Z for ZYGOLOGY



Zygology is a rare term that describes the general science of 'joining and fastening' (source). I couldn't find anything more about that. Not sure what we're joining or fastening in zygology . . . it reminds me of the word zygote and suddenly this whole definition gets very disturbing. 



Another zippy z_ology word


Zoopsychology: A branch of psychology that studies animal psychology.



Well that's it folks the 2013 A-Z Challenge is now 
DONE!







I just want to take a quick moment to thank you all for being such awesome A-Zers, for stopping by, commenting, and sharing a laugh or two. And a special thank you to all you guys who continued to comment these last few days while I was gone  (✿◠‿◠)Unfortunately,  I didn't get a chance to visit my blogging buddies and new followers as much as I wanted this month. I'll make up for it soon.

I also want to thank everyone involved hosting/organizing this year, It's been one crazy month, but I'll have more to say about the challenge in my reflections post. For now I'm taking a little break--I'm still on vacation! And yes, I did bring my laptop, wip(s), books, and editing with me. Good or bad I am still a writer, even on vacation.

Ze End!

:D

  3. Hi Elise ... have a fun rest of the vacation - the brain keeps working though. Your take on the A-Z was great fun .. and real sense of learning at times .. not sure about the Yoghurtology .. or the combination with a zygote.

    Happy days and see you around soon .. Hilary

  7. Isn't that funny? I automatically pack my writing stuff too for vacations. I guess that's when you know it's not work to you.

  9. I fell apart a little with visits to blogs. The end of April quickly got absorbed by kids. But we made it.

    Enjoy your vacation!

  14. I know an animal behavorist. I guess that would make him a zoo-psychologist.

    Love the Gif.

    Hope you're enjoying your vacation!

  15. Enjoyed your theme and learned something along the way! Hope the rest of your holiday is fantastic.

    I always think about and take notes with my writing on vacation. Fodder material, and you never know what might turn into a post.

  16. Congrats on finishing the challenge (especially with a vacation tacked on at the end)! I own a few pets that could use a animal psychologist - it's all about the crazy at my house! And I love that gif of Dean - just another reason for my deep abiding adoration of Jensen.

  19. Now that you mention it, z words do tend to be a little disturbing. Congratulations on making it through A to Z.

  23. Hey Elise!

    That first one should be 'Zipperology'! Hey, what about me at the alternative alphabet anarchic challenge?

    Okay, stop crying, Gary. Seriously, I have a lot of admiration for you and all of those who subjected themselves to that challenge. Just relax now and enjoy the rest of your holiday, um vacation! :)

  24. yeah, zygotology was what i thought of, too!

    well done, el... careful of those florida sharks... land and water

    also, beware what're called 'crane flies', nasty buggers, look like giant mosquitoes... and the types of ants i just heard about on the radio, at least two kinds of which are fire ants, and another illegal alien-type decimating local florida insects, including rare butterflies :(

    enjoy the sun; safe trip home....

    1. Thanks wuff! Crane flies don't bother me, they are totally inoffensive. The fire ants however, I'll keep an eye out! I've been stung by fire ants before and it hurts like a b****!
