48 words for 48 weeks
« on: September 06, 2010, 01:20:17 PM »
This thread was created to commemorate my first injection back in October of '09.
Being a wordsmith by trade, my intention was to document my course of treatment,
one week, and one word at a time.

It seems only fitting to re-post this today, as today is my first day post-treatment.

My hopes for each of the 48 weeks:
1) finished
2) over
3) completed
4) ended
5) concluded
6) massacred
7) terminated
8) defunct
9) obsolete
10) invalidated
11) annihilated
12) wiped out
13) destroy
14) abolished
15) detonated
16) obliterated
17) extinguished
18) dissolved
19) eradicated
20) exterminated
21) rescinded
22) eliminated
23) divested
24) disposed
25) kaput
26) discharged
27) carried out
28) let go
29) canceled
30) annulled
31) rejected
32) set free
33) stamped out
34) remove
35) assassinated
36) decimated
37) pink-slip’d
38) devastated
39) purged
40) ruined
41) demolished
42) flattened
43) released
44) liberated
45) excluded
46) done
47) accomplished
48) Well done… stick a fork in it

Best to you all,
-Hop

You can now safely claim to be an abolitionist!

Hop, I'm so very happy for you, way to go, my friend. You are so tough! Thanks for being part of my life through this wonderful forum.

rjs, hang in there, you're doing great! Good thing there's a dungeon here just in case, eh?  ;) Although I hear banarep is going to redecorate! Doh! I hate camouflage!

Hop, fantastic job.  Well done.  Congratulations on the end of tx.  Can you believe it?!

Jimmer, rjs, you're moving right along.  Stay with it, you can do this too.

As of last Friday, I am at week#40, "ruined".  I like the sound of that.

It's great to have the site back again.  Thanks to all who worked so hard to bring it back.

Pete

Pete,
It's nice to have your descending number finally start with a 40, huh?
Congrats!
