http://www.chattingatthesky.com/" target="_blank">Chatting at the Sky</a>, <a href="http://sortacrunchy.typepad.com/sortacrunchy/" target="_blank">SortaCrunchy</a>, <a href="http://findinghimbigger-elizabeth.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Finding Him Bigger</a>&#8211;and wish I had a cutesy blog name. (And oh my word, if I left you out, it&#8217;s only because all the link-making IS KILLING ME and I had to stop, not because I don&#8217;t love you. Seriously, I want to bang my head against the wall now.)</p>
<p>Perspicuous. Simple to understand because I did such a clear and lovely job of crystallizing my thoughts into word form. Writing in a way that is not random and/or confusing and/or blabberly. Mmmm&#8230;</p>
<p>Feel free to start referring to my blog as Perspicuous. You know you want to. &#8220;So, I was reading over at Perspicuous the other day that&#8230;&#8221; Nice, huh?</p>
<p>And now a question or four for you. I&#8217;m intrigued.</p>
<p><strong>1. If you have a blog and love its name, please share with the class a.) your blog name and b.) why you picked it/love it.</strong></p>
<p><strong>2. If you don&#8217;t like your blog name, what would you change it to if you could?</strong></p>
<p><strong>3. If you don&#8217;t have a blog but decided to get one someday, what would you name it?</strong></p>
<p><strong>OR </strong></p>
<p><strong>4. If you like to read blogs but have no plans to have one yourself ever never, what is the neatest blog name you&#8217;ve ever heard?</strong></p>
<p>Have a positively delightful week!</p>
<p>p.s. Thank you SO much for your sweet, encouraging, prayerful comments on yesterday&#8217;s <a href="http://www.marlataviano.com/faith/please-break-my-heart/" target="_blank">pour-out-my-heart post</a>. I kept today&#8217;s post light on purpose while I sort out some stuff. But I can feel God molding and squeezing, and I&#8217;m so thankful.</p>
