bunkum: gatvol
January 4, 2009
Man, it’s been ages since we’ve played a game here at the Grit. I think it’s time to resume the weekly ritual.
Here goes:
- Post a definition for the made-up word above your comment, or use the word in a sentence.
- Then leave a made-up word for the next person.
- Have fun!
Starter word: gatvol (thanks, Anti!)



































waaaay to early to think that hard, i’ll be back later to play :)
ha! nobody wants to play today! :)

Sipping on some coffee was good after a long night of randomness but yet a good morning start.
