Am still reading and trying to read the entire Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary.

And I’m supplementing it with entries I get from other sources, such as Oxford, Collins, and others.

blowze

n. a slovenly or sexually immoral woman. [of dialectal English originally]. Example sentence: “Keeps a blowze and beats his spouse.”

Dictionary! Hoorah!

Now I’ve gotten two in there: wolf-rat and badabing!

And one of the things I’ll need to do is get all my credits on one transcript. These people have many programs, including a degree program in English language, which might well serve my goal to be lexicographer.

Which was “BadaBING!”

It wasn’t in the dictionary, but I’ll think they’ll be including it very soon.

However, it’s still not a paying job, and I still don’t have my credentials.

Got to do that financial aid form. Tomorrow I start. At least I’ll start, early after breakfast.

Partridge’s Concise Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English: from the Work of Eric Partridge. Edited by Paul Beale. Abridgement and new material effected to the Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English first published in 1961, then re-published in 1989. New York: Macmillan Publishing Company.

I’ll start to review the course catalogues again, for GSU, AASU, Southeastern Tech, and Savannah State.

I sent it through Yahoo Hotjobs Resume maker.

Now I should look into programs in universities which may help me with this goal.
